22. One of the students’ feelings:
 My name is Göktuğ Yiğit .I’m a student at Amerikan
Kültür Lisesi
 I want to tell something about the trip to our local
nursing home.We went there yesterday and we had a
great time .. firstly;we propared some posters and
some of us baked cakes and cookies for them before
we go.
 When we arrived there,they were glad to see us.We
tried to sing Turkish and English songs and we had
brunch all together.
 They told us stories and jokes.
 -This was the first time for me.But I liked.
 -It was really a great experience for us.

23. Results:
 The idea bringing the young and the old together
to learn from and about each other was really
great.The result was fantastic. I think;By sharing
skills and experiences, we could increase
understanding and respect between younger and
older generations.
 I had the chance to improve the students’ respect
for the others.
 I integrated videos in curriculum.I could teach
them ‘used to’ structure and’’ to be in the past’’
easily and my students learnt with
pleasure.Using videos , inviting older people and
going outside made my lessons more active and
more interesting..

24. It was really a great experience for
my students

website;It ‘ll also be shared with public via
