(ERW2-2018-19) - Session 2 - Maya Angelou's caged bird - Trip to the dentist

Hello everyone! 

This week I would like you to read at least one chapter from the book I know why the caged bird sings by Maya Angelou. Take your time, it is not an easy reading. 

I want you to read chapter 24 about a trip to a dentist. You can find it here, and pressing the next or previous buttons you can read other chapters. 

How do you feel? Did it surprise you?

If you enjoyed Pippi's audiobook experience you can listen to Maya reading the first chapter here.  

Thoughts?

About ERW1- I haven't had time to correct your portfolios. It's the end of the semester I am very busy right now. Be patient, please. Thanks.  

 

 

(ERW2-2018-19)- Session 1- Challenge 1.3. Pippi

Challenge 3: 

I would like you to read the book Pippi Longstocking by Astrid Lindgren (1945), at least some chapters. I think Chapter number 4 is very interesting, it is called "Pippi Goes To School". However I cannot find a pdf version of the (whole) book. Go to the public library or to a bookshop or go here and click next. It has no paragraphs but it has audiobook option, so you can listen to it while reading it which seems great! 

 Here you can find  the author's books and characters.

What did you think? Any memory? 

Then read this article by Julie Sophie Haager about the impact of this character (from the TV programme version)  and how children share their thoughts and emotions through drawing. 

Thoughts? 

Have a nice week!

(ERW2-2018-19)- Session 1 - Challenge 1.2. The worst mistake in the history of human history

Hello everyone! 

 

For this module we are going to focus more on extensive reading so I am going to choose articles but also chapters and whole books.

First, I would like you to think about this question and answer it using your own life experience and thoughts:

In your opinion, what are the worst mistakes in the History of Human Race? Choose 3 and explain your choice.  

 

After answering, I want you to take the time to read carefully this article by Jared Diamond.

(You can get to know this amazing author here for example). 

After reading it:   What are your thoughts? Are you surprised? What do you think about his arguments? Do you agree? 

 

Challenge 3 coming soon... :)

 

Enjoy!

(ERW2-2018-19)- Session1 - 1.1. Welcome back!

Hello everyone! 

First of all, I want to thank you for your great participation and the kind feedback in ERW1. 

Secondly, I want to ask you to printscreen your journoportfolio and send everything as a pdf document to my email. Some of your portfolios have shown some problems. It seems that there is a free trial period, which didn't exist when I started using this online tool a couple of years ago. I am really sorry for any inconvenience.  

So, first challenge,  breath in, breath out  :)  and prepare a document with your name, the link to your journoportfolio, and printscreens of the different articles and send it to me by email.

 

Second challenge... Coming very soon.

 

Thanks for your patience,

nlm
