“Facing the need of encouraging two Junior groups in writing, I decided to use the website “Zimmer

Twins” as a technological tool. The main objective was provoking their interest and involvement in the

subjects brought by their textbook .They loved the experience! Besides having a

totally new and exciting manner to develop their written skills using the amount of language seen in

class, sts also had speaking and reading opportunities enhanced with the tool, as they

earlier discussed what to do in pairs, and then read all the results. Not to mention the new

website vocabulary they were presented with. “
