Welcoming paragraph:

Hello my dear students. I would like to welcome you all to this new experience, first of all
by letting you know that you can always count on me for whatever you need through-out
this process. I am sure we will have a lot of fun and also learn many interesting things.

Methodology:

 As you already know we will be developing our classes online. For which we will
be using the platforms Teams and Ferrum.
 I will schedule meetings every week through the platform Teams.
 I will upload all the information regarding the classes on Ferrum.
 We will develop our classes in 10 weeks. Each week we will work on a different
communicative subject.
 Every three weeks I will share with you on Ferrum a self-study guide, such as this
one, with different activities in order for you to work on autonomously. The guide
is divided in 4 stages.

Stage 1: Warm-up.
Stage 2: Topic presentation.
Stage 3: Practice. INTERACT App
