JANAURY: (presentation)

FEBRUARY: (the environment around us)

1. Students will take pictures of different buildings, trees and landscapes  in their environment. We can use tripadvisor.com to make a common presentation of the different buildings and jigsawplanet.com to create some puzzles. A photo gallery is made using different tools (padlet, kizoa, smilebox…).
2. We will teach students basic vocabulary connected to the environment and create a sort of dictionary in the different languages.

 

MARCH: (animals and wildlife)

1. Each country will deal with the topic and we will create a sort of survey about our pets.
2. Photograph competition: pupils take photos of their pets/plants. The best photo will be selected as the image which will be in a poster with an educational message.
3. Pupils will identify the animals in the book/film and characterize them. They will work collaboratively in international teams in order to create an Animal glossary. We could use voicethread.com recording the names of the animals in different languages.
4. Pupils will  work in small groups, select an animal/plant in danger and will give information about it. They will “create” a new animal collaboratively.
