Oktobra smo se predstavili. Napisali smo nekaj o sebi, svojih hobijih in vsakdanu. Slike opisov smo naložili v orodje Padlet in vse vključili v našo spletno učilnico Twinspace. Tudi učenci smo člani spletne učilnice in lahko tako aktivno sodelujemo in soustvarjamo v projektu.
Za november bomo predstavili šolo. Lea že pridno sestavlja opis šole, ki mu bomo dodali slike, tako da bodo lahko naši novi evropski prijatelji videli, kakšna je naša šola.
Prav tako zaključujemo z izbiro loga za naš projekt. Tudi naši Lea in Samaja ter Gal so narisali svoje predloge.
December smo posvetili prihajajočim praznikom. V vsako državo smo poslali vsaj eno voščilnico z lepimi željami. Unikatne voščilnice so prispevali Neža, Ines, Lea in Amar.
V eno državo pa smo poslali tudi paket presenečenja, ki že potuje v Italijo. K nam bo paket prispel iz Romunije.
