PROJECT

Castles and their ghosts, white ladies and knights. Residents and their lifes in the castle. 

We will discover and show our beautiful castles. We will tell and show legends connected with them. Together we will create a book of castle monsters. Students will come out with, write and illustrate their versions of legends, then we will gather them in one mutual book. We will make movies showing a chosen legend. We will come out with games in search of a treasure hidden in a castle. 

During the implementation of the project, the students will make new friends, they will increase their awareness of the worth of their cultural heritage and will discover european monuments.

Aims:

- The students are developing their skills in reading and writing, are increasing their language competencies and also cultural awareness 

- The students are forming cooperation with their contemporaries from different countries during cooperative implementation of the Project based on ICT. 

-The students are developing their passions and hobbies, are learning how to use ICT safely and wisely.

Work process:

The students are discovering characteristic features and semblance of the castles, they are creating their imaginations of the castles and lifes of their residents with different techniques. They will show chosen castles placed in their countries. They will have the ability to prove their creativity and imagination with making stories about fantastic journeys of children in castles. They will create and present for their partners the stagings of chosen legends in the castles or in castle sceneries. They will also make the lexicon of fantastical castle's residents. They will create cooperative book of fairies and legends about castles. They will devise, create and illustrate their own legends about castles and their monsters, later to make a book out of it. Teachers with their students will make a scenario of an outdoor locating game (questing), or an electronical game about searchings for a treasure hidden in a castle.
