Lesson about bridges and a trip to Klaipeda and... the Baltic sea!

On Tuesday we went to school at eight in the morning and had an ethics lesson. We had to build a bridge out of paper in teams who weren‘t allowed to communicate verbally with the other teams. Working in mixed groups was great!








Not every bridge stayed strong...

After that we folded paper boats and wrote some aspects of communication on them. The top three words were „kindness“, „Vertrauen“ and „sąžiningumas“.

Then we had the opportunity to visit a Lithuanian lesson with our exchange partner but most of us rather ate somthing because the food in the cafeteria is so delicious.
Around 10 am we left for Klaipeda. When we arrived after a 30-minute bus ride we visited Klaipeda castle also known as Memel castle. A nice woman greeted us and showed us around – sometimes trilingual. In an old brick room under a former tower we played some medieval games together (including the teachers), such as trying to throw rings on a stick.

Mirjam was the winner in this game

Teachers´ competition!
Everybody had a lot of fun and we laughed very much. Before we went on we had some free time, which most of us spent in the old town of Klaipeda. At 1:45 pm we headed towards the seaside and after arriving there we went for a walk along the beach, collected some stones and took some nice pictures. It was really windy but the view was beautiful and extraordinary.
















After that we went to a visitor center and created some artsy mugs out of clay, which our parters will bring next year when they visit us in Germany. The whole day was a great experience and we had a lot of fun.
