LET"S HAVE FUN
Submitted by speakup on Tue, 2007-10-02 17:06. Publicsome atmosphere from our classThe main thing when you begin to work as a teacher, is your approach to the kids and to the process of learning. They're very sensitive areas, especially when the kids are of different age as ours are. You have to find a sort of balance. Each of us, teachers ,does it in his or her own way and gives our best. But do we all succeed in that?I realised one thing: You shouldn't be just a good teacher, but also a good psychologist and a good organiser. Very early, in my first year of teaching I realised: THE MOST IMPORTANT IN ALL OF THIS IS TO HAVE FUN.

The Way We Are project
Submitted by speakup on Fri, 2008-09-26 08:20. PublicWe have just begun a new project called The Way We Are. The aim of the project is to make students from around the world closer to each other. By exchanging e-mails, students will have a closer look at evryday life of their peers, their routines, habits, likes/dislikes, their environment and culture. Students are supposed to make Venn diagrams of similarities and difference to their e-pals. At the end of the project, both sides should make a PP presentation of what they learnt.
For the time being, we've got two partner schools; one from Colorado, USA and one from Brazil. Two are still to be confirmed: Kentucky and another one from Brazil.

Our guest from Arlington, WA

Snuggle: Snuggle arrived from Arlington, WA.
Yesterday, a guest arrived in our school. His name is Snuggle and he's a geobear Snuggle arrived well equipped. He brought a little bag, his diary and a pencil to write down his adventures in Serbia, and some gifts (a pack of sweets for the children and a little cup). He must've come by boat, since we found a little boat in the package. He also brought a postcard and some brocures about Seattle, Washington.
