2. International activities.
• Are international projects motivational for students?
• My answer is: Yes
• International projects eTwinning and Erasmus+ are a great benefit for
teachers but especially for students.
• Our students like them because they belong to the innovative interesting
methods used in educational process at school.
• In both types of projects students have chance to know other European
countries, their languages, Educational and school system, they have
chance to use English in practical way,
to improve communication skills,
to be better in ICT,...
• They can learn how to work
in the team, to respect different
culture.

3. International projects Erasmus+
• In Erasmus+ projects students also learn how to solve various
problems in the airport, how to behave in the hotel, ...
• Thank to these projects teachers can exchange experiences and also
know better the educational and school system and innovative
educational methods in European countries.
• All participants have chance to know personally other European
countries, their geography, history, sights, life style,..
• But also virtual mobilities are very popular
at our school and they are very significant
and useful part of these projects because
more students have chance to meet their
peers from partnership countries
„face to face“ without travelling.

4. Project Days
• We organize a lot of project Days at our school to disseminate
our results and success to our pupils, teachers, parents and also
local community.
• In these Project Days our students have also chance to develope
their talent and skills because we often connect them with some
performances, songs, dances, traditions.
• We have also folk club at our school because we talk about
traditions in the most of our projects.

5. Etwinning, Comenius and Erasmus+
• Our school was involved into a lot of etwinning projects, we were
the winner in European competition of the best etwinning project
in 2014 with the project „Art connects us“.
• We are working now on the 7th international project with
exchanges of pupils „My country, your country“. At the same
time we are involved also into project „Historical treasures of
Europe“.
• The projects had and have different
interesting topics and were determined
sometimes on younger pupils –
also from nursery.
/ Let´s play and learn together/
and sometimes on older pupils. / Let´s save the life on our planet / .

6. eTwinning
• Etwinning program is the part of Erasmus+ program and it is
important for our project “My country, your country“ to be active in
this program.
• So we could do some interesting activities also in this space – some
quizzes, contests, on-line activities.
• Why? A larger number of pupils could be involved in these
activities. That is the aim of our project: not only travelling
and international meetings,
but a lot of activities
at school, games,
virtual mobilities,
collages, contests,
on-line activities,...
