Hello,
Today we went to Hasselt to help the students with their presentation and their cultural activity. The students wanted to work on their own and went to the computers. We repeted what was expected of them and asked them which materials they would need with the presentation. After this, we felt that we were'nt needed there and went home.
Bye bye!

Hello,
Today we went to the primary school in Alken to observe the children and to do a little presentation.
Observation
I am in a group with Eva, Sofia, Maria and Marian. We are in class 5A.
The first thing i did when we got in the class, was to explain a little bit more about who we are and what we are going to do. The children were very enthousiastic about this.
After this, Eva and Sofia sang a Greek song to start the day with the children. We all liked it a lot.
Tour around the school
After the first break, we got the opportunity to get a tour in and around this beautifull school. The teacher of my class gave us a lot of interesting information.
The children of my class were having a lesson about cycling-skills.
This is a little garden that the children maintain. The plants have name cards so that the children can learn them.
Here you see a little vegetable garden that the children also maintain. When the vegetables are ready, they make soup with them.
On the next picture you see that this school attach importance to sorting of garbage.
Here you see some pictures of all the things that are in this school where they can play with:
In the afternoon we had a presentation of different countries. The children of the 5th and 6th class came to watch this.
Here are some pictures of it:
The students did a great job. The children enjoyed their performance and were motivated to work around a country.
In the classrooms the children could pick a country out of a sack with little letters. They now knew around which country they were going to work.
But that is for next week!
See you!

Hello,
Today we talked about the project we are going to do in the primary school in Alken.
Rudi gave us some more information about project-work and about what we are going to do in this school.
The foreign students had to think of a little presentation of their country, as a kind of advertisement. It had to motivate the children for this project. It could be a dance, a song, something typical...
The Belgian Students had to present this presentations on a original, nice way.
It didn't take long before everyone had some good ideas.
I am curious about tomorrow how it all will go!
Bye bye!

Hello,
Story - telling festival
Today we had a story-telling festival in the primary school in Bilzen.
Because of the decoration, the special effects and our great performance, were all the children really involved. They liked the story a lot!
For me it was the best end i could imagine for the story-telling modula!
See you!!!
Story - telling festival
Today we had a story-telling festival in the primary school in Bilzen.
We had to tell a story in English to pupils of the 4th, 5th and 6th class. We had to do it 3 times for different groups.
We had chosen to do a story about a woman who wanted to find her good luck.
We had a lot of fun while we performed!
I was the story-teller. This was a role in which i had to be a serious person. Itwas sometimes very difficult to hold on to my role, because there were a lot of funny things happening on the scene!
Eva was the head character. She played the woman and did a marvelous job at it! Lore had to be different characters during the play. It was really funny that she used different voices.
They made it really difficult for me not to burst out laughing!

Hello,
Today we listened to a lecture of Swedisch teachers about some good liturature such as 'pipi'. Afterwards we learned something more about their schoolsystem.
It wasn't very interesting. I found it hard to pay attention, because they told it on a monotonous, non original way.

The rest of the time we could spend on rehearsing the story which we are going to do tomorrow.
After a couple of times, we decided that it was good and went home.
I hope it will go well tomorrow!
Bye bye!

Afterwards we went to the art room and made some materials. Eva made a beard for the character of God. Lore and me made a cave for the decoration.
The other groups also made some things in the art room that were very pretty. Here you see one of those things:

Hello,
Today we had the first preparation for the story telling festival we are going to do in a primary school in Bilzen.
We had to make groups of 3 or 4 students. I am in a group with Lore and Eva. I'm very pleased with my group. We had to pick a story and prepare it.

We had chosen for the story of the man who was looking for some luck that we heard yesterday during the workshop of Daniel Morden.
We wanted to dramatize this story.
I told the story to Eva because she didn' t knew the story very well. After this we discussed what we had to do.
While the other groups still were discussing there things, we went to the computerroom to write the story down.
After the break, we went to another classroom where Anita reflected about the stroy telling- festival in Alden Biesen. She discussed with us where you have to pay attention to when you want to tell a story.
After this, we worked again a little bit more on the computer. We had a lot of fun, but after a while we were sick of it and decided to finish it tomorrow!
Bye bye!!!!
