My eTwinning Life
by Mihaela Gurita
I work in a small kindergarten with children from 3
to 7 years old. I am an eTwining user, registered
since 2008. I find many colleagues, from many
countries, so I like this platform for teachers.
Many projects, such as “Christmas spirit brought us
together”, “Let's find out more about our friends!!!”
or ”Child games and culture” made me keep in
touch with this platform, eTwinning.
Last year in mid-April they launched the 2013
eTwinning Spring Campaign. It turned out to be one
of the most successful ever. The goal of the
campaign was to extend the reach of eTwinning
within schools where teachers are already involved.
It was a competition to design a poster to promote
the event or eTwinning (in case it is not possible to
run a local event). Everyone with an eTwinning
account can vote on a poster. The top three posters
at the end of the competition won a HD pocket
camcorder. The information is here:
That same year Generations@school invited
teachers to organize an activity that was to bring
pupils together with seniors from their communities
to explore how dialogue between generations can
contribute to a better understanding of each other.
I participated with the little children. Our project
was “Without old people, it’s not a really past,
without children it is not a really future!”.
