Kind Minds Kind Mouths

Project details: "Kind Minds, Kind Mouths" is based on the relation established between the partner schools-students and teachers and on the conclusion that a Comenius project can make a great contribution to solve some common problems such as: intolerance and impoliteness in society and inefficient way of communication. We aim at promoting of good communication, social qualities, understanding, respect and tolerance, increasing our pupil's attitudes towards developing their interpersonal skills. The project will give the students a chance to see European peers and to have first hand contact with them. So both teachers and the students can learn about good examples in European countries and share their ideas. We can create an area of exchange of ideas between teacher staff and students. By implementing this project, we will analyze of reasons of pupil's bad manners, lack of good communication, the problems preventing them having qualified communication with others, outside-inside effects on them and we will try to find solutions for them by preparing activities which increase student's consciousness, interest and creativity through mails, brochures, photos, posters, student's works, web sites, project meetings and activities which are held by all partners. By this partnership, we aim at establishing a strong link to others in Europe to enlarge European dimension of our schools and of our local communities. Besides we hope our project will help to promote at all the partner schools to develop skills in foreign languages, to use the ITC, to integrate new methods, to use the results and final products of the project in everyday activities in schools, the project curriculum and project methodology. We are sure that we will make a difference for the students and teachers in it.
