Balancing Emotions: An 'Inside Out' Journey through Math and STEAM

   

Balancing Emotions: An ‘’Inside-Out’’ journey through Math and Steam is an eTwinning project that enhances the cognitive and emotional development of kindergarten children aged 4-6 years.

The duration of the program will be from October 2024 to May 2025 and 24 teachers from 6 countries, Greece, Romania, Turkey, Poland, Lithuania and Latvia will participate in it.

During the project and through appropriately structured activities, kindergarten students  will discover, recognize and accept  six basic emotions, joy, sadness, surprise/excitement, anger, fear and love, and they will learn how important it is to be able to  manage and balance our emotions so that they don't complicate our daily lives and we can move on.

 

Our Goal in the Project

Through the activities of this  project  we would like to cultivate both the teaching goals and the spirit of cooperation with other countries of different language and culture.

• We aim to help our students recognize and understand their emotions, using Leo the Balancer as a guide to explore feelings and how they influence our daily lives.
• By teaching students strategies to balance their emotions, we hope to equip them with the tools they need to navigate challenges with confidence and resilience.
• In the learning process, students participate actively, responsibly and creatively
• We’ll encourage the use of technology and Web 2.0 tools to enhance learning, collaboration, and creativity.
• Through our project, we’ll model and encourage teamwork, empathy, and respect, both in our classrooms and among ourselves as educators.
• We will integrate math into our project to show students how it connects to real-life situations, helping them see math as a valuable tool for solving problems and making informed decisions.
• By incorporating Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics, we’ll engage students in creative and critical thinking, experiment, sparking curiosity and a chance for exploring the world around them.
• Our lessons will be designed to be engaging and meaningful, making learning enjoyable while integrating emotions, math, and STEAM concepts.
