Week 8: Filimentality

This week you will develop at least one Filimentality activity for your students.

(2) You have probably decided on one specific type of activity. Just follow the instructions below and, presto, your activity will be posted on the Internet. You can then go to your webpage and add a link to the activity.

(3) Choose your activity below…visit the recommended sites to get more ideas and then follow the step-by-step instructions.
