WhatsUp Project

The purpose of the WhatsUp Project is to encourage students to read. In this project teachers receive a short reading text via WhatsApp on a variety of topics of interest that relate to students in the 7-12 grades. Teachers then forward the WhatsApp text to their students in their own WhatsApp groups. The reading texts are accompanied with questions that the students can answer and get immediate feedback and an online vocabulary excercice. More information and how to join is found here.

All the texts of the WhatsUp project are posted on this Facebook page where teachers are welcome to share ideas in the comments under each text. Here is an example of one one of the texts, to see in full please click here.
