2. Greece debt crisis (euro-zone crisis)
3. War in Libya
4. Occupy Wall Street Movement
5. Kim Jong Il’s death in North Korea
AndreasF Ashland added:
6. End of the Iraq War
And we discuss the Top 9 political events of 2011 (according to American people from usnews.com)
1. Shooting of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords
2. Arab Spring
3. Killing of Osama bin Laden
4. Repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell
5. Occupy Wall Street
6. GOP presidential race
7. Greece debt crisis

Hi Anatoly, I was going through my students POST and came upon yours. What an excellent way to build your vocabulary by talking about experiences.
ReplyDeleteYour Blog gave me the idea of having a class to just talk about experiences.
I love the plant picture made by your daughter just as much as I enjoyed the information about lost luggage.
Until my next POST, this is Priscilla with SEE
