STEAM around Europe

Sveti Sava

Open in-person activity

English

Ulica Nemanjina 27B, 23300, Kikinda, Severno-Banatski Okrug, Vojvodina, SRB

The pupils are divided into teams of 3-4. The pupils from one team take turns to set up the questions and prize on the grid. The pupils from another team choose one player who will be a 'robot'. They create an algorithm for their 'robot' to reach the prize. The 'robot' follows the verbal instructions given by the rest of the team, like 'Move forward', 'Turn right', or 'Turn left'. CodyRoby cards are used for the instructions. Thanks to unplugged cooperative games, the pupils will listen to their peers' instructions, move around the board on the ground and answer different questions about European countries, landmarks, animals, food, flags, people, fairytales, have fun, and get familiarised with the principles of coding along the way. Older pupils will be using Scratch to create educational games in English about European symbols. The pupils will learn how to use Scratch while creating a game and practise English along the way. The pupils of other classes, as well as our eTwinning friends, will be given a chance to check what they know about Europe. Thanks to game design activities, the pupils will develop their digital competences and improve their communication, collaboration, critical thinking and problem solving. These coding activities can help the pupils raise motivation and awareness in the learning process.
