Singing in the rain

5th grade:

School, escaping from the narrow framework of traditional teaching, can bring forth and develop children's skills that will help them to structure their emotional world as a worthy of a new society with a primary focus on man and his environment.

5th grade students suggested and performed the well-known "Singing in the Rain" within the framework of the Erasmus + “Out of Subject Box”, announcing that out of the box can be great creations, contributing to the development of a modern pedagogical system.

The journey of the “Droppy”

3rd grade: This semester we occupied ourselves with water with the help of our friend, Droppy, which told us everything she saw, listened and lived during her imaginary journey.

Droppy met Poseidon, the ancient God of the Sea and his wife, Amfitrite. We read a book about him and drew him.

Then, Droppy joined the circle of water. We joined it, too, through videos on You Tube.

Then we talked about where water can be found on earth and made a beautiful poster. We were very sorry to be informed that in many places around the world there is lack of water.

In the end, with Droppy’s help, we wrote and drew in small drops the necessity of water.

The sounds of water

3rd grade: We listened to the sound of the waves, holding a nylon sheet and then we entered into the “stormy water”.

We created the sound of the sea with percussion instruments.

We listened to the sound of the rain with the help of plastic bottles.

We blew into a small pipe and listened to a slight whistle, and blew into the water and watched bubbles. Then, we blew into straws, which didn’t make any sound at all! But then, when we blew into the water, small bubbles were created once again.
