This eTwinning project involved students from two Greek schools - DDMN Primary in Chania and Stavraki Primary in Ioannina. The students from DDMN Primary had a grandmother tell them a traditional Cretan tale called "The Riddle". The students from Stavraki Primary then read the tale, wrote their impressions, drew pictures, and mailed them to the students in Chania. In the end, the students from both schools collaborated digitally to create their own version of "The Riddle". Through this exchange, the students learned about different cultures, practiced writing and communication skills, and enjoyed sharing with their peers.
