Artistic workshops in the Staro Nagoričane School

In the framework of our Intercult'rural project we are organising artistic workshops with the 8th grade students from the Staro Nagoričane School.

Every monday we visit the school and propose artistic and creative workshops to the kids. Normally based in the idea of recyclart, we are showing them how different materials can be reused in a creative way giving them a “second life”. 

During this workshops we can also practise with them the concepts learned at wednesday's english lessons! From our point of view, it seems like they enjoy these activities.

This week the children have learnt how to make recycled paper, where the paper is coming from and which are the consequences when we waste it!

Two weeks ago they made halloween decorations (re)using toilet paper rolls and soft cardboard boxes like cereals or cookies boxes, and last week they created recycled boxes from milk and juice tetra-paks :)

See U next monday for more creativity!

English course with children from rural area!

In the framework of our Intercult'rural project we are organising a non-formal English course with the 7th and 8th grade students from the Staro Nagoričane School.

Every Wednesday after the school hours we are receiving the children in the youth center, located next to the school, for one hour of pedagogical games and activities. The objective of these classes is to make the children enjoy learning a foreign language.

After two sessions we can see that the children really appreciate having this unconventional activities. They participate actively and enjoy dicovering new ways to learn :)

On our side we are very satisfied with this activity, it's very nice to share our time with these kids and feel that they are grateful for our presence. Next Wednesday: numbers and colors!

Work in progress...
