to access the English wants survey (and to receive credit for your homework). Sorry in advance about the scrolling up and down that you'll have to do to log some answers.

Hopefully this survey will help me design activities this year that tap into your interests, although if you are in an IB course, much of what we will be doing is already set by the IB.

Enjoy!
