Movies and language activities

Within the etwinning project "Making Films, Making Friends" students are creating language activities on movies and on scenes from films they liked.
First they watched a film or a scene and then in groups they created language activities for their mates. To do so Italian students used the Learning Apps (https://learningapps.org/) while Norwegian students used kahoot (https://getkahoot.com/).

Here is a thinglink where we collected all their works. The blue tags are by Norwegian students and the green ones are by the Italian ones. The red tags are scenes from films they liked.




After having created the activities students played each other games and enjoyed a lot!

Here are Norwegian students playing games created by Italian students.

And here Italian students are playing a kahoot game created by Norwegian students. The quiz is about the movie "Animal Farm" based on the book written by George Orwell. 

1 smile makes 2 smiles: spreading happiness!

Let's play EU 60 games

Students from class II G of "L. Da Vinci - O. Nucula" school in Terni prepared a series of online games using the learning apps for their Spanish and French partners of the etwinning project called "Let's play EU 60".

First they read some info on the history of the European Union in class,



then they carried out a webquest to answer to some questions using their personal devices (which was possible due to BYOD guidelines)

and, after having found a lot of info they thought of some games and created them using the Learning Apps http://learningapps.org/

During this activity the students involved got to know the history of the European Union better, improved their English, used their creativity and had fun both creating the games and playing them.

Here is a thinglink with all the games created so far.
