Lesson on 14.11.2016 - meeting at 8:00

Hi everyone!

You have made great videos! You can all show them to the students at Donnerska on Monday 14.11.2016!

The class on 14.11.2016 at 8:00 will look like this.

8:00 Meeting in the lobby of Donnerska skolan. Be there on time!

Address: Banerinkatu 3-5. You can come in from Pengerkatu side.

We will meet the rector and participate in 2 classes.

Make sure you know how to find your video. You need to have the link with you or know how to find it. We will use ipads at Donnerska, so it’s easier to see and hear your videos.

You will be in small groups, so it will be comfortable for all of you.

Be prepared to tell about your own country in the small group. Some history, what education is like, what is important in your country, what you like especially about it etc.

I’ll meet you in the lobby at 8:00. 

Enjoy the sunny weekend!

Linda
