Dear Sarah The British Council is currently doing workshops on our online virtual island on Second Life. In the workshops teenagers learn about the United Kingdom and are introduced to a virtual world that they can sign up for and meet people from all over the world and practice their English. Teens from the ages of 13 to 17 can register with a parental consent form. If you would like more information then please let me know. We also have a range of activities to use with different films if you'd like to show them a film. We have activities for Nanny McPhee, Stormbreaker, Bend it like Beckham, Wallace and Gromit and Billy Elliot. I would be happy to send them on to you. I hope you have a great English day Nicola Crowley ELT Project Manager | British Council T: +972 (0)3 6113614 | F: +972 (0)3 6113640 | M: +972 (0)544 308170 nicola.crowley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | www.britishcouncil.org/israel ----- Original Message ----- From: Sarah Gilboa - sarahgilboa@xxxxxxxxx Subject: english day Hi to all, We at school would like to have an 'English Day' . Our school is a comprehensive one 7th - 12th grade 250 pupils Does anyone have some ideas how to go about the issue - in the past I have seen some postings but unfortunately at the time i did not think it relevant so I did not save anything. If you have some experience or heard about a successful 'day' our staff would very much appreciate it if u could forward any ideas, notes or any related sites.
