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.

Making Films, Making Friends!

Students of class III G will be involved in the eTwinning project "making Films, Making Friends" together with students from France, Norway, Portugal and Poland.



The main aims of the projects are: 

- to work in international teams
- to share ideas and methods of work both among sts and teachers
- to use ICT
- to create stories in English to create a short film
- to improve English writing and speaking skills
- to get to know other EU countries and cultures
- to broaden students' horizons through realizing we are part of a bigger community: the UE
- to make EU friends

So the pupils will work with peers from Europe and will realize short stories and short movies out of the stories.

As a start we create the map of our project and we will continue introducing ourselves.
