United Kingdom

We are Aina, Víctor, Carla, Andrea, Aleix and David. Our class is second B of ESO at Escola El Cim, in Terrassa.

Our idea about the United Kingdom is that the hooligans drink a lot of beer and they lose control. Your country is divided into four regions: England, Wales, Scotland and North Ireland.




















Hello, our names are Marc, Adrian, Santi, Tamara and Sandra.

We have worked the stereotypes of United Kingdom, your country. We think that there:

They eat hamburgers and chips every day.

They wear socks and sandals together.

They go with old black nice taxis and double deck red buses.

They drink a lot of beer, and tea at five o'clock.

They go to the beach all the summer.

Your English Queen is well known.
















The London Eye is very nice.

English people are very football-fan.

In your country, it rains a lot.

Rock music is very popular in the United Kingdom, with Rolling Stones and the Beathes.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Greece

Hello,

We are Xènia, Ainhoa, Sílvia, Pablo and Cristina, and we are from Escola el Cim deTerrassa, a city near Barcelona.

We had worked Greece stereotypes, and we think that:
You’re very easy-going.
You have got beautiful beaches and a lot of very small islands.
In Greece it’s always sunny and hot.
You’re always eating yogurt (in Catalonia we have got a yogurt brand named Yogur Griego (Greek yogurt). All your houses are white and blue.
You’ve got a very important past.
We put Mama Mia film’s pictures, because it was filmed in a Greek island.

We hope that you have enjoyed reading our opinion about your country. Now it is your turn, write to us about our stereotypes!

See you soon!

Poland

Hello,

We are Natasha, Nina, Júlia, Anabel and Marc. We have worked the stereotypes of Poland.

In Poland we think that the people eat a lot but not at the same time as we do.

For example, they have breakfast earlier than us, then in the middle of the day they only have a small lunch.

Their main lunch is in the afternoon when they arrive home, more or less at five.

Most of people are blond and their eyes are blue.

The weather is very cold in winter and it always snows.

We are looking forward to having your opinion soon.

Portugal

Hello!

We are Carlos, Gloria, Miquel and Mario. We live in Terrassa (Barcelona) and we go to El Cim school.

The stereotypes that represent your country for us are:

fado, because you sing sad songs.

Carabellas, because we think that you are good navigators.

Fires, because your country is very dry and hot, and this facilitates fires.

Rural life, because there are more people who live in villages than in towns.

Football selection, because you have got some good football players, like Cristiano Ronaldo.

The rooster, because is the sign of your country.

Oporto and Lisboa, because they are important cities.

We hope you enjoy it! Goodbye!

Hello!

We are working on stereotypes of Portugal. The things that we think about your country are:

That you are very good conquerors, because you conquered Brazil.

That you have a good football team.

Those in your house have got a lot of dogs.

That you are good surfers.

That in your country there are beautiful beaches.




















We hope that you like it and we look forward to getting your opinions soon.

Goodbye!

Germany

In the photographs of Germany, from my group are found:

Blond girls, because in Germany, we imagine the girls are blond.

Beer, because in Germany, we imagine people drink this.

Work, because in Germany, we imagine people work a lot.

Hot-dogs, because in Germany, there is a city with this name, Frankfurt, and in there they invented the frankfurts.

Ana Frank's diary, because theis persone wrote one diary of her life when the war.

Nazis, because in Germany, there died lots of Jews.

Hi people! We are Carles, Núria, Arnau, Judith and Ferran, writing from Barcelona, in Catalonia (Spain). Our project is about you and your country, and we see some stereotypes about this cold country:

Sorry, but, we think that a lot of German people are very serious and hard workers.

We think that your language is very estrange and complicated.

Your hair is very blond and your eyes are very blue.

We think that you have and drink a lot of beer. And when you come here, in Catalonia, you drink our beer too.

We think you like football very much, and, you are great football fans.

Also, you eat a lot of hot dogs, concretely “Frankfurts”.

Where you are in Germany, it rains very

much, it’s very cold and it’s very cloudy.

Your landscape it’s very smoothness and very green, and you can ride a bike a lot.

You have a lot of monuments: Brandenburg Gate, Tiegarten, Holocaust monument...

We connect the idea of Nazism with the history of your

country, but now you don’t have any relation about this. We also think that you’re open to talk about this terrible think.

And this is our stereotypes of your country!

Bye!

Stereotypes Collage

The logo contest

We told the students to produce an image to identify our Comenius programme and we decided to create a logo contest. Everyone at Year 4 became very enthusiastic in artistic creation and enjoyed very much making the logo. It was supposed to symbolize the contents of the project: Let's get to know each other through photography. The goal was to create a logo that was nice, unique and easily identifiable.

Now we have finally got all the designs and we are ready to decide. We hope you like it.
