New Year

The theme of the second transnational meeting was New Year. 2 students and 2 teachers from every school joined it: the teachers who were active in the eTwinning project and the students who participated in the theatre workshops. This mobility was focused on "Past tenses", "Traditions" and "Celebrations" in English Lessons, Drama, and Evaluation. The project activities were integrated in the normal curricula of the involved schools.The mobility included sharing  games related to "Traditions" and "Celebrations", games that were prepared at each partner school and played. During the meeting, the students created and performed plays related to the above-mentioned topics.
