We liked our comic cover so much that in fact we decided to use it as the base of the Greek participation in the wallpainting workshop in Spain.

Unity on Diversity

School preparation for the workshop about doing surveys on native traditions, rites and customs concerning the major spring religious holiday in Greece: Easter.

We meet to decide on the type of presentation and rituals we are going to present to partner teams to Bulgaria.

The Greek Comenius Corners

From the beginning of the project we created the Greek Comenius Corners in 2 parts of our school. The first one is in the teachers' office that always receive many visitors.

The second one is in the "Comenius Classroom". We used to have this place to gather there to discuss, organize and compose the various comenius workshops. Just after the beginning of the project our principle Mr. Ioannis Tzikas arranged to have a place with wifi internet connection where we could group to work and exhibit our products. Some times we used to bring the students to have lessons in that classroom when the subject was relevant to the products of our Comenius workshops. 

Environment

Environment is very essential in every aspect of life. All the living beings are depended upon the environment. We have to protect it by recycling, reusing and reducing. One of the greatest problems that the world is facing today is that of environmental pollution, increasing with every passing year and causing grave and irreparable damage to the earth. Environmental pollution consists of five basic types of pollution, namely, air, water, soil, noise and light. We did a project about this. Our workshop is the following:

My dream job

One of the most important concerns of the modern teenagers is to choose the right job for them. They consider mainly three criteria to find their preferable future job. The first one is the jobs they like to do, the second one is in which fields they are talented and the third one is which jobs can ensure a future professional success. According to the above three criteria each teen prefer a different job. So, we can't say that every job is suitable for every teen.  Thanks to our opinion that professional issues are very important for our future, we decided to write down our points of view about our dream job! 

You can see some of them in our projects below:

Modern teens and their interests

Teenagers are each country's future. So, the future of each state will be influenced by the personality of the next generation, which is developed based on their interests.
The interests of the teenagers can be seen, looking at the way they spend their free time. The Greek students took part in an investigation on that issue where numerous students from all particpant schools were participating . The investigation took place via 'pupils' area' in Twin Space:

1st question is about "How they spend their free time" 

Panel discussion on different values of the European youth

The students of the 11th High School of Larissa created a theme diary on common interests / values / experiences aiming the promotion of intercultural cooperation.

Τhey also prepared presentations in ppt format and posters about values and virtues such as cooperation, team spirit, etc. They presented their work at our school and hung the poster in Izmir, Turkey

Fundamental Principles of the European Union

The Students of the Greek team answered a questionnaire about what they know on issues regarding the E.U. The results showed that our students don't know enough things about E.U. So, we decided to make an exercise about E.U. to help them to know E.U. better.
