VIRTUAL EVENT - organized by Cyprus kindergarten Dimosio Nipiagogeio Lympion 3rd day

 The 3rd day started with Hello in each partner country language and said by Cyprus children! 

Then we had a little road trip in Cyprus to remind us that we still are virtually in Cyprus!! Even if we were sitting in our music hall:

Then we were able to see videos of activities about Animal Body Parts chart and with recording wall mat. Also the teachers introduced different games they had made for children.

For the active brake we played the Wheel of Fortune! So they rolled it and the wheel gave you a task, like "Please go and find something big! and so on...

Very interesting to everybody was a Cyprus kindergarten made educational program "A Suitcase of Fairy Tales"! It was a suitcase full of materials and everything made by them! Just wonderful!

Then Cyprus national animal mouflon Stavros travelled to Europa to visit the partners! And he wanted to know that what he will see and do there. So everybody got a little work to do to fill in the empty gaps and give some information about their country! So came along fairy tale "Once upon a time..."

Then Dr Maria Kyriakou held a seminar "Cyprus educational reform: From teacher-directed activities to child-directed pedagogy". Once again we were reminded how important is to play with children because through it they learn more easily.

Before ending our three day journey we watched short story of Heartland of Cyprus. Beautiful legend about Cyprus. 

So thank you Cyprus for welcoming us and giving us lovely three days!

We started the event with lovely Good morning from the children!

And then Cyprus showed us how they started and got through with the theme "See - Our animals"!

Little active brake was a clapping song!

Then followed a seminar by Elena Erotokritou "The fauna of Cyprus". We always thought that Cyprus is like Egypt where is so warm and sunny that plants don't want to grow. But boy were we wrong! Cyprus has very diverse nature with lots of green! So thank you for showing it to us!

The day 2nd part consisted of yet another interesting seminar, where all partners showed the presentations what they had made on the theme "Animals in Our Nature". It is just amazing to see how diverse we can do one theme! how wonderful ideas the teachers have come up with and how perfectly they have executed them! Thank you again my dear partners!

Cyprus showed us an activity with the book "Zoe and Beans! The magic Hoop!". And they also shared the story with other partners to use in their work.

For the finishing off for our 2nd day Cyprus showed us an drama role play activity about the "Saint Helen to Cyprus". Where the children played the story how the Cyprus island came and Saint Helen ended up there.
