Project Leader

Aim : 

To foster the curiosity of children about life in countries other than their own.

Method :


Children or their teachers photograph items of interest in the street near where they live, items such as postboxes, garbage bins, police cars and these are compared with those from other countries. 

This is a continuation of the Earth Calendar Online Exploring the Street Project.
