3rd ACTIVITY – THE OLYMPIC GAMES

  • PLANNING:

WHAT: Hosting students celebrated The Olympic Games for the visiting students during the transnational exchanges. Using national traditional games as inspiration, they prepared cooperative games for the visiting students. The players in each team had to be from different countries. There would be a tasting of a national dish and a match to be played by the whole of students. As hosters for the Olympic Games, they would shape up aspects related to the Games.

WHY: English skills would be improved by developing this activity, coexistence between partners and real interaction were also enhanced here as well as the inclusion of all students, taking into account participants’ particular needs. Their creativity would be strengthened by making up all the parts and they will bring to them healthy habits.
