Activity using Penzu

This is a suggested activity to apply Penzu to your classroom.

Grade: High School – Senior II and over
Level: Intermediate

During a history lesson in high school, teachers usually tackle the events leading to WWI and WWII as well as the events that developed during war. While working with the syllabus, students can be asked to work on Pezu to summarize what the y have learnt during each lesson.

Starting with the events that lead to the First World War, students will be asked to pretend to be journalists keeping a private journal about the events. Each entry should be written in first person and make as real as possible by adding feelings and real events to their writings. Visit the links below to see examples:



The entries have to follow a chronological order and should be shared with the teacher via email or by sharing the public links to their posts on weekly bases. Students will be graded according to the accuracy of the information in their posts, the selection of the information included, creativity of their posts  as well as due dates.
