some 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 Flag Project with Brazil

Our school agreed with the English For Ever School from Santa Branca in Brazil to do the Flag project. We sent them an envelope with our flag and the meanings of the symbols and here is what we received in their envelope.

Skype with Topeka, Kanzas Topeka class
In November 2007 our students, 13 to 17 years of age had a Skype meeting with their friends from Topeka, Kanzas. Before that, we had shared a blog where our students had exchanged the information of their everyday life with their peers from Kanzas. The blogging lasted for about a month and then we agreed upon skyping. That was a real challenge for my students. I thought the conversation would last for a half an hour or so, but, to my surprise, it lasted for an hour and a half. That was the first project of that kind but hopefully there will be more of them, with other schools, of course.
