1. activate and engage all the skills and knowledge you have learnt in this unit through designing a booklet to introduce your school;

Decide on a good order for the information and then put the pages together.
Improve the design of the booklet if necessary.

Wonderful Donghua High!
“Where the grass is indeed greener!”
Location of School
Donghua High is a unique experimental high school established in Beijing, China in 1921.
History of School
It was started in 1921 as an all-girls school for orphaned children. The school helped produce many well known people in science and arts. It is now open to all students of all abilities.
School Motto
The school motto is “Where the grass is indeed greener!” and this comes from the phrase “The grass is always greener on the other side.” While this phrase refers to the idea that we always think what we don’t have is better than what we do have, we instead use it in a positive light to highlight the things we do have and how good they are. Therefore, our grass is indeed greener!
Suggested Answer
School Rules
The only rule in this school is that there are no rules! This does not mean that students can behave in ways that are wrong or unruly. Rather, students are expected to take responsibility for their own education and lives. All decisions at the school are made democratically, with students and teachers having an equal vote. Teachers are seen more of as aides to help students educate themselves.
Special Events
We host several events throughout the year. Our most popular event is the whole school art competition, where we ask all our students to submit one piece of artwork using any medium they like. Winners are chosen by the students and we usually have some fantastic prizes to give away. We also have a School Volunteer Day, where we encourage students, under adult supervision, to go out into the local community and help out. This is our way of giving back to the community.
Suggested Answer
Compulsory and Elective Courses
There are no formal classes at our school. Instead, students do what they like, and study when and what they like. We believe this helps students to develop the ability to take control of their lives at an early age and learn to be independent and self-reliant. They have options to study science, computers, and all kinds of liberal arts such as contemporary dance and traditional ink painting styles, such as shan shui.
Clubs
Our school has many clubs available to students, and we encourage extra-curricular activities. We have art clubs, sports clubs and even an open-air cinema club. You will no doubt find what you are looking for in our club selection.

Come visit us and see the experiment! See the dream in action! You will be impressed!
Suggested Answer

According to the teacher’s and classmates’ evaluation, polish up your booklet.
