Photostorytelling: an activity from the etwinning project "When a photo talks"

Students of class II H of the school "L. Da Vinci and O. Nucula" in Terni took part in the activity "Photostorytelling" within the etwinning project "When a photo talks".
Here is the final result of this activity which is an ebook with a wonderful collaborative story

To create this ebook all the students from the partner schools chose 5 images from their culture and shared them in a collage in the padlet below. They explained the meaning of the photos and then commented on each other collage.

After that they were divided in teams from different schools and each team had to choose 3 words from the padlet and create a story. To do so they worked in a google doc shared with all the partners.




Using an online tool to write a story collaboratively has been a new experience for our students and they had to get used to it, respect what the other had written and be careful notto delete anything: a new task and a bit of a challenge fro them but also a very nice result!
