PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The significant impact of Covid-19 pandemics in education and the consequent lockdowns made our students turn to digital practices and many have put books and reading aside. It’s important to bring them back to reading poetry, an important cultural heritage . Clearly, in this digital era reading has become a challenge. With this perspective in mind, we will make students become more interested in poetry and in their national poets

This project aims at fostering students’ reading and writing skills both in English and their mother tongue, as well as to develop communicative skills, critical thinking, creativity and ICT skills.

The project planning was designed in a cooperative way,  and partner schools will communicate regularly through the Twinspace and/or videoconference and/ or email. Students will meet others students from other countries, learn about each other’s poetry and significant authors and they will write a collaborative poem.

OBJECTIVES
