What's your opinion? (Blogsite which was designed for students aged 13-15) #1 (permalink) Sun Sep 30, 2007 16:47 pm   What's your opinion? (Blogsite which was designed for students aged 13-15)
 

I'm an English teacher in 'gimnazjum' (secondary school) in Poland. Two weeks ago I created a blogsite which was designed for my students aged 13-15. The purpose of it is to encourage them to write in English and put this language into real practise. Ten of them have already decided to join the blog and to write four posts a month. (some of the posts are mine, signed Krzysztof Plocha) I teach in a public gimnazjum for ordinary students. They make mistakes but hope to be better in future and, first of all, they are aware of the fact that English is immanent part of today's life.
I'm not a member of any organisation etc. My main and the only reason is to help them in English.

I'm writing here because I would like to ask you for help. Can you visit that site www.e-playground.blogspot.com and write some 'warm' comments, back them up or encourage to better work?

Thanks in advance!
Krzysztof Płocha,Szczecin.

Hi Krzysztof,

Thanks a lot for introducing your project to us -- I think your idea is brilliant and judging by the entries on your blog your students think so too. What you might want to do is find other schools who are running similar projects so you can combine your results and exchange experiences. Also, it would be great if you could tell us how exactly you started your blog. Do all your students have access to the Internet at home or are do they post to your blog when they are at school? Also, are you using your student's blog entries in your classroom and have you ever thought about using your blog to have your students write their school essays?

Please let me know what you think.
Cześć,
Torsten
