Evaluation of the meeting:
The UK team has a very high opinion of the meeting. It was very well
planned and the agenda gave us the possibility to achieve our aims and goals
with regards to the project. Our hosts created good conditions for work. The
accommodation was excellent and there were splendid opportunities to gain an
intimate knowledge of Polish culture and cuisine. The UK staff are even more
enthusiastic about the project as they feel they know so much more about it and
the impact will hopefully be seen in school upon our return.
It was a pleasure to meet everyone after such a long communication in
planning and we are delighted that the teams are so obviously keen to work well
together to make the project a success.

Evaluation of the meeting:
This was the first meeting of
our project. We have been working with each other for nearly two years and it was
nice to meet after a long time of communication online.
We were greeted very friendly
in Polish town and school. We learned a lot about Polish culture, tasted food
from their cuisine. We also had workshops about our project which are very
useful for understanding the framework of the project better. We also observed a
Maths lesson which was about the 3rd task of the project. It was an
interesting and developing experience.
We are very happy to be in
this project team and looking forward to taking part in the upcoming meetings.

Evaluation of the meeting:
We arrived at Warsaw
on the 7th of February, the day before we were supposed to meet our
partners, because it was more economically convenient. This offered us the
chance to visit the capital and some of the most significant historic places of the country. We visited
the historic center, the Jewish cemetery and historical memorials. Also inside
the Palace of Culture, with our surprise we found cardboard models of the
building: an activity of our project.
It is hard to find
the words to express how we feel: it has been a wonderful experience!
We live in Sicily and
we are not used to cold weather, but our hosts, partners, students and all the
community warmed us up!
We were very
impressed how talented all the students are!
We are also very
proud to be part of the project “Maths
is everywhere” and to have partners as friendly as all of you.
We are looking forward to the next
gathering.

Evaluation of the meeting:
We all feel that the meeting in Poland was a genuine success. We managed
to work on some of the aspects of the project that were more difficult to
tackle with via internet and team-work proved to be very productive. We were
also able to see how the Polish partner approached each task of the project and
the Maths lesson we took part in regarding task 3 of the project was a great
example of good practice.
We must also add the fact that we felt everybody did their best to make
us feel comfortable and made every effort necessary for us to get to know and
appreciate the extraordinary diversity of Polish culture, customs and
traditions. We are certain that our students will be delighted to be part of
this meeting during dissemination and will be encouraged to discover other
countries in the European Union.
We are extremely glad to have had the opportunity to work together on
the project and share ideas.
