Project title: 'We Don’t Want To Be A Stereotype?' A range of topics will explore the concept and idea of stereotyping and citizenship. Topics will explore what we think we know about others and their country. • Who are they? • What do they do in their free time? • What do their families do in their community? • What games do they play? • What food do they eat? • What local stories do they know? The aim is to engage in intercultural and national learning. Whilst staff and pupils increase their awareness of European culture, the project also aims to develop personal creativity and to explore the concept of the stereotype through song, writing etc. The creative approach of the project will naturally enable a high level of participation and enjoyment from all pupils including those with Special Educational Needs, pupils with learning difficulties, early-school leavers, lower qualified persons. Children will write articles, upload photos and video clips, recipes, multilingual dictionary and a range of similar productive activities. Not only will this will lead to greater improvement of language skills and greater self-esteem for all pupils, the end products will be disseminated to all partner schools via website and mail for exhibition. We would also like to include features about our family life and our locality. This project would bring a flavour of the participating countries to the wider school community and break down cultural stereotypes and barriers. The communication language will be English. Partners will make effective use of emails, some social networks, videoconferencing etc. The main objectives are to: Identify stereotypes and how they are constructed Recognize the benefits and rewards of cultural diversity in our schools and communities Give children first hand learning experiences e.g. interviews Provide communities with the opportunity to work together Use technology as a communication and learning tool Provide opportunities for the inclusion of all pupils For pupils and adults to develop an understanding of what it means to be a European citizen.
