Abstract :The report presents the main theoretical basis of the concept use of Information Society Technology (IST) at project-based approach to enhance early literacy. We have aimed at identifying some practical solutions to connect the digital tools and online instruments in the pedagogical interaction towards development of communicative competence in the pre-school groups. The aims of this study were: a) to compare the function and notion loading of the speech texts of the experimental and control groups before and after applying the didactic model based on the online Project-based learning; b) to examine whatever the online PBL suggested in the eTwinning educational portal stimulates child to create different types of texts in the frame of the communicative situation. The findings of the study show that at the percentage of texts, containing the main characteristics of a good quality text such as connectivity, organization, idiomatic, terminology-rich and meaningful connections, has significantly increased. This suggests that targeting to use online project-based approach pupils start to implement technology in meaningful ways.
