Choose your Charity
Choose your Charity
The class has $25,000 to donate to a charity. An individual student (or pair) researches a charity of his/her choice. The students then present the charities to the class, explaining why the money should be donated to them. Finally, a vote is taken as to which charity the class wants to support (see link). Money could then be raised and donated to the charity on behalf of the students.
As part of a cross-curricular activity, the students invent a "start-up" invention. Here are 8 activities students do in English, on 4 different levels. Each teacher chooses the level of activities for his/her on class. The NS class do one activity on each level (with exceptions). Start-Up Project
