The children from the 6th grade of the 5th Elementary School Chryssoupolis, in the framework of the Language class decided to occupy
themselves with an education program themed: for the love of reading, which
includes storytelling of digital books from the site www.saitapublications.gr
On Monday the 3rd of February 2014, they communicated
via Skype with Mr. Iraklis Lampadariou and they came to deal with a wonderful
book, “The heart shaped white cage”, written by the great writer and teacher,
Mr. Giorgos Grigorakis. The writer communicated with the teacher of the class
and sent to him via email a list of activities for the children. So, the
students, next Wednesday, after reading the book in digital form first,
proceeded and separated in groups of 3 to locate pieces of the book, which
refer to the ingredients of love (selflessness and abnegation) and record them using Word.
Later, they painted hearts and wrote love serenades on them, as the writer
of the book is from Crete .
The next day, they contacted him via Skype. Their
conversation progressed without Mr. Grigorakis’ students as he was not at
school. The students were thrilled by his directness of speech, his sweetness
and his honesty when answering their questions. The students’ impressions were
very good. The children stated that they would like to do it again because they
had such a great time!
