The handbook
We cordially invite Polish school teachers and experts who want to write or participate in the formation of extra-curricular activities handbook for Civic Education for middle school students from Polish schools in Lithuania. From our proposals together we will choose the topics that in your opinion must be found in our textbook. We want the pupils to reach for the handbook with pleasure and be curious about what will happen on its next pages. We are looking forward to hearing your opinions, observations, comments – they are all very important to us, so that it can best serve you and your students.
The handbook will be available to everyone FREE OF CHARGE and under a free license.This means that teachers will be able to edit, customize and improve it without violating the copyright. It will contain lesson plans, interesting ideas for discussions and tasks to perform. But for it to be created we need Your help.
If you are interested please fill in the survey at: www.efhr.eu or contact us at: wos@efhr.eu. Those who’ve done it are invited to a meeting that will take place on 29th September (details for those who declare their willingness to participate in the meeting will be given later). The number of seats is limited.
