On 30th October 2014 III grade students took part in an experimental lesson dedicated to the famous writer, Ernest Hemingway. The cooperation of our two teachers, the Serbian language teacher and the English language teacher was very successful. It began by Zeljana’s account of Hemingway’s life. We were surprised by many facts. He survived a plane crash, he was an adventurer, hunter and fisherman. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature and the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Afterwards we discussed his famous quotes both in Serbian and English.
