I’m thinking aloud … Every year we graduate groups of kids and they just fly away to the real world. Some of them manage to enter the best universities in the country, some of them are luckier with some financial support from their parents, some of them have no support at all, other than the…
When I read Emma Herrod’s post on planning a lesson, I started thinking about my own style. Emma’s post asks a lot of useful question to the teacher and there are wonderful contributions to the post in the comments sections. I really do agree with most of them and I had some more ideas how…

In project based learning we expect our students to create projects. Students are supposed to research and link all the subjects together and present their projects with the use of technology. This year we tried to use it in our classes but we still have some question marks. Should we always define a problem…
Another school year is about to finish and we are about to announce the successful students. Yesterday with some colleagues we had a chat and found out how much we knew about each kid. Most of us know about their problems at home and unfortunately the majority of the kids do have problems. Some of…
On June 1st, we celebrated the Pen Pal Day together. This time we were more crowded. Actually we planned to be able to do it all together, 5 countries at the same time but time differences and our working hours didn’t allow us to do so. Arjana, Ana Maria and Guido got connected…
