The project will cover the following activities:1)Kids Yoga2) Ice Skating3) Football Tournament4)Seminar5)Mischievous Games and Competitions: 6)Documentary7)Modern Dance8)Orienteering and Trekking.It is our primary concern to choose the partners from totally different cultures. Thus, different cultures will be seen during the project and this will exchange the different approaches to same problem. We are five countries with five different schools from primary to secondary school with National Education Directorate in Turkey. The partners were chosen from e-twinning and school web pages. To sum up their properties; Firstly, Ankara Provincial Directorate for National Education (APDNE) is a governmental organization and one of the most suitable partner for dissemination of project results in a wider community. The other Turkish partner, Mithatpaşa primary school, is located in a disadvantage area of Turkey. Other partner, 14th Primary school of Acharnes (Greece), have a class specialized to immigrants pupils. Most students in CFI Gabriel Pérez Cárcel (Spain) come from middle-class families. I.C.Federico II diSvevia (Italy) school has the vision of being their own manager and fulfilling his engagements and show more responsibility in his task. Lastly, Primary school Dobrova have some students immigrants from ex-Yugoslavian republics, Bosnia and Macedonia and Kosovo. Sometimes they are not accepted by other students, who come from middle class families with no understanding for different children. For the long term benefit; all the experiences and results made known through the presentations, website, a Twinspace for the project at the E-twinning platform can be used by all the communities to continue studies, research and teaching on related issues to the project´s themes. Thus, the project´s achievements will not be an end product in itself. It will produce a wave effect in which other communities, organizations and schools can take advantage of and use our findings in coming years, to help teach and spread a more conscious awareness about fair play.The outcomes of the project are: Pupils assess will not only be in terms of quality of project’s final results,but also in the terms of quality of human relationships. The pupils will work together for project activities and it develops trust with others, group learning, personal and cognitive skills (problem solving, decision making, planning and reflecting)• Pupils will be more related to fair play in a more positive way, respecting behaviours where they live through project activities • Pupils, families and teachers understand and value themselves first and then value others as European citizens and develop civic competencies for an active citizenship in their lifestyle for a better understanding of the role of the European Union in education and society. • Pupils and their families will have deeper understanding of fair play through activities, web site and informative days. • The results of the project will reach a wide audience outside the partnership through web site, media, facebook, posters, and informative days thus contributing to the achievements of the project objectives.
