Our pupils are excited. They are eager to connect through Google Hangout, Skipe or Whatsapp with pupils from other schools from othe countries.
First connections among teachers and pupils from different schools and countries were on December 2018. Children were sharing Christmas Carols and other songs and questions in english about how they were or the weather. Happyness was around all of us. It was great to meet our European partners.
Second connection was for showing a tipical Spanish tradition from our Cultural heritage: The celebration of Christmas Eve and the sound of the twelve bells and the twelve grapes. If you want to know a little more about it just have a look at our pupils explanation and demonstration on this video:
From 3 years old to 12th years old pupils, all tried to have a connection with the different schools to show and explain this tipical tradition in Spain with grapes and bells on New years´Eve. Everybody was ready with their fancy costumes and the 12 grapes for the connections:
Funny surprise from Ireland. Father Christmas was also connected!!!!
On January we could have other connections among school partnerts as for example Germany (Berlin) with Spain (Alcobendas). Pupils ask each others about their schools, names, weather, vacations etc. in English language. They enjoyed a lot.
