Limited But Open-Minded

"Limited But Open-Minded"

18 months of collaborative work are over.

It was a project that proved to be an opportunity for teachers and students.

Teachers developed collaborative and linguistic skills, as well as pedagogical and digital skills.

For the students, it contributed to the construction of young people as active citizens by promoting activities to raise awareness of the importance of following a healthy and balanced diet, exercising and relaxing, protecting the environment, creating ideal conditions for the development of plants and animals. Transversely, it also contributed to the development of communication and linguistic skills.

A successful team!
