(Glaine) poste
(Glaine) Ou voulez vous mettre la poste ?
(Woking) We think E1
(Glaine) e2
(Glaine) e1, il y a plus d'espace
(Glaine) nous sommes d'accord pour e1
(Woking) (Michaela) E2 is not a bad idea: it's near the church and the mosque
(Woking) But we like E1
(Woking) Sorry, we voted and it's E2 here!
(Glaine) Both !!!
(Glaine) Donc, la poste sera en e2 pour etre pres de l'eglise et de la mosquee
(Glaine) ferme/farm
(Glaine) Ou voulez vous mettre la ferme ?
(Glaine) (kevin) loin du village, f7. il y a aussi la riviere
(Woking) We're thinking about the farm...
(Woking) We love F7 but it's a bit too near the river... However in F7 the ducks can swim
(Glaine) -)
(Woking) We tought of F6 as well
(Glaine)
(Glaine) Oui !!!!
(Glaine) F6!!!
(Woking) Brilliant let's say F6 then!!
(Glaine) auberge/inn
(Woking) But could we have a path from F6 to F7 for the ducks
(Glaine) Pour l'auberge, que pensez vous ?
(Glaine) Nous sommes d'accord pour le chemin des canards !
(Woking) Near the shops, 1D?
(Glaine) Shops are in B1
(Woking) C1 then?
(Glaine) (Kevin) je voudrais que se soit vers les arbres...
(Woking) We haven't discussed the trees yet...
(Glaine) Kevin et Vincent pensent que C1 est trop pres des magasins. Les autres n'ont pas d'avis.
(Glaine) (Marjorie) B6, vers les maisons.
(Woking) D1 maybe - and we could put some forest around it later?
(Woking) B6 is a good one though
(Glaine) D1, nous sommes d'accord avec des arbres autour.
(Woking) D1 for the restaurant, yes!
(Glaine) port/harbor
(Glaine) Leelou veut un port.... ou le mettons nous ?
(Glaine) (Kevin) E7 et F7 car le bateau est grand
(Woking) C7 or A1(Even if it's the park)
(Glaine) C7 pour nous....
(Glaine) [Jennifer : are you ready ?]
(Woking) We don't like F7 and E7 because the ducks may be crushed by the boat we prefer D7
(Guest/Invité) yes I am ready, let me know when I should start
(Glaine) Nous sommes donc tous d'accord pour D7.... de toute facon, les canards peuvent voler :o)
(Glaine) Kids, we stop there for the map....
(Glaine) questions
(Woking) D7
(Glaine) Jennifer, nous t'ecoutons.

(Guest/Invité) What have you learned about the children in the other two countries who have participated in this project?
(Glaine) Pour le Senegal, qu'il y a des lions et des girafes.
(Woking) They're good at drawing - They have different chairs and tables
(Guest/Invité) anything else?
(Glaine) Pour Woking, nous avons appris qu'il n'y a pas de cantines, qu'ils apportent leur repas et mangent en salle de gym.
(Glaine) L'ecole de Woking est aussi plus grande que la notre, il y a plusieurs classes !
(Woking) Their school is smaller
(Woking) they draw different things
(Woking) The clothes are ddifferent
(Glaine) Nous sommes une ecole de campagne et Dalifort et Woking des ecoles de villes
(Woking) They speak different languages
(Guest/Invité) what was the most important thing you learned by designing the village and electing the mayor?
(Glaine) Nous avons appris a voter !
(Glaine) Il faut pour voter une urne, des enveloppes, des bulletins et un isoloir.
(Glaine) (Marjorie) Le plan m'a appris a placer des dessins.
(Woking) Election was great
(Woking) You have to agree and not be upset when your candidate looses
(Glaine) Election was cool
(Woking) Election is fun
(Guest/Invité) what topics have you studied on the computer? Does working on the computer make learning more fun?
