Our story: first task (creating the protagonists)

  • Dear students,

    let's start our collaborative writing!

     

    Here is the first task:

    Our story starts at two different places: in Portogruaro and Wilhelmshaven.

    In each town lives one of our two heroes (a hero and a heroine?). They don't know of each other (until now...).

    But for both persons, our story starts with a strange thing: either with a dream or with a letter (each partner school can choose which alternative they prefer). The persons tells about this dream or about this strange letter. He / She tells about three pictures of places and things which our protagonist saw never before, but which he / she sees in the dream or as photographs in the letter. - The pictures show: a place, a thing, a god or magic creature. While our hero / heroine tells his / her story, the reader learns: a) about the name, age and home town of the narrator  b) about his / her family and character  c) about strange events which happened to our narrator.

                     -> Dear students from Wilhelmshaven, please, write the chapter which takes place in Wilhelmshaven!

                     -> Dear students from Portogruaro, please, write the chapter which takes place in Portogruaro!

    Preparation:

    Dear students from Portogruaro, please, upload three pictures which the students from Wilhelmshaven should describe in their chapter:

    Dear students from Wilhelmshaven, please, upload three pictures which the students from Portogruaro should describe in their chapter.

    The pictures must show:

           1.  a place in your town (e.g. a park, the door to your classroom, a window of the town hall, a bridge, ...)

           2. an object (you choose what kind of object...)

           3. a statue or symbol of a god or magic creature that can be seen somewhere in your town (e.g. the car of a parcel service called "Hermes";  

               the head of a god or hero at an ancient building; ...).

    Let's see which pictures you send to your partners  - and how you will integrate the pictures of your partners into your chapter.

     

    Good luck and much success!
