Do you speak green?

Words create worlds-choose the green ones

Our priorities

Our priorities are: - promoting a comprehensive approach to language teaching and learning - developing key competences - fighting against climate change Through our project, we want to promote intercultural foreign language learning integrated into sustainability topics, because we feel the need to have a broader approach to language teaching and at the same time to make the pupils of our schools aware of the ecological issues. We want to create: - teaching material in the foreign language teaching and this way we contribute to fostering creative language teaching - an ecological blueprint for quick changes in pupil and school staff behaviour - long-term changes in the school policy - an impact on parents, the community and other stakeholders.
