Comenius: "Let's Travel!": Dani from Menorca travelling to Portugal

Dani from Menorca travelling to Portugal

My name is Dani and I’m fifteen years old. I’m studying 4th of ESO at IES Joan Ramis I Ramis secondary school, and I live in Maó.
I’ve got really dark brown curly hair and brown eyes. I’ve got not a very big nose and a fairly small mouth. I’m medium and my weight is within normal.
I’m a modest person and I always try to be honest and polite to the other people. I consider myself kind, sensible and quite shy. My friends have to be generous, friendly, faithful and hopeful. I usually go with my friends to the cinema at the weekends, but sometimes I visit my family. I suppose people think that I’m shy, reserved and kind. About my hobbies, I really enjoy playing paddle.I often take my mind off for a long time, so maybe I’m occasionally an absent-minded person. I’m also quite whinger, because doing homework and studying take me a lot of time, and then I can’t do things I’d like to do. In the future I definitely expect to be a scientist

This Blog

The project Blog contains everything related to the Comenius project “Let’s Travel!”: summary, objectives, activities, mobilities, project meetings, results, evaluation… It is a visual and dynamic online platform which illustrates and disseminates the project development through regular updating: writings, introductions, descriptions of places, pictures and videos on Tourism as a topic. All outcomes on the Blog are the results of students’ and teachers’ common team work at the seven partner schools.

The Garden in Portugal

Although uncompleted, coordinators from the seven partner schools decided to maintain the Garden in Portugal as one of the most emotive outcomes of our project. Seeds of plants from the local flora in each country were sent to the school in Portugal. Students of Tourism and Gardening from Ferreira do Zêzêre collected and let them germinate. They created a greenhouse, which was unfortunately seriously damaged by a destructive tornado at the beginning of 2011. A big part of the garden got lost.

Evaluation Questionnaires and Power Point Presentation

Three model questionnaires for mobilities were made, separately for guests (teachers and students) and hosts (students). Teachers and students who took part in mobility filled these questionnaires after each meeting and conclusions were compiled by Polish teachers to make our work better and more efficient. The most important conclusions from questionnaires were summed in the Power Point presentation which was presented during the last mobility in Spain, were all coordinators from partner schools were present.

7 Different Kinds of Tourism in 7 Different Countries

The seven partner schools of the Project “Let’s Travel!” did of Tourism a topic to investigate and analyse. They found out the characteristics, the means of transport, the baggage, the accommodation, the duration and the money required for seven different kinds of tourism and tourists in the seven partnership countries. They produced a considerable quantity of documents with information and pictures on activities related to cultural, historical, religious, natural, health, sport and educational tourism.
