Projektile tõmmati joon alla Türgis



Erasmus+ projekti Go For Literacy to Enlighten Your Future viimane kohtumine toimus maikuu alguses Hatays, Türgis. Võõrustajaks oli Necmi Asfuroglu Anadoulu Lisesi kool.
Kohtumisest võtsid osa partnerid Hispaaniast, Prantsusmaalt ja Eestist. Kahjuks ei osalenud seekordsel kohtumisel sõbrad Saksamaalt. Põhjuseks pingeline olukord kahe maa vahel.
Nii nagu viimasele kohtumisele kohane, käidi koosolekutel läbi kaheaastane teekond, kuhu mahtus arvukalt tegevusi ja kohtumisi nii õpilaste kui õpetajatega. Projekt oli tõesti tegevusterohke. Kuna tegemist on õpilaste kirjaoskuse parandamisega, siis mahtusid sinna kirjandusteosed, juttude koostamine ja kirjutamine, erinevate metoodikate jagamine ja võrdlemine. Koostati neli erinevate osaoskuste käsiraamatut. Viidi läbi mitmeid küsitlusi ja võrreldi neid omavahel. Kõik projekti tegevused ja tulemused on kättesaadavad eTwinningus ja projekti kodulehel wiki keskkonnas  http://literacyourfuture.pbworks.com/w/page/119646432/WELCOME
Kõik partnerid leidsid, et projekti eesmärk täideti ja projekti tulemustega võib rahule jääda. Paljud omandatud kogemused on rakendunud partnerkoolide igapäevasesse õppeprotsessi.
Peale Türgi kooliga tutvumist said osalised ülevaate ka Türgi haridussüsteemist, kohtuti linnapea ja haridusjuhiga. Külastati paljusid ajaloolisi ja kultuuriliselt olulisi paiku ning maitsti Türgi vürstkaid toite. Meeleolukaks kujunes viimane õhtu -  koolipidu, mis oli seotud viimase klassi lõpukellaga.
Kohtumisel osalesid õp Ingrid Lilles ja Kersti Rohtmets.
Lahkudes sooviti koostööd jätkata ja loodeti, et sõprussidemed kestavad. Nüüd seisab kõigil ees lõpparuande koostamine ja kirjutamine.

Mother Tongue Week at Paikuse



Mother Tongue Day, which marks the birthday of Kristjan Jaak Peterson on March 14, one of the founding fathers of Estonian poetic tradition, was first recognized as a national holiday in 1999. It is now celebrated not only in Estonia but in many Estonian Houses, schools and universities all around the world.

Hundreds of larger and smaller events are held in Estonia and abroad to mark the occasion, including a traditional dictation in ERR's Vikerraadio.

On Tuesday there was a wordsearch competition . Two members from each class could participate in the competition.
On Wednesday there was a Võro language lecture. 

Võro (Võro: võro kiilʼ [ˈvɤro kʲiːlʲ]Estonianvõru keel) is a language belonging to the Finnic branch of the Uralic languages. Traditionally, it has been considered a dialect of the South Estonian dialect group of the Estonian language, but nowadays it has its own literary standard and is in search of official recognition as an autochthonous regional language of Estonia. Võro has roughly 75,000 speakers (Võros) mostly in southeastern Estonia, in the eight parishes of the historical Võru County These parishes are currently centred (due to redistricting) in Võru and Põlva counties, with parts extending into Valga and Tartu counties. Speakers can also be found in the towns of Tallinn and Tartu and the rest of Estonia.

Some classes went to the cinema to watch a new film Truth and Justice based on a novel by a. H. Tammsaare.

Kirjanik käis külas

Paikuse Põhikooli 4.-6. kl. õpilastel oli suurepärane võimalus kohtuda lastekirjanik Mika Keräneniga. Kohtumisel sai selgeks, miks, millal ja kuidas Mika kirjanikuks hakkas ning millal on lootust uue raamatu ilmumiseks.
Gerli Lehemets
Paikuse raamatukogu direktor

Our students had a great meeting with Mika Keränen on 7 February. 

Mika Keränen (1973) is a phenomenon. Ethnically Finnish, the Tartu-dwelling Keränen has become one of the most popular children’s authors writing in Estonian. Keränen’s career took off in 2008 with his book Varastatud oranž jalgratas (The Stolen Orange Bicycle) that launched a popular series. It centres on the secret children’s society Ramps in the romantic slum of Supilinn in Tartu, and in every book, its members come across a criminal affair that they will then go on to tackle. Varastatud oranž jalgratas was followed by Peidetud hõbedane aardelaegas (The Hidden Silver Treasure Chest) in 2009, where the members of Ramps are searching for a treasure buried in the Tartu Botanical Gardens during the Second World War. The book won the children’s book award of the Estonian Cultural Endowment in 2010. In 2015, the film Supilinna salaselts (Secret Society of Souptown), based on Keränen’s books, was released. By now, Keränen’s heros have reached a ninth book, the Fantoomrattur (Phantom Cyclist) published in 2017, where the events are set in motion by a thief on a bicycle who pinches the purse belonging to the mother of Mari, one of the most important members of Ramps.
