Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2018 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The project brings together a team of six partners from England, France, Hungary, Italy, Spain and Turkey. All are represented by a kindergarten some of which are integrated into an elementary school or high school. In all our schools, we are working with students from different backgrounds and cultures, sometimes with psychological or physical disabilities. Some of them come from broken families or socio-economic difficulties and despite this, they need to learn together and from each other. Our homes are a reflection of ourselves. They show who we are and where we come from. Without this knowledge, without those roots, it is impossible to know others and to accept them. Knowing the space we share, can help us live better together in a respectful environment for everyone. Our project focuses on two areas: - Myself, my environment, my future, my past, my culture. - Know the others to live better together. We aim to involve all children 3 to 6 years (800 in all schools) in all project activities to make the learning process more interesting for them and give them the opportunity to learn by experience. In addition, one of the project's objectives is to encourage teachers to implement new working methods and devices. Three meetings a year are planned for the project organization in which participate all contact persons or their representative. The agenda of these meetings will systematically include a financial component. A work program as well as specifications for the most accurate and detailed possible intellectual products are made at the first project meeting. These tools will monitor the progress of the project. The responsibilities are defined and tasks are distributed from the writing of the project. We give a physical and emotional dimension to the project by transnational meetings in each partner school with a student, the highest point for the children, but also by the visit of a puppet that will allow young students to personify the project. A website, a board game and a book are the main intellectual products that will be available under a free license for the public to help teachers and educators working on the subject of home in all its aspects. The house is considered in a broad sense as a place to live. This understanding includes the neighborhood, city, country, Europe. The most important impact of this project is to discover how to better live together respecting our differences in these shared spaces. In our schools, we expect to continue to practice our learning methods enriching daily new experiences encountered by exchanges throughout the project. Later, we will ensure that these practices persist beyond three years of the project and help build the culture of our schools.
