    I keep looking for authentic materials to create activities to practice the grammar structures in the videos. Also, we need to check which ppts we have already done.

    As planned with MR we assigned the body parts video for HW, however, I didn't know that half of my class was not going to be in school on Monday to review the HW and I was not able to do the class activity as follow up. So, instead with the students I did have in attendance, I reviewed the HW, some opted to watch a different video because they said they couldn't find it on youtube. I played it in class, we finished the notes then played Simon dice to review the body parts. I will have to postpone the class activity - draw a student and label the parts for Thursday. :(
    So, I need to address the problem of when the videos are not available? Can we put the link on moodle?
