PLANTS IN A DIFFERENT VIEW - Students from 7th Primary school of Thebes in Greece

 PLANTS IN A DIFFERENT VIEW – A Creative European Collaboration!

Students from 7th Primary school of Thebes in Greece

Teachers: ΕΙΡΗΝΗ ΜΑΤΣΑΓΓΟΥΡΑ, ΜΑΡΙΑ ΠΑΠΑΧΡΗΣΤΟΥ

Our first international activity, titled "PLANTS IN A DIFFERENT VIEW." In this collaborative action, students from various European schools work in mixed transnational teams to observe and study plants in innovative and creative ways.

The project began with an open vote using Google Forms, where students selected 35 favorite plants such as rose, lavender, sunflower, lily of the valley, peony, daisy, violet, lily, don't forget me, snowdrop, strelitzia, crocus, jasmine,  magnolia, liliac, iris flower, pansy, hydrangea, hyacinth, chamomile,  carnation, cherry blossom, poppy, camelia, chrysanthemum, gladiolus, azalea, tulip, daffodil, lotus flower, gerbera daisy, dandelion, hibiscus and meadow buttercup. Each team chose one plant to explore in depth.



The main goal of this activity was to create a collaborative digital book, using Book Creator, where each plant was presented through a series of fun and educational digital tasks:

1. AI PICTURE PLANT – students created an AI-generated image of their plant using Canva.



2. CHATTERPIX PLANT – with the help of ChatterPix, plants "talk" and introduce themselves!




3. PIXEL ART PLANT – students coded their plant using a pixel art tool.






4. PLANT PUZZLE – students designed plant puzzles based on their plant image.




5. FLAMING TEXT PLANT – students created artistic logos with the name of their plant with FlamingText app.





6. REBUS PUZZLE PLANT – students wrote the name of their plant using emojis and symbols.






As part of EU Code Week 2024, participants also took part in the “Plants in a Coding View” event and proudly uploaded their certificates of participation.

This cross-border collaboration strengthens not only students’ digital and creative skills, but also promotes European teamwork, environmental awareness, and 21st-century learning.
