Reading Class Sets from KGRE

It is great to see Clubs using POUCH language activities and competitions as part of their regular meetings. Some Clubs are using the free Reading Class Sets too. One such Club is the English Lovers from Labuhanbatu in Sumatra. Kevin wrote to them recently congratulating them for their fine efforts.

‘And thanks once again for the Feedback on the Reading Class Sets. It is terrific to see that you are using the Sets in your Club activities and therefore we are happy to send you another Reading Class Set for the April 2003 magazine. Good Luck with that as well. I am afraid that we simply do not have the time or the staff to translate the articles BUT why don’t you do that as a Club Activity. Give the Andien article to several groups and let them translate it over a few weeks then bring them together and compare the translations. I think this is good activity to do’.
