D. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

D.1. SUMMARY

The Project is designed to attract people’s attention to our most precious possession, our HEALTH, of

which importance is understood when it is lost. It would be remarkable that people begin to care about it

before it is too late, when they have the chance to save their health. Inspired from this idea, we would

like to make everyone around us remember health’s value and acquire a positive change in lifestyles.

With this Project we will help our students/parents/staff adapt a healthy lifestyle, putting a special

emphasis on the importance of following a healthy diet and doing sports which are the two key factors in

leading a healthy life.

The first year of the project will be dedicated to the issue of healthy diet, presenting our traditional and

healthy food as an alternative choice for unhealthy ones through preparing commercials, making

plantations, etc. (O primeiro ano do projeto será dedicada à questão da alimentação saudável,

apresentando a nossa cozinha tradicional e saudável como uma alternativa para os não

saudáveis preparando campanhas publicitárias, fazendo plantações.)

The second year will be employed to the promotion of exercising and sports by the extra volleyball,

table-tennis, folk dances, football courses that are going to be opened, and competitions that will be held

in each school. (O segundo ano será empregado para a promoção do exercício e desportos como

do vôleibol, ténis de mesa, danças folclóricas, campeonatos de futebol que vão ser abertas a

toda acomunidade bem como todas as competições que serão realizadas em cada escola.)

On the other hand, our pupils/teachers will have a chance to see other countries’ lifestyles, their

traditional food and sports/games which will enhance the European dimension of learning. Apart from

being motivated for learning processes they will enjoy working collaborative with their peers all around

Europe regardless of nationalities. As countries get to know more about each other, the gap between

them will be minimized creating and spreading the idea of European and global citizenship. (Por outro

lado, os nossos alunos / professores terão a oportunidade de ver estilos de vida de outros

países (a comida tradicional, desportes / de jogos tradicionais), que irá reforçar a dimensão

europeia da aprendizagem. Além de ser motivados para a aprendizagem de processos, irão

desfrutar de um trabalho em colaboração com os seus pares em toda a Europa,

independentemente das nacionalidades. Como países, irão conhecer mais sobre os outros, a

distância entre eles será minimizada, para criar e difundir a idéia de cidadania Europeia e global)

We will organize a big festival in the end, tournaments between countries, prepare journal with two

editions, the Vegetable and Fruit Map of Europe, e-cookery book in our web-site designed for the

project.

This Project is needed because according to the World Health Organization over one

billion people are overweight globally, and that if current trends continue, that number will increase to 1.5

billion by 2015. Overweight and obesity are important risk factors for cardiovascular disease, which is the

number one cause of death and accounts for over 17 million deaths every year.

We want to change the foreseen future of our kids with the help of this Project as Dr Robert

Beaglehole, WHO Director of Chronic Diseases and Health Promotion says “The real tragedy is that

overweight and obesity, and their related chronic diseases, are largely preventable.” "Approximately 80%

of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes, and 40% of cancer could be avoided through healthy diet,

regular physical activity and avoidance of tobacco use."

Childhood years are the time when the persons are building up their lifestyle so it is crucial to act

during this period. Because habits are hard to change once they are gained and it is only meaningful to

act before wrong choices have become part of their lifestyles. Our project will help individuals to make

good choices in their diet, be aware of the importance of a healthy lifestyle and encourage them to have

an active life. We know that a healthy lifestyle in childhood has an utmost effect on lifelong health,

growth and intellectual development. If the body is healthy, it creates a happy community, happy

communities constitute happy nations and thus a happy Europe and World in the end.

It is important to cooperate with other European partner schools to make the project more efficient,

penetrant and attractive. All of these will increase the stability and effect of the promotion of healthy

living. It will start from one country and spread to Europe raising the quality of living within.

With the help of this project the pupils /staff will be prompted to discuss their everyday life and gain an

awareness of a healthy diet and lifestyle. Instead of junk-food, fizzy drinks they consume everyday

without a second thought, they will beeducated about their negative effects and proposed to eat

traditional and healthy food alternatively. Also schools will compose their own plantation where students

cultivate their own vegetables and they will be encouraged to eat vegetable and fruits during breaks.

With the sport competitions, opening extra sports courses, Olympics they will be motivated to adapt

themselves into a lifestyle with a regular physical activity. We believe that sports should be presented as

a pleasurable activity rather than a tedious must in order to adjust it into persons' lives for a life time.

In addition the Project will help students from different nationalities investigate each other’s culture

and lifestyles through study visits in which they are going to be involved. This will enhance the concept of

being citizens of Europe and ability to respect the diversity in communities. Integrating the students and

staff into Project activities and mobilities, they will have a contact with other participating countries which

they haven’t had at all so far, due to financial constraints or lack of opportunity. Forming a community

spirit they will enjoy the experience of working together regardless of religion, race or special needs.

We are proud of having a variety of schools committed to the Project allowing us to distinguish and

embrace the differences and similarities between cultures, institutions and individuals. A school from

French Polynesia, on an island in the middle of Pacific Ocean- a school for the special needs in Belgium

EB1/JI de Vila Nova da Baronia

gaining our students an understanding and sympathy of the handicapped and

acceptance them into the society– one school in England and one in Poland, the former is the host

country of the Olympics, the latter of the football Euro Cup in 2012, a great chance for our students and

teachers to link the topic of sports - a school in Spain which is running the Bilingual Programme, so not

only will benefit from the project at a European level but also will have a chance to introduce and

promote the usage of programme to other countries developing the quality of the education in them- a

school in Italy that will consider the main theme of the Expo 2015 "Feeding the Planet", for encouraging

a deep understanding of a healthy style of life- a school in Portugal specialist in growing vegetable- a

school in Greece to focus on healthy Mediterranean Diet- and finally the coordinator school in Turkey

famous for its rich cuisine.

Moreover our students will apply what they have learned in all curriculum areas to their daily lives. They

will improve the ability to make connections with lessons to every day life by employing the information

they have acquired in health education, biology, P.E., science or geography classes. As English is the

tool of communication during the Project, students will have the opportunity to practice their language

skills, thus realize the importance of speaking a foreign language and be highly motivated for the subject.

Also they will enlarge their vocabulary of other less common European languages like Polish, Turkish,

Greek, Dutch through the web site or study visits.

Teachers will be able to share, update and improve their teaching techniques with their colleagues all

around the continent enhancing the European dimension of education. This will result in raising the

standards of education in schools at a European level. Furthermore as a result of their cooperative work

friendships will be established which will form the very basis of other projects in the near future.

D.3. PROJECT OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGY

WE AIM TO :

-Develop an awareness of a healthy diet and healthy lifestyle.

EB1/JI de Vila Nova da Baronia

D.5. EUROPEAN ADDED VALUE

What is the added value of your project towards a more intensive European cooperation?

Through the project the children will understand that being healthy and eating a healthy balanced diet is

a key to successful learning and positive life outcomes. The pupils will use creative methods to share

their knowledge to the other European partners.

(Através do projeto as crianças vão entender que ser saudável e comer uma dieta saudável e

equilibrada é a chave para o sucesso da aprendizagem e para os resultados positivos de vida.

Os alunos usarão métodos criativos para compartilhar os seus conhecimentos para os outros

parceiros europeus)

They will have the opportunity to use a foreign language to communicate, hence introducing and

enhancing the awareness and application of European languages. Using the language in the host

country will also aide them in seeing the application of their learning and develop basic competency in a

particular foreign language. The experience of multi-national communication before visits,

accommodation in the host country and multi-national lessons/workshops during visits will encourage

future learning of different European languages.

Bring in through the curriculum the history, geography and culture of the countries involved in the project.

Applying their learning in these areas will also be enhanced through visits as they can employ their

developing language skills.

Celebrating and embracing the similarities and differences between cultures, through the varied

experiences, will foster a greater understanding of different habits and traditions, thus breaking through

the barriers of racism and prejudice.

TO ENSURE THE ACTIVE INVOLVEMENT OF ALL PARTNERS

10

Page 11: Resumo be healthy_feel_hapy

BE HEALTHY/ FEEL HAPYSEJA SAUDÁVEL / SINTA-SE FELIZ

EB1/JI de Vila Nova da Baronia

The work programme is being arranged at the Preparatory Visit giving them their tasks.

The dates and the responsibilities have been made clear.

Deadlines for each task will be set and clearly outlined in work meetings and our web site.

To control the process there will be monthly updates (agreed on it to be the last Tuesday of every

month).

F.2. COOPERATION AND COMMUNICATION

COOPERATION:

The fact that all the countries came together and worked on the project outline at the Preparatory Visit

shows how much they are enthusiastic about cooperating with each other to create a healthy Europe.

The students will be actively taking part with their peers from other countries either on study visits or

networks. In some activities such as in tournaments they will make up teams regardless of origins and

compete for a common purpose encouraging the group work. In order to design the e-cookery book, all

of them will be asked to send recipes to the project web site or their favorite vegetable/ fruit to make the

Vegetable and Fruit Map of Europe.

Apart from the cooperation of partners and students, parents will be working together with the school

community on some activities such as choosing the traditional recipes to be sent to partners, trying new

dishes from other cultures, and help students cook what they have learned on the big festival to be held

in Turkey.

We would like to extend the cooperation to other local institutions to ensure the impact and effect of the

project, so each school has already cooperated with a clinic or health centre for the informative seminars

to be given during the project to reinforce and spread the healthy way of living into the wider community.

COMMUNICATION:

-The participant students, teachers and also parents will communicate through Twinspace portal,

Comenius Project page on Facebook, group mail which have already being used by the staff in each

school. They can share ideas and experience by using different programs, such as MSN Live, Skype

(allowing for multiple conferences), etc. These are very good alternatives for learners in order to use and

improve their language and ICT skills keeping pace with the new technologies.

- Teachers/students will chat via Skype at set times and on set dates as determined by the coordinator,

in order to answer to queries and send urgent information. All the partners will share their works, reports

and their progress status on their school web-sites and also on the project web-site.

- Mobilities will also ensure the effective communication and relationship among partners.

- Every school will organise a project board called “Comenius Corner” which aims to show all the work

mainly to the school and local community. The board will be constantly updated with the current

activities.

11

Page 12: Resumo be healthy_feel_hapy

BE HEALTHY/ FEEL HAPYSEJA SAUDÁVEL / SINTA-SE FELIZ

EB1/JI de Vila Nova da Baronia

- Every school will present their international cooperation to the local media.

3. PARTICIPANTS' INVOLVEMENT

The fact that our topic is directly related to a positive change in pupils' lifestyles makes them inevitably

participate in all the activities.

The pupils in cooperation with their teachers are going to choose, plan, search, work out information,

collect, discuss, compose, develop a group-working spirit, adopt responsible choices and behaviors on

matters of diet, exercise, hygiene and taking care of their bodies. They will develop their ICT skills,

communicate with other students from abroad, achieving in this way an opening of their school towards

global community and finally realize the need to use a common language as a means of communication

with the rest of the world.

They will prepare posters, commercials, share ideas and experiences with their friends all around

Europe. They will be active in competitions, tournaments held both in other countries and their schools.

Active involvement in sports competitions and tournaments will be awarded with medals of attendance

encouraging the participations in order to ensure the maximum involvement in each school.

They will negotiate and find alternative healthy solutions for the wrong choices of eating habits. Cultivate

their own vegetable and fruit in the school gardens.

Also they will fill evaluation questionnaires at the end of the project to evaluate the impact of the project.

All participating staff will be involved in the project meetings in order to plan and evaluate the project’s

activities. Staff will coordinate and facilitate students’ participation in all phases of the project. They will

also adapt the activities to the real school context.

4. INTEGRATION INTO ON GOING ACTIVITIES

The objectives and the contents of the project are in accordance with all our national curriculums, so we

will integrate it into our learning activities.

Activities:

INTERDISCIPLINAR: Every Tuesday we will celebrate “The fruit day”. Every pupil will have to bring fruit

for his/her lunch.

HEALTHY WEEK, once a year all the schools will celebrate the “Healthy Week” with lots of different

activities to develop all together. This activity also includes the participation of all the School Community

with activities such as reading books, doctors and dentists seminars for parents and children, cooking

recipes, art contests, sports competitions, visits and short trips.

SCIENCE: posters and leaflets promoting healthy living, gardening, learning local vegetable and fruits.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION: we will learn different games and sports from the other partners, thus

understanding the importance of doing sport.

12

Page 13: Resumo be healthy_feel_hapy

BE HEALTHY/ FEEL HAPYSEJA SAUDÁVEL / SINTA-SE FELIZ

EB1/JI de Vila Nova da Baronia

Our schools are taking advantage of the 2012 Olympic Games so our children will have

a better understanding of the training and the commitment to participate in Olympics and Paralympics

Games.

We will celebrate Mini Olympics between all the Partners when we visit other Partners schools.

In the end of the project we are going to give Prizes and medals to all the pupils participating at the

Sports Challenges between all the classrooms.

MUSIC: we will learn and create songs and dances related to healthy habits in the "European Show" in

the partner school.

ART: drawing, painting, production of posters.

ICT: creating an e-cookery book in English during the ICT lessons and exchanging by e-mail traditional

recipes and information with our partners, searching for materials in Internet, uploading photos to the

project web site in order to improve children’s abilities.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE: We will encourage our students to talk about healthy habits in this language,

apart from getting in touch with all the rest of the languages from the countries involved in the Project, so

children will gain a better Intercultural understanding.

We will try to implement the English language curriculum with songs, chants which contain health

subjects, formulate healthy tips in English, working in pairs and group to develop communicative skills.

GEOGRAPHY: fair trade, location of the countries/cities, countries' climate that reflects the sort of food.

5. EVALUATIONHow will you evaluate, during and after the partnership, whether the aims of the partnership have been met and the expected impact has been achieved?

All institutions agreed in the use of differents means and different times of evaluation (Initial, Continous

and Final) and that this evaluation must be done focusing on all the activities, experiences and sectors

from the school community participating in the Project.

We will use a wide range of instruments to evaluate the project such as surveys, reports,

questionnaires, diaries, meetings, level of participation and discussion.

In order to evaluate our Project we have planned the evaluation as follows:

- A survey about lifestyles is going to be applied using some questionnaires which are going to be filled

by everyone participating in the project. The same questionaire will be applied at the very beginning to

know the existing habits and at the end of the Project. Thus, the results will show the impact of the

Project and will help us to find out whether or not their habits and attitude towards health issues have

been changed by their participation in the Project.

- Data collected from the school cafeteria will show us whether a decrease in consuming packed or pre-

processed foods has been reached.

13

Page 14: Resumo be healthy_feel_hapy

BE HEALTHY/ FEEL HAPYSEJA SAUDÁVEL / SINTA-SE FELIZ

EB1/JI de Vila Nova da Baronia

- The increase in the number of pupils attending table tennis, football, voleyball, folk

music, chess courses which are going to be opened to encourage doing sports/exercises will also serve

as a concrete proof of evaluation.

- Questionnaires about the level of satisfaction of the community will help us to know the right impact of

the project.

- Each school is going to have self-evaluation throughout the project, having regular meetings ( first

Monday every month), reporting and discussing the progress of the activities, sharing the experiences

acquired by all the participants and so having the necessary feed-back to make necessary changes.

- All the mobilities will include teachers’ evaluation to improve the project. We will evaluate every type of

intervention through different instruments, participation on our web, activities, experiences, video

conferencing.

- The pupils are going to evaluate the programme expressing their ideas through discussions. They also

keep diaries during all the progress of the programme. A term report with the pupils' feedback will offer

pupils the opportunity to evaluate the project.

- In the project web site, there will be "suggestion" and "complain" boxes to express ideas about the

project.

- The local community involvement in the project is going to be evaluated through its support and

participation in the school events.

F.6. DISSEMINATION AND THE USE OF RESULTSHow will you disseminate and use the results, experiences and, where applicable, products of the partnership?- in the participating organisations?- in the local communities?- in the wider lifelong learning community?

IN THE PARTICIPATING ORGANIZATIONS :

From the start of the project the collective work will be displayed on the “Comenius Corner” boards in

each school with pictures, journals, letters, etc. allowing both the staff and outsiders be aware of the

work. Project web site will be updated monthly and all visitors will be able to see the calendar and the

activities of the Project.

Each school will inform the students and their parents about the project and related activities during the

ceremonies in the start of new education year.

In the meetings, the staff will be informed and updated about the activities regularly.

IN THE LOCAL COMMUNITIES:

Since we will include students into mobilities, they will share their experiences with their friends and the

neighbourhood which will affect the local community very much.

In some activities parents will be working with us having being told about the whole

process.

For the local media and press, mobilities will serve as a great attraction for them, so they will be informed

about the activities and outcomes of the Project.

At the end of the project the last visit will be to the coordinator school and we are planning to celebrate

and disseminate our work with a big festival with the participations of everyone involved in the project as

well as the local community, nearby schools and authorities. It will be like a fair area with parents

cooking and selling traditional food on stands, students playing the national games of each other,

organization of sports tournaments,etc.

Also the cooperation work with the clinics, health centres’ in the neighbourhood will be an effective tool

for dissemination of the promotion of healthy diet and exercising. Those institutions are going to display

and deliver our booklets/posters to the local community.

IN THE LIFELONG COMMUNITY:

During regular teacher meetings in the area, the teachers who wish to run a Comenius project for their

schools will be guided and by sharing our experiences with them they can be enlightened upon the

matter.

They will be informed about the process of a project application, finding partners, and running the project

for two years.
