Creations of our pupils of the 3rd Level from the  11th Primary School of Ilion , Athens – Greece.

A project in order to be effective needs the collaboration of all the members that participate, more than anything else.  Theodora Chandrinou as a founder from Greece shared the idea of the theme with Esparanza Caro Perdigón from Spain and  with the children all together we made this project become real. Congratulations to all our students that worked with fervor and creativity!

Esperanza and Theodora are good friends since their studies in the “Facultad de Bellas Artes de Universidad Comlutense de Madrid“,  from almost 20 years!!! This precious friendship  they do  keep it and are enlightening it to their students. This project is the gift of precious cooperation, respect, appreciation  and of deep  concern. Human values that through Art and Education we make the effort  to transmit as a cone stone for  our evaluation as  persons in the society .

Thank you !

EVALUATION FROM THE PUPILS

There are many things that we all received from the e-Twinning experience. Our first aim was to create pleasant, positive memories for the pupils.

The most important and motivating for me was the deep contact level that was achieved in the relationship with the children that participated in the project. The lessons aquired a friendly and cooperative spirit. Children were giving me inspiration and courage. My creative pupils until the last days were ready to join me in a new theme for our European project. Their positive reaction was an expansion of Art creations!

In the evaluation form that they were given to the children we point out their enthusiastic  and thankful comments :

“Thank you for the beautiful things that we learned this year!”,

“I have  new friends from Spain now!!!”,

“Thank you e-Twinning”,

“I will travel and visit Spain one day”,

“I love the Art lesson!!!!”,

“Please , can we do that project next year, too?”,

“This was the best School year of all!”,

“We created so beautiful things with my friends in the classroom. The recycling was my favorite. We made a video for the pupils in Spain!!!”.

The pupils, also, tought their Teachers with their collaborative skills and attitude that presented increased after  the project was completed.
