MAKE ME A EUROPEAN

Mid term report year 1- RESULTS 2015/2016

STUDENTS

In our curriculum students o study the European countries and the European Union as an institution IN

the II year

Thanks to this project we have been able to present Europe in a more direct and personal way, and they

have felt Europe as something real, a world of people to whom the y can relate

Through the study of the CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS they have discovered ideas and

values they can relate to

After watching the video “Make me a German” we have tried to understand the word Stereotypes and we

have tried to understand what are the stereotypes about

1. Italian, British, German and Croat and Cypriots

2. We have talked about Poland and decided to prepare a short story of Italy to explain nowadays Italy

They are now working with their History teachers to prepare a video presentation to be used during

the Italian mobility

3. While appreciating all the information coming from our partners they have learn how to appreciate

their Italian roots and recognize the foreign influence existing in our society

THE FAMILIES At the beginning of the school year we have planned some assemblies with the families of all the classes

involved. They have been interested and very cooperative. The families of the students who have taken

part in the first two mobilities, Zagreb and Warsaw have shared their satisfaction with the teachers because

their children are more motivated to learn English and they have learnt how to work effectively in

international teams.

Students and family who decide to attend our school know we have an international project going on and

ask about it and hope thay can be part of something similar in the future.

The TEACHERS

The teachers involved have planned the lessons together and talked about them (cross-curricular lessons).

More teachers, not only those involved in the project plan to join etwinning projects next year. History

teachers are working at the moment to prepare presentation about our country to show during the mobility

in Italy

Because of this project many teachers in our school have decided to take an English class to improve their

language therefore the school has organized two different courses for teachers only, one for beginners and

one for intermediate.

Our school has a consolidated IT tradition, however many new teachers have appreciated the IT tools that

have been presented to us in the webinairs and are now suing them.

THE SCHOOL

As above mentioned many teachers have started a two year English class to improve their language skill

in order to feel ready for the mobility to come

Next year our school will go through a deep re-organization. We will become a comprehensive institute,

united with some of the primary schools of our territory. The new schools too look at this project with

interest and we hope to be able to share with them some of the good practice with are experiencing
