i. Getting started - Two classes from two different countries gather information about their festivals and ceremonies - In each class, the children read and discuss the info they know in their mother tongue; - The pupils in each class establish the scenes to be illustrated and divide the work; - Pupils use various techniques to design/draw the scenes. ii. Exchanging information and learning from each other: - The pictures are photographed and scanned. Then, the classes exchange and print them. They organise an exhibition in their schools; - The digital pictures made by pupils in both classes are put together in a PowerPoint presentation; - Each class creates an audio track for the PowerPoint presentation version of the festival in their mother tongue; - Both classes listen to the description in their partners' language and compare the two languages
- More work on foreign languages can be done. Pupils may look for the same, similar or different words. They may also compare the language similarities or differences; - Partners decide on objects to produce. They should be related to the theme. - The festival is put on stage. The children perform it for their parents and other children from the school; - The project outcomes may be exhibited and presented to the local community; - Every child gets a CD with the festival and pictures from the project; - The project outcomes are shared with the press and at conferences for teachers.
