Time Travel With English Application

Time Travel with English
Project introduction
This is a project which aims at developing the four skills of the English language: reading,
writing, speaking and listening. The main focus would be presenting students with vocabulary
that is used from the past to the present in a single context. This is done by the implementation
of various games and activities, online meetings and chat rooms which would enable the
students to use the language as much as possible. The project was done by a group of
incredibly enthusiastic teachers from nine different countries: North Macedonia, Turkey,
Portugal, Greece, Romania, Croatia, Bulgaria, Georgia and Azerbaijan. The students are aged
9-14 years old. Various activities were done which were in line with art, drama, foreign
languages, media education and ICT. What is more, students worked on their competencies
and also learnt a lot about other countries and their culture.

Collaboration between partner schools

Collaboration activities go beyond communication. Please describe the work process of the
project clearly outlining the division of tasks between you and your partner(s). In particular,
describe:
a) The aspects of the project where you and your partner(s) collaborated.
b) The activities in which pupils worked together.
c) How the final products of the project were achieved by the pupils.
This has been a wonderful project where all of the activities where planned and completed
together. We had an amazing guide, the founder of the project, that kept inspiring us to do more
and complete the activities together. We had many online meetings where we discussed about
the direction in which we want our project to develop. Apart from the online meetings we also
had constant communication via WhatsApp group. This was incredibly helpful in order for the
project to go smoothly and complete our goal. Our group was big so it was crucial to have a
great understanding between us, members.

There were a lot of activities where the students worked together. A great collaboration was
done during a zoom meeting where students brainstormed words connected to eTwinning. Also
students communicated in the chat room. Apart from that we had a joint work on Safer Internet
Day, we created a story on storyjumper together. They could all say something about them on
Linoit. The students created an acrostic poem, created letters for the name of the project and
recorded e-safety slogans.

The students completed their tasks meticulously. In the end they said their goodbyes and
shared with the others what TTWE and eTwinning means for them. Eventually, everything was
wrapped up in a nice story Andy the Time traveler.

Use of technology
Please describe:
a) How technology has been used by all partners to enrich the activities of
the project.
b) How you addressed data-protection and copyright issues.
Technology by far played a crucial role in the realization of the project.

What internet technology offers is a wide variety of applications that are
user-friendly, free and educational. We used many to promote the goal
of the project, to make students get to know one another and to use and
practice English more.

Data protection and copyright issues were addressed seriously and students spent a lot of time
on discussing the importance of Internet safety. We created pictures, we recorded slogans and
we made posters that talk about this issue.

Pedagogical approaches
Please describe the following:

a) The educational objectives and pedagogical approaches you have used
with your pupils during the project work. (Examples; small group work,
independent research by pupils, etc.
b) If your pupils are very young, the methods you used to engage them.
The variety of activities enabled me to use different approaches. Some things were done
individually in the comfort of the students’ homes while others were done at school in the
classroom. Since the students are nine years old they were able to complete the tasks by
themselves of course with a suitable guidance from me. Sometimes they worked in pair but
most often we worked together as a group and had a lot of fun.
Curricular integration
Please describe the following:

a) How you tried to integrate the project into your existing
curriculum/subject matter/s and/or if you followed a multidisciplinary
approach.
b) What key competencies and skills you developed in your pupils
during the project work.
Since I am an English language teacher at my school this project was

perfect for me. The students had opportunities to write and speak in
English and with that enrich their vocabulary and knowledge. For
example, there is a topic about countries and nationalities so the
students could easily use their knowledge with the wordwall game we
did and at the same time meet the partners in the project from the other
countries.
The key competencies they developed were speaking and writing in English. Also they
became more proficient at using web2 tools and had many opportunities to express themselves
creatively.
Results and documentation
Please describe the impact that this project had on your pupils and on your
work as a teacher. In particular:
a) How you achieved the set of objectives of your project.
b) How you evaluated your project.
c) How you disseminated the project and the project outcomes.
Yes, I have achieved my set of objectives. The students enriched their vocabulary. They
practiced reading, writing and speaking English. Also, they learnt how to use new digital tools.
The project was evaluated by discussion in the classroom and also by students completing a
form where they expressed their experience in the project.
The project was disseminated by creating school corners, sharing information on social media
as well as publishing on the school’s website.
