These are the teachers and the schools involved in the project so far.

The main aims of this project are:

- to encourage lifelong language learning in and out of school

- to familiarize with the sounds and the alphabet of other European languages

- to  develop their creativity

- to learn about other European countries in a fun way

The first activities are:

- see where the partner countries are situated on a map
- write postcards both in English and in Italian and send them to other European schools

There will also be other activities to be carried out later which we will share.

Here are some of the postcards Italian students prepared.
