Patricia from Menorca travelling to Portugal

My name is Patricia and I’m studying 4th ESO at Joan Ramis High school, in Mahón. I’m medium-height and I have green eyes. I used to wear glasses, but now I prefer wearing contact lenses. I’ve got long brown curly hair, although I sometimes wear a ponytail. In summer my skin is quite tanned but in winter I’m rather pale.

I think I’m a sociable and confident person, however, I’m really stubborn and I’m sometimes a bit moody. I love dancing, so I rarely have free time because I’m always studying or taking dance lessons. In addition, I even give dance lessons to little girls. I’ve got a younger sister. She’s eleven years old and she’s in the last year in primary school. Next year she’s coming to my high school.

I love travelling and I’m happy because I’ve just been chosen to travel to Portugal with the Comenius project with other four students. I’m really looking forward to that trip because I love science and we’ll be doing a biology project for a week with students from different countries, and that will be a good chance to practice and improve my English.

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.
