Hello Everyone,
I'm Jamie Cohen, a Grade 9 English teacher at a school just outside of Toronto.
My purpose in posting is to connect with international teachers who are interested in creating
21st Century learning experiences for their students.
If any Grade 9 teachers are interested in connecting our classes through Skype or teaming up to do a Rap Genius Annotation please contact me at jamiecoheneducator@gmail.com or through this site.

Hi Jamie,
I'm an english language teacher in Saratov, Russia
We (the Eng Lang Staff of our lyceum) are greatly interested in the topic - Shakespeare- as we have been holding SH Festival for 28 years and for the last 3 years it has become a region-wide one.

I am afraid skype is not the case for us because of the time gap 8 hours.
unfortunately for me I have no idea yet what to do a Rap Genius Annotation means
All the students' reports with presentations(5 min), essays, stagings, paintings, drawings are welcomed
this year the theme for the festial is comedies of shakespeare. 27, 30th of April. we'll be happy to have your students as the participants.
