Partner project Erasmus+ with title »I feel wood – for good« is based on long-time experience in teaching in education and cooperation among 6 schools. We wish to include as many as possible of our students and our staff (also local community), so they will experience project activities and use the material being developed during project activities. More actively we will involve around 80 students and 40 teachers. Partners in the project »I feel wood – for good« are: -I. C. Francesco Petrarca (Catania, Sicily, Italy), -Primary School Žiri (Osnovna šola Žiri, Žiri, Slovenia), - ES Jaime Ferrán, C/ Matalpino, nº 22, Collado Villalba, 28400 Madrid SPAIN - Profesionalna gimnazia po lozarstvo i vinarstvo 'Alexandar Stambolilski' (Pleven, Bulgaria). - Hochwaldgymnasium,Wadern,Germany -Zespol Szkol nr 1 Poland We think often students and teachers are maybe afraid to express themselves and seek for innovative solutions to the problems.With implementation of the project »I feel wood – for good« we wish to rationate this project in all areas of education; integrate creativity into lessons, encourage to give students and teachers open options in expressing their creativity in learning process with the help of teaching and learning with senses; gather their talents, creativity, resources, effort to bring coherence, relevance and connections among different areas to maximum.
