Men who have created new fruits in the world cannot create a system whereby their fruits may be eaten. And the failure hangs over the State like a great sorrow… And in the eyes of the people there is the failure; and in the eyes of the hungry there is a growing wrath. In the souls of the people the grapes of wrath are filling and growing heavy, growing heavy for the vintage. ~ The Grapes of Wrath (1939) by John Steinbeck
Welcome to Grapes of Creativity, provided to you by students from Itäkeskus Upper Secondary School in Helsinki Finland. This is a web-based course (English Course 5: Culture and Arts) designed and taught by Anna Leino and Heidi Kohi. Instructions, grammar, and vocabulary tasks are available on Fronter Intranet, whereas here the students publish their written tasks. Each ”Act” on the right-hand sidebar is based on a specific theme and handy web-tools for learning languages are recommended under Useful Links. In addition to comments provided by the teacher, students comment each other’s blog posts constructively. Hopefully, we will also get comments from around the world!
