We have completed the Erasmus+ project \u201cBilingual and Sustainable Education: More Diversity, Nature and Movement\u201d<\/h1>\n\t
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t

In August 2026, M-Studio completed the year-long Erasmus+ project \u201cBilingual and Sustainable Education: More Diversity, Nature and Movement\u201d, which ran from 4 August 2025 to 3 August 2026.
\nThe project aimed to strengthen teachers\u2019 professional competences in bilingual and inclusive education, explore ways of incorporating more movement, exploration and outdoor learning into children\u2019s everyday education, and further develop green and sustainable educational practices.
\nFour preschool teachers took part in the project, which included two international mobilities: a training course in Prague and a job-shadowing visit in Leverkusen, Germany.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

New educational ideas in Prague<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

In Prague, our teachers participated in the Erasmus+ course \u201cLittle Minds, Big Ideas: Revolutionizing Kindergarten\u201d. During the training, they explored gamification, creative learning activity planning, STEM projects, the application of Multiple Intelligences Theory, and other modern approaches to early childhood education.
\nInternational exchange was also an important part of the mobility. The course brought together educators from various European countries, giving our teachers an opportunity not only to learn, but also to share their own professional experience, discuss different educational practices, and bring back new ideas that can be applied at M-Studio.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

Job Shadowing at Die Rheinpiraten Kindergarten in Germany<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
\n\t
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t

During the second mobility, our teachers travelled to Leverkusen, where they observed everyday life and educational practices at the small Die Rheinpiraten kindergarten. The kindergarten has one mixed-age group of 17 children aged 1 to 6.<\/p>\n

What impressed our teachers most was the highly flexible approach to the children\u2019s day. The kindergarten does not follow a strict daily schedule \u2013 activities are planned according to the weather, the number of children present, their needs and interests. Many activities are optional: children are invited to join but can decide for themselves when and for how long they wish to participate. Plenty of time and space is given to free play, exploration and independence.
\nOur teachers observed sensory activities in the art room, cooking with children, road safety activities, creative projects and even a traditional British Tea Party. Particularly memorable was how naturally learning extends beyond the kindergarten itself. On one of the days, the entire group took a ferry to the other side of the Rhine, had a picnic in a park and spent the day exploring the surroundings and playing.<\/p>\n

It was also interesting to observe the level of trust placed in the children. Older children are encouraged to decide for themselves how to dress according to the weather, learn to recognise their body\u2019s needs and make everyday choices independently. Great emphasis is placed on practical experiences, recognising and regulating emotions, sustainable creative activities and children\u2019s own initiative.<\/p>\n

The job-shadowing visit was also an opportunity for mutual exchange. Our teachers introduced their German colleagues to everyday educational practices at TEMEM and M-Studija, including celebrations, teamwork and activities with children. At the end of the visit, they also shared a little Lithuanian culture with the children by making tinginys, a traditional Lithuanian chocolate biscuit dessert.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

Bringing the Experience Back to M-Studio<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The value of Erasmus+ mobility for us lies not only in the opportunity to see how colleagues in other European countries work. What matters most is identifying what is meaningful for our children and turning new ideas into everyday practice.
\nThe project gave us practical ideas for creating more opportunities for free play and children\u2019s choice, developing sensory spaces, learning beyond the kindergarten environment, encouraging more active participation, introducing creative STEM activities, strengthening sustainable education, and fostering children\u2019s independence.<\/p>\n

The project has come to an end, but the experiences and ideas gained through it remain part of M-Studio \u2013 in our teachers\u2019 work, in new approaches, and in the children\u2019s everyday experiences.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Baig\u0117me \u201eErasmus+\u201c projekt\u0105 \u201eDvikalbis ir tvarus ugdymas: daugiau \u012fvairov\u0117s, gamtos ir jud\u0117jimo\u201c 2026 m. rugpj\u016bt\u012f M-Studija baig\u0117 metus trukus\u012f \u201eErasmus+\u201c projekt\u0105 \u201eDvikalbis ir tvarus ugdymas: daugiau \u012fvairov\u0117s, gamtos ir jud\u0117jimo\u201c (Bilingual and sustainable education: more diversity, nature and movement).
