The aim of this project is to create teaching resources that will enable the European educational community to work on the environment in the classroom in a cross-cutting and innovative way, within the framework of intercultural and digital exchanges.
The challenge is to create resources that can be easily mobilized, adapted to the multiplicity of European teaching contexts, to ensure that the project’s achievements are highly transferable beyond the partners. These teaching resources are co-created by teachers from the partner schools, with Par Le Monde guiding this collaborative work, ensuring their consolidation, coherence, formatting and posting on the project website.
Backed by ten years’ experience, recognized by the French Ministry of Education and accreditation from the International Organization of the Francophonie, Par Le Monde offers teachers the opportunity to develop these resources around a clear, motivating correspondence program for students, organized in three stages.
Each of these stages focuses on a different dimension of the students’ relationship with the environment:
1/DECOVER: their relationship with their local environment. The aim is for students to introduce their pen pals to their environment, notably through reports.
2/ QUESTIONING AND EXCHANGING: their relationship with their counterpart’s environment: students question each other and compare their environments through challenges and puzzles.
3/ IMAGINE: their relationship with the global environment they share with their pen pals: the aim is for students to imagine together a fairer, more sustainable future, weaving together the environment and the goals of sustainable development.
