Day and eTwinning Day. Students worked hand in hand with peers from other countries, exchanging ideas, drawings, videos, and eco-messages, while enhancing their intercultural communication and collaboration skills.
Conclusion The Un-Bee-Lievable Story was not just a project; it was an educational journey turned into a story. A story about teamwork, the environment, creativity, and most importantly, about the future. A future in which schools nurture engaged, courageous children who are aware of their power to change the world.
Digital integration The digital component was essential: platforms like Tinkercad, StoryJumper, Quiver, Merge Cube, and Padlet became familiar tools for children to document their activities, model abstract concepts, and express their ideas in an original way. These activities were also successfully integrated into the national curriculum, supporting educational goals across various subjects, from science and environmental education to Romanian language, foreign languages, arts, and ICT.

Educational values Behind every activity was the desire to cultivate not just knowledge, but also values – environmental care, civic spirit, empathy, and curiosity. The students did not just learn about bees; they understood that change begins with small actions and that they can be agents of good, even from a young age.
