Project details

The idea of the Project is for each school to learn about a selected artist and to discover his or her work. Topics and their activities are planned to create artistic productions as the artist, but from their own view, and create a dialogue between the participating countries enabling the children to evoke their natural curiosity. ICT tools are matched to show both work steps and common results.

  • Languages: EN
  • Pupil's age: 3 - 9
  • Tools to be used: Chat, Forum, Other software (Powerpoint, video, pictures and drawings), Twinspace, Virtual learning environment (communities, virtual classes, ...)
  • Aims:
    To encourage the pupil's ability of working in teams in the classroom in internationally and collaboration among parents and teachers. To increase the enjoyment and satisfaction that comes as a result of having exposed your own work as an artist. To gain an understanding of ICT tools and it's possibilities as an educational platform in the Project. To gain the first experience of using a foreing language and understanding it's importance. To know and show their own feelings, emotions and needs and to respect the other ones. To know different languages and to apply different techniques to develop creativity and imagination. To express feelings, wishes and ideas through artistic expresion and through different languages. To value and appreciate their own work and their mate's one and some of the artistic works we are learning about the artists proposed.

  • Work process:
    First of all, Pupils will meet their international partners and will be distributed in international workgroups to select the artist or artists they will study. Previous activities: There are some steps to create the students art Works, and it have to be done in each classroom with the assessment of teachers and communication with the other members of the multinational group, to select the artist and the work to represent for instance. This activities would be: To search information about artist's life and work. To collect different materials brought by families about artist's work. To look carefully the model of the artist work to reproduce it on the sheet. To use different plastic techniques to reproduce the artist work. e-Activity: Students, distributed by multinational groups, display and share their art Works in the virtual gallery onTwinspace, assessed by teachers, using Padlet tool. The rest must guess which of the artist's work is represented, using Chatroom and Forum. hide
  • Expected results:
    Final product: We are going to create a virtual gallery about three different artists proposed, showing our creativity and using a wide sort of plastic techniques to realise our own view about the artist's work. We will do it on the Twinspace using Padlet as a ICT tool. Evaluation and feedback: To check the results of the activity, in addition to the Twinspace forum, we will use rubrics. Further more, each teacher will evaluate his/ her students' work, and when the Project has finished, they will do a survey, using Google Drive form, to evaluate it.
