Vasilki Skendou, Kindergarten Papagiannis, Greece: "January Activities"

 "Reading story-Reflection"

We studied the fourth chapter of the story, discussed the problems caused by sandstorms, and the students illustrated their suggestions for reducing the damage they cause.


"Science-Technology-Engineering Ativities"

The children were divided into groups, and each group was given sand. They touched it and observed that the grains were separate from one another. Then, they added water to the soil and noticed that the grains stuck together. Based on this observation, they hypothesized which type of soil could cause a sandstorm. They experimented and confirmed their predictions.

Next, they placed a homemade field behind the plate with the soil and added plants made of modeling clay. They blew air again and observed how the sandstorm covered the plants with dust, causing damage to them. Finally, they created a natural barrier using trees made from the kindergarten’s wooden materials. They repeated the experiment and observed how effective tree planting was in protecting the field from the sandstorm.



"Mathematics Activities"

The children were divided into two groups, and each group was given the same amount of soil, without the children being aware of it. Each group placed the soil on a different surface: one group put it on a small plate, while the other placed it on a tray. The children were then asked which amount of soil was greater. They answered that the soil on the tray was more, since it was spread over a larger surface area.

Afterwards, the soil from the tray was transferred to a plate identical to the one used by the other group, and the children were asked again which plate contained more soil. To confirm their answers, they were given a scale. Each group weighed its soil and recorded the weight. In this way, they realized that both plates contained the same amount of soil.

  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...
