This document outlines a project inviting teachers to present interesting activities they do at school or in their free time. It aims to inspire collaboration between teachers and students from different cultures. Teachers are encouraged to submit short video presentations of their activities by April and May with English subtitles. Suggested activity topics include environmentalism, sightseeing, celebrations, animals, books, and humor. Online meetings will be held in May for students aged 5-11 and 12-18 to present selected activities. Tasks are distributed among partners to set up social media pages, surveys, an ebook and more to support the project.
2. Description of the project
• Created due to the kind help of Ela Yildirim ( my
Turkish co-founder), Gabriela Gasner and
Roxana Sima
• The project invites teachers of different
disciplines to present interesting activities they
do at school or outdoors with children and
adolescents. Examples: creative activities,
sports, music, cinema, gastronomy, language
classes, geography, etc.
• It also gives the occasion to students to present
what they are doing during their free time.
3. Aims of the project
• to get inspired from each other, through a nice
collaboration ( exchange of ideas, of teaching
methods, but also to learn from each other how to
use the Web 2 tools).
• to focus on learning but also to give us and our
students the opportunity to learn more about
different cultures
• to invite many teachers to affirm themselves.
Please use English subtitles for the short videos
which present sequences of your activities !
4. Subjects suggested for the activities in
April and May
Please choose two subjects in April and two in
May in what order you wish!
1. How to save our planet? ( because there is
the World Earth Day on the 22nd of April)
2. A sightseeing tour in our cities
3. National celebrations (and family time)
4. Let’s talk about animals! ( because there is
the International Pet Day on the 11th of April)

Day Book on the 22nd of April

Day on the 7th of May): humor in different
countries, jokes

6. Online meetings for a better
interaction
• For a better interaction, I suggest you to
organize online meetings taking into
consideration our students’ ages: 5-11 and 12-
18.
• an online meeting in May for kindergarten and
primary teachers and their pupils in order to
present some of their activities related on the
suggested subjects in April and May. Please fix
yourselves the date(s) and the hours and
organize you as you wish when you are at
school!
7. • one online meeting for students and
teachers who teach students between 12 and
18. I suggest 15 or 22nd of May during the
day, when everybody is at school and we can
do the activity online ( monitors: Roxana
Matei, Ela Yildirim)
8. The online meetings will present
- some activities from April and May presented
by the teachers who invented them
- games for the students (in wordwall, kahoot,
etc…)
- a poll for the students in order to vote the
most interesting activities
- the most interesting activities will be then
gathered in an electronic book with short
comments at the end of the electronic book
9. List with students’ name and their
