Under the Ocean - Italy/Finland cooperation

We are happy to present Under the Ocean, the final product of the Italian/Finnish cooperation! Students at the Italian partnerschool Instituto Comprensivo Marco Ulpio Traiano in Rome wrote the script and it was realised by students in class 7B at Botby grundskola in Helsinki with the help of their art teacher Kent Söderström. This was a very fun project and we are very pleased with the results. Hope you enjoy the little animation!

Before travelling home to Germany



I´d like to share my impressions of the meeting with you ...

We all drive home with a very good feeling for the project ... many things to be deeply grateful ... the small Spanish team had done everything possible to make the meeting and the whole time as exciting and convenient as possible, being our guides, trainers, translators, organizer, animators all the time and helping to solve any small problems or misunderstandings as quick as possible... Thanks a lot for all off you and also thank you for the very professional organization of the week which absolutely followed the application and outline  ..I´m not sure if the German meeting will be able to do the same ....

Thanks to all of you for keeping Paula the feeling of being a strong member of the team - she liked all of you very much and it helped her a lot  on her way get self confidence and competence 

Thanks to the guest families who were more than hospitable,... today I had the chance to spend some hours with Paula´s host family including the very charming Patricia and the host family of the Belgian team, too - it was a wonderful afternoon, I enjoyed it very much and had much fun ...I´m very happy to meet Patricia in Belgium again  ...

Not to be forgotten :

* Wonderful impressions of San Sebastian with very nice houses, cool shops and cafés, an impressive coast
* Very delicious food, especially at the teacher´s dinner, ...maybe the next time the beer mugs could be a bit bigger :)
* The pelota session which made me burning more calories than I got by emptying this tiny beer mug ...
* The cool School Jazzband with the dynamic trombone player with the green hair ... very professional, they could have played much longer
* Presentations, Videos and other material which was very informative and attractive and will be part of the homepage within the next days ...
* very motivating feedback to my presentation of the homepage which indeed is a summary of our COMMON WORK, just arranged by me
* the very soon reunion with Jola - just 3 weeks after my trip to Lublin - I´m so happy to have such a warm-hearted friend as you ..


my wish until the next meeting :

Let´s do all to keep motivation high and feel as a strong community which is able to improve our school´s reality (at leat a bit),

d.

"Portraits" in Helsinki

Dear EMB partners!

Welcome back to a new school year! Here at Botby grundskola in Helsinki we started school already  in the middle of August and we have been looking forward to working on the Erasmus Minus Bullying project for some time already! Let's hope for a fun and fruitful second year!

Here below you can see the work of art "Portraits" produced by our students during the project meeting in Helsinki in May. The painting hangs on the wall in our school and is a wonderful reminder of the third project meeting held in Helsinki 4-8.5.2015!

Storybirds

During the 3rd project meeting in Helsinki, students worked in mixed international groups and created poems and small stories around the theme of tolerance and friendship with the help of Storybird. Here below you can enjoy some of the poems. Considering the little amount of words available, the results are amazing! Well done!

Student activities Thursday 5th May


Our day started with a workshop held by Mirjam Malik.  We discussed different aspects of bullying and talked about different ways to prevent bullying.








The students got to discuss how they would react and what they would do in different bullying situations.







Storybird


We were divided to different groups in which we made poems and stories. We used different pictures to create the stories.

Music workshop




Kati the music teacher led a music workshop for the students. In the workshop we did different rhythmical activities and we prepared a song for the music festival which is on Friday. 

Singing was fun but the “dancing” and clapping made it confusing

Erasmus Minus Bullying update from Poland

Some activities we have done since the unforgettable meeting in Greece:

  • Marta and Ola, the girls, who are taking part in the meeting in Helsinki, were often practising the song they will perform during EMB festival.

  • We are very proud to inform you that we were invited to a special conferece for schools taking part in Erasmus+ projects this school year. The aim of the conference is to promote Erasmus +. We are going to display logos and posters, show other materials and presentations from the meetings. The conference is next week and we are working hard to present Erasmus Minus Bullying in a proper way. There will be many teachers and students not only from our city, Lublin but also from our region. We will do our best to be convincing Erasmus Minus Bullying ambassadors.

  • A few weeks ago the Erasmus Minus Bullying writing competition was announced at our school. The students were supposed to write a play for the meeting in Helsinki. The task was pretty challenging, as the play should have been written in English. Our students submitted nine plays! The authors are first and second graders, 6 girls and 3 boys. We are satisfied with our young playwrights creativity and it was really difficult to choose the text which will be performed by partner school. We are happy to announce that it will be a play written by Ola Portka from class 2f. Well done!

  • Erasmus Minus Bullying is an important part of a special celebration, which is being prepared by our school psychologist Anna Osemlak and a group of kids at the moment. The celebration is called "A Day Without Violence" and it will take place next week. It will be presented to students and teachers. The kids from our school, who won prizes for EMB logo, poster, song and play at our will be given prizes and diplomas. Nikola and Michał, the students, who participated in the meeting in Greece, will share their thoughts and impressions with our school community.

  • We organised a special meeting for 30 class teachers at our school to show them the results of Erasmus Minus Bullying survey. The results were presented by English teacher, Michał Szewczyk. A discussion followed. Many conclusion were drawn from the analysis of results.

Class teachers' meetings - presenting the results of EMB survey.
