Portugal




All the Portuguese stories were collected and compiled into a lovely book. Here is a photo of our book and of our puppets.


Johnny's story






















These last months Johnny has been very busy visiting several schools around Fundão. He has had a great time! He has been showing our puppets, the “rug of Portugal” and telling pupils and teachers all about our interesting Comenius Project.

In April he went to Tortosendo’s Middle School (Agrupamento de Escolas do Tortosendo) where three different classes from the 5th, 6th and 7th grades had the opportunity to play out Johnny’s story with the rug and the puppets. In exchange they played out a story from a book. They all had a great time.

Johnny was also invited to a Teacher’s Training Secession at São Vicente da Beira School. He couldn’t believe it! He was surrounded by teachers! They all touched him and played with all the puppets. It was so exciting! Teachers loved the story.
