This document describes an educational blog created for 11th grade students at Federico Ozanam School in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The blog aims to have students independently practice and reinforce their English skills by describing places around Medellin, Colombia through videos, presentations, interviews, webquests, games and puzzles that use adjectives. The resources will help students learn the main characteristics of different locations in Medellin and describe them in English at an intermediate proficiency level of A2 to B1. The broader goal of the blog is for teachers to recognize the need to incorporate technology and online learning environments to meet the requirements of the contemporary world.
