Sven (from Flensburg) travelling to Poland

Hello, I’m Sven Gebhardt. I was born in Witzenhausen in 1995. Witzenhausen is a small town in the middle of Germany, near the city of Kassel. Now I live in Flensburg in the north of Germany on the border to Denmark. Flensburg is a little town with a very bad winter service and no money. I like either “Örtte Pepparmynta” that is a mint tea that comes from Sweden or I drink mineral water.I like sports, for example bike riding on ice and snow, but also very, very fast in summer. Perhaps you like bike riding on ice and snow, too or in summer very fast. My teachers are normally nice, but I don’t understand grammar although the teacher explains it, but the teacher is innocent. I like trees and plants very much. I have ivy in my room in the house. I like holidays in Sweden very much. If it is possible I will live in Sweden later.

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.
