The document outlines an assignment for students to create an English-language blog about the culture of English-speaking countries. Students will work in groups to publish at least 12 blog entries with articles, videos, photos and other materials found through research. Entries must include summaries and comments rather than directly copying content. Groups will present their completed blogs to the class.

A timeline is provided for setting up the blog, doing research, and publishing entries over several weeks before presenting to the class.
The document is a quiz about English speaking countries with 30 multiple choice questions. It tests knowledge about the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. Some of the questions ask about the Queen's reign, animals native to Australia, the British flag, famous authors from the UK, indigenous peoples of New Zealand, and sports invented in or popular in these countries. The quiz is meant for students in grades 5-9 and provides 30 seconds to answer each question in English.
Students worked in teams, pairs, and individually on coin projects about English speaking countries like the UK, Ireland, USA, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, India, and China. They researched online and created paper documents, then presented their final projects about the countries using Prezi and timelines.
