During the development of this project, students and teachers will gather information about the traditional cooking, folk music, dance, costumes and customs of their country and they will discover those of their partners by exchanging information. They will also practice their ICT skills, use foreign languages and research on their own historical and artistic heritage. With this project, students will have a chance to look for, classify, talk about, share, write, compare and present information on their culture and that of their partners. “LUCIAN GRIGORESCU” – ELEMENTARY SCHOOL - MEDGIDIA – CONSTANTA – ROMANIA http://grigorescumed.scoli.edu.ro Contact persons: CIOCAN EMILIA – e-mail: emlia_ciocan@yahoo.com PENELEA TATIANA – e-mail: tatianaprofi@yahoo.com
