Academic English World Trade Game

One Sunday morning, all the Academic English students were brought together to play the World Trade Game. They were given random card to decide which countries they would be and each country had very different amounts of resources. They had to produce products to sell to The World Bank and trade with other countries to get what they needed. They also had to settle all disputes with the United Nations. The majority of students were very enthusiastic and many showed a lot of initiative, so a lot of students earned points for their colour teams! Here are some pictures of the action!































































Genetics Super Posters!



Students on the Academic English Course completed a Genetics Project as part of their Science Lessons. They had to create a super poster to demonstrate their new knowledge. The work produced was fantastic! Check it out!

Solar System Project

Academic English: Science Class - Solar System Projects

The Academic English students had to research our solar system and find out facts about each planet. They then had to work in groups to build a model solar system. They also had to present their models to the rest of the class and discuss problems they had and any limitations of the models. The presentations were of an excellent standard and were full of very interesting facts. The students gave eachother feedback about their models and presentations. They all worked extremely hard and everyone showed an improvement in the end of week test! Well done!!

Here are pictures of each group with their models.
