Оur experience of Polish-Ukrainian cooperation with Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań.

Greetings from Veronika Bevzenko and Karina Tkachenko, students of the 301 group in the "Primary Education" specialty.

We would like to share our experience of Polish-Ukrainian cooperation with Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań. Over several months, we worked on various projects.

Veronika focused on a pedagogical-psychological direction, resulting in an article on civic engagement and an e-book with scenarios for fostering civic engagement in students. We also have printed short versions of this guide.

Karina's direction involved writing songs for children on the topic of emotions in two languages: Ukrainian and Polish. The idea was to help children express their emotions and understand them better. The project received a grant to record three songs in a professional studio. The recordings involved students as well as Ukrainian children studying at the ballet school in Poznań. The first song is dedicated to gratitude and is performed in both Polish and Ukrainian. The second song is about fear in Ukrainian, and the third song also addresses fear but in a Polish-Ukrainian version.

The continuation of last year's summer school provided us with even more experience, skills, and inspiration! We had the opportunity to communicate with many professionals in the fields of education and music, exchange ideas, and learn new teaching methods and creative approaches. This project not only helped us develop our skills but also contributed to strengthening Polish-Ukrainian relations and cultural exchange.

We are sincerely grateful for the opportunity and hope that our experience will inspire others to undertake similar initiatives.
