WORLD CLASS!
A project by Liam Murphy
This is a geography class in Bangladesh. It isn't a traditional primary school - these students are studying on a 'boat school'. It's a great idea because transport can be a big problem here when there's a lot of rain. The boat isn't moving at the moment, but at the start and the end of the day, it goes along the river to the students' villages.
Eton College is one of Britain's oldest and most expensive private schools and it looks like the students are wearing Britain's oldest, most expensive uniforms! Not very practical! They're walking to a lesson. This is a boarding school - students study, eat and sleep here.
Look! What is the teacher doing? She is teaching English, but she is not at her school. Her students are staying at home and learning lessons on television. In Hồ Chí Minh City, Việt Nam, students can have such lessons on the channel of HTV Key. It is another learning way for them - digital learning.
This is my secondary school in Ireland. We're having a dance class and it's a lot of fun. There are a lot of traditional dances in Ireland. I'm not dancing - I'm watching the dancers. Our teachers are playing the musical instruments.

I can still learn
Most children between five and eighteen in Britain must go to school. But the situation is different for me. I play tennis and I must practise a lot, and I often go to other countries to play in tournaments. How can I still learn? Luckily, digital learning helps me.
When I am absent from school, I do online courses. Computers help me with the subjects, and I can learn at my own speed. When there is no tournament, I come back to school and I can do the tests easily. My friends also help me if I have any problems.
This new learning way makes me happy and keeps me up with my friends. I can still learn when I am not at school. That is why digital learning becomes more and more popular.
* keep up with: to do whatever is necessary to stay level or equal with someone or something

My Favorite Novel
Thành Nguyễn, November 18
My favorite book is Yellow Flowers on the Green Grass (Tôi Thấy Hoa Vàng Trên Cỏ Xanh). It's an interesting novel. The author of the book is Nguyễn Nhật Ánh. The book is about Thiều and the people around him. I like the book because it shows us many beautiful things in Thiều's village. It is a peaceful village with green grass, trees, wind, and yellow flowers. Some parts of the story are very sad. I cried a lot when I thought Thiều's brother, Tường, cannot walk again. I really like this book. I think you should read it.
