"Mystery Skype"
On December 16, 2022, members of the
school's English Club (5A graders) met Bamboo International Primary School Students from Vietnam during an online
session. They played an educational game
Mystery Skype.
Many thanks to Lu Trung for giving
us the opportunity to take part in such a wonderful activity that helps our
students to get to know the world better and expand their cultural horizons.
Learning Objectives:
·
to build cultural awareness,
critical thinking skills, and geography skills by guessing the location of the
other classroom through a series of yes/no questions.
·
to arouse students' high motivation
to learn English
·
to foster tolerance through a
recognition and acceptance of differences
·
to broaden students view towards cultural
diversity
Students collaborated with other
students on Mystery Skype, answering a set of questions and hints to find out
information about their new peers! It was a fun and exciting way to engage the
class in the process . What made it so fun was that each participating class knew nothing
about the other, and throughout the lesson students came up with their own
questions and narrowed the location of the other class based on their guesses.
Students were involved and excited.
They truly wanted to find out where their new peers were from. They asked
questions to track each other's location. They worked together to get their
final answer!
Then they shared the traditions
associated with Christmas in their countries and played Kahoot.
