What is the project about?

In this Erasmus+ project entitled "Finding our roots" we would like to:

  • raise awareness of the common history and values;

  • recognize the different beliefs and customs belonging to our origins with mutual understanding;

  • realize the importance of the cultural heritage with the partners in the project and understand that the value of heritage comes from its inheritors - from the living;

  • enhance awareness among European citizens and especially among the youth on the importance of using intercultural dialogue;

  • make History lessons more interesting for the students by exchanging experiences with each other;

  • reinforce a sense of community by practising cultural traditions which are important to pass on shared values from one generation to another;

  • train individuals, integrated to the cultural identity of our age approching with respect and understanding to different cultures;

  • promote foreign language learning and sharing through the use of ICT.

We've planned the activities related to our objectives such as:

  • presenting the schools including their own history, customs and traditions;

  • preparing questionnaires on the project among children, teachers and parents at the beginning, in the middle and at the end of the project;

  • organizing "Internatinal Days" activities after the mobilities;

  • arranging "Parents-Children Day" activities to perform old traditions by students with the help of their parents;

  • applying different integrated curriculum activities in history classes;

  • organizing workshops on cuisine, traditional dances, customs, etc;

  • doing videoconferences.
