Comenius Song

Comenius Song from codeoflearning on Vimeo.




Our world is so big,

Yet we are so small,

What brings us together?

You, Us and all.

Turkey and Wales and Germany too,

Say croeso and merhaba, guden margen to you!

CHORUS

We all live on earth, we all share the land,

Our strength lies in firendship

Hold out our hands,

Not strangers now friends and thankful we’ve met.

Comenius got us together, lets never forget.

Our worlds is so big, but lets make it small

Our voices together

All standing tall.

Turkey and Wales and Germany too,

Sing proudly together and share friendship to!

(repeat again)

5.Project Meeting November 29

We arrived at Stuttgart airport in the afternoon. After a long que at passport control, Edith met us at the airport. At the school the kids greeted us with a fabulous ceremony. We were touched by the warm welcoming of the parents, kids, Frau Moser Ehrlein, the inspector, and Frau Schimdt, the person who is responsible from the day nurseries in Karlsruhe. The kids sang our national anthems and played them with the flute. After the ceremony we tasted the delicious, traditional food made by the parents. It was a fairly rich buffet meal. Then, we checked the physical circumstances of the school.














5.Project Meeting November 30



Edith and Jasmine took us from the hotel and we came to the school. The kids performed a brilliant show. They celebrated Reinhard’s and my birthday. The countries presented their gifts to eachother. Then we had our Project meeting and Edith made a presentation about the daily routine of the school and she showed us some examples from the kids’ portfolios. We had lunch together with the kids. After the lunch we had a chat with the kids. Then we went to a Christmas Market in Black Forest. It was an interesting area with the national architecture. We had a rest in a coffee shop where we tasted the traditional deserts. After a small shopping we visited the Narrenmuseum Niggelturm Gengenbach museum and we had information about their old traditional festival. Edith explained us their traditional carnival in detail. At the square we watched the ceremony of “Jim Knopf kommt nach Gengenbach”. After that at dinner we tasted a delicious traditional food and had a chat.




























5.Project Meeting December 1








Edith and Jasmine took us from the hotel. At the school we made the second Project meeting. After a few technical problems I presented the Program and each school tried to enter the data. After a long meeting, the countries gave their Project activities to eachother. Janet and Edith had the most hard working team. Because we spreaded the activities over during the year, we completed the “Diary” and delivered the activities to our partners. We are grateful to our partners and their students for their attentive work. We had lunch together with the kids. After the lunch we took the train to the Municipality. The building was rather modern. We met the mayor Herr Dr. Lenz (social major). He gave us information about the system and showed us around. After the refreshments he gave us a booklet about Karlsruhe. We were honoured by knowing him. After that we had free time for shopping. In the evening we went to a restaurant and tasted delicious German food. We would like to thank Edith for the meal and her friendship and hospitality .
