We have already told you about the RIS Secondary project written by students for students - an online magazine! We are happy to inform you that new articles have appeared in the magazine! 

As part of the English programme, Mr. Sklyar teaches children how to write articles and essays in various styles, how to design them correctly, and how to show pupils the basics of working with websites and other electronic sites. This project enables students to practice teamwork and self-organisational skills! In addition, the online magazine is a direct practice for writing the texts that students will need to pass their exams!

Students told us how they created the online magazine and why it is important for them!
