'Leer y escribir: un mundo por descubrir / Reading and writing: a world worth exploring'

ETWINNING PROJECT SCHOOL YEAR 2018-2019

The project carried out has been focused on developing students' love for English and Spanish literature in order to be finally able to write articles and short stories on their own in the two languages studied. The final product, indeed, is a bilingual magazine including all the above mentioned works, and much more, as you can see by reading the following pages. The main task was analysing two novels focused on similar themes, but at the same time very different from each other. The first one, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, a novel by Mary Anne Shaffer and Annie Barrows, is the main source for the English part of the project. The second one, Un viejo que leĂa novelas de amor, written by Luis SepĂşlveda, is the source for the Spanish part of the project. The students involved have worked on both the novels, during the same period, by communicating in English and Spanish respectively. As for the Italian students, only 9 out of 28 of them have been working on the Spanish novel, due to their good knowledge of Spanish. Despite aimed at achieving similar aims, the English part and the Spanish part of the project have been developed by different activities,as one can see by reading the first page of the eTwinning Platform.
