-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------had to choose one theme and work on it. They used
Titanpad to collaborate. Then they had the choice
among different tools to prepare their presentation.
Tutorials were, of course, available to help! But
they couldn’t use the same tool twice.
In March and April, each team had to choose and
present an Olympic sport. Here again, they had to
discuss together and have a common agreement on
the sport.
In May, we finally ended by organizing our own
Olympic Games. The teams had three different
activities. The first activity was about creating a
new logo. To choose the best ones we asked our
colleagues teachers of drawing to select them. For
the second activity each member of the teams had
to take as many photos as possible of people
practicing a sport. The photographs had to be real,
I mean not coming from the internet.
At last, they had to write as many words as
possible in the language they learn about the
Games. They did it with Padlet. After these three
weeks, he had a final ranking and the winners got a
little gift. We also prepared an evaluation of our
project to end it up.
All our students were really enthusiastic about this
project. They worked and communicated via the
TwinSpace. They also wrote mails, they chatted and
some of them had contacts on other social media.
We got the eTwinning Quality Label for our project.
Here is the list of the tools our students used in
their activities:
