Let's discover our European Math World

(Oct 2016/May 2017)



Target language:




Description:
Discovery of our local and national heritage thanks to Maths field trips and activities
(14/15 years old)

Work's steps: 


TELLING ABOUT ME
In each country, students create short personal presentations in movies. Then their teacher groups all videos together, and publish the whole video on the twinspace.

ABOUT OUR SCHOOLS/AREAS
Pupils present their schools and their areas through photos or videos

OUR EUROPEAN MATH WORLD
Our students are going to discover some cultural places of their local or national heritage linking them to math topics or workshops. Each partner organizes one (or several if possible) field trip(s) in its country for its own students.
For each field trip, students send a postcard to each partner country from the place visited, with short explanations about the site they discovered and about the corresponding math workshop they did (or will do after). During the field trip, teachers and students take some pictures and videos in order to create a global video about all they did.

THE BIG MATH WORLD CONTEST
In the end of each field trip, pupils have to create 3 questions whose answers are in the film they published on the twinspace.  All questions are regrouped in an only transnational  quiz : "The Big Math World Contest". All pupils having participated in the project can answer the quiz, and perhaps win some prizes  offered by all the countries involved in the project.

BONUS ACTIVITIES
1) Chat sessions/Videoconferences
Pupils could chat on the twinspace, or use skype to do videoconferences.

2) Let's celebrate the pi day (March 14th)
The partners who will have the opportunity to celebrate the pi day can publish some pictures or videos.

EVALUATION OF OUR PROJECT
Using a Google form, our pupils evaluate each activity of our project.
