Two groups of students from the Lower Secondary School in Krzeszow, Poland carried out projects to encourage their peers to learn English. One group created an English website and Facebook page to share information about British culture and hold quizzes and contests. The other group distributed English vocabulary words daily to students and organized a competition that was publicized on the first group's website. Both projects aimed to motivate the school community to learn English in fun ways using online resources.

The project “Teenagers in action” was carried out by a group of
students participating in Youngster classes.
We decided to set up our own English website so that, all
students of the Lower Secondary School in Krzeszow could learn
new vocabulary and broaden their knowledge of the British
culture. We realize that there are so many English websites, but
we wanted to encourage our friends to learn English in an
unusual way.
During the project we were putting interesting information
related to British popular festivals, quizzes and photos. Besides the
website, it was also conducted a Fanpage on the Facebook.
The main aim, was to motivate the school community to use the
resources of the Internet, but not only for amusement. To
summarize the project, we arranged an English contest. The
results were put on the website: www.en-zskrzeszow.cba.pl and
the winners will receive prizes and diplomas prepared by us.

the culture of English-speaking countries.
We discussed Valentine's Day, St.
Patrick's Day, famous places and history
of the city of London. Our action has
always been summarized by preparing
decoration and a school newspaper.

One of problems in our school was our students’ low
knowledge of English words useful in everyday life. In
order to solve the problem we decided to encourage
our friends to learn new words. Every day we
distributed pieces of paper on which there were two
words. Our friends had to translate and learn the
words. The project lasted for a month. Its result was a
competition of the words and cultural information
about English – speaking countries. The information
was placed on the website created by our friends from
the other project group - www.en-zskrzeszow.cba.pl.
The competition took place on March, 12th. All present
that day students took part in it. The winners were
announced on the website. They will get special prizes.
