Hi folks,

welcome back to school… we’re going to start our new topic on Friday.

here you can find everything we’ve got to work on this semester. Part of it is the book “Brave New World”. You all got an email two weeks ago and you should have bought the book (Cornelsen edition like before) and read at least a part of it. In two weeks I want to start with the book. You must have read it then!

So, see you on Friday and enjoy your last days of the summer vacation.
