Objectives

We wanted -to increase the European and international dimension of inclusive education -the students with fewer opportunities to feel included -to develop knowledge/understanding among students and educational staff of the diversity of European cultures -the students (and teachers) to gain a greater understanding of differences but also discover that, even though we come from different cultures, we also have many similarities between us -to break down the barriers of hatred and prejudices, fight against racism and xenophobia -to develop knowledge/understanding among students and educational staff of the diversity of European Common Values (especially democracy and equality) -to develop knowledge/understanding among students and educational staff of the diversity of European languages, to improve their English -to encourage and motivate students - and especially students with special needs - and teachers in language education, to find similarities in our languages, to improve their English -to allow students - and especially students with special needs - to approach tasks through creative approaches -to support teachers via sharing knowledge and exchange experiences -to acquire skills and competences for students´ better future

Activities

We implemented LTT meetings (each partner has hosted a mobility) during which we -created a song and transformed the song into a Musical Theatre Play -presented traditional instruments from each country -offered different activities with the aim of improvement the knowledge of the different cultures. Among other things the participants visited historical places, museums, a rock theatre and places which are important in different ways locally and nationally, the participants attended ordinary lessons, the students participated in different workshops connected to our goals. (See below on Results) We also had virtual meetings. Before mobilities we met at least twice to plan the mobility and to let the students meet their hosts. After the mobilities we met virtually to highlight different aspects from the evaluations, to improve the next mobility. Between the mobilities we carried out different tasks. As examples we can mention creating Christmas Cards/Friendship cards. The cards were sent physically to each partner. Another example is "Traditions in my country", where the students used digital tools to present typical traditions in each country. We celebrated Erasmus Day/Europe Day through different activities locally and in common
