Almost all of us have a treasure box. What do we have inside? At the beginning of the project children could bring their own treasure boxes to school and tell about their treasures. The teachers in each school will help them to discover that there are some things which are „treasures” for all of us.( Mind Map) I suppose that „the treasure” could be our health, family, imagination, abilities, friends etc. Later children could introduce their family- ( For example film, foto , presentation „ What Is The Best In My Family” or „The Daily Habit of My Family” ) “Christams and New Year Eve In My Family”
Partners could prepare some exercises or recipes for others to be healthy. Schools could create together story about treasures like a shell or a stone. The idea of activity depends on the mind map. During the project the schools could exchange small things remembering project and e- twinning friends like: bookmarks, postcards, letters by mail to each of children for their own treasure boxes.
