January:
- In December all the partners monitored the pandemic situation. The results were not pleasing. Even though all schools worked at a distance, a lot of students and teachers from project workgroups became sick. Our monitoring group advised stopping the project's activities for 3 weeks because most of the schools will not able to perform project stage-2 activities.
- Teacher meeting will hold at the end of the month to find out current situations in the countries and to plan the next activities.
February
- We are planning to hold another student meeting online, following the successful first meeting which was held last December 2020. The main topic is an interesting story, tale, or legend about an old building which can be found nearby. During the meeting students will tell each other the stories, describe the building, presenting photos or videos. We are planning a short meeting, to cheer our students up and keep them involved in the project activities. We want to reduce feelings of separation and loneliness of the students, to keep them engaged in projects activities.
- We will involve students in the creation of buildings models on the Minecraft Education Edition platform or work on tinkercad for making buildings models as well. The tasks will take time for more than a month because students work at home.
