MAE Student Council Spring 2019

 Welcome to MAE ESL 6.  I have left all the copies for the class on the wooden desk.  This lesson plan has been posted to our blog, Milpitaschat.com.  If you can, find a teacher to help you logon to my computer and go to Milpitaschat.com.  If you can't,that's ok.  Please contact me at jgagliar@musd.org 

 Students read and complete exercises below.  Correct and discuss the exercise, then move on to the next exercise.  Grammar note--I left a handout that summarizes the passive voice--please refer to this handout before you start the exercise.  The students received this handout last week
