The results of all our work is not only documented on the Twinspace but the activities and instructions can be found in the following digital book:

 

An important result of this project is that is has risen interest on Mindfulness in our school. Mindfulness is now one of the main themes of our new Erasmus+ project! Therefore, inspired by all the activities of the project, on 31st May (towards the end of this wonderful eTwinning journey) we took part into a Mindfulness lesson with Mrs Luisa Colapinto, a Mindfulness expert from our town, Savigliano.

We learned something more about Mindfulness and we practiced it. Of course our eTwinning partners could not be there with us but we want to share pictures and what we learned with them. 

We learned to close our eyes without fear, feeling free, listening to what is around us and paying attention to what's inside us, our emotions, pains, out thoughts. We even danced keeping our eyes closed, without the fear of feeling judged or mocked by the others. We also learned that eyes are important, they tell about our stories, what we really are, even when we don't speak. We watched a wonderful video:

Next year Mindfulness will hopefully be introduced as a school project for all the classes and practiced during our new Erasmus adventure (especially in October 2023 when we'll be hosting German students in our school).
