During one month and a half students from different countries create photo albums about their own classes or a group of students (min 12) within one class. They express (through letters, pictures, videos) how important the class is for them, how they function as one group at school and outside the school, on the one hand. On the other hand, students present their own hobbies, friends or
members of families, everything what makes each of them unique.
In this way participants show how the collection of
individuals exists as one cohesive unit.

The project is also to encourage students’ intercultural understanding and collaborative learning and working as well as to improve the well-being of the individual within
the group and the status of the whole group.

In the third week each of them prepares a short presentation or film about his/her private life: family, friends, hobbies, extra activities, etc.
In the meantime and in the next two weeks, they gather photos about “the class life” (how the class functions during lessons, breaks, some school events).
Last week is dedicated to making photo albums about the class and sending them to partners.
