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

"What is the problem?"

We read the 2nd chapter of the story and they expressed their opinion on how we can better use water so that plants grow healthy and we don't waste it. "How can technology help with this?" 

They observed forms of watering, discussed, reached conclusions, and drew their ideas.


"How technology helps save water"

The children drew their ideas about technology.


"Different kinds of irrigation"

Match photos and icons


"Science Experiment"

They experimented with different forms of watering (watering with lots of water and watering with a spray bottle), observed, and came to conclusions.



"Engineering: Robot construction"
The children were given various materials, such as
cardboard tubes in different sizes, aluminum foil, straws, caps, beads, craft
googly eyes, pipe cleaners, modeling clay, glue, and cardboard. The children
worked together and constructed a robot using the tubes, which they wrapped in
aluminum foil and joined together. They attached eyes and various beads
representing the robot’s buttons, and used pipe cleaners to create its arms. In
addition, they used straws and caps to build a rain sensor and a humidity
sensor. Using straws and blue drops of modeling clay, they constructed a drip
irrigation system. On the back of the robot, they attached a straw through
which it could draw water from the lake to water the plants.

"Engineering: Bridge construction"

The children were given various materials (paper rolls in various sizes, glue, sticks, cardboard), they discussed, experimented, made decisions, collaborated and built the bridge.



"Mathematics"
The children counted how many drops each pot needed, wrote down the number, compared the drops each pot needed, and decided which pot needed more and which needed fewer.
      

"Digital Games"
The children played Digital Games

  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...
