ACMÉ Note de coordination internationale n°2 - ALL CITIZENS 002 - 2024/12/14 Le 14 décembre 2024

HELLO ! Kaixo ! Bonjour... 

We hope that you will be kind enough to let us know your intentions by Christmas or at the very beginning of January and, to help you, I will give you some details concerning our ambitions for the Ravel high school.

As a reminder, two possible areas of work within the framework of the ACMÉ / RESISTANCE system: studying Resistance to oppression and the fight for Freedom (History and Memory, civic education) or Resilience in the face of crises, particularly climate crises (Life sciences, Geography and civic education)

Concrete achievements to be publicized.

The main product of the project would be audios to share to develop Orality, then the debate (examples are available on the high school's Podcast site called "QUINTESSENCE.RADIO") but other achievements of a different nature are possible, to highlight on our Twinspace: videos for example, eTwinning guaranteeing that students are not exposed to the gaze of intruders foreign to secondary education.

Mobilities and events scheduled.

Concretely, in terms of our agenda: we have already planned to go to Poland (not the Ravel high school, but some adult members of the association) in the Spring or this summer...

We must also (the French high school) receive a Latvian school in May (possible work on resilience in the face of the climate crisis and the sixth extinction, but also on resistance to totalitarianism).

We are asked to "mark the occasion" on June 18 (85th anniversary of Operation ARIEL celebrated by the municipality) or even to participate in an exhibition on this theme (the work can take place later, not necessarily on June 18, and be adapted according to the partner - for example, work on the Gernika battalion is possible, or on the Spanish of the second DB etc.)

We should go to Poland, this time with students, next school year (KA1 / towards Auschwitz and Gdansk)

Resources

As for our secondary school: we plan to include several classes in the system, therefore to address both axes

Group 1 of Franco-Spanish students (with the participation of the two Spanish teachers from the international section, therefore the possibility of using Castilian and English or even French - I also have these students in class, usually) / perhaps preferably on the theme of resilience, but everything is possible with regional partners, depending on their expectations

Group 2 of students specializing in History and Philosophy (we are two teachers involved) more interested in Totalitarianism

Group 3 a Latin-Greek group, open to questions relating to the city and citizenship, or even to approaches that may resonate with contemporary issues (parity, status of women and children, imperialism). Here again, the concrete work themes will be defined with the partner(s) who will be associated

We do not think that all schools must necessarily take part in the two axes of the project; the concrete achievements must be adjusted to the means (therefore remain modest). Of course we are open to mobility (local meetings or hosting accredited mobilities).

Best Regards
