Project Activities

Meet the partner class and share what makes a classroom feel friendly

Students introduce themselves and their school to the partner class, then discuss friendly habits they notice in their own classroom. The live call builds trust before the project work begins.

Duration: 20 minutes

Research, interview, and co-draft the friendly classroom charter

Students interview peers locally and with the partner class using simple questions, then compare findings and draft a shared list of practical friendly habits for learners and teachers. Mixed international groups agree on the strongest habits and write them clearly.

Duration: 45 minutes

Present and refine the charter in a second live call

Each team presents the draft charter to the partner class, gathers feedback, and the two classes decide together which habits to keep, change, or drop. Students then pick one habit to pilot in their own classroom and note how it goes.

Duration: 25 minutes
