While surfing the net I came across the following facebook post! I thought that this could be used as a useful teaching material and would active my students’ -especially those who “don’t know English well” -interest in the lesson since it was still the beginning of the school year!
Goal: To prove that Greek exists in English language, so learning English isn’t as difficult as it may sound to some of them!
Students were asked to think of Greek loans in English (Greek words) and then they were handed out the facebook post. Then, they were asked to make a word cloud with wordle using these words.
After that, they were divided into groups according the topics : Politics, Mathematics, Drama, Physics, Economics. They were given english texts using Greek words such as the famous speech by Zolotas. They had to read them and present them in class.
As a final product they had to make a comic strip with pixton writing a dialogue in English using Greek words. The comic stories were printed in a poster and presented in the European Day Of Languages celebration in our school.
