    The teachers explain and organize work.  The teachers add their pupils to TwinSpace – it is advised that all the pupils were added with ending typical for each country, e.g. Anna KowalskaPL, so that others know who they communicate with. The students start work.
    • The students have to introduce themselves on the forum (TwinSpace), they should also update their profile.
    • The students in groups, pairs or individually must choose a work of art (it could be a painting or a sculpture)by an artist from their country.
    • They find out information about the artist and make a description of the work together with a photograph. All must be written in English. DEADLINE: NOVEMBER 15TH

    Summary: The Project consists on a mixture among art, English and ICT. The aim is to analyse a work of art chosen by a group of students or an individual student who will then represent and interpret it through a photograph or a video. Then we will share it in twinspace where all the participants will be able to watch them and show them in their classes. Every term we will choose the best of each age and at the end there will be a contest among those chosen in each term to reach the schoolyear winners.

    Notes

    1. There are different files in Twinspace for each category. The categories of participants will be the following:
      • Less than11
      • 11-13
      • 14-16
      • More than 16
    2. The representation of the work of art can be made in different ways, it can be made with people but they can also use only objects. They can use costumes, make-up, objects, etc. They can upload photos or videos.
    3. Although all the works will be uploaded to Twinspace, every school must choose only one for each age to enter the term competitions.
    4. The different prizes must be given by the winners’ schools.

    Communication activities

    The teachers will add threads to forum on TwinSpace, where the students could collaborate and post their discussions.  Pupils should follow the threads and take active part in the forum.
