WE WANT HAPPY STUDENTS

Description

The teachers of the schools involved in the project noticed that the number of students with difficulties is rising because of learning and behaviour problems. Moreover, disparities are growing and there is a need for adapted teaching and greater involvement of students in their learning process. Our priorities are 1. Supporting schools to tackle early school leaving (ESL) and disadvantage 2. Promoting the acquisition of skills and competences 3. Improving health and wellbeing. Our purpose clearly focused on student success. Six themes were developed during three years. They focused on specific abilities and were prepared beforehand both in each school and in coordination between the four schools to be ready for the short-term exchanges. These students meetings allowed to share our work and enrich it at others’ contact. Our project targeted 500 people: a minimum of four to five classes in each school were impacted. Plus teachers, parents, school authorities, theater specialists, local authorities, firms, nutrition professionals, nurses, local associations and local newspapers. Our aim being the raising of academic standards, students involved will be those who have the most difficulties. The mobilities during the short term exchanges were even increased by at least 50% even with the lockdown due to Covid-19 which prevented the last meeting in France. After evaluating the needs of our students in each school, the teachers teams involved in the project implemented activities. We used ICT to film experiences in science, language or vocational activities. We also used physical education to enhance their autonomy and self-confidence, to strengthen social cohesion. The practice of drama, games, dance and music allowed the practice of basic skills (reading, writing, mathematics and science). The European dimension of our project benefited from the practice of foreign languages when sharing activities on eTwiining and our blog and during the students’ mobilities. Our activities consisted in :Get to know each otherForeign language activities shared before students meet : theatre, creative writing of personal stories of students..., Historical and cultural knowledge of partners. During the short-term exchange: ice-breaking activities, special-needs students presenting our region and habits, languages games, exhibition of tourist guides and books made by students, theatre acitivities among mixed-languages groups, teaching of body percussions, badmindton competition. Olympiad and Eurovision Sports and music activities in order to think about solidarity and rules for a better life togetherDuring the short-term exchange: Olympiad (Sports related activities between transnational teams)Eurovision (songs and choreographies)Award ceremony (Assessment by students’ and parents’ votes) My future jobOrganizing a jobs forum and training to find a jobDuring the short-term exchange: jobs forum. Take care of oneselfActivities to warn about health risk in everyday life and at work. Study of emergency situations and first aid gesturesDuring the short-term exchange: Making of a warning campaign Maths and sciences in everyday lifeMathematics and science experimentations linked to everyday lifeDuring the short-term exchange: Maths and science competition Grand Final : was cancelled because of Covid-19making of a method book with the best of all our activities : was made with virtual meetings Students always remained at the centre of their learning process being personally involved in each activity. The process was reviewed and evaluated regularly using data from multiple assessments – self-assessment, formative and summative assessment. Teachers were committed to a regular schedule to align their decisions and actions toward continuous improvement to achieve the project’s purpose making our transnational project meeting a necessity. Goals :-Give students more confidence in educative systems in order to succeed at school and in their future life. Goal reached = 10 students applied to European mobilities in France.-Improve measurably our pedagogic methods for the students’ benefits. Goal reached = writing of a method book with our successful achievements. -Measurement of students’ progress. Goal reached = assesments were conducted at the end of each meeting.-Disseminating our experience : activities were highlighted thanks to a display on our website and in each school to a larger audience. Goal reached.-Sustainability of the project : Thanks to our website, our webmagazine and E-Twinning, our project will sustain with as many schools as possible. Effective experimentations implemented will be usable to a larger number of educative teams since we shared them all. We added a transnational meeting in Barcelona in November 2019 as we were advised
