New eTwinning project

'We are reporters'

Our school has got a new eTwinning project titled 'We are reporters'
The members of our association are: Germany, Poland, Italy and Spain. The main objective is to develop a project about our town using ICT resources such as: video-conferencing, email, Padlet (collaborative wall), computers and projectors, tablets, different video editor programs, etc..

 We will work about our town: places to visit and important buildings such as Town Hall, Theatres, Cinemas, Supermarkets, Parks, Museums, Squares, Stations (bus, train…), sculptures, etc.

Students from partner schools will collect information to prepare power point presentations about some interesting places in their town. They will be reporters and they will write some reports to post on the blog and published in the school newspaper. Finally, they will make a school mural related to the topic.

  What is eTwinning?
