Estonia...again!

   From the 25th to 29th March 2019 we travelled to Parnü to visit again our Estonian friends from Paikuse Pohikool, this time to participate in the last students' exchanges from our project. During a week, students stayed in their hosts' homes where they got to know the Estonian culture deeper.

   During school days, the Estonian coordinator prepared a wonderful programme of workshops and outer activities that we really enjoyed and we will never forget. Among others, we visited Parnü municipality and Kihnu island for a day. We also visited Estonian capital city, Tallinn.

   Regarding school work, our students were encouraged to work in mixed-nationality groups to create their own stories for some days. They took part in different workshops to get to know each other, find the keywords of their stories following the kinesthetic learning, and start working in their stories plan.

   In order to create a certain mystery and interest to read their stories, they also recorded a short story trailer at school and its surroundings. What a great week!

Follow-up work

   It's nice to see how partners get so much involved in our project. Meeting on Skype helps us to make progress in our project aims, get better results and a bigger impact on the actions we implement.

   Thanks a lot dear partners!

C2 Gofor Mobility France

   During one week, from the 28th May to 3rd June, we spent some days together in the first pupils' Gofor mobility in Collège Saint Anné ( Bordeaux).
   We met in order to develop our teachers’ oral skills manual to improve our teaching practice. Our students took part in different activities and workshops to improve their listening and speaking in both English and French languages. For example, they developed a story, created dialogues, perfomed a play, and even interviewed other school members, among others tasks.
   Moreover, the French Gofor project fair took place during one day in the mobility. We met at school to do a book crossing, as well as sharing with others our love for reading. Students also watched a traditional shadow play puppets show made by pur Turkish partners calld Karagöz.
   Regarding culture, we had the chance to participate in a photo rally activity in Bordeaux city centre as well as visiting le Dune de Pilat as the biggest dune in Europe, it was such a fun!
   Here you can check the project pictures as well as all of our students productions on our youtube channel.

Twinspace and Youtube Channel

   

   The most important thing in this kind of European projects is our students' engagement and involvement in the tasks proposed. To get so, partners decided to implement a paralell Etwinning project where our students will be the protagonists. Now they've got their own project site, their project Twinspace, where to implement reading projects, share opinions and discuss their findings.        Moreover, we've launched our project Youtube Channel where to upload our students' videos because....a picture is worth a thousand words, isn't it?
