Eastern European Countries Project-F’ Greek Primary School

These are the final Projects that the F1 and F2 students of the 4th Pefki Primary School produced. The idea came forth based on the content of Unit 1  in our English School Book.

The main aims of this Project were to make students:

  • develop a basic knowledge of the geography of the Eastern European Countries
  • collect, organize and display information about a selected Eastern European Country in English
  • use the vocabulary of geographical features and various nationalities in English
  • collaborate

We spent 80 minutes approximately plus the extra time students needed to complete their list of information at home.

STEP 1

The students:

  • checked the map and spotted the Eastern European Countries
  • completed a list of the names of these countries and the corresponding nationalities

STEP 2

The students:

  • were introduced with the Project idea and formed groups of 4-6
  • were assigned a specific country through a grab bag process
  • were shown the graphic organiser that they would have to complete
  • noted down the categories of  information that they would have to collect
  • assigned these categories among them in each group

STEP 3

The students worked individually at home to collect information with the help of their F’ Class Geography Books and any other source available.(Unfortunately, there was a problem with the internet connection at the school computers room, so we weren’t able to use the internet at school.)

STEP 4

The students:

  • brought the information back at a following date and completed their graph
  • coloured the landforms pictures, wrote the greek translation and pasted them as a frame around the Project template, which was a piece of pinboard paper roll.
  • made any improvements needed to the whole presentation

WELL DONE STUDENTS!
