"Once upon a time.... A ""danced tale"" totally imagined and created over several months by the students and the teacher. From reading, they write and through the meeting of professional artists, they stage and choreograph their common history. The place of arts subjects in school curricula reflects the priority given to art education at the elementary and secondary levels, which is conducive to the learning of creativity in schools. In the context of a strong drop-out rate in many European countries, reinforced by recent migratory movements, educational actors are confronted with new pedagogical challenges. Project managers aware of the transnational nature of these concerns, which affect different countries in Europe, wish to optimize their practices by experimenting with this approach among partners facing the same problems (Portugal and Italy). More and more authors are interested in this issue, which concerns many educational systems. The Annaba association, supported by the National Education Department, has been working with school institutions and municipalities in Indre et Loire since 2003 to support the pedagogical work of teachers. Dance and culture is a path to success for many students from sensitive suburbs. Through these experiences, participants change the way students and families view their teachers and the school, thus creating the basis for pedagogical effectiveness. The project has two objectives: to reduce the drop-out rate among sensitive and multicultural populations in these neighborhoods; and to improve understanding and communication between target audiences: teachers, students and families. Project managers aware of the transnational nature of these concerns, which affect different countries in Europe, wish to optimize their practices by experimenting with this approach among partners facing the same problems (Portugal and Italy). The transnational character of the project is a priority. It should allow comparison between the means used in these approaches and the effectiveness of the results obtained in different countries. To do this, the teachers of the partner countries produce an educational briefcase, nine commented tales and a DVD. The students imagine, write and stage their original creations with teachers and families: nine danced tales presented on stage and deposited in the library."
