A year ago the 1st and 2nd Primary Schools of Akrata along with Aigeira Primary School participated in the video challenge ‘I love my hometown’ hosted by the Greek School Network. Each school had to make a video that presented its hometown. In our case, all three schools worked together and collected material to present the area. The pupils of the 1st and 2nd Primary Schools of Akrata even wrote the captions in English during the English lesson. The video came out really nice. Let’s remember it:

Making a cheese pie: this one is tough!
Here’s what they did:
They discussed in groups and came up with a full Greek menu consisting of two appetizers, a salad, a main dish and two desserts.
The morning after: the chicken before it was devoured by the kids !!!
The Greek salad was eaten on the spot! It smelled awesome!
The apples are ready to get into the oven!
They asked their mothers to give them the recipes.
They wrote the recipes in English in groups.
M-Star created this beautiful photo of their menu.
They executed them in class and recorded them on camera. Some of them was reading out the recipes, while the other ones were either acting it out or recording it!
Cooking, reading, recording- juggling everything at once! Wow!
The preparation was so fun! We had many laughs while making the food! Their classmates got lucky, too, as they tasted the food the next morning! They didn’t even let the teachers have a bite! They absolutely loved the dishes!!!

But today they published their first posting !!! A quiz!
They did a great job! After reading about Lady Decay in their book and making a teeth craft, they made a quiz with questions about how we take care of our teeth, based on what we discussed in class. They wrote the questions with their groups on the computer on their own! They also decided about the results and chose a nice photo for their posting.
Excellent work, class C’ and such and interesting quiz!

Pancake Day at school
Κατηγορία 1st Primary School of Akrata, Culture, Projects, projects 2011-2012, Teacher's Announcements , στις 29 Φεβρουαρίου 2012 από Lenia KOn February 21st it was Shrove Tuesday in the UK. In order to learn more about this special day -the last before Lent- and compare it to the Greek customs, class ST’ had a special pancake day lesson on Friday 24th.
It was a pancake extravaganza!
Class ST’ worked overtime!
They wrote a pancake recipe, solved a Shrove Tuesday quiz, prepared tons of pancake batter, cooked pancakes, presented a short theatrical play, organized a pancake race for the whole school to compete at and drew the winners’ prizes: wooden spatulas.
The theatrical play was very interesting and fun and the pancake race was absolutely hilarious! All classes, the kindergarten, AND the teachers took part!
I don’t need to tell you about the pancakes…they were delish! Yummy!!!
It was an amazing day and everyone had lots of fun thanks to class ST’ !
Well done, class ST!
It was a day to remember!

Chat with our Polish friends
Κατηγορία 1st Primary School of Akrata, eTwinning 2011-2012, Far away, So close, Projects, projects 2011-2012 , στις 5 Φεβρουαρίου 2012 από Lenia KOn Friday, 3rd February, the pupils of class ST’ talked about their daily routines with their Polish friends on the ‘Twinspace’. They used a tool called ‘Chat’. Their communication took place from 9:oo-9:40 am.
It was an amazing experience!
At first, they were anxious to begin and when they did, they were excited to recieve their Polish friends messsages. Every time a Polish group joined the chat they screamed: ‘Fabulaz Girls are in!!!’ . Then, similarly when they got a message they said to one another: ‘They replied!’ .They came to me telling me what their Polish friend wrote them in enthusiasm!
The Polish pupils were just as enthusiastic , although they were a bit worried about their English! Their teacher, Mrs Monica wrote :
They were thrilled when they discovered that there are so many similarities between Polish and Greek students! “They like sports, just like we do!”, “They love cats! We love animals, too!”, “I wrote them I like chocolate and they answered that they also like it!”. There were also some disappointments: “Yyy… they like Justin Bieber… He isn’t so popular in Poland…” or “Hmm… They don’t play computer games as often as we do… they don’t even know the names of games popular between us!”
We said goodbye to our friends, hoping to meet them online again.We left the computer lab talking about how good use of technology can bring people together…Think about it…There was a class at the same day and time somewhere in Europe, so far away from us yet so close…
