Today we have shared a series of activities together with the key competences we work with them.
I was very impressed by the story that Rita told us about the children who didn't go on the beach trip.  How hard it must be for a person to overcome such memories!

My idea for Tina's activity book:

My great-grandparents came by boat to Guadeloupe.

One day I was walking along the beach when I found a bottle with a message inside. In it I could read a story about the people who came to the island of Guadeloupe from Africa. Then they had to work very hard for a long time. Fortunately ...

I really enjoyed the practical part with the key compétences today and I have some ideas for my lessons straight away that I will try out with my students when I return.
Once again, this showed me that the exchange with other colleagues - and also outside of one's own school, school types and country - is sooo important! I hope to establish some such contacts for myself at home as well, because two (three, four...) brains and creative minds have more ideas than one.

My book examples:
- knowledge booklet about the lagoon (doublie page for général information, for history, for sealife & animals, for people working there, environnemental changes, …)
- Person and his/her life in and with the lagoon -> Luke the boatman
- Sea dweller: Lana, the little Lambis shell and the day a Spanish tourist almost caught her

I couldn't get a sentence from Rita out of my head today, which is not new, but so important: If you try something, it can go wrong. But if you don't try anything, nothing happens.
In German we have a saying for that: „Wer nicht wagt, der nicht gewinnt“. I looked in the dictionary, it also exists in English: "Nothing ventured, nothing gained."
Already on Monday, but at the latest from today, when there were concrete ideas and examples, my head was buzzing with ideas of what I could try at our school. Let's see if some of them become reality...

The story for Tina:
The wonderful journey of Maryam, the mangrove.

Maryam had a peaceful childhood in a giant mangrove tree in Cul de sac marine. Since José, her friend, passed away, she grew up and became stronger and stronger.
One day she fell from her tree and an exciting adventure began.

Today I learned how good the results of teamwork are when we are all involved in it. We have divided the task by key competences and each one has suggested an activity to work on with the same interest: the natural park we visited yesterday, Blue lagoon Sac de Cul Marine. So many good ideas for Spain! Thank you colleagues 😘. Besides, Rita made me understand what are the keys for a good international project: how to divide the work in the Erasmus team, how to find old partners, how to establish agreements, how to develop the calendar before the application... it has been really useful.

The key competences was the main thing for me today. I read the descriptions from the booklet and I really liked the practical approach that everyone in the group took with their prentations. And the funny thing was that I could have planned all of the lessons that we had - it feeled it so familiar with my teaching style! I will definetely use those at home and adapt key competences seen today with my culture.

One Angry little mantaray

There Is A little mantaray called Alrey living peacefully in the sea minding his own business. But one day A group of lion fishes wandered beneath the mangroves and the war began.

Today I learned so much about project work that I cannot begin to describe it. All the clever ideas my collagues gave us about key competence exercises will be treasured and used on future lessons. Not to mention how much more great ideas I have to share with my teacher students!

Here's my story for a booklet (Tina's entrepreneurship competence).

Carmela the Crab
Carmela lives in the shifting white, sand and enjoys the quiet and peace of her home. One day she feels a stomp and vibration and her house goes flying in the sky. Will she ever get back to the sand?

We shared lots of ideas about techniques and activities to include the different key competences with reference to Ilet de Caret.
Lots of them involved not only studying and researching the topic but being active and connecting with people and nature.
Once more I got many ideas that I want to implement in my classes, but to be honest I don't know when... Schedules and curricula are the basis of my work as a teacher, they guide me on what to teach though also restrict me and only give me little freedom to do more fun activities.
I would like to give my students more opportunities to discover things on their own, with me being more of a guide as well as a learner just like them.

My idea for Tina's book activity:

Ever changing island
Ilet de Caret changed frequently over the past centuries. From being an island inhabited by fishermen to being washed away by a hurricane.
This book tells the diverse and interesting story of an island that never stops evolving.
