Some students from our high school in Spain would like to say good bye to you and wish you a happy summer.

MARKET OF SOLIDARITY

2007-05-22T03:25:00.000-07:00

Sometimes it is so easy to learn, to enjoy and help the others at the same time.

We also want to thank the greek people for having sent us all these pretty letters.

Thank you.

This morning from 8:30 to 10:00 we have sold the pencilholders that we have built in the class of technology. Altogether we have been more or less fourty students of 1ºESO selling our products. Here you can see some photos of the experience.

We have got 175 euros, now in class, we are going to vote for a NGO, and we will also put the money in the bank too.

Regards from Spain.

I wrote last to you a lot of time ago. So I thougt, I should write about our things again :).
We (me and Triinu) went to handycraft's olympiad. We had to boil a fish-soup and stitch one picture and draw this picture's draft. There was also a theoretic part about stitch and fish.
I took the second place there, and Triinu took .. maybe the fifth place. I'm sorry, I really don't remember, I have to ask it .
So, I'll put here some pictures about that olympiad.

It's my little stitched cow.

It is Triinu's stitced butterfly.

EXPLANATION OF THE THREE VIEWS OF AN OBJECT

2007-03-29T01:22:00.000-07:00

First we have made the elevation, the lataral view and the plan of the pencil holder.
Later we have divided a sheet of paper of A3 format in four parts and one of them has been trimed, soon after it we fixed it. Once made this, we drew the elevation, the lateral view and the plan.
And last we have made a photography of our pencilholder.

The corner of Antonio (2A)

2007-03-26T05:19:00.000-07:00

This is a place where you can find some of the works that Antonio Guirado of 2A has been doing during the last two years at home for his free time. Francisco helped him to build the objects and Adrian also helped him to translate everything into English.

In the red and black pencilholder you can also put a photo of you, your girl/boyfriend, family or friends.

There are two little photoframes very easy and fast to make.

Things what I have done during long time

2007-02-20T09:51:00.000-08:00

When I was much younger I went to do handycraft after school on one day in week. We did a lot of different cards and other interesting things. I have one picture from these times, what I made.
Maybe I'll write later, about what I did this picture-frame.
I don't have time now.

The other things I have done at school. Let's look them too :)

1. Two pillows - one, what I sewed and stitched; other, what I sewed and crocheted

2. One little braid ..there are like little hearts in that .

3. Two hats - one is sewn and other is knitted .

4. Two skirts - both are sewn

5. My bag what is crocheted and little thing, what you can do for decorate something( that little flower-thing)

6. And finally my mittens, what I knitted last year

So these are things, what I have done. If you want to ask something, then I'll answer to you surely.

Along the following days the Spanish students will be about finishing their tasks. In the first level (1 ESO) we are working on wood, in the second level (2 ESO) we are working on metal (aluminium) which is probably the most difficult material. Finally in the third level (3 ESO), we are working on plastic. Here you can see some of the objects:

Before Christmas we had a christmas-fair. Not in our school, but in Kärdla. It extended two days. Triinu and Janne sold their things on Friday. Triinu had cards, what she had drawn by herself. Janne had little dwarfs, what were made by her little sister. Also she sold a lot of waffles, what she had made by herself. These were very good and she sold almost all of them.
I were at fair on Saturday with Mari-Liis. Mari-Liis tried to sold her two tablecothes, but she couldn't sell them. I sold little dwarf-slippers, christmas-decorations and some Janne's dwarfs.
I hope that we can put on internet pictures of these things(and describes, how we made those things) soon.

Ceramist: An ancient Greek profession!

2006-12-12T09:23:00.000-08:00

Last Tuesday we have visited a traditional pottery lab. A ceramist have made a demonstration about traditional pottery.

In Greece pottery was very popular. People used to keep oil, water, and seeds in jars made from clay, that has been permanently hard by heat. Today we use ceramic for decoration.

We are the ceramists!

In museum

2006-12-05T05:12:00.000-08:00

We went to museum last week on Wednesday. We listened about writing researches, what we do for finish the form 8, but which are involved wtih craft.
We learned how to find information and pictures and the other things for our works. We should search our old photoalbums and old clothes, beacause our researches are involved with our homeland - Hiiumaa. Our other classmates(who don't do the work with etwinning) don't do the research about craft, but they do thaht about things, what are involved with Hiiumaa, for example: Hiiumaa's lighthouses, coasts or whatever else, what is involved to Hiiumaa.
We also saw different parts of Hiiumaa's national clothes as you can see at the pictures what Siret put up in our blog :) .
We will go to museum again next Wednesday. Then we'll write again about that !

(I think, you should write about Greece/Spain and your schools too, like we did :) ).
