Through fairytales students have approached their country's folk tradition. Reading fairytales from another country has helped students to understand the similarities between different cultures and to recognise the cultural wealth each country carries. Fairytales have been a motivation for many activities in Language, Maths and Sciences. Finally, the joint book is the most important result of how this project enhanced students' tolerance towards diversity.

POLAND: The main goal of the project was to encourage students to learn English and to read. I was happy to observe the changes taking place in the students during the project, when the children readily read the legends and information about the culture of Poland and Greece. Their motivation to learn English as well as social skills and tolerance increased significantly.]]> 2018-08-03 16:23:11 UTC https://padlet.com/v_milioti/wael33yfjfnk/wish/271900774 natalia_kaminska1 https://padlet.com/v_milioti/wael33yfjfnk/wish/271901639 GREECE: Fairytales have been used as a tool to increase students' literacy and maths skills. First of all they used ICT to introduce themselves, search online and present their work. Also, through Reading Marathon they imroved their reading skills, while the Joint book helped them to use their imaginationation and practise their writing skills. Moreover,  through feedback activities students' maths and science skills were enhanced. Τhey learnt to find countries and capital towns on the map, practised on memory games and addition strategies, they got more familiar with "half and double". Finally, their vocabulary was enriched and they learnt to collaborate with each other and to express their opinion

POLAND:The implementation of the project significantly contributed to the development of the following skills of my students:
- social skills,
- fluent reading,
- counting over 1000,
- calculating the scale on the map,
- using new technologies in science,
- programming in Scratch,
- translating text from English into Polish and vice versa
- writing a story
- development of imagination
and many others.
I learned to assemble films and enriched my work technique.]]> 2018-08-03 16:36:24 UTC https://padlet.com/v_milioti/wael33yfjfnk/wish/271901639 natalia_kaminska1 https://padlet.com/v_milioti/wael33yfjfnk/wish/271902590 GREECE: The biggest challenge in our project was the lack of internet connection and generally ICT supply in our class. Moreover, the number of students (25), the workload and limitted time were a few more obstacles. Also, taking photos for twinspace, while helping students with activities have been hard sometimes

POLAND:The greatest difficulty during the implementation of the project was the time limit. I finished the project in class 3, with which I said goodbye on June 22. Works on the project were very intesive, but it was worth it. During the project, parents helped a lot, for example: they recorded a legend about the Wawel Dragon read by the student. We have conducted experiments on green energy at the Multicentrum of the City Library, which is equipped with solar panels. 
the most difficult for me was poor English skills.]]> 2018-08-03 16:52:04 UTC https://padlet.com/v_milioti/wael33yfjfnk/wish/271902590 natalia_kaminska1 https://padlet.com/v_milioti/wael33yfjfnk/wish/271904019 GREECE: If I had some more time I would like to do some activities about Energy with my students. We liked the feedback sent by Polish students abut eco-friendly forms of energy, but we had no time to do something similar. Also, realtimeboard.com and answergarden.com didn't work well for our activities, since after a while all our data was deleted.

POLAND: I would gladly carry out the project again, but I would spend a whole year on it. We would have more time to conduct interesting experiences or even more "cultural transfer". The children were very interested in Greek colleagues and asked a lot of questions, but there was not enough time to answer all of them.]]> 2018-08-03 17:13:08 UTC https://padlet.com/v_milioti/wael33yfjfnk/wish/271904019 natalia_kaminska1 https://padlet.com/v_milioti/wael33yfjfnk/wish/271904414 GREECE: I have participated in numerous eTwinning Projects and I always recognise the benefits for both my students and I. My students enjoy learning through collaborating, while they also get interdisciplinary knowledge which is the best implemented in society. As for myself, I learn new teaching methods and I enrich daily routine.

POLAND:This was my first eTwinning project. I will definitely implement the next ones. I learned a lot and my students were very involved in the implementation of activities.]]> 2018-08-03 17:18:48 UTC https://padlet.com/v_milioti/wael33yfjfnk/wish/271904414 natalia_kaminska1 https://padlet.com/v_milioti/wael33yfjfnk/wish/271905431 GREECE: I taught a class of students with very pour vocabulary. Through this project I learnt new methods to approach a text, like a fairytale, and make it more understandable for students. Also, the feedback activities gave us the chance to discuss about many subjects from different interdisciplinary aspects. It was nice to see the progress in the way students collaborated but the most important was that both students and teachers enjoyed learning through eTwinning.

POLAND: I really liked the motivation to act for my students. Suddenly, they were doing everything with pleasure: they were happy to search and read the legends for the rest of the class, calculated how many kilometers they had shipped from Olsztyn to Aspropyrgos, read the text of the first chapter of the book in English and wrote it into Polish and wrote the fairy tale continuations and tried to translate it with help translator.
I have learned a lot from Vicky Milioti. Thank you:)]]> 2018-08-03 17:35:01 UTC https://padlet.com/v_milioti/wael33yfjfnk/wish/271905431
