Not much left now!

The National Test is now behind us. I have corrected the listening, reading and done a preliminary reading of your essays... Everything will be done by next Tuesday and as you start to work on your projects I will speak to you individually about your results.

Next week is the final project week and I will be distributing documents today so that you can get going on this. The project is COMPULSORY.
Here is the material for SPS2

From Curriculum
Eleven uttrycker sig och interagerar skriftligt med sammanhang, struktur och allt större variation kring innehåll hämtat från ett flertal områden.
Eleven redovisar och kommenterar stoff från egna intressen och egen studieinriktning.
Du skall  sammanhängande  kunna berätta om, beskriva och förklara  förhållanden inom egna samt inom allmänna  och aktuella temaområden.

During week 21 you will have the opportunity to do a Final Project.
The theme of the project is to present something about Sweden or the place where you live for our Ugandan friends for your visit there or as part of a document to be sent there.

You can decide to work on your own or with one other person.
You must get together as a whole class and make sure you cover as many aspects as possible of the way of life in Sweden/Leksand

You are going to present your mini-project on Tuesday week 22.

The project can be in the form of a simple presentation such as  a powerpoint,

Whatever you choose there should be some kind of visual input ( a picture speaks more than a 1000 words).

You can present facts, attitudes, problems, joys etc.
