Win a prize for writing!

Are you thinking of studying law?  Would you like to see your article published in a University magazine?  Would you like to win a wireless speaker worth 219 Euro?  If your answer to any of these questions is "yes", then you should enter the writing contest of the University of Amsterdam with an essay written in Dutch or English.    For more information, visit their website here.

If you decide to enter and you would like advice or assistance, see me (or your Dutch teacher, of course).

FOA Planning

Below is the planning for the FOAs.  Check whether your group is complete and let me know if I have made a mistake.  Check your calendar now.  If you have any conflicts, see me immediately.  After the 31st of March, this planning is frozen, and if you have any scheduling conflicts, you will have to solve them by switching with another group of the same size.

If you are absent on the day your group is scheduled, then your group will have to go without you, and you will get a 1 for your report grade.  For the IB, you will still have to do two FOAs, so you will have to do an individual FOA at the start of year 6.

Keep within the margins of the time allowed for your FOA.  This time includes all video and discussion time.  No more than 5 minutes of video where your voice is not present is allowed per person.
