At the time of planning the project we thought of several goals we wanted to reach. First of all we planned such activities which were realized by the pupils upon their interest and not as a must which had to be done. This way they could choose such tasks which caused them feel comfortable during implementation. At the same time we wanted them to get familiar with as much information as they can without pushing them or making them feel to be compulsory. We also wanted to involve talented pupils and those who have learning difficulties as well. They learnt several information during playful activities which helped them develop their skills and competencies such as mother and foreign language, ICT and manual skills, their vocabulary extended and their social skills developed the most. On the other hand we wanted to get familiar with each others’ best practices so that we can widen our teaching methods to try out with our children. Those students who actively took part in the implementation of the different activities could strengthen in their studies and got better results in their marks.
Playful Education – Learning with games is a crossborder cooperation developed by the involved three countries to search for activities, games, be familiar with the best practices which can be motivating to those students who have a lack of interest in learning and might fall back because of this and because of their attitude towards learning which might not be appropriate. Upon the observation and experiences of the involved teachers the number of students with difficult backgrounds have been rising which has an effect on their school work has. It is our pupils aim to finish their compulsory courses with the best results and they can lay the path of their further studies. But it does not have to be a sweaty work, rather a pleasant way of acquiring information. It is our aim to create a pleasant atmosphere where the children like to be and like to learn through playful activities which helps their learning without realizing the actual learning process. By implementing the methology “Learning through Play”, the project encouraged experiential learning and the development of social skills through play.
