INTRODUCTION

The aim of the project is to know some things about Europe: Climate, physical features, languages, countries, European Union… The final project is a power point where the students must reflect what they have learned about Europe in an European country. They must follow a pattern that is the same for every student and they have scaffolding for the oral presentation.

To group the students I used different strategies, they have an European country and they have to find the capital, or they have the flag and they must look for the country... It allows the children to work with different stuedents every time.In this photos the students are ordering sentences about some countries.

This are some of the activities the students have done in previous lessons.

This is the scaffolding the students follow to do their oral presentations.

These are the results after doing all the lesson plan… I hope you like it!!!

MY REFLECTIONS Maybe it was not what it was supposed to do

buy it was really a good projects. Students used computers, they looked for information and they created a powerpoint. At the end they present their final project to the class.

I enjoyed it a lot and I think the students enjoyed it too and above all they learnt lots of things about Europe.

I’m sure I’m going to repeat it in the future using some of the resources we have learnt in the course.
