1. Pupils create a PowerPoint presentation about themselves (their photos, descriptions and their touched up photos using Paint Shop Pro), which will be sent to the partner school. Children meet their European partners playing with a game in which they’ll find the correct photo only having their descriptions and their touched up photos. Pupils also create a Christmas card to their partners. Cards will be sent by ordinary mail.
2. Pupils do an alphabet with photos of the school. The children do two PowerPoint presentations: one with the photos of the alphabet, and other explaining how the school is.
Pupils also exchange personal information (timetable, hobbies, favourite things...) accompanied by drawings made with a computer program (using different techniques: graffiti, aquarelle, crayons, paint...). In two occasions, children only colour the background of the picture and their European partners complete the drawing according to the writing of their partners. They also create a card or bookmark to their partners. Cards/bookmarks will be sent by ordinary mail.
3. Children create some PowerPoint presentations (about their village, about the building of their village/town or province they like best, and about the most important artistic movement of their village/town or province). Pupils also write a postcard of their village/town or province to his/her partner (the postcard should show an artistic building seen in the PowerPoint presentation). They also draw the building their partners like best and colour it with the technique they decide. The postcards and the drawings will be sent by ordinary mail.
