All types of school collaborate all together , through Music, around the same topic.
The project idea and the aim had origin from the will of teachers of different grade of school to make work that unites all types of school (pre-primary, primary and low secondary school). As our Low Secondary School is a school music-oriented and our students are individually guided to learn to play 4 musical instruments, music will be the pivot of its various activities. Many teachers of our and of the partner schools are involved (Pietro Cantisani- Maria Rachele Ciancia - Beatrice David_:ICS "Don Bosco" di Francavilla in Sinni - Plesso Secondaria di I Grado, Francavilla in Sinni (PZ), Italia; Gina Antonietta Mango– Filomena Donato - Mariangela Placanico - Angela Maria Tricarico – Ciancia Innocenza – Martino Giuseppina: ICS "Don Bosco" di Francavilla in Sinni - Plesso Primaria "A. Ciancia", Francavilla in Sinni (PZ), Italia; Anna Maria Fortunato: ICS "Don Bosco" di Francavilla in Sinni - Plesso dell'Infanzia "G. Rodari", Francavilla in Sinni (PZ), Italia; K.Belgin Saka Üstünel :YENİ TURAN İLKOKULU, ANKARA, Turchia; Thomas Duggan: St. Brendan's N.S., Co. Kilkenny, Irlanda.)In its development some small melodies, inclusive of chord for the accompaniment , will be produced by the pupils. On these “shared notes” each partner will create rhymes, poems, games, sequences of words and numbers. The music , produced in digital format (midi or audio), may be also used as a background for animations of stories and tales.. Through all that, children are guided to achieve different abilities in various primary school subjects , the improvement of their taste and of their abilities in Music and to the functional usage of English Language and new technologies. The most innovative and creative elements of the project are the comparison with foreign pupils and teachers, the usage of ICT to communicate, as well as the usage of the twinspace .
The works are always integrated in the curriculum of the involved subjects. The main subject objectives are:
Cooperating with pupils and teachers of schools of all levels and from different European Countries ( Social studies /Citizenship and Constitution) - Producing music and singing songs ( Music)-Producing texts about the various disciplines on the provided music (Italian, English, Maths, Science)-Producing drawings and other art works (Art) -Creating multimedia productions to share on web and on the twinspace (Informatics) -Comparing activities and ways of working and highlighting similarities and differences ( Social studies / Citizenship and Constitution). Our Secondary school teacher produces music and arranged our partners productions using Makemusic Finale o Sibelius, Garageband. The other partners take photos and produce drawings about all our activities carried out, then they scan and use them with voices and music to create videos, using Windows Movie Maker finally uploaded on You tube and embedded in the twinspace blog or web content tool.In detail the tools we use are : hardware( PC, scanner, Digital Audio Recorder, camera,videocamera, Data traveller, Interactive Whiteboard ),different software (Makemusic Finale o Sibelius, Garageband ,PowerPoint, Widows Movie Maker, Paint, Word), Internet (You Tube, Vimeo, Spicynodes, Tripwow, Animoto), TwinSpace.The purpose of the project is to guide teachers and children to the gradual and conscious discovery of the utility of the collaboration among different levels of schools for the achievement of common objectives. Starting from that main point, we work promoting subjects knowledge through activities linked on the musical theme and promoting and consolidating through it, in order to the age and the peculiarities of the children, knowledge and abilities related to the various levels of schools.
