SW23 Welcome to school (visit, French lesson)

The Swedish gave us the detail of the agenda of the week. With different slides of PowerPoint, they show the region, the city and gave information about the school. Each adult was presented to the students.

Swedish Fika: this traditional break with coffee and cakes very popular, they even have a funny videoclip about it, was offered as a welcoming moment all together. 

Visit of the school: Swedish students presented the school Rinman. You have the option to chose between many different programmes: Natural science program / Restaurant and food / Industrial engineering program. Many theoretically based subjects like maths, physics, chemistry and technology. Many practical exercises using CAD-programs and building prototypes/models using real materials. Differentiates a lot depending on the specialization of choice. The five different bronches of specializations in the different areas are: Technical science / Design and product development / Information and media technology / Production technology / Community building and environment.

Langage lessons: The first step of this meeting morning was ice breaking game. In order to split them into 9 teams, the teacher named Ulrika, has prepared a Kahoot about Dunkirk/ France and Eskiltuna/Sweden. It was a competition on time and they had to answer as quick as possible. Finally, each team had to compare some topics about school system: lessons, days, timetables, teachers, individual choices for their future, lunch canteen, what is free. Then, they debated together and share their opinions.

The students were volunteered to talk in English. They were able to measure the importance of the Erasmus+ project by being received by the principal and seeing that this project involved a group of foreigner people ready to help them and feel comfortable for the week. This exercise of presentation was really pleasant for all students to begin the week and know better each other. This activity was the first step to socialize and to learn to know each other especially during the Fika and the tour in the school with other students. They were surprised about the well being spaces.
