Background

With the pandemic period and the start of distance education, student activities shifted to distance education. By working with SEN students not only individually but also in the classroom, education had become much more difficult not only for older children but especially for primary school children and SEN students. It was the aim this project to enable teachers (working with SEN students with SEN students in the classroom and working teachers in general) to diversify their subject, making it attractive and interesting. It is the teachers who are involved in this project and after the project they have tools and knowledge to create interactive lessons tailored to the students, their ability, the current health problems. The working teacher knows the current situation best, therefore, by being able to modify the tasks and activities, the educational process will be more interesting and attractive for the student. That is what our project adressed.
