tests, not talking, not running. –Carol
I would change:
i would give more merits. if you are a good student, i am giving merits. –Rebeca
I think if you have more games, the class would be more interesting. you also need more time for English class. it would be better if once a month you make something special, and every week the teacher would teach special music. –Jonathas
eat gum in class, play in class, listen to the “12 days of Christmas,” and study more. –Daniel
I would have more songs, books, and more curriculum. and no time when teacher Rachel is not here. –Debora
More music, more review, speak more English, and not speak more in Portuguese he meant for me not to speak any Portuguese in the class). –Guilherme
