Journal Question #3



This next week many Americans will celebrate ‘Halloween,’ a day dealing with the dead. This is a holiday that was once created in respect of the dead, but now is primarily a time for people to dress up in costumes, get candy and share scary stories. In your culture, do you have a holiday around this time of the year? Is this holiday similar to Halloween? If yes, how is it? If no, do you have a holiday that concerns the dead?

I personally don't celebrate the holiday but I do like to have some fun with my friends.

Anyways,

REMEMBER THE DUE DATE: Nov. 3rd at 5 p.m. 10 SENTENCE LONG PARAGRAPHS!!!

Journal Question #2

Photobucket
Courtship, dating, arranged marriages, online dating sites, random stranger; these are all possible options that one has in finding a husband or wife. Are you in a relationship? How did you meet that person? If you aren’t currently in a relationship were you before? Have you not yet been in a relationship, why not? (I (Anna) haven't and I'm quite happy with how I am!) If you don’t want to talk about your love life, then what can you tell me about common ways that people in your country meet the love of their life.

REMEMBER THE REQUIREMENTS - 10 Sentences, Due 10/27 at 5 P.M.

I'm looking forward to what you have to say on the topic!

WELCOME TO NEW AND EXCITING TERM OF CESL 086!!!!

Hello Students!
I know that you are all exciting (or at least should be) about being in writing this term.
If you have had to do my assignments before I should warn you that they are a tad different this term.
You will always find the homework assignment on this page. If you cannot post on your page, or if you have any questions of any kind please post a comment on the homework assignment. (To post on a homework assignment, click on it's title and scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the link that says "Post a Comment").

There will be a homework assignment due every monday at 5pm. Any homework turned in after this time will still be accepted, but there will be a 1.5 point reduction. Also, any homework that does not meet the sentence length requirements will receive a 1.5 point reduction. Each assignment is graded out of 10 points so if your assignment was late and didn't meet requirements there is the possibility that you will receive 7/10 (70%) if your entries content is good.
Also, I grade these assignments based on content. Grammar is not as important as your ideas, so please try to express yourself as best as you can. Be creative and funny, these two things will get you a good grade.

I am available to tutor if you need hep in any of your courses so please e-mail me at ana_lightcap86@yahoo.com

This first question will be simple and will be due OCTOBER 20th at 5pm. It is required to be 10 full sentences long. I could sentences by PERIODS.

Tell me what you did during your break these past few days. Share a picture and even if you were bored the entire time because you missed CESL so desperately tell me what it was that you missed during that time. Have fun with the assignment!!

Note: If this is your first CESL Term tell me about your first impressions of Carbondale so far? How was traveling here?

Hope to hear from you soon!!


Here is a little treat that amuses me. I hope you enjoy it too!!
