ESL Students Visit City Hall, Joplin, MO

Joplin NALA Read's English as a Second Language students began their Friday lesson with learning vocabulary related to City Hall - municipal, city council, city clerk, and  public information officer. Then they practiced writing and saying embedded questions. Embedded questions are a question within a question and are often used because it sounds more polite. Our students then came up with a list of questions to ask during our tour of City Hall such as, "Could you tell me when the next city council meeting is?" We want to thank Barb Hogelin, Joplin City Clerk, for leading the tour of City Hall.
