2 Read the article and check your answers. Community Partners A great new project started at a Nottingham secondary school at the beginning of September. Once a week, older people from the community come to the school to learn how to use the Internet and their mobile phones. More and more people come every time. So far, they've all learned to share photos on their phones and set up a Facebook account. Ian Richardson, 73, said, 'I've been checking my Facebook page every day to stay in touch with my grandchildren. I love it!' 68-year-old Linda Barnes agrees. 'My daughter has sent me six text messages already today! I enjoy the photos she sends me, too.' The students are great teachers, and they're really enjoying the chance to help people in their community. The students and older participants have been learning a lot from one another. 'Mrs. Miller introduced me to Hitchcock films and I enjoy them. They're slow-moving but very interesting,' said 16-year-old Charlotte Gardner. Ben Clark, 17, said, 'I taught Mr. Cunningham how to stream history documentaries online, and now I watch them, too!' Many of the older participants now enjoy watching amusing video clips online and two women are working together to write a blog about travel opportunities for the elderly. 'They showed me how to find interesting video clips and I learned about a new musician – he's very talented, and good-looking!' said 79-year-old Patricia Saunders, who has become Ed Sheeran's newest fan. She recently purchased and downloaded all of his world-famous albums. Nigel Young, 64, prefers playing action-packed computer games with the students, and his wife, Kathleen, now reads books on her tablet. 'I enjoy reading mystery books. Now I can download them on my tablet instead of carrying around heavy books,' said Mrs. Young. Whatever their interests, the participants are finding new ways to access their entertainment choices. Everyone involved in the project is enjoying the opportunity to teach and learn from a different generation.
