eTwinning in general at our school

eTwinning has a permanent place in our school. Our pupils actively use all the competences they have acquired in language and non-language lessons.

In every single project we have been convinced that teaching foreign languages as it is implemented at our school has its importance and thanks to systematic education and the CLIL method, our pupils achieve excellent communicative competences.

From the life of the project:

eTwinning Corner

We have set up a special area in our school where we collect all the materials produced in the framework of eTwinning projects. At the moment we have collected a lot of material, but this is only part of it, as it is not possible to publish all the material that our pupils have worked on during the project. Some of the materials are video, audio in nature, so they are represented in the form of a QR code.
