Hi guys,

today we went to the computer room to do some research about India.

Here is the webquest we used :

Homework:

- pour vendredi: vous devrez préparer un compte-rendu en anglais de ce que vous avez appris sur l'Inde grâce à vos recherches. N'oubliez pas non plus de bien lire le texte distribué sur les dabbawalas et de préparer des questions dessus si vous voulez bien réussir votre prochain test...

Hi guys,

thanks to Mohamed today the board was filled with questions!

1) Who are the dabbawalas?
2) How many members are they?
3) How do they deliver the food?
4) Why is the dabba service famous?
5) What is a lunch box?
6) Where is the dabba service located?
7) How many people work for the association?
8) What is the website of the dabbawalas?
9) What means of transport do they use?
10) What technologies do they use?

---------------------------

Then we went online to do many exercises on how to create a question... I hope that you now understand better and that you will practise for next time's test.

Hi guys,

today after your presentation about "I shouldn't be alive!", we continued our class about India.

Here is what we said (not in the notebooks yet) after watching the video:

Recap: the dabbawala service

Dabba and dabbawala are Hindi words.

In India, more precisely in Mumbai (the biggest city in India), about 200,000 clients / customers use the service everyday.

The delivery men carry the lunch boxes on their heads. They don't have cars to deliver the food in schools and offices.

On the lid of the box, there is a code in colours. Dabbawallas wear a white uniform.

They never make a mistake = they are very efficient and impressive!
