    The meeting for project management and implementation from Fanny Hensel Schrule, Leipzig in Germany (2 participants from the Netherlands, 2 from Lithuania, 2 from Romania, 2 from Sweden, 1 from Greece, 4 from Italy) aimed at establishing the activities of learning for 2019-2020, as follows: Lithuania 6-12th October 2019, Greece 5-10th April 2020, Germany 24-30th May 2020.  There were established the activities to be carried out until the learning activity in the Netherlands May 19-25th, 2019. We also trained the transnational activity in Ireland, 6-10th June 2019. During the meeting we visited the school and we met / talked with the  school’s teachers, we had a meeting with the parents and the school's principal to wish us ‘welcome’, another one  on the occasion of the mini-concert organized in the showroom of the school. Project coordinators from partner countries have established clear meetings in the virtual space between children - skype and kahoot platform. There were established activities where students would answer the questions: Why is the energy good ?, How can we save energy ?, How can  we  get  the energy?, How bad has the plastic made to our planet ?, How valuable is water for people ?, What is pure water ?, How can we save water ?. We have established that these questions will find their answer in the following activities: The Energy Game - the model proposed by the Greek team, Day / Consumer Behaviour - a presentation by students for the meeting in the Netherlands that includes pictures, keywords, a short essay and a play on kahoot that children play there when they are together; Day without electricity - students write a written essay  where they would share the lived experience, Day / Time of the Earth - a brief presentation made by students with pictures and ideas related to this aspect, lessons of awareness of the value of energy, water - concrete activities of use water for personal needs (eg how much water is consumed for  washing a pair of trousers) and what methods / rules we can apply to save it, the damage  produced by the pollution of the planet. For communication (May-June 2019) it was proposed that teachers organize activities to help students realize the importance of respect in communication - the implementation of the game "Every week a friend!" (The pupils will pick  their colleague's name  and then will have a specific behaviour in relation with him or her), activities to modify the message, the title of a text, aiming at the integration of all children in communication, students in each country to make an essay to answer the question: Why my mother tongue can be an international one we will also realize a  mutual  letter  which will start from a certain country with an established subject and it will stop in every partner country where the students will write their answer to the proposed topic for debate, then send it to the next partner until they return from where it left. The products we will create are: an international kahoot game on the topic of Pollution, Water, Electricity, Saving Resources, Healthy Food, etc. (minimum 15 questions, maximum 20 questions, questions must be formulated in such a way that students learn something concrete) that all children from partner schools will play on April 11 th, 2019 (30 minutes for each age category and 15 minutes pause, there will be two games with varying degrees of difficulty for the age group 6 -7/8 years and 9-10 / 11 years), an e-book book, a movie based on an activity realized by students, Skype meetings where students discuss and find solutions to solve certain problems, games - describe an animal / plant / tool to be identified by others. Students' answers will be sent to the game "Guess what tool it is!" The Mobillity Tool platform has been viewed again and decisions have been made on the order of learning activities, and how to load the pictures on the project site , other possibilities it offers - loading movies, PPTs, WORD or EXCEL documents and updating the partner's obligation to invite parents to view their activitie. Outside the program, we visited the Monument to the Battle of the Nations, we  had a dinner together, we visited the city centre of Leipzig.
