Our project s plan (joint activity)

TOGETHER IN EXPO 2015 overcomes divisions and geographic boundaries. It invites you to discover differences, similarities, points of view, cultures and habits, through EXPO Milano 2015 and its themes.
What about?
The project aims at increasing students motivation and interest for connecting real life with learning. The participating teachers will use the multiple intelligences theory to discover and develop each students particular skills, needs and interest.Coffee is just part of life for many, but for some it is a new and exciting phenomenon. Not everyone is aware that a coffe bean is the seed of a fruit, or that it needs to be roasted before it can be ground and brewed. An increasing number of caffes treat coffee as the fresh, seasonal product that it is, and promote it as an ingredient and a drink that takes skill to grow and prepare. For anyone who appreciates the value of quality, sustainability, and care, a speciality coffee house is the perfect place to socialize, explore new flavours, and soak up a unique atmosphere. We would like to create this atmosphere here, to our project.
