Down the chocolate road: the poster

During the second half of this school year students of class I A worked on this project searching for info about growing cocoa, the cocoa tree, the history of chocolate, cocoa growing countries and recipes. They worked in small groups and realized files using word and powerpoint. After that they printed their works and realized this poster.



Both students of class I A and I B worked on "chocolate stories": they worked in groups of four and created a story using comics. These stories have been collected in a paper book and in an e-book.



They also sent and received delicious chocolates and you can see some photos in these smilebox slideshow.

Down the chocolate road: an eTwinning project for first year students

First year students of Giove are involved in an eTwinning project called "Down the chocolate road".
The main objectives of the project are:
- share the knowledge of different European towns where chocolate is produced;
- be aware of the healthy sides of chocolate, its origin and production of it around Europe and in their towns;
- make friends with students around Europe, share their languages and cultures,
- exchange chocolates.





To realize this video students searched for words in the internet, then created word clouds using "worlde" (http://www.wordle.net), exported the clouds as images and uploaded them in "animoto" (https://animoto.com)
