We made the fifth visit of our project, Colors, which we carried out within the scope of Erasmus, with the participation of all partners, at the school 4 DIMOTIKO PEFKON  in Thessaloniki, Greece, between 14-16 March 2023. The first day of our visit started with the welcome speech of the host school and the countries gave each other gifts. .Then, each country entered a classroom and had the opportunity to meet the students and give lessons. Thus, the partners also communicated with the students and taught a subject of their own culture. After the class visit, we attended the show prepared by the students in the conference hall as parents, teachers and guests. The students performed their traditional dances and songs. The students performed a theater play and asked questions about the characteristics of all partner countries and gave information about the countries. The subject of our Greek partner was interpersonal and intrapersonal intelligence and we watched three different plays they prepared on this subject. Finally, students who presented a fashion show they designed out of waste materials, went on stage one by one and showed us their designs.

After the students' performance, a workshop was organized by Lecturer Michslis Palapouidia. He  asked us to do a study on the feelings of a boy named George, who had just moved to Thessaloniki, about his first day at school.We were divided into 5  groups and each group tried to express the child's feelings on the first day of school with various symbols and key words and made a presentation on this subject. Finally, the pieces of the puzzle were put together and a human head emerged. We have gained more awareness concerning with the feelings of our students’ feelings and emotions.

The second day of our visit started with the project meeting. At the meeting, the activities carried out so far were reviewed and the topics of the following months were discussed. Our Spanish partner gave information about the family day and nature activities, which are the topics of April. Our Swedish partner gave information and explained how to make the virtual choir which is one of our common activities. It was reminded to write the story one by one and it was decided to make an e-book when it is finished. Information was given about the Mobility tool and Esep Platforms. Our Swedish partner gave information about the details before the visit to be made in May. Finally, our Greek partner gave information about the Greek education system and the functioning of the school such as religion and language education, participation of the family union, the lesson hours, the lessons after school and the transportation of the students etc.

After the project meeting, a workshop called Mirrorings was held by the lecturers  of Theatrical Team. The workshop, which included many different activities, started with everyone saying their name and something they liked. Then we imagined the middle area as the world in our minds and each country took its place on the map according to its own location. The lecturers tried to guess that which country we come from by looking at our locations.As the third activity, everyone said good morning in their own language with our own gestures and mimics. A mirror was hung on the wall and we were asked to line up from the lightest hair color to the darkest one. And then we were asked to write a detail that we saw on our faces by looking at the mirror.We became pairs, one person showed movements, mimics and facial expressions and the other one tried to imitate that person like a mirror. In another activity, everyone was given two sheets of paper and asked us to write on one piece of paper a habit we like to show to others, and on the second sheet a habit that we do not like to show. We pasted them on a human body on the wall and so we saw that we all have sides that we like and don't like to show the others. And finally, we were divided into groups of five and each group was given a picture. Each group tried to portray their own picture and the others tried to understand the painting. Thus, we did a lot of work on our emotions in this workshop and we decided to apply them in our classroom.

On the last day of our visit, an assistant professor of school of psychology from Aristotle University came and organized a workshop.First of all she asked how knowledgable we are about MI and what our MI profile is.We discussed how our own MI profile impact our teaching approach in our classrooms.She gave information about characteristics for educational programs incorporating MI and examples of activities related to interpersonal and intrapersonal intelligences.
