reflection 1

We started our class late this term because of class changing and schedule timing.

We started to practice summarizing and making our blogs and post our work in to the portfolio; also we had to interact with the article and discus some of the main articles like the North African bustards and the police night patrols.

We also learned how to eliminate unneeded words like dates and names and to get the main idea of the passage , and after that we summarized the desert milk and the desert survival articles based on the skills that we learned during the first few weeks since the beginning  of the term.

And in the last week we learned how to use BibMe before the beginning of the eid holiday.

After the well is dried out they still use it for direction and it’s still named after the man who dug it. The Bedouin used milk from sheep and camels as a substitute for water
