    27.01.2021. On the first day after a welcoming word from the host all participants were invited to take a virtual tour around the hosting school and school area. After that following activities were organized:
    1)    Discussion of the last version of the projects’ WEB-page. This was important in order to improve its functionality and content. During the discussion some proposals were made such as adding a link to eTwinning page where the project results will also be reflected;
    2)    Discussion of project articles. Project articles were part of the main objectives since all of them will be compiled in one digital handbook. It will be possible for teachers all around the Europe to read about good practices and new methods. 


    28.01.2021. The second day of the virtual meeting was concentrated on working with students and preparing the final report. 
    1)    During our previous learning and training sessions we got acquainted with the method called Pecha Kucha. Colleagues from the Netherlands prepared tasks for students to test this method online. Students were divided into international groups in different Teams rooms where they presented their Pecha Kucha about the current situation with COVID-19 in their schools and other topics they felt to be important for youngsters. The discussion was fruitful and as we could see, it was appropriate to use the method online as well. 
    2)    Preparing the final report.  Our international team got acquainted with the form of final report, its structure and data needed to be included to the report. The first steps for the final report were discussed and set the deadlines. 

    29.01.2021. The third day of the virtual meeting was concentrated on summing up the project, discussing the final report issues and discussion of possibilities for further cooperation.   
    1)    Summing up the project included the method of “free microphone” where all participants talked about the experience they got during the project in order to see the growth of awareness about future competencies and readiness to implement them into classes on daily bases. This demonstrates sustainability of the project and change in the quality of everyday lessons. 
    2)    While discussing possibilities for further cooperation the question about Erasmus accreditation was touched as well. Norway told about their positive experience in passing the accreditation. New project ideas were mentioned however everybody agreed that the first step should be getting the Erasmus accreditation for schools after which more specific ideas can be discussed.
