INTRODUCING OURSELVES

We are 22 students attending the class 4H of the scientific high school "Giuseppe Battaglini" from Taranto, Apulia. We have chosen At School of OpenCohesion (ASOC) as a path of our PCTO experience. 

WHAT DOES SHELFIE STAND FOR?

The logo we have chosen, representative of the project, it is characterized by the prevalence of blue and red, the two typical colours of Taranto with its ancient Greek origins. The foreground is marked by the image of a small book, it refers to the place we have chosen for ASOC project: "Pietro Acclavio's Civic Library", with a trident in the right hand, also a symbol of the city of Taranto. The signature couldn't have been missing to personalize the project with the particularly original title chosen "Shelfie", born from the union of two terms "SHELF", to once again recall the library environment, and finally "SELFIE".

THE CHOICE OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE

We have decided to adopt the English language as the main one for our project. The reason is the kindness and availability of our English teacher, Mrs Maria Grazia Cuppone, as well as because English is the bridge that connects people all around the world, offering them cultural exchanges and important developing professional knowledge. Being well aware of this, our English teacher has caught the opportunity to introduce us to a more practical use of English than the one we perform at school suggesting it through a CLIL methodology.
