PINOCCHIO
Although the project partners were unable to meet in person due to epidemiological conditions, during the 2020/2021 school year a number of online activities took place within the Erasmus+ project "Power of Fairy tales and stories on literacy and language skills". Team coordinators exchanged ideas, planned cooperation and presented student works at regular meetings. Together with schools from Sweden, Slovenia, Turkey and Romania, we got to know the fairy tale about Pinocchio. Our youngest students had the opportunity to watch a cartoon about Pinocchio, to review the names of body parts in English and also to talk about examples of good and bad behavior, responsibility and obligations that were seen in the story. They made paper puppets of Pinocchio which were displayed on the Erasmus+ board.

During the time of the pandemics, project activities were performed online. At one of the partners’ meetings, the project coordinators suggested and all the partners eagerly accepted that the theme of the next activity should be Superheroes.
Elementary school „Heroj Radmila Šišković“ from Serbia involved Grade 4 students into this activity. Fourth grade students had the opportunity to show their creativity and imagination, practice English and learn to use new web tools. They had the task of designing the character of the original super hero, stating his characteristics, super powers and the identity he carries in public, work, friends, family members. After that, they could choose to draw their hero and make a poster or create an online comic about their superhero's exploits using the Storyboardthat web tool.
Student works were shown as video material during a visit to the Hasan Tan school in Istanbul. The students' digital works can be seen on the eTwinning page of the project, and the posters had the opportunity to be viewed and chosen by our fifth graders Nikola, Dunja and Iva. A three-member jury looked at all the works, and you will be able to see the best works on the Erasmus+ board in the school premises.
