Session Title: GLOBAL FRIENDSHIPS MADE EASY: A useful problem-solver for smart students.
Session Description:
This is an extra-curricular project for first-graders who had pre-school training or students at any level with time on their hands. It is in two parts. Part 1 is THE ESPERANTO TRICYCLE (featuring Apprenticeship Language Learning developed in Australia). Part 2 is LEARNING FROM ATOMS (an unrelated but well-received global project). It utilizes the E:P:N projects from my eBook at http://clozeonline.us/ebook. When implemented together, I refer to them as the GLOBAL FRIENDSHIP PATH TO SUCCESS. Below are eight of the 12 months and their respective focus.
ESPERANTO, THE APPRENTICESHIP LANGUAGE
Month 1: Nouns, pronouns, adjectives, and words we need for asking and answering questions.
Month 2: Verbs, adverbs, conversation starters, and words to add emphasis.
Month 3: Prepositional phrases—making things come alive!
Month 4: Actually talk and text with other global learners about things they have in common via Skype.
Month 5: Converse with learners abroad (using E-o, the world’s apprenticeship language).
Month 6: Social learning using both Esperanto and English with their new friends abroad.
Month 7: Deciding which natural language they wish to learn one day.
Month 8: Unstructured learning with Esperanto-spoken friends from the target country.

Thanks.
I think this should do it, Lucy. Thanks for being patient.
Also, if you are promoting a "commercial program", you need to be a sponsor of the conference. Please remove references to your commercial program if you'd like to be considered for acceptance without sponsorship.
Thanks,
Lucy Gray
