  2. Dear Ruty and Inga,

    Today I have put a new powerpoint-presentation made by my students about the former island of Schokland (The Netherlands) in the album of the Unesco World Heritage Sites-project. Can you please look for me if you can open this presentation (because it's quit big). And can you please put it in the blog of our project?
    Thanks in advance!

  3. Dear Inga and Ruty,

    Next schoolyear I will ask some of my students to make a poster of our iEARN-project Unesco World Heritage Sites 2008-2009. Is this a good idea? And do maybe you have any suggestions/ideas for this poster?
    Greetings,
