Heroes Around Us

 Heroes Around Us – Mini-Reading and International Debate

Students explored the concept of heroism by reading a short text, either an extract from The Lightning Thief or a story about a local hero, in their own classrooms. After the reading, they identified heroic qualities, moments of courage and kindness, and discussed connections with real-life heroes.

The activity continued in the eTwinning Forum, where students worked in international mixed groups. Each school contributed a discussion question, and students from different countries shared their ideas, exchanged opinions, and reflected together on what it means to be a hero today. Teachers moderated the discussions, encouraging active participation and respectful interaction.
