Sharing experiences
The next day, we continued to visit the school and share experiences. Hayssam showed us around the school, an enviable and unique natural environment. They have large green fields where kids can run and do many activities. In addition, the school has a sports centre which they use when it rains.

We were completely amazed by the level of English of both the pupils and the teachers. We wanted to know what strategies they use to teach English. The language coordinator told us about the methodology they use to teach foreign languages, both German and English.
Meebook
Meebook
The school uses new technologies on a daily basis. Teachers use a platform called Meebook. This tool allows them to communicate with each other and with the pupils. Almost all the applications they use are from Microsoft. We noticed that kids are very autonomous and that they learn by working in groups and using laptops.

Our presentation
Paula and I gave a short presentation about our school in 5th and 8th grade. The pupils were very interested to know more about us and our school.
Another wonderful surprise was to know how the library works. A living library, full of pupils and resources. All school groups are allocated one hour a week to go to the library and borrow a book. The pupils know exactly what to do.

The three library managers have enough time to work, coordinate and monitor. In total, they have 22 lessons of 45 minutes.
