eTwinning 6th grade

This month we are learning a lot about our seas and oceans. We shared some pictures of our beaches and we described them to our mates. We also created some "sandfriends" with Chatterpix and we cried out for help through these characters, asking our family and friends to take care of our oceans, seas and beaches.

And to learn even more about the problems our planet faces, we were very lucky to get in contact with Lara, a Greenpeace volunteer from the UK. We prepared many questions to ask her and we met her on a video conference. She made a presentation about what Greenpeace does and then she answered our questions. We loved it!

 Hi again! This month we are working on very interesting activities as well. First of all, we received a secret box. To be able to open it, we had to solve 4 tasks in a cooperative way. Once we solved them, we opened the box and there was a message in a bottle! The message was a piece of advice about recycling properly. We wrote our own message and we sent it to our partners in Greece. We hope they like our message!

And last week we got a letter from a little grain of sand that was complaining about how dirty our beaches are. Right now we are writing to it and we are trying to find solutions to the pollution problem. We hope the little grain will answer us back!

This January we are doing many different activities in our eTwinning project:

• -  A videoconference with students from Greece and from another school in Catalonia, where we write a story and the other students draw it.
• -   An escape room to be able to open a bottle that is travelling around Europe with our messages with ideas to help us avoid the plastic pollution in our schools.
• -  We are also creating rain meters to measure the rainfall from January to March.
• -   A pirate’s game: we are creating the cards to play a game against the pirates who have stolen part of our treasure.

 It's Christmas time! We created an advent calendar with our international partners and these days we are opening it. There are so many surprises!! There are recipes, riddles, songs and we are writing messages to thank our partners.

We are also finishing an infographic we are doing about Poland. We summarized the information the Polish students wrote on a shared Paddlet and now we are creating beautiful and useful infographics about their country.

eTwinning 6th Grade

 This month we are working on several activities: we are doing a research on our seas and oceans, we are creating a collaborative dictionary and we are also preparing an Advent calendar, where we will share some of our traditions, Christmas carols, riddles and many other things.

Last month we did many different activities on eTwinning: after working on eSafety and meeting the teachers, we played an exciting escape room to find out the coordinates of our underwater world location, and we found it!! It was fantastic!!

We also decided our group name, started designing our banner and we watched some tutorials to be able to use a programme to introduce ourselves. We keep learning a lot!

eTwinning 2020-2021 6th grade

 Hi! We are back in school again! And this school year we have a new eTwinning project in 6th grade: eTlantis, the Underwater World.

We are going to explore the oceans and seas, the different marine habitats and we will try to make a better world for all of us.

We started doing some activities about eSafety, and then we met the teachers from the different schools and countries we are going to work with: Slovenia, Greece, Italy, The Netherlands, Poland and Catalonia.

MAGIC TRICK

During this confinement, 6th graders are working really hard! This is one of the activities they prepared for all of you: a magic trick. First, they sent the written text to their teacher and then they recorded themselves doing the magic trick. They did a great job! Click on the book and enjoy!

PICTURES FOR OUR HEROES

In these difficult moments, there are some people who are our true heroes because they risk their own lives to take care of us and to safe our lives: doctors, nurses and the cleaning and grocery shops staff who make sure we don't get infected and who provide us food.

This is why we drew all these pictures to show them we care and to say THANK YOU!

THE MYSTERIOUS OBJECT!

After listening to the Radio Programme recorded by the school teachers, we played the game 'THE MYSTERIOUS OBJECT'. Students asked questions to guess an object. Every time they answered one question correctly, they received a piece of a puzzle. The object was hidden in the jigsaw. That was fun! Have a look at the Paddlet where we played the game:

We're going to repeat this activity with a NEW OBJECT! You did a GREAT JOB! CONGRATULATIONS!

GAMES FOR BLIND AND VISUALLY IMPAIRED STUDENTS

6th graders created some tactile games for the students who are blind or visually impaired. They made them for our eTwinning project and they recorded a video explaining how to play these games to our international partners. They were really creative and did a great job!

NEWCOMERS

Our next topic on the 6th graders eTwinning Project this school year is the newcomers and the refugees. The students interviewed their two classmates who just arrived from Honduras and Uruguay, Fernando and Rodrigo. We learnt how difficult life was there and why their families decided to come to our country. Welcome to our school!

CRISTMAS CAROLS FOR OUR ELDERS

Last Monday we visited some elder people who are in a nursery home and we brought them Christmas postcards and we sang Christmas carols to wish them Happy Holidays. It was a very nice experience!

TRAVELLING SHOES

The name of our project is "In Your Shoes" so one of the activities we prepared is a pair of travelling shoes for each international group where the students from each country are going to write words related to eTwinning, and then we will send them to another school. When the travelling shoes get to the starting point, we will collect all the words and write a collaborative poem with them.

INVENTION

After we interviewed Valentí, a blind person, we did a collaborative activity in which 6th graders had to make up a tool that could help improve a blind person's life. They had to do this with the international mates. They wrote the description together and then they tried to draw a picture of it.

INTERVIEW

Our eTwinning project talks about empathy and being in someone's shoes. What a better experience than to interview a person whose life changed forever after a hunting accident that left him blind. 6th graders had the chance to ask him all the questions they wanted and they are going to write an ebook with the answers to share it with our international partners. We loved the activity!

ADVENT CALENDAR

Christmas is coming! And to make it more interesting, 6th graders have prepared videos with Christmas carols, riddles, traditions and lots of different things to explain to our international partners how we celebrate the holidays. They have done the same and we will discover it every day through a collaborative Advent calendar.

ACROSTIC POEM

Last month 6th graders started a new eTwinning activity: write a collaborative acrostic poem. First, they chose a word related to empathy, they voted the one they liked the most, and with each letter, each international team wrote a sentence. We'll make a poem ebook with the results.

IN YOUR SHOES

6th graders carried on a very original activity on eTwinning. They brought shoes from their loved ones (parents, brothers and sisters, friends...) and they put them on. We took a picture and they shared with their international mates how they felt with those shoes on. They loved the experience!
