We have the opportunity to combine the old traditional sport games from other countries and our physical education curriculum. Students (1115) in their physical education classes could make the material from our old sport games that would be shared with their peers in Europe. After that, students should try out other games and send reports on how we do it. At the end of the school year we will dedicate a whole week to traditional sport games of nations in Europe. This eTwinning project would last from mid-April to mid-July. The most positive impressions and games we could place in our physical education curriculum for students 7 -15 years old.
