At the end of the project, we organised exhibitions
with works on the theme proposed in the project in
the partner institutions, to create a teaching aid
with hygienic rules and an online exhibition of
photos during the activities. At the end of the
project, each partner teaching partner received a
participation certificate.
It was a wonderful project and it has as a result a
tangible one, a little online book translated into
English, Spanish and Romanian. Everybody liked
the project, so we will continue this wonderful idea.
This project gave us the opportunity to perform a
lot of practical activities at school and outside the
school. For example we decorated our school
gardens, we planted trees and cultivated flowers
and vegetables, we prepared exhibitions and more.
Above all we tried with our students to raise
awareness about our beautiful planet among our
community, and to take action. It has been also a
great opportunity for democratic participation.

EARTH”
https://live.etwinning.net/projects/project/174284
is about environment and its connections with some
sustainable development goals (for example
numbers 6, 7, 13, 14, 15) and it involves 4
countries (Croatia, Italy, Romania and Tunisia), 324
students and 21 teachers.
The project has been designed to implement and
enhance various pedagogical methods, as the main
aims of the project were using 21st century
strategies to develop and enhance the students’
potential.
The students make decisions and express their
