HELLOS and THREE QUESTIONS plus ANSWERS

Hello everybody,

This work is made possible thanks to a cooperation between French language teacher in Dominica, Miriam Gerwig and Guadeloupian colleague, English language teacher in Guadeloupe, Pascal Jarvis.

Miriam works for Castle Bruce Secondary School in Castle Bruce, Dominica, English West Indies.

Pascal works for Les Roches Gravées Secondary school in Trois-Rivières, Guadeloupe, French West Indies.

This work wouldn't be possible without the work of both their valuable pupils in Dominica and Guadeloupe.

This is the first letter of many letters we hope.

Please note that:

a) Guadeloupian pupils will write in English

b) Dominican pupils will write in French

All work will be conducted and done under the respective teachers supervision Inside their classrooms.
