Visibility of eTwinning Projects Group July 2013 Newsletter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ “Music is like a rope, it links people” was the slogan for “EUrope”. Its aim was to connect people through music. Students sang and played. They learned the languages of their partners and their cultures and danced typical dances. They presented bands, musical groups and orchestras and also buildings where people meet to learn or to hear music. We organized our own “EUro Concert” and we created a “EUro Hymn” about our towns. And because the title of the project was “EUrope” – EU+rope – we also developed several (fun) activities using ropes, as, for example, our unique “EUrings”, ringtones made out of rope sounds! http://europeonetwinning.weebly.com/index.html Now I’m finishing “Behind the music” project. Once again, the starting point is music but the activities planned may be related to music… or not! The project’s aim is to find out what’s behind the musical creation, i.e., what impels composers and songwriters to write their musical pieces or songs. Take a look at the project’s website and see for yourself what can be done. http://behind-the-music.weebly.com/index.html 72
