Project Summary

WE SEND PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN AS SCHOOL AMBASSADORS TO EVERY PARTNER SCHOOL DURING THE TRANSNATIONAL PROJECT VISITS ACCOMPANIED BY EXPERIENCED RESPONSIBLE TEACHERS.
DURING THESE VISITS THE CHILDREN AND TEACHERS HAVE THE CHANCE TO EXPLORE THE HISTORICAL HERITAGE OF EACH SURROUNDING AREA :
– FRANCE – LOUIS XIV IN VERSAILLES AND IN VAUX LE VICOMTE
– GERMANY – LUDWIG II, HIS LIFE, CASTLES AND INVENTIONS
– GREECE – ALEXANDER THE GREAT IN MACEDONIA
– ENGLAND – JOSEPH SWAN, INVENTOR OF THE LIGHT BULB, DESCENDED FROM HYLTON CASTLE (VICTORIAN AGE)
– SPAIN – BREOGAN, THE CELTIC KING (CASTROS AGE)
– POLAND – NICOLAUS COPERNIKUS, MATHEMATICIAN AND ASTRONOMER, AND HIS TOWN TORUN

CHILDREN WILL BE ABLE TO DO THE RESEARCH USING THE INTERNET, HISTORICAL BOOKS, VISITING HISTORICAL PLACES OF INTEREST, INTERVIEWING GUIDES AND HISTORIANS. WE ARE WORKING WITH ICT, VISITING LIBRARIES, MUSEUMS AND CASTLES.
TEACHERS USE ICT AS A MEANS OF COMMUNICATION, SOURCE OF INFORMATION AND WORKING TOOL.
AS RESULTS, EACH SCHOOL WILL HAVE LEARNT ABOUT A PIECE OF HISTORIC TIME AND PRODUCE A VIDEO WITH A COMMON THEME TUNE.
EACH SCHOOL WILL DECIDE HOW TO BUILT A TIME MACHINE WHERE DOCTOR WHO AND CHILDREN ARE TRAVELLING WITH THE CHOSEN CHARACTER.
