Hello,
My name is Marek Kozub and I,m a teacher at General Jasinski High School in Warsaw, Poland. Our country is the size of an average state in the USA and its population is less than 40 million. In the South we have mountains and in the North the Baltic (Celtic - white) Sea. After regaining our full independence and becoming a democracy in 1989 we joined European Union in 2005. Warsaw is roughly the size of San Diego.
I asked my students to pursue Elika Dagestan project and write on one of the following topics.

  1. Describe the world you come from - for example, your family, community, or school - and tell your audience how your world has shaped your dreams and aspirations.
  2. Describe a character in fiction, a historical figure, or a creative work (as in art, music, science, etc.) that has had an influence on you, and explain that influence.
  3. Evaluate a significant experience, achievement, risk you have taken, or ethical dilemma you have faced and its impact on you.
  4. Indicate a person who has had a significant influence on you, and describe that influence.
  5. Discuss some issue of personal, local, national, or international concern and its importance to you.
  6. Tell your audience about a personal quality, talent, accomplishment, contribution, or experience that is important to you. What about this quality or accomplishment makes you proud and how does it relate to the person you are?
