FLAT KATE

We had a special guest in this month. 
Her name is Flat  Kate and she was sent from Sunset Hills Elementary School/Omaha/Nebraska/USA.
She visited our school and our town.
We have a traditional collaboration between the two schools.
Last time it was our turn to send  Flat Kati (made by the second graders) to Omaha.

ROMANIA IN THE TWO WORLD WARS

We had common history classes with our American friends.
They are from Elmwood Middle School/Rogers/ Arkansas and Heritage High School/Rogers/Arkansas. 

We were discussing about the two World Wars, and how was involwed Romania in these wars.
It was also very important  for us to know each other, and to know the other's culture better.

Thank you to  Goga Enikő and Koós Kinga, our Mikes teachers, for cooperation.

REGIONAL CONFERENCE

 
On 02.03.2012 it was organized a regional conference in our town, by our local branch of association.
The theme was DEVELOPING READING SKILLS IN THE SCHOOL LIBRARY. 
There were librarians from Brasov-, Harghita-, Bacau- and Covasna County. We were looking for new ways to attract our students to read.
The reading became an important problem in Romania.
The latest PISA search shows that we are on the very last places in Europe.

Punguţa cu poveşti

 Started at  Liceul Teoretic Székely Mikó Kollégium, continued at Şcoala Generala Henter Károly, the  ''Punguţa cu poveşti" (The Tale Scrip) finally arrived in our school.
The aim of  "The Tale Scrip'' is to help the Hungarian children to learn the Romanian language playfully. 

Our students presented the childhood of Mihai Eminescu, the great Romanian poet.
The Şcoala Generală Antos János from Reci wil continue the project.

Thank you to Sala Magdolna, Romanian language teacher, for  cooperation.

 On 22th of January we celebrate the Hungarian Culture Day.
Our library organized a book exposition.

Snowy Meeting

Finally the first snow arrived in St. George City!
The Elmwood Middle School /Rogers / Arkansas / USA students bring it to us.
(It was very hard to them to arrive to the on-line meeting, because of the bad weather.)

We had a common project based on History.
The students from Rogers learned about Romania.
Our children were very happy to discuss with them.
Thank you very much to Goga Enikő, our English teacher, for her cooperation. 
The State of Arkansas has got an important meaning for us: Jason Brasswell, the first  Peace Corps volunteer came from there.
