The unifying theme of national myths and legends will appeal to children and teachers across all partner countries and is a template that could be usefully applied in other contexts. Objectives/Results/Impact Children will have a greater knowledge of myths and legends from their own and partner countries. Children will realise that although European countries are all diverse they are linked through a love of story, music and art. Students will realise that they all have talents such as music, art, story writing, imagination, dance and these talents will have contributed to and benefited this project. Children in non -English speaking countries will develop their English language skills. Children will have developed a sense of responsibility and gained much experience of team work. Children will become competent at various digital skills such as powerpoint, web design, blogging, stop go animation etc.. Children through Skype and penpals will have developed relationships with people from another country and develop social skills. All children including those with Special Educational needs ,disabilities and minority groups will have participated and contributed to this project. Teachers will have experience a variety of educational settings and observed teaching and learning in other European countries. Teachers will have had the opportunity to discuss different teaching methodologies and share best practice. Teachers and schools will have developed meaningful and lasting relationships with schools and teachers from other European countries. It is hoped that collaboration will continue long after this project finishes. Each school will have hosted a purposeful event and invited its school community to share this with them. Schools will have a website on which they can continue to share and communicate. Schools will have a variety of resources and outputs e.g music recordings, guidebook, book of European heroes and villains, photographs which can be used for future lessons on myths an legends. Schools will have been promoted in their local community. Description of Activities: This project contains eight substantial outputs made up of significant activities.
