eTwinning Project
• Etwinning Dance Festival
Folk dance can be defined in the
simplest words as a form of dance,
developed by a group of people, which
reflects the traditional life of the people
of a certain country or region.
Each country in Europe has a unique culture, which is also prominently
visible in its various art forms. Almost all the countries have their specific
folk music and dance, which proves to be a wonderful way of expression
of their community and its traditions.

Tarantella
•
Hello! I'm Roberta and I'm in the class 1h. I have been very happy to
take part in this adventure,because I think that nothing unites more than
music, dance and culture. These three universal values are at the basis
of this project, that represents an exciting way to feel united beyond
ideological, religious and rational barriers. With eTwinning something
magic happened before us: we saw a moltitude of friends of ours, ready
to know about us and to let us know all the details about them. In a word,
with eTwinning our classrooms have widened, as if by magic, until they
have touched and linked with the ones in all the European schools that
have joined this project.
We are very happy to show you a little part of our culture. To do that, we
have dug in our traditions to learn what "Tarantella" represented for
Naples in the last centuries and how it was danced. At the end, with all
the material and the support of all our teachers, we have realized this
video. Besides the dance, here is our love, the joy to communicate and
the certainty we have had a unique and unforgettable experience!
We hope you enjoy our "Tarantella". Thanks to you all ! :)))
Why would you recommend
registering with eTwinning?
•
eTwinning is the ideal way to find partners from across Europe.
As a linguist, eTwinning has provided an excellent opportunity
for my pupils to get to know and work with native speakers.
eTwinning has alos provided us with opportunities to work on
cross-curricular international projects as well.
•
For the innovative, creativity it brings to the whole curriculum. It
is accessible, user friendly, well equipped with on line tools, high
levels of support if needed.
•
Since introducing eTwinning into the curriculum, lessons have
become more relevant and inspirational for pupils. Pupils strive
to reach high standards of achievement, knowing that their
finished work has an audience; think creatively to produce well
presented information that will interest others and enhance their
communication and language skills through interacting with
pupils in another European country.
What benefits has running an international
link through ICT brought to your school?
•
•
•
•
Enthusiastic motivated students
Brought the wider world into the class and provided an
opportunity for students to use the languages they studied
A stepping stone to longer term projects
The opportunity for cooperation and friendship across countries
and Europe
•
The main benefits of linking children with their international
peers outweigh the non-connected classroom. An authentic
audience, an understanding and appreciation of other cultures,
learning from one another, breaking the barriers down of the
classroom walls and preparing our children for their globalised
futures.
•
The students have enjoyed project work with their peers across
Europe sharing their experiences at home and in school. They
have been highly motivated and interested.
•
Running an international link through ICT has meant that our
pupils have been able to work with and have regular contact with
pupils from across Europe. They have felt that they really got to
know other pupils involved in our projects without the expense
and time our of lessons of a more traditional exchange.
