Erasmus Day 2019 at our high school

   We have been holding two different Erasmus Day, one on the 6th June 2018 and another one on 5th June 2019 to show other students, parents, school teachers, authorities and members of La Llagosta community our progress on our Erasmus + project "Go For". 

   Programmes included our project's students explaining and showing their project actions and mobilities, as well as, a kahoot for everyone, and even a contest with awesome project memories for everyone! In this edition, students were given their Europass certificate of mobility that certifies their project objectives and mobility details.

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!

Working on Storytelling in class

   During the 2nd year GoFor project, partners agreed on start working on storytelling in our classes. This will be the motto of second students' exchange mobility in Estonia, where they will be working in mixed nationality groups in order to write a story. In order to be successful, we considered essential to work on this previously in our classes, as well as creating a mail chain where each partner will develop 3 pages long section of the same story. This will be a model for a our project students.

   During January, we've been dealing with stories' structure, grammar, vocabulary to get our students ready for the project task. Moreover, our students have participated in an itinerary of storytelling tasks: sequencing, free writing, whole-class story, grammar exercises, create your hero... timed. This helps our students to develop their language skills, their critical thinking, creativity and autonomy, as well as learning to work under pressure.

   After the lesson, students were invited to leave their comments (the most you like and the least you like) in a panel.
