Whiteboard
Introduction – Dorsten
With means out of the Comenius REGIO budget the
von Ketteler-school could afford a digital whiteboard. Connected to the
internet several interactive teaching methods are possible.
In order to handle all possibilities of the
board an employee of the whiteboard-company introduced the teachers to the
board.
School dog training,
March 2015, Dorsten
After being introduced to the school dog of our
partner school in Rybnik during the last visit, three of von Ketteler-teachers
took their private dogs and visited a further training about educating dogs to
school dogs. They learned details about the practical use in school,
requirements of both teachers and dogs, as well as methods to introduce the
school in class.
A school dog is especially useful for students
of our school, as it can both risen the student´s motivation by relaxing the
atmosphere in class, as well as encouraging them to care for others.

Comenius
REGIO yearly conference in Bonn, Germany
Once a
year members of Comenius REGIO and ERASMUS+ projects meet. This time a
conference in Bonn was held to bring together interested organizations (such as
universities, cities and schools) and those involved in a project right now. We
presented our project and got many insights into other projects. Also, we as
teachers, have to be motivated once in a while – and discussing project issues
with others from all over Germany was incredibly interesting.

Handicrafts
is a good way to motivate students. To
get to know different tools, teachers of von Ketteler-Schule did a machinery
course on the 7th& 8th of November 2014. With the
support of a carpenter it was the task to build slats for breakfast and a
picture frame within these two days. The work with tools like a circular saw
was a new experience to most of the participating teachers and helped a lot to
appraise the possibilities within handicrafts lessons.
Have a
look for yourself…
