Efi Chatzilia, Kindergarten Armenochori, Greece

November: On the occasion of Damla's history, we implemented actions that focus on saving water when watering crops, on getting to know different irrigation and water supply systems, as well as on the construction of an irrigation system and a bridge.

Science: the children are concerned about the ways of watering the fields. They conclude that we should choose the appropriate means of watering so as not to waste water. They experiment with watering with a bottle and a sprayer.



-Children experiment and discover that different types of soil (soil, sand, pebbles) absorb different amounts of water.

Technology: “How does technology help farmers?”
Objective: Understanding the role of technology in agriculture.
Children watch pictures and a short film with modern irrigation systems (sprinklers, sensors, pipes).
Discussion follows: “How can we use robots or sensors to water plants only when they need them?” Children activate their imagination and draw smart robots that water plants only when needed.

MECHANICS – “Construction of an irrigation system”
Purpose: Development of technical thinking and cooperation.
Children design a modern irrigation system through which water can reach from the “tank” to the “plants”.


-Τα παιδιά σχεδιάζουν και κατασκευάζουν μια γέφυρα για τη Damla, δουλεύοντας σε ομάδες. Αρχικά, κάθε ομάδα αποτυπώνει στο χαρτί τον σχεδιασμό της γέφυρας που επιθυμεί να δημιουργήσει. Στη συνέχεια, τα παιδιά συνεργάζονται, συζητούν και επιλέγουν τα κατάλληλα υλικά που θα χρειαστούν. Ακολουθεί η κατασκευή της γέφυρας σύμφωνα με τον αρχικό σχεδιασμό, με τα παιδιά να προχωρούν σε δοκιμές και απαραίτητες διορθώσεις μέχρι να επιτύχουν το επιθυμητό αποτέλεσμα.

Vasilki Skendou, Kindergarten Papagiannis, Greece: "Activities of October"

Image
  A little drop named Damla visited our class. She told the children a story about a lake that had dried up. The children suggested  how to save water. The children watched the video about the water cycle and placed the pictures in the correct order so that the water cycle was formed. After that the children dramatized the water cycle through a theatrical play. The students drew on a worksheet the image of the rain that was missing from the rain cycle. They continued with STEAM activities.  Science We did in the class the experiment  "Rain Cloud". The students made the rain with water, shaving cream and tempera paint. They were amazed!! Technology The children played digital games about the water cycle and save water. Engineering The children constructed a dam using various materials such as a rectangular plastic container, plastic and wooden blocks, modeling clay, and small stones. They built a wall with the blocks to hold back the water, and around it they placed m...

EKİM AYI ÇALIŞMALARI-OCTOBER WORK SUYU TANIMAK- GETTING TO KNOW WATER- LESS WATER MORE FUTURE eTwinning projemize önce suyun döngüsünü tanıyarak başladık. Su döngüsü ile ilgili önerilen videolardan ilkini sınıfımızda izledik. We started our LESS WATER MORE FUTURE eTwinning project by first getting to know the water cycle. We watched the first of the suggested videos about the water cycle in our class. Dersimizde su döngüsü ile ilgili ikinci videoyu, "su koşulları"nı izledik. In our lesson, we watched the second video about the water cycle, "water conditions." "Su döngüsünde eksik kalan parçaların yerine ne konulmalıdır?" sorusuna cevap aradık. We sought an answer to the question, "What should replace the missing parts in the water cycle?" Su döngüsünün eksik kalan kısmına yağmuru çizerek su döngüsü çalışmamızı tamamladık. We completed our water cycle study by drawing rain in the missing part of the water cycle. Proje hikâyemizde bahsi geçen sor...

 Efi Chatzilia, Kindergarten Armenochori, Greece Activities of October  A little drop named Damla visited our class and shared a story with the children about a lake that had dried up. The students proposed ideas on how to save water. They then watched a video about the water cycle and arranged the pictures in the correct sequence to show how the cycle works. Afterwards, the children dramatized the water cycle through a short theatrical play. Finally, they completed a worksheet by drawing the missing image of rain in the rain cycle. The children depicted their ideas on how we can save water with drawings and created a poster.. Science The Water Cycle :  The children watched a video about the water cycle   Then   w e created rain in the classroom with the help of the rainmaker. The children represented the water cycle with their bodies. They drew the Water Cycle. The students drew on a worksheet the image of the rain that was missing from the rain cycle. Experime...
