Mark Twain was the creator of the scrapbooks. He filled them with pictures and articles about his books and performances. He also patented the idea. Inspired by his invention, this etwinning project based on scrapbooking tells about our school year and a book selected from Mark Twain. We also aim to get to know Twain’s literary work by choosing a novel of his using the scrapbooking technique. We are six educational centres from Spain, Poland, Serbia and Turkey working on this project.
Throughout the school year all of our educational centres have attended or celebrated any event maybe taking place in the own school or outside. As you can see in the following photos of the scrapbook pages of our books, out students have been taking place in all of them and then they have recorded some videos where they comment their experiences at the events.
Our students have travelled to different and amazing places during this school year. It has been great to see and discover new places where to visit and enjoy the atmosphere and the local people there.
As we can see in the following scrapbook pages, all of them have glued and accessorized them so as to fill in this section labelled "School Trips" of our scrapbooks. Then our students have recorded a video where they describe the places visited and their experiences too.
Let's watch them and see their scrapbook pages for this section.
Now it is time to know about our countries, where we live. We have worked this time using leaflets for attracting tourism to our countries, showing the tourist our touristic attractions, monuments, typical food, natural resorts, etc. As you can see in the following scrapbook pages, our students have attached the leaflets to the scrapbook and the result is awesome!!
Each of us live in a different city, town or village in our countries. We are going to describe them in this section as we always do in our scrapbook. These time our students have created touristic leaflets as we did for the countries so that tourism may visit our cities having a wide range of variety in everything they do, see or even taste there.
Now it is time to know our school atmosphere, so in this entry you will see where we study and have great moments with our school-mates. We are going to show you some pictures of our schools in our countries and the scrapbook pages we have made after having described them.
