ESO 1: 3rd TERM PBL Assignment

COMICS!

Dear ESO 1 Students:

This is your last term PBL assignment. Now you will have to create your own webcomic.

To do so, you must craft a creative story and draw your own characters and their roles.

Your comic strips must contain:

- Layout (design)
- Imaginary and unique characters (give them names and moods)
- Dialogues (put your grammar and vocabulary into practice)
- Setting (draw the different places where the story happens)
- Plot (the whole story)

Here you have a video and a website with interesting ideas on how to create your webcomic:

After putting all your bright ideas together, you should shape them into cool and eye-catching comic stipes that will bring your heroes to life. Here are some online comic strip creators:

Once you have finished your comic strips, you can send it by email or print it and hand it in on time.

The deadline for this assignment is Friday, May 31, 2019. No assignment will be accepted after this date. Remember that you can send your webcomics before the deadline.

There is an artist inside you waiting to create visual art and take the world by storm.


Good luck on your creations!

World Water Day 2019

 ...Leaving no one behind

Under the motto Leaving no one Behind, Sustainable Development Goal 6 is crystal clear: water for all by 2030. In spite of this optimistic goal, billions of people are still living without safe water: their households, schools, workplaces, farms and factories struggling to survive and thrive.

Marginalized groups such as women, children, refugees, indigenous peoples, disabled people and many others are often overlooked, and sometimes face discrimination, as they try to access and manage the safe water they need.

This World Water Day, 22nd March, is about tackling the water crisis by addressing the reasons why so many people are being left behind.

However, is there anything we can do to help them?

We can all play our part by saving water everyday. We can also support and join events and initiatives aimed at improving these people's lives and making them grow.

Water is a precious, yet finite resource essential for life, with no adequate substitute: do NOT take it for granted!
