Here we are from Cremonesi Emilia

Skype meeting between Greece and Lithuania

Today we had another skype meeting, this time with the pupils from Lithuania.

A bit shy at first but curious enough to gather around the web camera. We started by introducing ourselves and we exchanged some information about our schools, the lessons, and the time schedule. We found many similarities! It was a pleasant feeling to know these similarities.
Yet, there are differences like the weather which is not the same. In Greece the temperature has started to rise!
Add to that, we found out that we do not have the same currency. So we had the opportunity to present to each other some coins and banknotes. In Greece is the Euro and in Lithuania is the Litas.
According to the myth, Europe was a beautiful princess, who was abducted by Zeus. Zeus one day saw Europe among other young women and was so struck by her beauty and her charms that he transformed into a bull and made her sit on his back and went to Crete. Europe's myth inspired many artists and eventually she became immortal after her name was given to the continent.

Skype meeting between Greece and Spain

chat with our e-Twinning friends

Today we were very happy to meet our friends from spain online via the Skype tool.
There were some sound and connection problems of minor importance since schools do not always have the best technical equipment but it was not that serious.
Although the pupils were a bit shy and embarrassed to speak in English in front of a camera, they enjoyed the meeting very much. For more than an hour we exchanged information about our school life and learned a lot from each other. Once again we realised that we have so many similarities even though we live so far from each other. 
It was a great experience! Cheers :-)
