| Summary: | In this study we carried out and evaluated a lesson project based on the English that students come across in their spare time. The lesson project took place during our teaching practice at a high school in Luleå. At first an observation was made in order to see if three different teachers (our supervisors) connected the students’ spare time to the lessons in school. After that, the lesson project was carried out and later it was evaluated with questionnaires for the students and interviews with our supervisors. The results of the evaluation showed that the lesson project was successful. This way of working increased the students’ motivation and made the lessons more fun and instructive for them. A conclusion that can be drawn is that it is fully possible to connect the lessons in school to the English in the students’ spare time and still follow the guidelines of the National Curriculum and the Course Goals.
