Task 1: Mystery Skype

  • It would be nice if by the end of October we manage to organize as many Mystery Skypes as possible. If you want to participate in this activity, visit THIS PAGE and fill out the table. If your team coincides with another team, schedule a meeting HERE.
     
    After the meeting is done, post your photos, presentations or videos HERE  and invite your students to join us.

    This is the map of all our virtual trips by Skype. 

     

       

    We have had our first meeting!!! 

    I get the contact with Colegio Ruiz de Luna only 5 minutes before the meeting,  calling the school. They had sent me the contact of other teacher and I hadn't seen. 

    Just at the beginning , we have had technological problem ( we hadn´t listen them) but we had used imagination!!! We had written questions in paper and in screen and had used our bodies for show our answers  and even spelling words!! 

    The surprise of found the country are very funny. And, after that, like we are near town we go on whit mystery Skype guessing our twon. 

    OK for me, genial for my student ( they had been told that I presented the country that they had to guess)

    Surprise, fun and learn!!  We celebrate with this Skype the European languages day.

    We only have to review sound problem and position of student for next time. 

    Thanks a lot Emilio , Sandra and Jelena for doing this possible .

    We have had our first Mystery Skype today.

    The technical problems have helped our colleagues to guess where we were from, but it has been a plesure to meet you, although we had to disconnect the image in order to be able to hear them!

    Tanja, Emilio, Sandra, me and our teams had our 1st Mystery Skype.

    Despite some technical issues we really enjoyed it! We even sung to each other  

     

    Despite the technological problems, every day we do better and this time if we communicate with our partners and everyone had a great time.
    Thanks Jelena

     

     

    On Saturday, October 6, Katerina and I have met online and had a brief chat before our meeting with students. 

    It was so fun and exciting! We enjoyed every minute of it!!!

     Daniela and I had a meeting in the evening. Preparation for the Mystery Skype turned into the hour of friendly chat 

    For the Serbian team, today's task was hardest so far  But we enjoyed it and had a great time with lot of laugh.

     

    There was no mystery at today's Skype, but we really enjoyed and had fun!

     

    Any thecnical problem this time!! Internet, sound and image are ok since the beginning. 

    Only  an  initial problem with the hour of meeting that we solved with the great illusion of both countries: Spain used its rest  time and Rumania had get  ready some minutes before the "supposed" meeting hour.

    The students are wonderful , with their questions, answers,  quik  right guess and the explanation of their argument.

    And we have two big surprises:

    -Can you see a "adult student" hidden in the photos? She is Elena, our teacher of Romanian language , she want to attend our skype because...she is from Cluj-Napoca too!! 

    -A romanian student was born in Madrid

    We feel so closely .... A short time, what's a pity!!

    For the Romanian team it was a very pleasant meeting with the Spanish team. We were lucky to find the name of the country after two questions, but then we found out new things about the the school program in Spain and we talked with Elena, a Romanian teacher who is teaching Romanian Languge in their school. There are many families from Romania who work in Spain.

    Every Skype is special and unique, but this one carried a big surprise! Thanks partners, it was great! 

     

     

    Short but sweet! We had a great time!
