| Justification and description of the activity: |
|
In order to learn to respect others and to put into practice tolerance, we must first know ourselves and others so as to discover that no one is the same as another. The group of 17 pupils participating in Erasmus – RESPECT, visited the specialized mental and social health promotion center “Kallipolis” and participated in experiential activities by the guidance of experts. This activity was followed by one more meeting at school where students presented their experience. |

|
| Sequence of activities: |
 |
Activation activity |
|
| |
Pupils stand up and form a circle holding each other's hand. The teacher passed a hoop at two students through their joined hands. Students helping each other, raising their hands or bowing, managed to throughput the hoop around the circle without leaving their hands or use their fingers. |
|
|
Activity for self-esteem |
|
| |
Students, sitting in chairs, form a circle and the teacher throw a ball to one of them. The student who catches the ball says an element about himself which makes him feel proud, as well an element of the adjacent student that he would like to have. Then this student throws the ball to another and the
process continues until all students speak. After, each student says what he discovered about himself and others. |
|
|
Τrust and collaboration activity |
|
| |
Students gathered in a piece of cloth that was stretched out on the floor. They had to work together in order to find a way to turn upside down the piece of cloth while they were on it. This activity was done in two groups. |
|
|
"I am", "I like" and "I dislike" activity |
|
| |
Students work in groups of 4-5 persons. Each group is sitting in chairs placed in a circle. Each student says something that he likes and something that does not like. Students can refer to anything they like and do not like feelings, characteristics, concepts, etc. Similarities and differences become more clear and precise. |
