There is a lot of interesting, fun and great work going on in International House classrooms around the world. Often this work is only seen by a small audience and, especially in our young learner classes, the students do not realise they are part of a wider network of schools. As such, in our 60
th year, we thought it would be a nice idea to try bringing our classes together into a global community.
By setting various projects for teachers and their students to take part in, we hope to build a global IH audience. Students share their projects on the community wiki and other schools can view them and leave comments. Think of it as pen friends in the digital age.
As well as classroom projects, the classroom community aims to help teachers integrate technology into their teaching and give schools an added way of showing how good they are at teaching English.
