"Project titled: ""Outdoor education-as a way to explore the world through experience"" will be carried out within 12 months by two schools: Non-public Primary School of the Foundation of the Queen Saint Jadwiga in Przyłęków (Poland) and Preilu Briva Skola (Latvia). The main aim of the Project is to enable the teachers from both the schools to share their experience and knowledge concerning the methodology of Montessori education, forest education,inspired by tutoring programme as well as methods of informal education. Our intention is to continue the established cooperation by further development of modern methods in accordance with the individual needs of the social education environment. By sharing good practices at our school, and developing joint solutions suitable for adaptation in both partner institutions, we want to develop teachers' expertise to help students acquire the skills desired in the world more effectively. Thanks to this international project its participants will be able to acquire better results than it will be in the case of a local one. Teachers from Montessori school are ready to implement into their everyday work all the good practices and new methods; to cooperate with organisations working in various branches. Continuing cooperation at the international level, completing the initiated changes in education at the level of partner schools, describing the developed models as good practices can significantly affect the dissemination of the model itself as well as inspiring change in general.Project’s assumption is also connected with professional development of teachers in order to improve the quality of teaching. This fact should bring positive and long-term results. What’s more important, Montessori school is located on so called affected area (mountain area) that is way it has reduced chances. Receiving the grant would help us to level playing field for teachers as well continue partnership in Europe due to visible similarities between both schools. Such a partnership based on key values for education will be a significant strengthening for the continuous development of both schools.The main aims of the Project:1)sharing knowledge and experience in the field of forest education based on proprietary teaching methods2) searching for good practices and new methods, finding a way to combine working methods to achieve complementarity in accordance with the individual needs of the social environment of education3)improving the skills and qualifications of employees in the use of forest education at all levels of education from kindergarten to grades 1-8 of primary school4)developing proprietary curricula in the fields of mathematics, nature, language and emotional development, including forestry and field education methods on a European scale5)improving teachers' skills in professional profiles, i.e. pre-school, early school and mathematics and natural sciences as well as in the field of foreign languages6)exchange of the knowledge about creating the optimal environment educational, testing existing solutions,which will help to better develop in children and young people not only the knowledge but will help build self-esteem, independence and also social skills, i.e. work in a group, creativity, openness to changes, empathy, mindfulness7)promotion of healthy diet and a healthy lifestyle as a friendly educational element8)continuation of contacts and permanent cooperation with the school in Latvia9)preparing the school as a place and team for national and international trainings in the field of outdoor education10)improvement of work qualities in the field of forest/outdoor educationResults that we want to obtain:1)understanding by teachers methods and tools used by partner organisation2)using these methods in daily work3)higher quality of teaching in Europe4)being ready to implement good practices and new educational methods into everyday work with students5)continuation and increase of international cooperation in the field of educationWe will achieve these goals thanks to the activities carried out during the project: the participation of 4 teachers from our school and 2 partner school during 2-week visits to partner organizations.
