Croatian human chain reaction in 2 versions
Hello, dear partners!
We've decided to present a compilation of our two different body chain reactions: one, recorded 3 months ago in the Zadar centre (outside), the other in front of our School Nativity scene and our Christmas tree!
Yes, we are also one year older, but, as you may recognise, these are girls of 13 who could only join this school year. We're planning to involve the children aged 9-10 in the Technical chain reaction 2013.
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a joyful New 2013!

The Human Chain reaction from Finland!
We have had very busy weeks lately and somebody has been sick every day. That's why we waited until the last day before filming this. Unfortenately three pupils were still absent today! But we did this with the rest of the class anyway! Hope you enjoy the film with a lot of snow and some elves!
Greetings from Ohkola school in Mäntsälä, Finland!

The rules of the game...
The European Chain Reaction 2013 is a science/art
project for primary schools wishing to create, film and upload a
"Rube-Goldberg/Robert Storm Petersen-like" chain reaction. This
project is a competition and a European collaboration! The school which uploads
the most astonishing, creative chain reaction not only wins a trophy, but also
wins tons of faim! In the end all videos will be emerged into ONE BIG
CROSS BORDER EUROPEAN CHAIN REACTION (look at the European Chain
reaction 2012)!
This eTwinningproject allows as many as possible
European schools - all from different countries - to enter the competition! By
entering the competition you agree to the following rules:
The timeline:
- When you enter the competition, your school e-mails
an image of the school and a short text in which the school presents herself!
- Your kids present themselves in a short video.
The best way to do this is by presenting themselves in a human chain reaction. This video should be uploaded by Friday December 21st 2012.
- You and your class will have until Friday 25th January 2013 to create,
practice, film and upload a video of your chain reaction to a videosite (like
Vimeo, Youtube, ...) and embed it in this blog.
- When all videos are uploaded to the blog every
school will watch the entries of the other participants and will decide on wich
countries receive the points (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 points).
All points should be e-mailed to Dave Schrauwen by Thursday January 31st 2013.
- On Friday the class of Dave will record a newsflash
announcing who will be the winner of the project. The link to this video will
be kept secret until Monday February 4th
11:00
(Brussels time). On 11:00 Brussels time the video will
be embedded into the website, so everyone can find out how well they scored in
this competition! The winning school will be sent a specially commissioned
trophy, but above all wins the everlasting respect of all the other
participants!
RULES
1. Only one school from each country will be allowed
to enter. We would like to have as many as possible European countries
involved!
2. The European Chain Reaction 2013-project is for
primary schools only!
3. Once you have agreed to enter and submitted your
request to the project coordinator, Dave Schrauwen you will receive an
invitation to become a partner in the project, followed later by a separate
invitation to contribute to the project's blog. You need to sign up for the
blog, whereby you will be able to upload your finished chain reaction in due
course. In addition, please send Dave a brief description of your school, along
with a photograph, that Dave will add to the blog, so that each country can see
who is all taking part.
4. All schools will upload a short video in which they
present themselves so all contestants can get to know their
opponents/partners! The best way to do this is by creating a human chain reaction video!
5. The actual technological chain reaction should be
created and practiced by the students and their teachers (giving them advice)
only! The chain reaction has to be a technological chain reaction.
Children may appear in the video shortly, but the technological aspect is the
most important! Look at the winning 2011 video for a very good exemple!
6. The length of the chain reaction video should be
between 60 and 120 seconds. The video may be shot by the teacher or the
children
7. Every partner is responsible for his own
entry! When inserting music into the video, please use music that is
copyright free. You could use a creative commons sound or song. You
can find free sounds and music here: http://dig.ccmixter.org/
8. All entries should be completed by Friday 25th January 2013. When your
chain reaction is ready, you upload the video of this chain reaction to the
blog, via www.blogger.com using either the “upload video” section of the site,
or by uploading your video to Vimeo, YouTube, ... then copying and pasting the
embed code into your blog post. All files MUST be uploaded by Friday 25th Januray, as each
country will then need to watch all the entries and judge them during the
following week- Monday 28th -
Thursday 31st January.
9. Please encourage your children to post a comment on
the videos sent in by other countries. By doing so, your children will
learn some ICT and learn expressing themselves in a foreign language.
10. Once you and your pupils have watched each entry
and chosen your favourites, email your choices to Dave Schrauwen, BEFORE Friday 31st January, so the
pupils of Dave can create and record the newsflash on who is the winner of the
project on Friday January 31st.
YOU MUST NOT VOTE FOR YOUR OWN ENTRY!
11. The newsflash in which the winner of the competition
will be announced and the European Chain Reaction will be showed will be added
to the blog on Monday
February 4th at 11:00
Brussels time, in order for everyone to find out at the same time who has won
the competition!
GOOD LUCK to all countries, enjoy making your entry,
and watching all the other entries!
Michael Purves & Dave Schrauwen
