Welcome back Year 9. Term 3 will bring us another challenge. We are going to create a wiki which will offer information to other teens who are moving abroad. Each of you will choose a different country and contribute information on that country to the wiki. The wiki platform that we will be using is: PB Works - http://pbworks.com/

But first things first. What shall we call our wiki?
Culture Notes, Culture Matters, Living Abroad, Moving Ahead, Postcards from Abroad, Cultureville

Let's look at the Unit of Work: http://www.box.net/shared/vlx1balp20 

Let's also get our our diaries and talk about scheduling.  Are any of you going on the Globe Theatre trip?
