Rehearsal and More...

During their second teamtime the campers were busy with their future closing ceremony.

Some campers that were reluctant to join the House were stopped and asked to tell me about their likes and dislikes, about the names of the subjects, decription of the pictures about space, etc.

The workshop:
Report 1: "The problems of education and its future". I had thought it was too academic, but while listening I was amazed by the creative introduction of the ideas.

Report 2: "How to become a boring teacher". A rather funny interpretation of crucial points of this methodology!
Report 3: Governing principles of assessment of young learners" (based on the experience)

Report 4: "Introducing the teacher-made board game "Wonders of America". Using templates for creating ESL/EFL games
