Introduction

Once upon a time there was a family of teachers and students who never stopped fantasizing and thinking about how to save our beautiful planet and one of its most valuable resources, which is water …
‘Drop by drop’ is an eTwinning project that is carried out between five European countries: Spain, Finland, Greece, Italy and Slovakia. Little drops of water make the mighty ocean!

This project is created for primary school students in order to explore and discover the importance of water as an essential element of the life of all living beings on the planet Earth, as well as all its manifestations. It gives the children a chance to be creative and to work together with their partners as a means to understand why they should care about saving this valuable resource and how they can help.

Edy, our mascot.

Edy was made collaboratively with each school sewing a different body part.

Edy traveled 9.389 km around all of the countries.

Edy is the mascot of the eTwinning Drop by Drop project. He is not a simple mascot. Edy is a collaborative mascot. He is the symbol of our love and friendship. An exploring otter - we have all agreed on this species after investigating and discovering that otters are one of the common endangered species of all our countries. He was made collaboratively with each school sewing a different body part.

Edy needs water and can thrive in lakes, freshwater rivers, oceans, and along coastlines. We all love Edy and we all need water! The moral of this fable written by students from our five countries is to save water for all living beings. Water is life. No water, no future!
For this reason, all of the partners of the project have decided to write this fable. Each class has written their verse and included their drawings.

Finally, with all of the composed verses a rap song was created in which the children showed their enthusiasm, creativity, talent and real interest in defending and saving our precious water resources. This collaborative video is shown in the last pages of this ebook. We hope you enjoy the video as much as the children of these five countries did when they made it.
