- The region of Beneov attracts many tourists by natural beauties
and good conditions for doing sports, traditional folk customs and
culture. It is situated on the highest place in this area. In our
district there are many worth seeing places (Moravien Karst).

- The school is located in the south-east of the Czech Republic
(district: Blansko). It is a small village school, which is
attended by many pupils from small local villages in the region.
The Beneov school is attended by 125 pupils from several villages
from surrounding. and there are 11 teachers. Our pupils are at the
age from 6 - 15 years. They learn English from the 2nd class and
German from the 7th class.

- Lets learn English language through tales and stories it was
the main idea of the project Story- Based English Teaching. Four
countries were involved in this project Turkey, Poland, Romania and
the Czech Republic. Turkey was the Main coordinator of this
project.
- Slide 5
- All project partners had to decide and choose some of tales
which should reprezent their country. Then we all created stories,
translated texts, made and enclosed funny activities connected to
the stories to the international portal. There were prezentations,
puzzles, crosswords, colouring pictures and quizzes. A Generous
Lion A stingy hunter sees a lion in the forest and he starts to
watch it. The lion catches a big deer and it takes the dead deer to
its own family to eat. After its family has eaten the deer meat,the
lion starts some of the remained but it doesnt finish the whole
meat and gives it to the other lions. Hunter watches the sharing
soul among the animals in astonishment. He comes back to his home
feeling sad about his stingy character. We can learn something from
everybody sometimes even from animals. (a story from Turkey) Our
partner Marinela from Romania sent The Story of Lazy Man. It tells
how a lazy man wastes a lady's mercy and punished by the villagers.
I noticed the last sentence "So the bridge was mended and my story
ended" Thanks Marinela for such a cultural bridge from Romania
- Slide 6
- From many suggestions of tales we chose the character of the
Little Mole. To response to our story in which the main character
was greedy cow were enlightening fables from Turkish partners.
Children from Romania continued this vein as well. And children
from Poland made their own stories which was based on proverbs and
sayings too. Morals are probably the same in all countries.

- We decided to put on a theatre performance in the Czech English
version. We played the tale Kitty and Doggy at our school academy.
We also presented our co-operations in the international project to
the public there.
