The project called “The mathematical circle ” is a project of schools from Poland, Turkey, Italy and Hungary. The main aim of the project is to create a program based on intercultural experience. Each partner school has its own good practices that will be shared with the partners. During the project the exchange of experience and sharing partner countries’ customs and traditions (such as history lessons, craft, traditional dishes, traditional dances) will develop the tolerance towards other cultures and nationalities. The students will respect and appreciate the diversity and similarities of different European countries. They will be more opened to internationalization and globalization and they will improve their communication skills. The teachers will experience new teaching methodologies and improve teaching skills by learning from the partner schools. The partner schools will create an intercultural program that will be shared with other Internet users on the project website. The cooperation between the partners has started before the submission of the application. The partners contacted by phone and by email to develop the main ideas of the project. The partners have planned 8 mobilities during the project, project management, budget control, time management, the project's activities and results evaluation, handling project risks, the dissemination of the project results, the activities and results that will be maintained after the end of the EU funding. The working methods that will be used during the project include workshops, seminars, observations, discussions, brainstorming, visits, analysis of activities and analysis of documents. The impact of the project will be visible through the use of an innovative program in partner institutions, as well as in other schools. It will allow students to prepare activities that will bring positive results for the European society today. Long term benefits will be seen in the activities of the people who are students today and in the future will have a real impact on the European cooperation, partnership and integration.
An outline of our own math programme implemented after finishing the Erasmus + project. The final result of two-year work concerning the exchange of math experience with teachers is implementation of our own math programme which might be used during math lessons. The cooperation between partners concerned online lessons and different methods of introduction math skills. The programme contains topics which are included in the core curriculum. Nevertheless, teachers are not forced to stick to the schedule. The main goal is to adjust the programme to individual students needs and to use these math skills in practice. What is more, students may improve logical thinking while creating different types of math strategies. The mathematical programme which is compatible with the core curriculum for primary school, will be used during additional math classes. The programme contains general goals defined by detailed aims. Reaching these aims will be doable after the proper selection of educational teaching methods. The syllabus is planned to be accomplished once a week while additional math classes in fifth grade and in elders. GENERAL GOALS: 1. Facilitating development of creative thinking, broading minds and intesrests. Ability to help achieving the success or solving mathematical difficulties with using modern methods 2.Progression in computional efficiency among students. 3.Creation own strategies with using modern technology 4. Practising skills concerning math models making. 5. Creating new strategies and ways of thinking DETAILED AIMS: development of imagination and creativity(attachment number 3, lesson plan number 4, 7. Students in their own individual way may create their ideas, improving spatial intelligence. The will work in groups or they will work individually to make some 3D pictures . Student discover how to create a picture on the computer screen using pixels. Active participation in additional classes connected with the Erasmus + project,(pupils will cooperate and take part in project tasks at every level, they will design an illustration needed to a math dictionary – attachment number 1. Students will be solving math puzzles called „hard nuts”- attachment number 2 and pupils will be taking part in online lessons while doing the programme. ) Broadening sense of responsibility ,discipline and self-independance as well as persistence or reliability of work.( students will be working in groups, learning how to cooperate with others, they will be taking responsibility of their own tasks. Tle time limit will be set.) Improving math skills and individual predispositions to solving problematic tasks. (attachment number 3. Students will be proving their individual abilieties in coping with difficulties.. popularization of math among students, teaching them how to use their math knowledge. (Attachment number 3. Kids will be learning how to use math knowledge in a daily life. They will be solving tasks connected with sport,music,robotics while using TIK Broadening interests and math skills, deepening in inquisitiveness of matmematics. (attachment number 2 and 3; students will be creating a math dictionary. (attachment number 1);They will be working in groups and individually using TIK, They will be elaborating math puzzles and math games) Encouraging students to solving and creating math games( attamchemnt number 2; pupils will be working on their own math task at home or during additional classes; they will be trying to create math domminoes or board games) Unconventional and originative way of solving taks ( every student will be allowed to solve the task in his own way; every line of thought will be presenting at the forum) Povoking motivation to math learning; teaching them math detection in the world( attachment number 3,lesson plan number 3,5,9. Students will be discovering which math skills are useful in a daily life. The will be practising them e.g in calculating figure areas, restaurant bills or they will be showed how much in common robotics and math have. Developing their self-presentation skills( Children will be showing their work results at the forum) Taking additional actions, growing cooperation and communication with people( attachment number 3, lesson plan number 9,2,8. Because of group work, student will be also growing their awareness of argumentation,communication and they will be tought to fight their corner.Attachment number 1) Getting pleasure out of learning(attachment number 3 ,lesson plan number 8,10. Pupils will be working with other students from partnership countries. They will be realizing tasks outside which means that they will be breaking language barriers down. Eliminating shyness, working on self-esteem (attachment number 1, pupils will be working on illustration of math dictionary)
