COD-5 2022: Session 7 by STOSKIENE RITA https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw Reflection and feedback. Write a short paragraph about what you have learnt today. Add your favourite photo and a quote of the day. en-us 2022-02-12 23:09:56 UTC 2024-03-30 17:52:53 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padletuploads.blob.core.windows.net/prod/6735307/a678eab476bfbdcd17400b6193ecb6f1/coral_m.png Rita rita100 https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/336393320 Learning together through experiences is my preferable mode of personal growth.  Learning with the colleagues, learning with the pupils and students, learning with the family members and witnessing the growth of each person - including yourself! 
As teachers we sometimes forget that our role is not just to teach and deliver, but to learn too! Many bright minds have often said - to learn is to live, to breath, to experience the joy of life. 
Some languages have the same word root for "learn" and "teach". Mokytis - mokyti (lithuanian), apprendre - apprendre (french) учиться - учить (russian) . Isn't it the same process? To share what we learn, to experience the growth together?
Whatever you do in your life - do not stop wonder at the marvelous things that surround you, be as curious as a child and be flexible in your learning journey. ]]> 2019-02-28 14:05:00 UTC https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/336393320 Anu https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2094691075 Today’s work was done under amazing surroundings. Live above and under see. Places like these remind us that world is place of unique wonders. Good talks with colleagues. Thinking about key competences and practices to do with students in international projects. Creative environment creates many ideas easily.

Nice to try to remember afterwards what we are doing in the chosen photo.]]> 2022-03-14 21:36:59 UTC https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2094691075 Megija https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2094880356 Today I had a chance to visit the Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin lagoon. It is an exceptional natural reserve. I learned that this lagoon is included in UNESCO. It is a home to many spieces of fish, molluses, reptiles, turtles and birds. Real life experience in nature helps to better understand how this biosphere works. I got a lot of new ideas how to teach my pupils about importance of saving our planet.]]> 2022-03-15 00:56:20 UTC https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2094880356 Rita https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2094902546 Learning with others, observing and exploring the environment around us today has been the best learning experience]]> 2022-03-15 01:11:13 UTC https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2094902546 Aydan session 7 https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2094920574 Today I learned that the world is a vulnerable place which we have to take care of. The coral reefs need to be protected.  I was very surprised that while we were at the mangroves another boat came very close. They tied a rope around a branch. People should be made aware that they can damage the environment.  ]]> 2022-03-15 01:22:20 UTC https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2094920574 Judith jvdspek01 https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2094923698 La vie est belle
Today I’ve learned (again) how beautiful life can be with the simplest of things. ]]> 2022-03-15 01:24:19 UTC https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2094923698 Lonneke https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2094949747 Session 7

Today I learned that the coral has less color without the right light.
 I surprised myself that, although I always think I go by my own experience, I really expected coral to have a lot of color.  This has been taught to me because I have seen photos and documentaries where coral has all kinds of colors.  It gives me even more drive to teach my students to be and remain critical.  Go by your own experience and not follow group behaviour.  Don't take everything blindly.

It was an extraordinary experience to be the first group to arrive on Ilet Caret this morning, everything and everybody was so "tranquille". And again we had the perfect "classroom with a door to the world"!]]> 2022-03-15 01:44:20 UTC https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2094956093 Danguolė https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2095042696 Ilet Caret is a tiny island to the northeast of Basse Terre in Guadeloupe surrounded by gorgeous, clear water. It’s really a magical place where you can have a swim, go diving, snorkelling and surfing while enjoying a rich biodiversity of countless species of fish living there. I loved a tour on the mangroves  where I could admire baby fish which feel safe there  and the different varieties of birds that populate this exceptional vegetation.  I tried snorkelling close to mangroves and that wasn’t such a scary experience as it seemed from the first sight. I could have been brave enough to go snorkelling above the shipwreck! ]]> 2022-03-15 02:41:42 UTC https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2095042696 Petteri https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2095056316 Keep our nature alive and it can be fun. Wow, the endangered lagoon has been declared a nature reserve for a reason. Being there, on an isolated island made me realize that the human would not survive there without the ecosystem: our lungs and natural protection live and grow there in the ocean. The dead turtle might act as an example if things go worse. There was some much to see!]]> 2022-03-15 02:50:39 UTC https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2095056316 Raquel https://padlet.com/rita100/5zarqjoyt92ekwfw/wish/2095203155 “Incredible privilege that will leave you with unforgettable memories”
Today it has been one of those days that you would want to keep fresh in your mind forever. L’îlet Caret, from the turtles “Karet” or “Carette”, fine white sand made out of dead coral and continuously shape changing. The mangroves, whose roots prevent bigger fish to enter, acting as a nursery… ecosystems that are classified World Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. A balance between the tourist development in the area and our natural heritage must be our main objective to preserve natural reserves like The Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin in our planet.
