International Cultural Exchange Topic: Students' Daily Routine Around the World

This is a project a teacher from Brazil initiates. Students around the world have the chance to learn a little bit about how daily routines can be different through Padlet.

It is a simple project:

Step 1: students write about their routines and take a picture of what they wrote and upload it to the Padlet.

Step 2: students go to the padlet and are able to compare their different routines.

這個國際交流主題是由一位巴西老師發起的，主要是讓學生用英文寫出自己日常作息的一天然後拍照上傳Padlet，然後各國學生可以閱讀了解比較每個國家的學生日常作息有何不同。

On January 16, 2024, students from Zhubei Junior High School engaged in a Mystery Skype exchange activity with a school in Poland. Students from both schools connected through video calls, trying to guess the location of each other's schools.

Due to the 7-hour time difference between the two schools, it was 9:00 in the morning in Poland and 4:00 in the afternoon in Taiwan when the activity took place. Before the start of the event, our students were very excited and diligently prepared English questions.

Throughout the process, students from both schools gradually narrowed down the search range through questions and observations. In the end, they successfully guessed each other's school locations. They felt proud of their achievements and cherished this rare opportunity for exchange.
