    ------------------------

     

    The primary school Planina pri Sevnici organised various activities and workshops and included them into a cultural day called Languages connect us and unite us.

    The programme started with the presentation of a parent who speaks several foreign languages ​​and worked on a cruise ship for many years. She talked about the importance of learning foreign languages ​​and illustrated some similarities and differences between individual languages. After that, the students had the opportunity to participate in several different activities. Students:

    - translated recipes of typical English, German and Slovenian desserts and prepared them at school,

    - sang in several languages,

    - participated in a language quiz and made some language challenges,

    - researched the old German names of villages and hamlets around Planina,

    - investigated the origin and frequency of surnames and names,

    - learned the basics of some European dances,

    - explored individual words in several languages ​​and visualized them,

    - helped to prepare the exhibition with all products.
