A busy start

On their second day the pupils participated in several workshops. Working in small mixed groups they had fun and learned a lot of new things about each other. They visited the Moslavačka priča estate, where they learned about the rich history of the estate, the traditional architecture, and plant and wildlife of this area. Gallery.

 

At their first workshop, dealing with social skills, they learned the names of other pupils, and how to say what they like in one of their friends' languages. In small groups they made a map of Croatia out of the puzzles they were given. They placed photographs of lager cities on their maps. Gallery



On their second workshop they were making a dictionary of given phrases. They made pictures of the phrases and translated them into their languages. Through cooperation and fun activities they increased their language competences and learned a couple of phrases in their friends' languages. The atmosphere was very positive and good for work. They easily cooperated with each other, regardless of the language barrier. Gallery.



By building a model of a traditional Moslavina house the pupils learned basic elements and unique approach of the traditional building style of Moslavina. They also built models of a traditional Finnish house and learned what the traditional Czech house looks like. The atmosphere was very work inspiring and through cooperation they achieved all the goals needed for the third workshop. Gallery.



The final workshop helped them develop entrepreneurial skills and learn basic entrepreneurial phrases like investing and knowing the market. They learned the names of all currencies in partner countries and created labels for some products. Gallery.
