Halloween
Halloween in IH... and probably celebrated in some way in many language classroomsI came across this list of 100 scariest movies the other day and thought, "That might make a good blogging project".
A rough outline of a project
- In class, brainstorm, talk about "scariest movies", to see if we can produce a list of, say, 10 to 20
- See if we can agree on a rough ranking for them
- Turn on the PCs, and use a collaborative process writing approach to produce a plot summary plus what makes them really, really scary
- Go through various drafts, getting the other learners to commit on each others' work, and saving as Word documents
- Post the final version on a blog
- Get students to read the finished products, and use the "comments" feature to "vote" which they now think are most scary

You could also "save as draft" on a blog -- quite a good way to avoid the problem of possibly losing work done on PCs in a computer lab.
Wikipedia explains all about pumpkin "Jack-o'-lanterns" (ie as shown in the photograph on this post).
