Multimedia Phrasebook


To create a Multimedia Phrasebook in English and in each of the Partners languages is one of Comenius Project Products that we have to deal with.

Each School has to create 7 sentences of each of the proposed topics in the native language and in English. In order to organize this product, you are kindly requested to use the following chart under these headings:
  1. Product
  2. Phrase in your Mother Tongue
  3. Recording 
  4. Illustration
  5. Phrase in English
Multimedia Phrasebook Chart

To be able to upload the recording of the phrase (both in your language and in English) we thought it would be a nice idea to record the students saying these phrases with a video camera or just audio. This makes it more interactive, and a great activity for the students to take part in. The topics are the following:

This Blog


The project Blog  will contain everything related to the Comenius project “Democratic Values and Linguistic Diversity"

 It is a visual and dynamic online platform which illustrates and disseminates the project development through regular updating: writings, introductions, descriptions of places, pictures and videos on Democratic Values and Linguistic Diversity.  All outcomes on the Blog are the results of students’ and teachers’ common team work at the six partner schools: Bulgaria, Italy, Poland, Romania, Spain and Turkey.

We are very glad to have this tool to participate , regularly, as a NEWSPAPER.

Every country will participate in giving information about the research being done by each School at different times of the project, all related to the Workprogramme, results and outcomes of the Project.

Different topics from different points of view will be shared, we are all invited to participate in this blog.

How do we develop democratic values in our school and local community?

Is our curriculum dealing with a "Civic Society"?
