SKYPE AND ETWINNING IN SPAIN

Skype and etwinning are very interesting because we can meet new friends and learn English at the same time, but we had some problems with the internet conexión. “Jose María - CPR Aderan I – Spain”

 

I am very happy when using skype, I met new friends in Hungary and I can chat with them again. We have talked about our hobbies, subjects at school, etc. “Natalia – CPR Aderan I – Spain”

It was very useful to learn English and to know about other cultures. We have participated in lots of activities with children from other countries. It was really funny.“Ainhoa – CPR Aderan I –ain Sp”

 

 

I learnt a lot about other children, I’m not afraid of speaking English right now. Skype and etwinning were great. “Ruth – CPR Aderan I – Spain”

 

 

Pupil's view about the skype sessions from Finland.

I have heard that many people have enjoyed skyping with random people from Erasmus countries. They have said it was fun and interesting to not speak Finnish with other people. Rene – The School of Rovastinkangas – Finland
 
The Skype thing was cool. You could speak to students in other countries. It was nice to hear what was it like in their school. Sometimes it was a bad connection. Miika – The School of Rovastinkangas – Finland

It was really nice to know about culture of other countries. Now I know what other languages sounds like. Sometimes we didn’t hear other people. Now I have some new friends. Aino – The School of Rovastinkangas – Finland

 

I have been maybe 3 times in Skype. The worst call was the first, when it really didn’t work. Then the second was pretty good. The third was nice because we spoke with people who were in Hungary with us. Annastiina  – The School of Rovastinkangas – Finland

I really liked about the idea to talk with other countries’s people. First, it felt like nothing wouldn’t work, but lately, it turned really fun! Jiina – The School of Rovastinkangas – Finland

 

It was very nice and I learned how they speak English. It was very nice because it’s fun to speak English. Leevi – The School of Rovastinkangas – Finland

I spoke some hobbies and food with other countries’s people. It’s fun to speak something with random people. Oskari L. – The School of Rovastinkangas – Finland

It was pretty akward to me and my friend because there were the whole class in there. We asked them that “in what class are you guys?” But it was funny because I heard that someone said this: “I like your hoodie”. Atte – The School of Rovastinkangas – Finland

We spoke about countries and things on the paper. I had happy times with Skype. Children in a Europe is the best project ever! But once the Skype didn’t work. Santeri – The School of Rovastinkangas – Finland
