PROMOTING LITERACY SKILLS BY STORIES OF EU

We designed a challenge that addressed to all getting to know patterns - the usage of Neil Fleming's version of scholar learning: visible, auditory, analyzing/writing preference and kinesthetic- having as key factors testimonies and storytelling.The four different learning styles, such as visual, auditory, reading/writing preference and kinesthetic, will be analyzed, identified and applied to story-related techniques. The project boosts the students’ school performance at national and international level. The activities will focus on culture and civilization by means of which the students will have the opportunity to create their own stories and increase their motivation to learn in a more attractive waySupernatural beings and events are part of every culture and can be used as teaching tools in order to develop critical thinking, imagination, creativity, empathy, appreciation, collaboration and communication. The objectives of the project are: – to stop illiteracy and develop the students’ creativity in five European schools– to emphasize similarities and differences in five European countries– to teach the students how to express themselves – to encourage students use storytelling technique within all school subjectsThe results of the project are:-working in partnership-five digital stories -questionnaires (initial and final to measure the impact of the project)-an exhibition and a carnival to promote the products of the Stories Arts & Crafts workshops-a dictionary-two magazines-five scripts suitable for five Puppet plays-five thematic carnivals (using characters from stories, fairytales, myths, etc.)-three web pages of the project (the official page and the pages using the e-Twinning and Erasmus Plus Platforms)-ten lesson plans (that are examples of good practice of story-related teaching)-promotional materials: flyers, wrist bands, bookmarks,The following activities will lead to achievement of the project’s first and second objectives:-visual learners: digital stories, bookmarks and wrist bands, questionnaires, Erasmus+ corner, logo-aural learners: web-chat on Facebook page and e-Twinning Platform, group discussions, email exchanges-readers and writers: magazine presentations of the stories, scripts for Puppet plays, flyers, dictionary-kinesthetic learners: stories, Arts & Crafts workshops products and carnivalThe scholars aged between 7-11 years are actively concerned within the task. As they're too young to attend the mobilities, they'll take part at action prepared at locally. Each partner will provoke Erasmus+ task equipment to reunite all of the pupils involved to participate inside the challenge, and to provide them the feeling of belonging to a group, strengthening their commitment to be energetic participants.The undertaking team will consist of minimal 10 teachers in each partner college, so a total wide variety of 50 teachers can be actively involved in the task development and could attend the worldwide conferences. it's far very critical to have in each group an English instructor to make sure that the communique in a foreign language will no longer represent a barrier, an ICT trainer because the challenge calls for the use of ICT for creating a few products, a Maths instructor as a way to compare the questionnaire and shape the statistical data, a Psychology trainer/ mental counselor to screen students’ behaviour.The new teaching principles, collaboration and communication will allow students to compare different educational systems. In addition, the training events and exchanges of students will prove to be an excellent opportunity to increase motivation for language learning by practical use in real life situations.
