Priya and the plumber from TimeTech Insurance looked at her flooded kitchen. She hadn't been to the house in weeks, not since she'd moved back in with her parents to save money. Charlie's medical bills were so high, it was the only way to manage. She'd hoped to sell the house before this but, so far, no one was interested. Someone was coming to look at it tomorrow, and she desperately needed them to buy it. But no one was going to want it now. It smelled like a fish tank no one had cleaned, as if the water had been.

A MESSAGE FROM WENDY Wu
Hi John! Good morning! Hope everything is going well.
This is a video I took while hiking on the Cabot Trail in NS. It is very beautiful, right? But right now, the leaves on the trees have almost all fallen off. Yesterday, there was a little hail and the first light snow.
I live here, but I miss you all so much. I miss the time when I studied with you and others. Hope to see you again. Have a wonderful day!

Why do teachers assign homework?
Susan Baker (of the International TESOL College) believes that completing teacher-assigned homework in ESL classes can be beneficial in three ways:
Maximizing Speaking Time: Since adults often have busy schedules, assigning homework allows them to practice and reinforce language skills outside of class. Completing exercises at home enables them to focus more on speaking during class periods.
Review and Reinforcement: Homework provides an opportunity for learners to review and consolidate the material covered in class. It reinforces vocabulary, grammar, and language concepts, helping learners retain what they’ve learned.
Empowerment: By taking responsibility for their own learning process, students may feel empowered. Homework encourages self-directed study and motivates learners to engage actively with the language. Remember that the key is to assign homework judiciously, when necessary and relevant to the lesson objectives.
