Meeting in Amphissa

"Amfissa also mentioned in classical sources as Amphissa is a town in Phocis, Greece, part of the municipality of Delphi, of which it is the seat and a municipal unit. The municipal unit has an area of 315.174 km2.[2] It lies on the northern edge of the olive forest of the Crissaean plain, between two mountains, Giona to the west and Parnassus to the east, 200 km (120 mi) northwest of Athens and 20 km (12 mi) of Delphi, as well as 85 km (53 mi) northeast of Naupactus and 72 km (45 mi) south of Lamia."

2/04/2018

We've played different games in order to meet each other and also we've created Easter eggs. It's been a great day.

We've played a game today: Board Game on the floor. There are 2 kinds of Memory Cards, some with pictures , and some with vocabulary about the environment.

We've tried to match each picture cards with their vocabulary cards and it's been very fun and challenging!




DAY 3: Day trip to Parnassos national park.

5/04/2019

We've learnt how to identify , sort out and count the different species of native vegetation by using a special frame.

We've also learnt how to use a Sound Level Meter , which is also a measuring instrument for LIGHT, HUMIDITY and TEMPERATURE.

It's been interesting learning how to estimate the age of a Mediterranean tree and guessing the weather conditions that affect the tree’s growth by using a core that does not damage the tree. Essentially, each year's annual growth ring starts with thicker and lighter part representing spring-season growth, and ends with darker matter that represents late summer /early fall growth.
