    About the project

    We think Storytelling and Tales could be wonderful resources, motivating and interesting strategies, and great tools to attend to diversity in our classrooms and solve problems between children. Stories are a continual source of learning, which allow us to work with the different intelligences humans develop.
    On the other hand, we want to know (or learn) different methodologies that help us to move towards a better process of teaching and learning. We need to work on different approaches to attend to diversity in our classrooms, which is increasing every day.
    And what about ICT? We need to know and work them, which provide us the development of students´ key competences and improve our daily work as teachers.

     

    OBJECTIVES.
    - To improve the Communicative approach.
    - To use new technologies to create motivating and meaningful activities, as well as improve the comprehensive development of students (video conferencing, teaching applications, etc).
    - To know and share different methodologies with the rest of partners in our classrooms, which benefit the attention to diversity.
    - To exchange interesting activities with the members of the Association.
    - To create digital stories from various methodologies (Cooperative learning, project learning, multiple intelligences,…)
    - To learn traditional stories from the partners´ countries.
    - To transform different types of texts (poetry changes into fairy tale or drama).
    - To know other countries and their cultures (languages, celebrations, methodologies, etc.).
