Project Summary

Summary:
Building on our need in promoting potential concepts we have developed an integrative, innovative concept to combine healthy eating and sports activities, the promotion of foreign language skills at the level of pupils and teachers as well as the promotion of the quality and motivation of further education within the teacher profession.
In addition to the treatment of the described competences, we have managed to formulate a tangible current topic and to fill it with life.
We meet the challenges of our time with a coherent concept to meet our ecotrophological and sports physiological responsibilities.
Through the joining of sports and culinary activities we create friendships, which is a valuable piece of the mosaic for a peaceful coexistence of all involved.

Aims:
– Sustainable competence acquisition on the importance of healthy nutrition
– Sustainable motivation to move, to try new things and to develop and develop pleasure in sports activities
– Increase the motivation to acquire foreign language skills
– Acquisition and development of key qualifications
– To promote the importance and diversity of Europe in its facets and to promote European coexistence

Number and profile of the participants:
The directly participating groups are 8 students and 2 teachers from each partner schools. Furthermore, the nutrition group of our school, the community, parents, partners of the region as well as representatives of different institutions and associations are actively involved in the planning and implementation.

Beschreibung der Aktivitäten:
– various sports activities: a variety of water sports (surfing, bodyboarding, water skiing, …), kayaking, climbing, hiking, wheelchair basketball and various country typical forms of play
– Various seminars on the topic “Healthy Lifestyle”
– shared purchases and cooking parties
– Creation of the “SpoLinaria” – a cooking and exercise book
– Creation of a project-accompanying film
– Evaluation via questionnaires and interviews
– Health Day and “Sports Fun Party” at the schools

Methodology:
Our methodology aims at a holistic, action-oriented and motivating approach. There is an authentic learning at inner and extracurricular learning places. The SuS are stimulated to think and deal cooperatively and action-oriented with the topic of the project. As a result, they develop sustainable prospects for a healthy lifestyle.
Teaching foreign languages in tandem work and opening up the perspective for the European labor market should be mentioned here as a selection of methods. Media involvement on platforms for communication and project planning as well as the evaluation and creative design of end products round off the work here.

Results:
Dealing with the subject of a healthy lifestyle with the aspects of “nutrition and exercise”, a sustainable awareness for the same is created. The attractive topic leads to a multiplication in the immediate living environment of the participants.
As tangible products, we make “SpoLinaria” a cook and exercise book. In addition, as a reminder of the joint project time, we will create a documentary film.
The project offers us the opportunity to release young people into the autonomous part of their lives, who, as mature Europeans ,stand for a common future.
