'How to take action to help the environment'
Our new eTwinning project has been approved. We are ready to work!
About the project:
2020 is the year of Climate
Change and Environmental Challenges and because of this we are going to develop
a project about environmental care. It is important to ask why we must take
care of our planet. People use more natural resources than the planet is able
to produce and the rubbish is harming the environment. For instance, plastic
and its effects on our planet and human health. Through the project, students
will look for information about the main environmental problems around the
world and in their own region or town. They will learn about the sustainable
development goals (SDGs) of the United Nations. They will work in groups, take
photos, make banners, prepare some presentations and present them to their
partners by using ICT resources. They will make some art projects (marine &
terrestrial animals) with recycled materials to display them. They will post
their presentations on the blog and Padlet, do video-conferences and prepare a
final exhibition to share all the outcomes.
