HELP US REACH OUR CHALLENGE!   

The challenge : 100 sentences about Lithuania !   

Dear parents,       

To celebrate the centennial of the restored Lithuania, in English class, we took on a challenge: to write 100 sentences in English about Lithuania!

Please help your child formulate in your language one or two facts about Lithuania. In class, we will translate together in English. Facts can be about geography, history, arts, monuments, important figures, dates, sports, etc… Here is a sample of sentences we have so far:

 Yellow, green and red are the colors of the Lithuanian flag. (Rojus, CP) * Gediminas’ Tower is an important symbol of Vilnius and Lithuania. (Gabija, CE1) * In Vilnius, there is a green bridge. (Glafyra, CP) * There are 3 million people living in Lithuania. (Manuele, CE1) *  Jonas Basanavičius wrote the first newspaper in Lithuania. (Renaud, CE2) *  Neris is a river that flows through Vilnius. (Marc Philipp, CE2) *  The Grand Duke Gediminas had a dream about an iron wolf on the mountain. (Elvira, CE1) *  Basketball is the most popular sport in Lithuania. (Rapolas, CE1) * Mindaugas was the only king of Lithuania. (Vilmante, CE2)

This project is ongoing this week and next week. The 100 sentences will be posted on a wall at school and on Facebook.

Thank you very much for your involvement!
