Gadgets to the partners: Tita…the pencil (Kindergarten team)

The choice of the gadget and its realization comes from the background theme used in the methodological-teaching this year titled: "Travelling with Tita the pencil.“ "TITA PENCIL" fantastic character, takes the children to discover the world during the school year. A wonderful "journey" of exploration, knowledge, discovery of the environment, development of identity, of self and personality. Through the imaginary journey, TITA PENCIL will accompany the children to discover the continents: they shall know of the social culture, traditions, nature, landscape and appreciate the richness, diversity and equalities. That's why we chose to dress TITA PENCIL from Pulcinella mask that is a character officially invented in Naples, in the second half of the sixteenth century. Children, through a small workshop path, had fun create some nice Pulcinella.

The next works were made by students who are 10 years old and attending the fifth class of primary school. Teachers have planned, from the beginning of the school year, graphic-pictorial activities that have seen all the children participate. The students have designed objects that will be presented in the first meeting that will be in Kosice, Slovakia, all of this to touch with hand some of our crafts.
