Greetings from Finland - Comenius Day 7.11.2011

The Comenius project has now officially started in Töölö Primary School, Helsinki, Finland. Monday 7th November 2011 was a special Comenius Day in our school, during which the pupils familiarized themselves with the partner schools and countries. Younger pupils drew flags and older pupils made posters about each country. Here you can see us working (please click on the picture for a larger view):

That special Monday started our Comenius week (7.-11.11.2011), held in all of the participating countries at the same time. During this week the Finnish pupils observed the weather and measured the temperature every day, took photos of each other in Finnish autumn landscape, wrote traditional Finnish recipes for our partner schools' pupils to try, drew pictures of Finnish autumn harvest, among many other things. A glimpse of what we did will be posted here as soon as we get everyone's work in digital format. 'Til then!
