4. To document a wider view of European culture while improving foreign language
5. To promote physical activity as a means to learn about historical facts

WORK PROCESS
Together we can learn to read historical maps and documents, classify the various types of routes, discover their peculiarities and compare their functions in the past to nowadays. As a result of this study, our field work can take us to museums; we can speak to historians, archaeologists, local people etc. The information gained from these experts can be included in lesson plans.
Moreover, we can even bring history to life preparing drama performances in real settings to show relevant historical events or to recreate scenes that might have happened to normal people.
Some historical paths will be worked online and some of them during mobilities to the partner countries.
EXPECTED RESULTS
Twinspace and the project website will be used to compile and display the evolution of our collaborative activities. A direct link to our website will be established in our school websites’ main page. By means of Twinspace, our project would be known at an European level, and teachers involved will also add posts in eTwinning.
The performances in the different countries will be recorded and eventually edited as a documentary at the end of the project, which will become one of the expected final products.
