Hey,

today we first spoke about Chris's situation. Then we watched the 2nd extract of the episode about "the leather jacket".

You can watch it again below:

Here is what we said about it:

Money and Price:

How much is it?
How much is the leather jacket?
   It costs $50.

Chris wants an allowance to save up money. He needs money ($50) to buy a leather jacket.

His sister needs $15 to go to the Statue of Liberty.     need = be necessary
His brother needs $5 to go to the show.
His mother needs $25 to do shopping.
He needs $50 to buy a leather jacket.

Chris's father accepts but he refuses for Chris. He doesn't give him an allowance.

-> His father says = he needs to find a part time job.

Security guard = the hardest option because Chris is skinny and short.
Do some gardening = the easiest option.
Baby-sit = the worst and the most dangerous solution = Chris is gonna kill the babies!!!!

Hi guys,

today you first took a flash test about resolutions and the year 2013. Then we did a recap of what you should know about jobs.

Finally, we watched an extract from the series "Everybody Hates Chris", the opening scene in which Chris has a problem, as usual. Here is what we said:

The scene takes place in Brooklyn (NYC) when Chris was a teenager.

He wants a leather jacket ...  to look cool.
                                                     to show off. 
                                                     to impress the girls.           TO = annonce le BUT

Problem: his family is poor and he doesn't have pocket money / an allowance.

- apprendre par coeur la leçon sur Chris.

Hey,

today we started a new lesson about jobs. We first talked about your training periods, the companies, and the jobs you did.

Then we continued the lesson with possible part-time jobs for teenagers if they want to earn money.

You came up with only a few ideas. We'll see if you can complete these ideas next time.

If you need money, you can:
   * ask your parents
   * get a part-time job
   * steal... (maybe not the best option...)

Finally, we started to comment on the poster of the TV series "Everybody Hates Chris".
