Module 4: Collaboration

Collaborative activity.
Students choose a building, monument, statue, etc from their town and they record it, at the same time they explain (audio) what building, monument, statue it is, why it is important for the town, what is its origin, etc. Then they share the video in a collaborative padlet. The other countries do the same.
Then students watch the different short videos and they try to find in their country a monument with the same characteristics (period, importance, etc). Then they present the "findings" to the other schools and they start a thread in forum to share opinions.

Module 3. Draft project

1. Name:
 Let's share our heritage
2. Abstract:
Students share the cultural heritage they have in their town making emphasis on a specific period and compare it with other towns around the world.
3. Goals:
Students will be able to talk and recognise what modernism is and give examples of Modernist buildings that they have in their town.
4. Work process: 
- Students show photos of  the different type of houses that exist in their town. They do this through a timeline.
- They choose a modernist building and create a puzzle, so that the students from other countries can guess what building it is and in what period it was created.
- The students from other countries do the same activity (they can choose any building, monument, archeological remains they have in their towns)
- They start a collaborative padlet describing buildings from their country which have the same characteristics as the pictures in the puzzle.
- Students have to look for monuments, buildings, geological remainings described by other countries in their own country.
5. Expected result
An e-book where all the "foundings" are collected. Then we can share the link in the centre webpage and we also can make a photo display in the centre.

Module 2. Portfolio

What needs or areas of improvement have I detected in my teaching?
I think the areas I have to improve is how to create and put into practice collaborative learning. It's a bit difficult work at the same time with people from other countries.
The projects I revised they didn't specify how to do this step.

LEARNING PORTFOLIO

Hello,
For this task I'm using one of the blogs I've already had.
I'm a beginner in etwinning: I started last year creating a project and joining to two more projects, but I realised there were some weaknesses in my project. This year I'm also participating in two projects in etwinning: " A drop of water" and "Water without borders".

My Bedroom

This is my bedroom

I like my bedroom. It is very big, the walls are white and the courtains are red. There are two lamps, one huge window and one bed. Do you like it? Can you describe your bedroom?
