Today is Tuesday, 7th January 2014 Lesson 43 Subject: E-twinning - tekst

eTwinning - a new way of learning Is your school going to be one of the lucky thousands taking part in eTwinning projects next year? A teacher and a student tell us about their plans for a joint language project between two schools in Spain and England. Carla (35) a teacher from Barcelona, Spain

Eight teachers and thirty students in England and Spain are going to join in this language project in cyberspace next year. It’s exciting. I’m going to teach an online course for a mixed group of English and Spanish teenagers. We’ll meet in cyberspace three times a week. I think it’s going to be very interesting. I’d like to teach the English students a lot of social language in Spanish, because I think it will be useful for them. I’m going to work together with the English teacher so I’m not going to be on my own. I think we’re going to have a great time and we’ll probably make friends. Peter (14) a student from Norwich, England

I’m going to have special Spanish classes next year – online! My classmates and I are going to have lessons three times a week with a teacher in Barcelona. We’re not going to be the only students though. There will be fifteen Spanish students too. Am I going to learn a lot? I hope so! Half the time, the lessons will be in Spanish and the other half, in English. I’d like to learn some colloquial expressions in Spanish. I think the students will teach us lots! And who knows? Maybe we’ll make friends and meet in the real world one day. I hope so!
