As we are a large group with wide range of ages, maybe we could take into consideration the ages when we choose groups We could have two tables, 8-11 years old students/ 12-15 years old students (Monica' s suggestion)

The length of the stories is free but we could decide a maximum number of pages for the single story in StoryJumper

That's right, I believe that 2-3 pages are enough for each story

If we are a big group, we could create four volumes of the book, one for season. We will prepare a table for the first part/volume of the book, " Autumn". Each teacher will write her/his name in the table. If there are 20 names, for instance, the first 4 schools will write a tale together, the ... more

Beside the books maybe children could take photoes in their town in every season (max. 4 in each season) and we could upload it into four pages in twinboard format. Maybe we could use the most beautiful ones for book covers.

We can ask our students to write stories about the PAST, the PRESENT and the FUTURE. Therefore, we could have groups of WRITERS, those who will write about the PAST, the FUTURE and maybe the PRESENT, regarding the seasons of course.

If the book of the four seasons has got four main stories, one for every season, we can assume that each story can have more than one chapters. In this way, more than two schools can work on every story. If we decide that every story has got, let's say 5 chapters, then 5 schools can write this p... more

We could make a dictionary of the names of the months in the four seasons of all the languages of the countries included in the project. han make a video where students will pronounce the names in the original language.

I like Anita's idea most. By means of this project we can draw attentions to the environmental problem and can do something little for it. We should take into considerstion this idea.😊

I certainly agree with this idea.You know environmental issues are very important this year.

I am loving all these ideas BUT I am also very concerned about how many things are being suggested/planned; if we do them all, we will have time to do little else! I for one have to deliver core skills and content and can only adapt so far to include such activities. I am worried that people will end up overloaded with things to do and the project will then begin to falter as people feel they have to drop out as they can't keep up.

According to the result,our founders can decide the steps,I think.

That's why we have this voting exercise, so we could choose the best ideas. Sadly, some of these great ideas won't be realized this time but the important part is to choose activities that will be diverse and that will have a natural flow to them, I think.

I think we should be divided in teams according to our countries.
Creating our stories simmiliar of our traditions , clothes, and places .Each team can organize by themself their book and presantate to the others in english.
At the end we can stll choose by voting , the best book.
Each book will be translate and created with story jumper in natal language and be served to the students and parents. For the details of the organisation we can use some idea above .

I think we shouldn't do like this because preparing our ebook internationally seems more attractive and exciting.

This can be disadvantage for the project.Because it won't be collaborative among all the partnares.
