Week 0725 - Online Debate

Hello everyone, welcome to my online blog thing. I will try and put something on here every week to help add to the unit we are doing and give you something extra to do in i-lab class.

If you start a blog of your own it is an excellent way to practice your writing, spelling and reading. I can also read and correct it for you and show you areas of grammar you need to work on. The website for creating a blog is http://www.blogger.com/ and you can see an example page from an old student at EF here http://mexicanjourney.blogspot.com/

This week I will put a statement up for debate:

What makes up a family? Does every family need a father/mother figure plus 2.4 children to function? (note: there was a famous survey conducted in the 1980s which concluded that the average family in the US had 2.4 children and the phrase has become very widely used since)
