The Girl who Silenced the World for Five Minutes




We have already watched the video together in class. Watch it again. What do you think about Severn Suzuki? What would you have done in her place? What did you feel while listening to her delivering this speech at the United Nations Environmental Conference ?

Welcome back!


Bearing in mind that two more months are missing before you move on to 7th, I would like you to reflect on this quotation

"Constant effort and frequent mistakes are the stepping stones to genius."

Vocabulary Quiz!


It's a vocabulary quiz. For every word you get right some rice is donated to hungry people. At the start, you will get words from different levels. Soon, the website will understand your level and you will get only words at your level. After that you can level up. Therefore, this website is fun for everyone. Please visit this website and take the quiz. Then visit this website again and write a comment. Tell me how you liked the website. Tell me your level. Tell me how many grains of rice you donated. I'm really looking forward to hearing what you think of this website!

Enjoy!!
