To begin with, we decided to read the story "The Giant Radish"

Why did we propose this text?
We want to better understand what teamwork means!!!

I understood that in a team we must help each other and appreciate the work of our colleagues.

I represented this through suggestive drawings.

Then with the help of some coloring sheets we made a CUBE

It is a method that involves exploring a subject, a situation from several perspectives,
enabling the complex and integrative approach to a theme. The method aims to fix, knowledge systematization.

Useful indications:
➢ Describe: What is it? How is it? What qualities does it have? What shape does it have? How is it defined?
➢ Compare: Find and mention a comparison item. What is similar? What the is different?
➢ Analyze: What is it made of? What does it consist of? What are the constituent parts?
➢ Associate: What does it prompt you to think about? Exemplify. What similarities, what experiences causes you to make this association?
➢ Apply: What can you do with it? What can it be used for? How is it used?
➢ Argue: for or against and list the reasons that support your statement

Depois criei alguns modelos para entender melhor a vida no campo e que esforço deve ser feito para cultivar a terra.

My students had to read a book (they choosed the book!) and after that they tried to make a model from the story. They needed to present their favourite moment from the story or the moment that they consider it the most important in this model. The models were great, original, some were funny, some were really inspiring.

What they liked the most was that they choosed the book, it was their choice what book they will read during those 3 weeks wich was the period of this project.

At the end of the project, for 2 weeks, all these models were exhibited in the school hall to be admired from others children and the teachers from our school.

The objective of this activity was to stimulate the students' critical thinking, to help them think rationally, to find ideas (for example, how can I create a model for the read story?), to develop their curiosity and help them to learn to express themselves freely.

Also, they learn how to express themselves and how to argue their opinions.

This activity was a great succes, the kids enjoyed to show everyone their beautiful creations.
