LIVABLE EARTH FOR HAPPY GENERATIONS

"One of the objectives of the EU Environmental Policy is to protect the environment and improve the quality of the environment.The EU 2020 Training Strategy's clearly expressed green growth and an environmentally friendly economy.In this respect,it is necessary to improve the awareness of the environment,to create natural habitats and to create new ideas by creating the awareness of using renewable energy sources such as water, wind and solar energy.According to the results of the environmental survey conducted with our school and project partners environmental damage,unconscious consumption of resources and low awareness are our common problems.The reason for giving our project the name of “Livable World for Happy Generations” is to give a prominent,meaningful and catchy message to the groups and the world at risk.Our project focuses on 4 basic issues:Environmental problems and destruction,renewable energy sources (solar,wind,water) and natural life and ecosystem,recycling and energy saving.Our project is the result of collaboration of six schools, including students between 11-15years of age,having similar needs,goals and problems located in Macedonia,Romania,Slovakia,Portugal,Italy,Turkey.The little touches made by 6 partner countries will show the effects to the whole world in the future as a butterfly effect.The objectives of our project areTo analyze and practice by taking necessary measures to make the place where we live better and livable,and to raise awareness about the energy sources to understand the current situation in the environmentTo improve the teaching methods of teachers through our project and to make the transition from theory to practice by enabling the students to make nature as a class without a classroom board,without a computer, their own observations and researchesTo analyze historical,scientific and geographic events using common languageTo participate in open-air activities that connect the theory to practice and become aware of the importance of the environment in lifeC1Meeting with partners,presentation of the project,environmental problems and o damage-TurkeyC2Environmental activities,solar energy–MacedoniaC3Environmental activities CLIL+Methodology Course Plans, water energy- PortugalC4Environmental activities,wind power–RomaniaC5Environmental activities natural life and ecosystem-SlovakiaC6Environmental activities recycling and energy saving-ItalyProject results and productsEnvironmental messages'll be written on the arrows of our sun mascot ""LARA""which'll travel 7976km send to our partner countriesCreating lesson plans and calendarTo prepare a model of eco-school,greenhouse,neighborhood designed by our students by group work,to provide energy from the sunTo enable our students to see the natural life cycle of living creatures with the incubator they designedTo create a natural habitat by placing the bird nests that students have designed in the trees in the school yardPreparing bird feeds by ""a single drop of hope for birds""activity to increase ecological awarenessMake fashion show from recycling materials to create awareness about renewable energy sourcesPlanting trees with our students to create a memorial forestPreparing ""Play for Nature"" choirs consisting of student groups in each country and expressing our love for nature with musicThe international character of our project is to respect and take responsibility for cultural heritage in different countries,to experience differences in culture,to respect different habits and behaviors,to learn to accept all differences while giving the students the opportunity to improve their language skillsThe methodology of the project will be student-based,and question-answer,workshop,questionnaire,brain storming,dramatization and presentation techniques'll be used.All participants and students'll be selected according to the determined criteria.The partners'll make certain arrangements and studies before mobility.each partner'll make specific preparations such as research,competition,interview,presentation and design.Follow-up activities will be carried out after each mobility.At the end of the mobilities,a report'll be prepared.The project'll be uploaded on the eTwinning for sustainablityLong term in partner schoolsTo make changes for clean environment and habitable natureTo ensure the develop of curricula and educational organizationsChanges to innovation in the mission,vision and strategic plan of institutions will take placeInnovation and entrepreneurship efforts'll be increasedOur schools'll have the opportunity to make international events LTT,the teachers'll meet with our partners and participate in international activities, and compare the methods of different education systems,participate in cultural activities and organize activities,and expand their learning at the local and national level.As 90 students and 78 teachers'll benefit from mobility of the Project, it affects thousands of people"
