Project Summary

” Let’s create our book together ” project aims to be an education project predominately centered on “ENHANCING BOOK READING, CHANGING INTO PRACTICAL ACTIVITIES” and taking students to read much more, to be more active through their participation in different activities such as ICT, Arts, Literary, Media, Social and Volunteering. Its main move is “ACTIVE AND EDUCATED CITIZENSHIP”. This partnership is developed by schools from PL, GR, IT, LT, TR.
OBJECTIVES
Our students will become active readers and they will improve their skills on how to create their own quality products from the books they have read. We will endeavor to make books more important again since they are a vital source for real information. With this project, we will manage to increase the amount of reading books in our schools’ curricula. With the project we will decrease the lack of book reading and increase the average level of book reading in our schools’ curricula.
ACTIVITIES
Two types of action are included in this project.
-Students will read different kinds of books such as Novels, Poetry, Biographies, Philosophy.
-They will improve their literacy levels and will develop activities such as SCENARIO, writing essays, creating a poetry magazine, filming and editing short FILMs. Each partner will read their own national authors and, when they come together in the LTTA meetings, they will share them and produce their activities together.
METHODOLOGY
We will create project clubs in each partner school and will invite the students to join the club. A minimum of fifty students will be involved. Five different teams will be formed: Literature Team, ICT Team, Culture Team, Magazine Team, Arts Team. Each team will have tasks for a certain period of time regarding the different planned stages and activities of the project. There are four LTTAs in two years and 1TM at the beginning of the project. Teachers will involve the students in order to do all kinds of activities (book reading, creation of scenario, magazine, making short FILMs, etc)
PARTICIPANTS
In the project, students are our main target and its stages are planned for them. Teachers are coaches and beneficiaries in this whole process. Other participants included are the administrative staff. Side beneficiaries of the project are parents and local community as they will be our main target groups for dissemination.
IMPACT
The project ” Let’s create our book together ” will have a positive impact within all the partner schools not only due to the direct contact and collaborative work among students and teachers from different countries, but also because of the shared good practices concerning reading books. This good practices sharing will take students to read much more, to be more active through their participation in different activities in the classroom as well as in cultural activities in the local community.
Students
Getting students involved in a wide range of activities – book reading, designing and creating book, magazine, taking scenario and writing essays – will help them develop new skills and make them more active in their daily life at school, at home and in their local communities, allowing them to raise learning processes as well promoting socio-cultural heritage through books.
Students will develop and boost their self-esteem as they will be appreciated in international contexts by participating in LTTAs workshops that will stimulate creativity and, at the same time, will help them reduce stereotypes and prejudice. Team work and ICT skills will be developed, making students prepared for the future labour market and their lives. Having the possibility to organize an international brainstorming will increase students’ dynamism, citizenship, respect, responsibility and courage to act as future leaders and as active citizens in their communities, in their own countries and all over Europe. By preparing presentations about the books they read, their school, local community and country and making videos to disseminate the mobilities, they will be able to develop their public speaking skills and communication in English.
Teachers
Teachers will have the opportunity to share professional and cultural experiences by organizing school activities, local activities and international meetings (LTTAs) within the project. They will be able to explore and learn about other educational systems, pedagogical and methodological approaches and tools concerning teaching reading, according to the European standards in line with the Organisation for European Cooperation and Development (OECD).
