The last mobility week of our project came again in the month May. This time it was May 2023. The mobility week with the Romania school from Pietroasa made the picture of our partnership complete. Now the project was heading towards its end and we all, the students and teachers of all partner schools, were more experienced with organizing the travel, using the IT tools and apps to present our work, dealing with various problems, adopting to unusual situations, listening to the partners professional advice, learning new ways of approaching problems. The precious experiences that we all gained as a side effect of working on the project which was focused on the most precious liquid of our lives WATER.

In May 2022 students of our school went for the first mobility abroad. The country of the venue was Italy. Unfortunately our Romania partners could not take part because the Covid precautions and the strict rules which were valid at that time in Italy did not let anyone without vaccination to enter any school headquarters. So we connected with our Romania partners in several online meetings within the mobility week and when the mobility was over we had an extra video meeting to share the experiences from the mobility events with our Romania partners.

This assignment  was a follow up  to the previous project event. Pupils created various crosswords and word puzzles using the vocabulary associated with extreme weather phenomena connected with water. They also took a report of this activity.
After students, Biology and Geography teachers of the Czech school discussed the topic of extreme weather phenomena, the students made puzzles and crosswords. It appeared not so easy so it took some time and part of this task students prepared as homework and later they used the home-made materials. The  desired crossword was made within the English lessons. The secret word is the name of the 2002 hundred-water-flood affected area.  It consists of two words and it  is a name of a region. Since the floods in 2002 were really enormous and came in several waves the affected area was much bigger than that, but then almost all parts of the country could be named. But the secret word names the area where it all started and it was one of the most damaged by the flood of 2002.

# data[].attributes.body
The Czech school students first discussed the topic of unwanted power of water and the properties of water as an element with their Geography & Biology teacher. They talked about the present time situation with evident influence on the climate change on Europe and the whole world, mentioned sudden appearance of heavy torrential downpours in unusual areas causing instant floods and heat waves with consequent droughts and impact on local agriculture. Then the students watched the documentaries on the biggest floods with hundred-year waters from August 2002 which hit all The Czech Republic.

P47 Water Power - excursion to a small Water Power Plant on the Lužnice River

# data[].attributes.body
After the first task of the WATER POWER chapter the pupils followed up with an excursion to the Soukeník Hydroelectric Power Plant in Planá nad Lužnicí. This excursion took place on 18 November 2022 and the weather was not very good. It was a raining chilly day, but with a project about water, a little water from above must be expected. Everyone was prepared for bad weather, so after a bus ride and a march along the Lužnice River from Sezimovo Ústí to Plana (upstream), pupils arrived at the power plant in a good mood. Here they were greeted by the owner of the small hydroelectric power plant and led to the island on which the Soukeník hydroelectric power plant is located via a simple footbridge. And then it went one by one - the embankment with sluice gates, the comb, the inlet under the power plant building, where four Kaplan turbines were hidden under the water surface. Next the the pupils could enter the power plant building and the engine room, where one could see the turbines turning the power generators via pulleys, as well as the necessary electronics needed to control all four turbine generators. After an exhaustive explanation and answering all questions, all pupils as well as the teachers were given hot tea to warm them up and everyone roasted sausages on the prepared fire - a nice warm lunch in this miserable weather. And as it was time to head back to the bus the pupils said their goodbyes and set off on their return journey. This excursion was a success despite the bad weather. The pupils then worked the event into a photo report.

Due to the difficulties caused by the COVID restrictions the project events calendar was modified and adjusted to all partners busy schedules. The prolonged project calendar enabled all partners to carry out some events at the most convenient time. Therefore the period of time for the Water Power event began in spring 2022 and ended in autumn 2022.
Students of 8th grade of the Czech school talked about the power of water in their physics lessons, under the guidance of their teacher Pavla Bednářová, looked together at water as a source of energy. The energy gained from the power of water so called "green energy" is nowadys really highly valued because the source is renewable.They learned about the water turbines and water power plants and made an enrollment into their exercise books. After learning about the way how to use the water power they also discussed the unwanted destructive power of water.
The use of water always was so important for humans and it is associated with great achievements of human efforts. From the simple mill wheel to the sophisticated turbines of large hydroelectric power plants. Pupils looked at how the power of water is converted into electricity in hydroelectric power stations. They learned about the different types of hydroelectric power plants and their essential components - water turbines of different types. They made a notebook entry under the guidance of the teacher, which was also accompanied by simple diagrammatic pictures of the parts of power plants and different types of water turbines. All this was done in October 2022 as the first assignment of the WATER POWER chapter.

Older students of the Czech school made informative posters about our successful sportsman or sportswoman. After a talk on water-sports handicapped Paralympic sportsman and sportswoman. The posters were put on display at the Eraboard and uploaded to our Twinspace. There was a chat show with the head of "ČESKÉ PARAPLAVÁNÍ" ( an organization taking care of disabled swimmers) planned  for October. Due to COVID it had to be postponed several times and finally it took place on 11th January when Mrs. Miena Dušková one of the founding members came instead. The chat show was a huge success and attracted attention of our students and also our teachers. We could hear many true life-stories of particular handicapped swimmers. Probably the most interesting was story of our successfull Paralympic swimmer Mgr. Martin Kovář (four gold medals form Paralympic Games- three of them from Athens 2004). The unfortunate accident which put him down to the wheelchair has started this amazing organization which has helped hundreds of disabled people to learn how to swim and through swimming has brought them back to normal life.

Younger students of the Czech school with their form teachers discussed all water related sports and focused on Olympic & Paralympic water sports. The older students did it within their PE lessons. Younger students also learned English names for all water sports in their English lessons and draw illustrating pictures for each sport to be used as flashcards.  In the Arts & Crafts lessons the older students designed symbols/pictograms for Olympic water sports  and  the younger classes designed diplomas for water sports. The whole school voted for the best ten diploma designs. Then in December all partner countries uploaded their winning designs (the two best) to the Twinspace and on 20th and 21st December students of all the participating countries voted for the best design.
The winning diploma design was one of the Italian designs - congratulations.

All students and teachers of the Czech school joined the World Oceans Day with the motto "Wear Blue - Tell Two" in one-day project. Everybody came to school dressed in blue and joined a game composed as a  treasure hunt set in a narrative focused on water and its protection. All students had to accomplish a variety of  problem solving and team building activities set into the story narrative. One of the events of this day was an escape game prepared by the children of our Erateam which was then shared on Twinspace and was made available for all partner schools. This event was the last event of the school year and so within the month of May and June we also opened an exhibition in the Local Public Library where the project outcomes produced during different project events were put on display and were introduced to general public as a report of our first project year. All students visited the exhibition with their form teachers. Most of the students parents and other family members visited the exhibition too.

Due to the impact of the COVID 19 restrictions on the project schedule and the time management focused on the students priority needs this project event was mainly processed by the Czech students in full range and later on discussed with the partners.
Students processed their findings from School audit of water management part 1 into a chart. For this purpose they used the worksheets provided by Water House Hulice a nonprofit organization focused on water preserving schemes and environmental friendly education. In their maths lessons they calculated possible savings of water consumption in case some water aerators would be fitted to the school taps. They discussed their findings with their form teacher and suggested some correctional measures for saving water. The findings and calculated outcomes were filled in worksheets with charts which were made later into little booklets. The worksheets were presented on the school noticeboards  and the Eraboard. It was also exhibited at the First Year of the Project Exhibition in our Local Public Library. This event was also presented to the partner schools within the mobility week in the Czech Republic in autumn 2021.

Since carrying out the project events of spring 2021 was extremely complicated due to long lasting COVID 19 restrictions and students had already spent enormous amount of their normal school duties glued to their computers in an online distance studying the spring time was extremely hectic time for all schools, students and teachers. Since all our activities of this part of the project were all focused on water management from different points of view after a discussion with our partner schools and all the National Agencies we carried out the project events in modified versions. All partner countries discussed the water management of their schools either within the World Water Day in March or within the World Oceans Day in June. The Greek students of the 3rd Primary School created a padlet for this subject. The students of school wrote texts in Greek and English language and used practices for saving water in the school garden The Czech school students of fourth grade did the survey of the school water management. In the survey they found out the daily water consumption at school during normal operation which included toilet flushing, dripping taps, watering flowers, washing hands, drinking regimen, etc. It was the first part of the school audit of water management which was followed by second part in the next project event. The findings were filled in worksheets provided by Water House Hulice a nonprofit organization focused on water preserving schemes and environment friendly education. The worksheets which were made later into little booklets. The worksheets were presented on the school noticeboards  and the Eraboard. This event was also presented to the partner schools within the mobility week in the Czech Republic in autumn 2021.

The mobility in The Czech Republic was the first mobility in our project. it took place in October 2021. It was the first time the Covid precautions alowed people to travel. Unfortunately at the time when we were preparing the mobility nothing was really certain and our partner schools informed us that the parents of their students would not let their children travel. So we were forced to rewrite the program of the mobility week and change it into teachers training workshop.

# data[].attributes.body
The theme of our World Water Day was "Trip of a plastic bag..." which should make students and teachers aware of the plastic pollution of the World Oceans.
In one-day project students of our school expressed their support of the globally celebrated World Water Day. This event was carried on via the app Teams due to the lock-down rules forced by the COVID 19 situation in our country. The students with their form teachers went through a pre-prepared morning program focused on the plastic pollution of water with a follow-up discussion. Afterwards the students of 8th grades wrote an English essay "The trip of a plastic bag from our country to the sea and back". All older children of our school draw a picture of a sea animal at their own choice and suplemented the picture with a short text giving some facts connected with plastic pollution of water. The younger students draw two pictures one represented The Clean Sea and the other The Polluted Sea. The outcomes of this event were put on display at the exhibition of our project at the Local Public Library later on. The outcomes were also shared on the schools web pages, our Twinspace and displayed on our school Eraboard.

In the PADLET above the pupils of our school reported on the activities they did within the one-day project celebrating the World Water Day at our school. The theme we decided to focus on was WATER & ART but not only that. Some students visited an interactive exhibition "Water Strikes on My Mind" and they also saw the theater performance "Water, Little Water". Other students went to The Water House to learn some interesting facts about water and to play "Water Jeopardy". Some classes devoted the day to special technique painting brides, aqueducts and other constructions connected with water. Older students searched different areas of art where some famous artists were inspired by water and they made mind maps on that.

Since the part of the project named “Water and the micro-climate“ was done under the strict COVID 19 precautions and mostly in online mode for all schools the events were slightly modified and adjusted to the given situation of each school. The chapter had three consecutive parts in P16, P19 and P20 events  which due to the forced changes can be overlapping.
The older students of our school watched a documentary with a follow-up discussion with their form teachers. The documentary called: "The landscape in the state of emergency" was focused on the water retention in the landscape and its influence on the climate and the climate change. It also showed some new ways of sustainable water management. The activity was not very demanding and so it was suitable for all students even the students with specific educational needs.

In Art lessons, the students started working on illustrations for the first chapter of the book, which they prepared during their Czech language lessons & translated in their English lessons. First they decided to design a picture of the main character of the story a "Little Water Drop". Then they illustrated the different activities of the Little Drop of Water. They looked at all the drawings they made in the first lesson and decided that it would be nice if the whole chapter was illustrated in one style. So they decided on one of them, with the best drawing of the Little Water Drop, to draw all illustrations to support the text. When drawing was done the IT work started. To put the text and the illustrations together  and make it digital took some time and needed some advice from IT people but before Christmas all was finished and the first chapter was completed. The book "relay" was passed on to our Greek partners.

The younger students prepared map with natural sources of mineral water.  The older students, namely students of 8th grade discussed the topic in their Geography and Biology lessons. Then, with support of their Geography teacher, they searched the map of Czech Republic for places or areas with possible or real problems with water. They also discussed some places with some natural sights connected with water. Then they marked the water bodies of our country to the blind map. They marked the problem places to this map and accompanied them with short texts which they translated to English with their English teacher.

P9 MEET ME: "I am water" WATER IN HUMAN LIFE

# data[].attributes.body
Students of 8th and 9th grades did some brainstorming activities to name all areas of human life where people encounter water in both positive and negative ways. This task was addressed in several consecutive English lessons in the online mode. Students were divided into groups of four or five and they did part of this task as homework. The lists with as many areas of human life where water is present as they could think of were the partial outcomes of their homework.  Then these lists were compared and one big list was made using the data from all student groups. In another lesson the students matched their findings to possible school subjects in which the given aspect of water can be tought about. Then they made a mind map showing in which areas of human life we can find water and its influence and in which school subject we can learn about them. The mind map was shared on Twinspace.

OUR WHITEBOARD FOR COLLECTING THE VOCABULARY

# data[].attributes.body
The first part of Creative Dictionary creation was all about collecting data - in this case it was about collecting vocabulary connected with water. In our school we started with having an extra big whiteboard in the corridor where all the school children have to pass. It was the way to the school canteen and to the dressing rooms. By the whiteboard there were some pens to write on the whiteboard. In the middle of the whiteboard there was the word "WATER". All teachers were informed about the whiteboard and what is its purpose. The teachers informed all the students and especially in English lessons they did some example brainstorming activities creating some vocabulary mindmaps. These in-lesson activities were to motivate the students to take part in creation of the big mind map.  The idea was to let students of all ages help to accomplish the task of making the big school mind map collecting the vocabulary for the creative dictionary. The words had to be connected to water. The students could add the words anytime they wanted. The younger students went to this whiteboard with their teachers. The very young students (the first graders and the second graders) were helped to understand the mind map because it was all in English. The period for collecting the vocabulary was prolonged due to COVID restrictions which put the school to online mode for quite a long time.

The chlidren of different grades started creating the story for the first chapter within their Czech language lessons with their Czech language teacher Mrs. Iva Eybertová. At first before they started the actual essay writing they spoke about the project objective “WATER“ and also about the importance of such projects. Then they learned more about the Water Drop Story Book and the way it would be processed. The idea of sharing the story with partners abroad was really exciting for the students. Next they did a bit of brainstorming activity which helped them to start writing their own stories. After that they wrote their essays. After about a week, in their Czech language lessons, they read the essays and then they decided on the best stories. The best ideas were made into one story which became the first chapter of The Book. Most of this work was done in the period affected by the COVID 19 restrictions in the on-line regime. In some ways it was more difficult but the idea of cooperating on making together one story allowed the children to get the feeling of beeing a part of something bigger. The feeeling they belong to the team which was something very important at that time.

On 25th September 2020 The Creative Dictionary was introduced in short to all partner countries. It was done during our online meeting via watsapp. Creative Dictionary  is a long-term task and an important output of the project. There are two parts of creating the dictionary.  The first part of data collecting and then the second part of data processing. The creative dictionary will be finished in March 2022. The first part of creating the Creative Dictionary was ment to be done through brainstorming activities and the outcome should be a mindmap of vocabulary connected with water. The way of proccessing this first part is up to each partners decision - can be done using the IT technologies, can be done with the conservative means - using just paper and pen, white or blackboard and chalk or whiteboard marker or even in some unusual way.

The children of our school created several designs of the logo in the first fourteen days of September. All were somehow presenting water and the participating countries. The top four designs were put to the vote. The winning design was introduced to the partner schools in different shades of colour. The partrner schools were asked to give their preferencies of the colour. On 22nd September we had an online meeting with our partner schools where the logo was discussed. After a short discussion via watsapp all partner schools agreed on using the logo with the most preferred shade of colours and thus the logo for our project was approved and all partner schools started using it.

Chlidren from all the partner schools, inclusive of our school, created  ICT presentations of their schools and towns.  The ICT presentations were shared on Twinspace and the children of our school Erateam viewed all partner schools presentations. Since the COVID restrictions held almost all schools in the online mode, the process of starting the Twinspace accounts was delayed. Later on the children of our Erateam and the children from our partner schools as well started their Twinspace accounts where they introduced themselves.
