project; students collaborated on creating the final outputs— a digital magazine, an international eco-calendar, a forest map, and a summary video; and all materials were posted and discussed in the shared TwinSpace area, allowing everyone to view and appreciate the work of their international peers.
Preschoolers and students developed essential social and digital skills, as well as creativity and intercultural awareness. They improved their English communication skills by collaborating with international peers via online platforms and engaging in creative tasks, such as creating posters, videos, and digital essays. Through this collaboration, they strengthened their teamwork, empathy, and respect for diversity, learning to value differences and inclusion. Students also enhanced their digital competencies by using online tools( such as Canva, Padlet, or Genially) to create and share content responsibly, while simultaneously developing an understanding of digital citizenship, safety, and ethics.
The project fostered environmental and STEAM education, critical and creative thinking, problem-solving, and selfexpression through artistic and digital means. Ultimately, it promoted a strong sense of European identity and active citizenship, helping preschoolers and students become responsible, openminded, and collaborative members of both their local and European communities. The project aimed to equip preschoolers and students with naturebased life skills while enabling them to explore the natural world through STEM
disciplines. Through hands-on activities, students learned about soil conservation, composting, and the water cycle. They engaged in inquiry-based STEM activities and developed creative problem-solving skills to address real-world challenges in nature and promote sustainable lifestyle habits. Collaboration, the use of digital tools, and a love for nature were emphasized throughout the project.
