It deals with rise students awareness about environmentl situation, problems resolutions skinlls development, communication and cooperation among peers, group work and creativity. The project combines the idea of working on Kamishibai theatre and protecting our environment. 

The students have written a story in their national language concerning the environmental issues in their countries: endangered species, protection of life on land, promotion of ecological lifestyle, which will be the script of the kamishibai theatre for example some adventures of an animal character. The script will consist of 10 cards: 10 cards with a text (400-500 words) and 10 A5 cards with illustrations.

Students will translate the story into English.

The translated stories will be sent by email into the project partners - Poland to Turkey - Turkey to Spain - Spain to Poland.

The Students will make illustrations to the stories.

Students will perform the stories to their peers.

Congratulations on your beautiful work, dear Polish and Turkish friends!!!

To celebrate the end of the term, I had the pleasure of going on a trip with the 5th grade to visit the Nao Victoria in Sevilla! In science classes, we’ve been learning about the Age of Discovery, including about Fernando Magallanes and his trip across the Pacific Ocean, so it was wonderful to see our learning brought to life with this replica of one of the ships that attempted the voyage. Our visit started with a tour around the ship, where we were able to see where the sailors worked, ate, and slept. Whilst it was incredibly interesting to learn how dozens of men managed to live and work together in such small quarters, the students and I all agreed that we wouldn’t want to live like that ourselves! We then moved on to the museum, where our tour guide explained in detail the entire journey from start to finish. Using an array of maps and globes, we were able to learn more about each of the places that the sailors stopped at and the difficulties that they faced on the journeys in between. We finished off the day with eating our snacks on the lovely Sevilla riverside, next to the Torre del Oro, before returning to Dos Hermanas for a well deserved Semana Santa break!
