Abstract

The celebration of our country’s 100 year of unification called for a different approach in primary school context to discover about community, national values, and important Romanian figures. The development of socio-cultural identity in primary school children through different learning projects leads them in learning about different traditions and specificity of their country. The children were challenged by their teacher to make different projects involving their peers and also knowledge to showcase their understanding for traditions and customs. Pupils learned and had a powerful experience researching for historical facts about their ancestors and the minorities who live in their country. Group and individual projects helped the children in a better understanding of the differences and similarities between the people living in our country. The current paper presents some of the practices and projects that took place in the classroom of third graders starting with September 2017.
