Escuela Profesional Javeriana-Jonesboro High School
1. We are one of the groups of the Javeriana
Professional School, Administration and
Finance 1.
2. This year we are doing some projects with an
Arkansas teacher “Kirstyn”, we are doing more
activities, she tells us about their city. She
teaches us creative things, and she is very
spontaneous.
One of the projects was making a Christmas
video and maintaining contact with students
from Jonesboro High school, who tell us about
their life in Arkansas and we explained them
how we live in Madrid . They told us about their
school, the food they like, what they do in their
spare time, they like to play sports, the weather
is very different.
3. We exchanged pictures and culture, it was
interested doing and knowing people
different from us.
We read emails aloud in class so that
everyone knows what life is like there and
have more information related to their
school.
This experience has helped us to learn new
cultures, to improve our level of English and
we would like to meet Arkansas people.
