March 2026 – The Wheel of Challenges

 


 

In March, the Year 3 pupils of the 2nd Primary School of Malesina, together with their teacher, Ioanna Sarrou, participated in another exciting collaborative activity of our eTwinning project entitled "The Wheel of Challenges."

The aim of this activity was to encourage students to learn more about the cultures, traditions, and languages of their European partners through fun and interactive challenges.

Each pair of partner schools worked together to create a Wheel of Challenges. The wheel included questions and activities related to the culture, customs, traditions, language, landmarks, and everyday life of the partner country. By spinning the wheel, the students completed different challenges, discovering interesting facts and learning more about the countries participating in our project.

Our pupils enthusiastically took part in the activity, working collaboratively, exchanging ideas, and exploring the unique characteristics of different European cultures. They enjoyed solving the challenges while improving their communication, critical thinking, and teamwork skills.

The Wheel of Challenges transformed learning into an enjoyable game, motivating students to explore Europe's rich cultural diversity in a creative and engaging way. Through this activity, they strengthened their intercultural awareness, broadened their knowledge, and realized that learning about other countries helps us understand, respect, and appreciate one another.

This activity was another valuable experience in our eTwinning journey, bringing us even closer to our European friends and proving once again that learning is more meaningful when we learn together.

January 2026 – Creating Our European Hero

 


 

In January, the Year 3 pupils of the 2nd Primary School of Malesina, together with their teacher, Ioanna Sarrou, participated in an exciting collaborative activity as part of our eTwinning project: Creating Our European Hero.

The aim of this activity was to encourage students from different European countries to work together and create a hero who represents the values that unite us. Each partner school contributed a different element to the hero's identity, such as the hero's name, core values, superpowers, appearance, and mission.

Our class actively collaborated with our European partners by sharing ideas and discussing the qualities that make a true hero. Together, we created a hero whose greatest strengths are kindness, friendship, respect, courage, cooperation, and empathy. We also described how our hero can help make the world a better place by encouraging people to work together, respect one another, and support those in need.

We carefully read and discussed the characteristics of our hero, Captain Kind, with great interest. The students enthusiastically explored his superpowers, appearance, and personality, sharing their ideas and opinions. Using their imagination and creativity, they then brought Captain Kind to life through their drawings, illustrating the qualities and values that make him a true hero.

Through this collaborative activity, the students developed their creativity, communication, and teamwork skills while learning to appreciate different ideas and cultures. They discovered that real heroes are not defined by extraordinary powers but by the values they share and the positive actions they take every day.

Creating our European Hero was a meaningful and inspiring experience. It reminded our students that, by working together and embracing common values, we can all contribute to building a kinder, more peaceful, and more inclusive world. This activity was another important milestone in our eTwinning journey and strengthened the friendships we have built with our European partners.

December 2025 – Exchanging Letters and Building Friendships

 

 

In December, the Year 3 pupils of the 2nd Primary School of Malesina, participated in another meaningful activity of our eTwinning project by exchanging letters with their European partners.

The aim of this activity was to encourage communication, friendship, and cultural exchange among children from different countries. Each student wrote a personal letter introducing themselves, their family, their hobbies, their school, and their daily life. They also included drawings and creative decorations to make their letters more personal and enjoyable.

Receiving letters from their partners was an exciting experience. The students were eager to read about the lives, interests, and traditions of children from another country and to discover both the similarities and the differences between them.

Through this activity, the pupils developed their writing and communication skills in English, strengthened their confidence in using a foreign language, and improved their creativity and social skills. Most importantly, they experienced the true meaning of friendship, respect, and cooperation beyond national borders.

The letter exchange was a wonderful opportunity to create meaningful connections with our European partners and reminded our students that, although we live in different countries, we share the same dreams, interests, and values. This activity brought us even closer together and made our eTwinning journey even more special.

December 2025 – Creating Our Own Project Song

 

 

In December, the Year 3 pupils of the 2nd Primary School of Malesina, took part in a creative and enjoyable activity as part of our eTwinning project.

The aim of this activity was to create an original song that would reflect the values and spirit of our project. The students shared ideas, discussed meaningful words and messages, and worked together to compose lyrics about friendship, cooperation, respect for diversity, peace, and unity.

With great enthusiasm and creativity, our class created its own original song, expressing the importance of working together and building friendships beyond borders. The song was then shared with our project partners, alongside the songs created by the other participating schools.

This activity gave our students the opportunity to express themselves through music, develop their creativity, and strengthen their collaboration and communication skills. Most importantly, it helped them understand that music is a universal language that brings people together, regardless of their country or culture.

Creating our own song was a memorable experience for everyone. The students were proud of their work and excited to share it with their European friends, making this activity one of the highlights of our eTwinning journey.
