eTwinning project on EARTH DAY
Here are the students' ideas on the topic.
"My students were really impressed when they heard about the number of planets Earth we would need, 4.1, if everybody produced the same carbon footprint as we do, 7.5t. That is a lot of damage to the world. This means that we are consuming and wasting resources at a rate that exceeds what the Earth can sustainably provide. This is a reflection of our unsustainable way of life and a desperate need to find a solution. Our planet's health and well-being will be severely compromised if we continue consuming, wasting and contaminating as we are doing at the moment. We must use more renewable energy and follow the rule of the three Rs: Recycle, Reuse and Reduce. If do not all collaborate now, future generations will not enjoy a proper life."

This is a project carried out by the bilingual students from 2° ESO. Students had to work in pairs and choose an English-speaking singer.They had to present a voice they liked in front of their mates, they had to talk about the artist's musical career, to make a technical classification of the chosen voice and select one of his/hers songs to create a QR code. The most important info of this presentation was displayed on a cardboard, adding a picture of the artist and the selected song QR. They had to show respect for each other's musical taste, and their teamwork was also taken into account.
By means of a padlet, the students from 2ndA ESO explain some of the environmental problems in the world and make some suggestions to help save the planet.
1ESO and 2ESO students have joined a project with other European schools to send each other Christmas cards. There have been schools from Turkey, Poland and also the Canary Islands. 1ESO students sent traditional Christmas cards to their European friends and 2ESO students used Genially as the resource to communicatie with a Turkish school.

These are some of their opinions:
"My opinion of Christmas Cards from Tenerife is wonderful. The text on the cards is very special and so funny. The cards are very decorated and the text doesn't have many mistakes. You can tell other people your Christmas traditions"
"I like the activity because it's an original and interesting idea".
"The Christmas Card project was an amazing and unique activity. It was actually really nice to get to talk to other people and decorating the cards was amazing. It was so much fun!".
"I think it is a good project. You can improve your English and you have a great time speaking to different people around the world".

This is the link to the Padlet we created on the project 'THANKSGIVING festivity'. Two schools: IES GSR and IESO Tomás Bretón (English & Music departments), and three groups of students from 2º ESO Bil participated. They wrote thank-you notes, decorated turkey shapes and wrote the lines of the beautiful poem 'Remember' by Joe Harjo on them. This poem was also recorded by the students at IESO Tomás Bretón in their music classroom. Besides, they recited some poems and presented some typical Thanksgiving food. (November 2022)
A few students from 2A ESO did some research on the following discoveries (U.2) and made Ppoint presentations in front of the class: (November 2022)
