The European community is characterized by different traditions, cultures and regional identities: promoting enhanced awareness of different cultures , traditions of the people living in the Europe, is our priority.
Our strategy...."One day a little blue alien (a puppet) arrive to school. He comes from a galaxy far, far away and he only speak “Nice To Meet You!” , for this the children call him Ni.To.Me.Yo. The children want to be his friends, they learn about their country and culture through food and songs, celebrations and tales…"
Using innovative and creative pedagogical practices, this project encourage the children to develop their own cultural identity, to explore experiences that might not be part of their everyday lives and the information about the European partners countries ( their traditional foods, dishes, songs, dances and legends connected with festivals, holidays and other important days) , it promotes curiosity, recognition, understanding the importance of cultural diversity and individual uniqueness, it teaches that although people look different, they are all equal. When the children will prepare some European and international rice or flour recipes , they will discover that everybody eats rice and flour, just in different ways. So really, everyone is the same. The children will begin to see that all people like to sing and dance, but every group has its own special ways of doing it. The Blog of project, the CD, the hand-made books, manuals... all products will promote the didactic action and the intercultural dialogue .
"NiToMeYo" is a great opportunity for pupils, parents and teachers to enrich their experience and to compare knowledge with peers from other countries, to open out to a multicultural dimension, to EUROPEAN DIMENSION.
