Let’s start this exciting adventure by knowing a little bit more about the city that we are going to visit on this journey. Our first stop in London is Tower Bridge, one of the most famous sights in London.

At the end of the session,you will have:

• watched a tourist video about London and answered some questions.
• known all the outcomes you have to produce along this journey.
• started thinking about what an article of opinion is and opened up your Google Sites about London.

Watch the following video and try to write down, at least 4 of the most famous places in London: 

After having watched the video, answer the following questions orally:

• Do you know any other famous places in London?
• Have you been to any other European capital cities?
• Do you remember any of the monuments you visited?
• Any interesting or favourite landmarks?
• Do you recommend visiting that city? Why? Why not?

As you are going to see in a few moments, Tower Bridge will be the first place you should include on a Google Site map. Don't forget about it!

At the end of the "London" project, you will have produced the following outcomes:

Task: Each project has a different task, with different steps to complete it. In this project, you have to write an article of opinion and publish it through Twitter. All the different steps and activities within this task will be identified thanks to their colour, orange.

Challenge: Along the different projects, there is a challenge which is common to all the projects, with a Google Site, where you have to search for certain information of the different English-speaking cities you are going to visit. The different activities are also going to be distributed in different steps and you are going to have some help to look for and select the information for the collaborative challenge. This is designed to be done in groups of 2/3 students. All the activities within this challenge will be identified thanks to their colour, green.

Learning Diary: You have to use a blog (Wordpress, Blogger, Edublogs or others), as your learning diary. You will publish the different reflections on the activities you will find throughout the projects, the videos of the conversations with your classmates, the reflections on the daily work, all the different tasks, the link to your Google Site challenge, and all the other activities that you will be discovering along the projects. All the activities within this task will be identified thanks to their colour, blue.

Twitter will be a tool you should use to spread and share your work. Along the project you will be required to publish on Twitter using one (or both) of these hashtags: #taskopinion and #EDIAlondon

All your work along this project will be evaluated according to the following rubric. You can use it as a guide and a reference for your work: Assessment rubric 'Project London'.
