Continuation of the YoungLEAD project in Granada, Spain

At the beginning of November we we had another YoungLEAD project meeting in Granada, this time in Granada, Spain. The meeting was attended by teachers Jan Juříček and Pavel Namyslo, who represent our school in this project, and the partners from schools and educational organisations from Spain and Ireland. On the first day we focused on a summary of the project's outputs so far, which are soft skills games for pupils and a methodological guide for teachers. Here we also discussed their inclusion in the project's learning platform, which should be available at the beginning of next year. We have also started work on another project deliverable, which includes small learning units, called learning nuggets and through topics such as communication, problem solving or decision making, they will be used to help pupils practise their soft skills and further self-development. We have followed this up by planning further activities which will be webinars for teachers and the completion of the learning platform. During the day we also tried out some self-development games that can be used with students in the classroom and for Stross we presented on the topic of engaging foreign language learners in schools and the situation in the Czech Republic and we followed this with a short discussion. On the second day we visited the school COLEGIOS SALESIANOS GRANADA ((https://granada.salesianos.edu/)

New Educational Materials Now Available on the SPECTRUM Project Website

We are excited to announce a brand-new addition to the SPECTRUM Project (Supporting Elementary School Teachers in Recognizing and Understanding Minors with Special Educational Needs) Website under the Educational Materials section: GUIDELINES: How a Child with SEN Perceives the World. This resource features intuitive infographics designed to help educators, parents, and caregivers gain a deeper understanding of various Special Educational Needs (SEN). The infographics cover a wide range of disorders, disabilities, and impairments, including: Dyslexia Dysorthographia Dyscalculia ADHD Visual impairments Hearing impairments ...and more! Children with SEN often face unique challenges that can make traditional learning environments difficult. The project goal is to provide clear, insightful visuals that break down the complexities of these challenges. Understanding how children with SEN perceive the world is the first step to creating a more inclusive and supportive educational experience. Check out the SPECTRUM Project Website to explore these valuable guidelines and enhance your knowledge on how to better support children with SEN to create a more inclusive learning environment for all students.

Completion of the SOFARM project in Bovino, Italy

We are happy to announce the successful conclusion of the final meeting of the  SOFARM project, which took place in the picturesque town of Bovino in Italy! Over two rewarding days, our team reviewed significant progress on various aspects of the project, including training modules, microlearning videos and final evaluations. These discussions were essential in refining our approach and ensuring the impact of our work. A highlight of the meeting was our field trip to Il Monte di Narnia, a social farm located in Panni. This visit gave us a first-hand glimpse of how local agriculture and traditional food production practices are being used to promote social inclusion and sustainability in the beautiful Dauni Mountains. Participants engaged in meaningful discussions about the positive effects of social farming on communities and the environment. Our heartfelt thanks to all the partners who participated in this incredible journey. Your dedication and collaboration were invaluable. As we approach the end of the project , let us continue to promote the idea of the transformative power of social farming and its ability to create lasting change in our communities.
