Here is the time line of our project.
Topic 1. What subjects do we learn in school?
1st ~5th weeks (in September)
We might have some subjects in common (like math, science) and other different subjects from those of different countries. Please design the materials to share with our partners.
1. Class schedule: Post your class schedule on blog “A day at my school”
2. Choose a special learning subject which you think is not available in schools of other countries. You can present what you learn in the special class through text, presentation slides, pictures or videos.
3. Ask at least three questions to your partners based on what you want to know about their learning subjects.
Topic 2. Our lunch in school 6th ~8th weeks
(From October 1st to October 24th)
1. Food is important in different cultures. Tell us what, where and how you eat for lunch in school. Show your answers through pictures, text, presentation slides or video.

Hey there Ling,
The timeline looks good. Just a note that I'm getting married on October 18th. I'm hoping to get a sub who will be able to do more than just babysit while I'm gone on my honeymoon but I have no guarantees. So there may be a lull between the 18th and the 27th while I'm away.
