"Social skills for good mood an better learning"
Social skills are pre-conditions for a good learning and living atmosphere. The partners want that students, teachers and parents be aware of their responsibility for the development of them. Collecting and comparing the strengths and weaknesses and successful projects to improve social skills at each partner school we try to build a network for mutual help und a market of ideas on that topic.

Students will develop their linguistic competence in English fulfilling this project and using CLIL. They will search and gather information on their home town, its origin, history, traditions, music and food. This investigation will promote group work and initiative among students. After this, students will compare their own results with the investigations on the other European cities made by the partner students, establishing cooperation using a foreign language. As a final activity, students will produce multimedia files containing photographs, videos, music and texts about their investigations. All this information will be gathered on a DVD which will be sent to other schools.
