First of all, Students have introduced themselves and their schools. We organized o logo contest. We have prepared a website which contains some samples of our works. Then, we wrote our happy new year wishes on a common padlet wall. Students have prepared happy new year cards for their friends. They wrote their daily routines to their diaries. After that, they talked about their likes and dislikes, their favourite foods, menu. Also, students have made research about partner countries' cultures and prepared presentations about cultures. Students have prepared slogans and written stanzas for a better world. They have drawn pictures about the green world they dream of and they have taken spring photos in their countries. These activities bring self-conciousness about their environment. Students celebrated each other's Children's Day. Finally, students have prepared presentations about their partners and i think, this was the best part, because from January to June, students have sent e-mails to their partners and they tried to know each other. So, they have used English actively and this activity have enriched their knowledge about different cultures, so this task opened gates to different worlds for students.
I was very happy to be a part of this project. There is a great collaboration and communication between partners. I and my students have also tried many Web 2.0 tools like tricider, linoit, padlet, weebly, kahoot!, kizoa, canva, popplet, logomakr. It was a great pleasure for me to be in this project.]]> 2021-06-11 14:37:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sinemselensamet/jv4s904ea71n1oq0/wish/1601212041 https://padlet.com/sinemselensamet/jv4s904ea71n1oq0/wish/1637063597 I really enjoyed working on this project. My students worked hard and improved their skills in English as they were so happy to exchange with other young people. They were keen on learning new vocabulary and uploading documents on the Twinspace. They also enjoyed discovering their partners' culture and daily lives.I think being part of such a project is a thrilling and enriching experience for everybody. Working with Aycan, Sinem, Katarzyna, Aygün and Maria was so rewarding: There has been so much cooperation, support and benevolence. Thank you for everything!]]> 2021-07-05 08:22:13 UTC https://padlet.com/sinemselensamet/jv4s904ea71n1oq0/wish/1637063597 https://padlet.com/sinemselensamet/jv4s904ea71n1oq0/wish/1640495296  During the course of the project students introduced themselves and their schools to each other, they got acquainted with their new partners. They created amazing logos which took part in the common logo competition. Students presented their everyday activities, favourite food, likes and dislikes using various e-tools and learnt about their partners’. We wished each other HAPPY NEW YEAR via presentations, cards and during online meeting. We have created a website with samples of our works. Students have studied about their partners’ culture, traditions, habits, history, famous people by preparing projects, pictures and online quizes which then were shared with other members. In January students got paired with their peers from partner countries and until June they wrote to each other, got to know with each other and finally they prepared common projects about their partners. Students loved their new friends a lot. Pupils raised their ecological and natural awareness by writing slogans about modern themes, writing stanzas For the better world common poem, taking photos of spring around them and drawing pictures about their dream green world. Partners also celebrated common Children’s Day. Thanks to the project students had a chance to practice English language with partners from other countries. They gained intercultural, collaborative learning skills. The project improved their self-esteem, patience, responsibility and teamwork. My students and I developed a lot of ICT skills and we learnt new web 2.0 tools. I appreciate all of my teacher partners and students for their great collaboration. I was inspired with teacher partners: Aycan, Sinem, Sophie, Maria and Aygun who motivated me with every task in the project. The greatest result for me was the fact that despite difficulties connected with pandemic, and working mainly online, teachers and students could cooperate well and complete the project with such flying colours.
