“The more that you read, the more that you’ll know.
The more that you know, the more places you’ll go.”
– Dr. Seuss –
A warm welcome to all students and teachers!
You have probably read some novels or poems, or parts of it, during your English classes. Or you might have seen some movies that are based on English books.
This all helps to improve your vocabulary and general understanding of this language and culture.
In this Learning Circle of the Global Teenager Project, we are going to tackle your knowledge of English literature in a different way: All participants will join this global classroom for 4 months. You' ll meet peers from other countries, students, and teachers alike.
You'll be working on the same assignments, but are challenged to wonder, question, choose and share in your own way:
In 4 phases you’ll find many ways to learn together about English literature and language, meanwhile meeting each other.
We will find out how different we experience the same novels, poems, and movies, coming from various cultural backgrounds and looking through different lenses.
How interesting that’ll be!
Each group or class in this Learning Circle will post their contributions on their own school page. By using this wiki, email and several social media, you'll get the opportunity to be globally connected and gain more insight into each others’ lives.
It will be exciting to see what kind of English novels and poems your peers from all over the world are reading! Sharing experiences makes it a lot more fun to learn English!
You can find all the information on the 4 different phases in the sidebar, along with some more background information. At the bottom of this home page, you can click on the name of your school to find your school page.
Let's start!
