PROJECT DESCRIPTION 

Step 1
Introductory information about a partner teacher

Step 2 - details
First children learn about each other:

• age,
• place
• school
• interests
• hobbies

Then they:

• write letters about their favourite toys
• draw their favourite toys
• take pictures of their favourite toys
• make their own toys out of different materials
• use computers (Paintbrush, Paint it etc…) and draw their toys
• prepare exhibitions of their work in their school and exchange them with the partner school

The project might be carried out not only through e-mail but also through a regular mail (Please feel free to plan and decide what topic you will cover first. If you want you can make a proposal for the timetable for the others)

Topics that our children are going to discuss:

• write little riddles about their toys
• write letters, dialogues or notes about their favourite toys (children try to find as many interesting adjectives as possible to describe their toys)
• create dialogues about buying a toy and illustrate them
• write about their opinions
• make mind maps - label the pictures of their toys (parts of the body, colours, names)
• create little stories and illustrate them

Because it could be on-going project each school or teacher decides what topic will cover first and how often they will e-mail letters or projects.

Other project outcomes:

The deadlines:

It’s on-going project so there are no fixed deadlines. Partner schools may decide upon this themselves.
