The project arises from the vital importance of healthy habits among teenagers, as many of them prefer staying at home just playing computer games instead of spending time with friends in move outside. We have also observed the problem of overweighing and even obesity among students. We need to show them that they can solve these problem working together with teachers and parents.Our objectives are:- to encourage students to spend more time outside doing sports- to discuss healthy diet (new food pyramid) and show them how the diet can influence our health- to promote board games and traditional games outdoors;- to provide the opportunity for students to reflect on the way they learn better and achieve success ;- to help students to analyze and deal with emotions;- to illustrate the students how children spent time 20/30/60 years ago and what they still can do now- to develop key competences - to motivate children learning English- to motivate children to know new cultures, not to be afraid of foreigners, to show children must respect other cultures.- to increase teachers´ language skills- to share ideas, methodology for teaching art, PE, music and English.The main actors in the project will be the children (aged 11-15, about 550 students) and their teachers (35), but we hope whole school communities will benefit too. Children as a subject of learning, and teachers as mentors, friends who guide and support planning. The parent-child relationship will be on the basis of friendship and trust. The teacher as a pedagogue will encourage, plan, motivate and organize children, and they will be the main interactive players in lessons and activities. Parents will be an important part of this line - with all their activities, especially those outdoors, will be realized. Very important is the support of local authorities and the media, which will create a positive attitude in the community. Important for this project are the leisure ans sports centres workers, sports instructors, dietitians, mountain guides and others who could help us make the project activities more interesting, useful, attractive, entertaining and challenging for students.The project is divided into 6 parts - challenges and students will have to face the challenges working in groups at schools and in international groups using Twinspace and other safe tools and finally during live meetings in each school.The Challenges are:1. Let's know each other school life. How the school lives are similar and different in our countries?2. Nature in our life. Do we really take advantage of natural wealth nearby?3. Free time. How do we spent our free time at home after school?4. Healthy diet. Do we pay attention to what and how we eat?5. Let’s Move. Do we like being in move?6. Emotions in our daily life. Can we cope with our emotions? How important is it in teenager's life?During the project it is expected that in most of the activities the “inverted classroom model” is applied, it means that students will have an active role in their learning processes, they will be able to choose the learning path that suits each of them individually and in groups, working cooperatively, the teachers will assume, mostly, a “facilitator role”, they will guide the students during their learning processes. During the whole process students will have also the opportunity to reflect on the ways each one of them learns better, so that they can get to know themselves better as active learners and achieve conclusions in order to be more successful at school and in their daily lives. The project is aimed to widen the children’s horizons by learning about themselves , partner schools , their cultures and countries. They will get the chance to improve their skills and broaden their interests including their attitude to their health and lifestyle. We hope that children will benefit from sharing ideas, experiences, teaching material with partner colleagues. They will be able to improve professionally by meeting and interacting with teachers from partner schools and being inspired to innovate and taking advantage of different educational systems.The institutions will gain innovative and modern image sharing different approaches with children, various teaching methods, educational innovations, to get a real European dimension in each educational institution. We want to focus on student-activating teaching methods, for example: project, brainstorming, peer-to-peer learning, group work (in real life during mobilities and online on project Twinspace and using different ICT tools)Erasmus+ corners and displays will appear in all institutions. The project will become an integral part of the planned curriculum in each school.The work and the end products will be adapted in order to meet the needs and interests of the target group.We also aim to spread the most meaningfull experiences to a larger target audience through local , regional, national authorities.
