Making FIlms, Making Friends: the end!

The school year has already finished in Italy and the last days of school all the students of the partner schools voted for the best logo within the etwinning project "Making FIlms, Making Friends"  and 

the winner is ...


Congratulations 
to Giulia Gallina 
class III G "L. Da Vinci - O. Nucula" school in Terni.

The last activity our students have been involved in was "Stories from and for films" which saw students working in international groups. A group of students created the beginning of a story starting from the ending of one of their favourite film, then the other students from the other groups continued the story until the end. As students from Norway, Portugal and France are still going to school some of the stories haven't got an ending yet so ... start reading the stories and come back to this blog in a while to read the end! 

Here are the links to read the stories.

Let's celebrate the European Day of Languages with us: final activity

The last activity of the eTwinning project "Let's celebrate the EDL with us" has ended some months ago with a nice activity for Easter. Students of class I H of the school "L. Da Vinci - O. Nucula" in Terni created, sent and received cards for Easter. 
They created the cards together with the teacher of Art and wrote a message in English and Italian with the teacher of Italian.

Here are the cards we created 





These are the cards we received. 




This project was a wonderful experience for them because it helped the students to improve their English and digital skills but also because they became more aware of living in a bigger place that is the European Union where there are a lot of different people who speak different languages. Kids loved all the activities but the ones they liked best were the Skype sessions with Ukraine and Romania.
