Polish students' impressions

It was a very busy time for all of us - the teachers and the students preparing the visit in Poland.
The students were so excited when you were here! I could observe them behaving better than before the meeting:). After your leaving, last week, they kept me asking a lot of questions about the guests, for example: what happened to Dogan as he was wearing a plaster on his cheek. I took advantage of their curiosity and asked them to draw their impressions after the visit. See how they were working and their works are on the way, I sent them last week to you.

Thank you for being here with us!

Making the board games in Finland

Classes 4A and 4B made board games. They were really exited about the games.

Water research in Romania

This activity was due to determine the quality of four different water samples: 1-water impurified with small bits of acid substances, 2-rain water, 3-tap water, 4-water impurified with soap.

The 13 year old students determined the pH, the quantity of dissolved oxygen, the presence of sulphate ions and chloride ions.

Conclusions: The rain water and the tap water have pH about 7, the water of sample 1 is acid and sample 2 is basic; The quantity of dissolved oxygen is very small in all the samples, because they were not taken from a lake or a river; All samples contain very small quantities of sulphate and chloride ions except the rain water.

The evaluation test given by the chemistry teacher Viorica Cortojan, showed that the students were interested in this activity, they acquired new information and they would like to determine the quality of water in the rivers passing by our city.

Romania:"The Water Basins in the seven WWW countries"

Three classes in our school (4A, 4C, 5B) have studied the waters of the countries that participate in the project. The teachers Marioara Lupu-Neicu and Georgiana Munteanu coordinated the students in collecting information from atlases, books and internet, organized the activities in which the students had the opportunity to present their work in front of their classmates; several students were helped by their parents to make models representing different water basins or famous buildings close to them (which you can see in the presentations below). Some water legends were told, a powerpoint presentation about the Danube and its Delta, talks about the social and economic importance of water as well as pollution and ways to reduce it, all these made our students more aware of the necessity to protect water. But pictures speak better than words:

Cyprus, Board Game

The students created a board game related to their geographical research. It was an exciting activity which the children enjoyed a lot.
The board game is a memory game that consists of 21 pairs of cards with the WikiWaterWorld's flags, longest rivers and largest lakes.
Wishing you a lot of fun! Enjoy playing it!

 

Cyprus, Exploring Geography

The children in their Geography classes explored some WikiWaterWorld geography!
They spotted the seven countries in the european map and they made a research concerning the longest rivers and largest lakes of each country.
