WHAT WE'RE REALLY LIKE

After each pair of schools has exchanged ideas about each other, there'll be a chance to respond. We think it'll be quite enlightening for students to find out how people in other countries view them, and it'll give us a starting point from which we can measure our progress.

Well, you've seen how your twin class imagines you - now's your chance to put them right on a few things - and to congratulate them on the things they got right!

What did you think of their ideas about you? Where do you think they got their information from? Where did you get your ideas about them from? TV? The movies? Books? Friends who come from that country or have been there?

Write a piece that describes you, your family and your life. You might want to use some of the points you looked at earlier, when you were thinking about the other class's country; or you might want to focus on what they thought of you and your country.

You could also draw a picture, scan it and email it to me so that I can put it on-line. Or take some photos of your class and your school that we can put up on the website. In fact, if you like, we could set up a Rogue's Gallery with pictures and a bit of writing about each of us..... that way, the WHOLE WORLD can find out a bit more about us!
