Le Jour de la Terre - 22 avril 2008

N'oubliez pas de dire à vos élèves qu'aujourd'hui c'est le Jour de la Terre! Naturellement nos amis canadiens ont des sites super sur Internet. Regardez le Site web officiel du Jour de la Terre. Il y a un vidéo clip sur le thème et la chanson "Joyeux anniversaire..." où l'on voit une usine avec des cheminées qui laissent échapper de la fumée (en guise de bougies)... quand on souffle... l'air pollué va partout... Regardez et passez le à vos classes de français, ça vaut la peine!

Bien le bonjour des classes de français de l'école Ammons à Miami!

HGD Web quest-Millennium Goal #6 "Combat HIV/AIDS..."

To facilitate Millennium Development Goal number 6 "Combat HIV/AIDS and the incidence of malaria and other major diseases, I made a webquest for middle school students to educate them about their bodies and sexually transmitted diseases.  The webquest product can be as little as completing a work sheet about the information to making a power point educating others about human growth and development.

Conference on conflict resolution

I am in the process of organising a conference - to be held at Wellington College, England in April 2009 - on conflict resolution.  I would be interested to know of any suggestions, or resources, IB teachers might have for such a conference.  We would like students from around the world to attend to share their thoughts on how education can play a part in building bridges between divided communities.
