Lifelong Learning Programme Comenius Multilateral School Partnership 2011-2013 “Our lives in the limelight� The project aimed at promoting a better understanding of various ways of European life. Participating teenagers used their own experience, observed different fields of life, wrote articles, took photos, drew pictures, made animations and videos. In the second year of the project they shared information about employment, the job market in their areas, their towns in the past and now and consumption of water and energy. Teachers cooperated in a practical and theoretical way, using modern technologies to communicate and different teaching methods . During the visits students and teachers participated in multi-cultural group work such as painting, dancing, singing, designing CD cover, writing articles on different topics, photo sessions, editing videos and presentations. They also had the opportunity to take part in various events such as trips to places of historical importance, folk dance shows, school ceremonies.

Diary of the meeting in Poland 9-15 April 2013
From 9th to 14th of April 2013 we had especially important time for our community, particularly for students, who hosted guests from European countries. I was one of the hosts. The whole adventure began on Tuesday 9th when our quests arrived to our houses.
15
10th April 2014 The next day we spent at school showing it round to the visitors from abroad. After that we did some tasks prepared for the purpose of the project. We prepared quizzes related to the project and we also wrote letters for future generations including information about environmental problems. After a few hours of studying we went sightseeing Kraszewice and the flour mill which is one of the main workplaces in our village. At the end of the first day we had a party at school. We had great fun there. Spanish students turned out to be the best dancers !
16
11Th April 2013 Thursday was a ‘Green Day’ in our school. We had a lot of activities related to environment. The first task was connected with fashion, but the extraordinary one. We had to design some fashionable clothes with the use of recycled materials such as plastic bags, caps, tinfoil. We had a professional support from our friend, a professional make-up-artist. It was a wonderful experience and the results of our work were amazing. We not only had a lot of laughter together but we also learned that some materials, fabrics and plastic can be reused. The audience present at the fashion show appreciated our work. Gathered in the school gym, we watched the play ‘Little Green Riding Hood’ prepared by fist graders. Later, we shared the results of the experiment we did during the last two
17
12th April 2013 Friday was a very busy day. We started the day at 4.30. We visited Kraków and Wieliczka, beautiful and picturesque places worth seeing – our national treasures. St. Mary’s Church, Cloth Hall, Old Town – all of them impressed us enormously.
18
13th April 2013 Saturday was the day we spent in the Forest Centre in Gołuchów where we had some outdoor tasks to do. It was funny and challenging experience. We were working in international groups and looking for dendrological treasures in the park. We discovered a lot of new facts about trees, their growth, importance to human life and environment.
19
In the evening we had an official dinner with many prominent guests such as the member of the European Parliament for Poland, representatives of local and regional governments and board of education, mayor of Kraszewice, sponsors. There were also friends of our school, parents and teachers. It was a kind of meeting where we summarised the project outcomes and thanked for the effort and involvement.
20
14th April 2013 On Sunday we went to Wrocław , the last place on our tour map. We visited many interesting places and in the evening we said goodbye to our Comenius friends. It was hard to believe that this was the end of such a wonderful adventure. We could not hide tears.

Comenius experience visiting in POLAND - Spanish Students DANIEL ORTIZ (Lepe, Spain) This last travel to Poland was a really good experience because it was the last travel that we did in this Comenius Project and it was so sad for me because I should say good bye to all people. Also it was a great experience because I like the Polish culture and also the people who I were because they are nice people and I know that the friends that I have done there are going to be for all my life. The cities are also very beautiful and I like them too much. I know that the project has finished buy the friendship that I did there I think that are going to be forever so thank you to all the families and teachers who did this project come true and fulfill all our dreams. Thank you! JULIA BLANCO (Lepe, Spain) Comenius experience has been the best experience of my life. I never thought I would be able to find another family manymiles away. There have been memorable moments in just five days, full of laughter and tears the last day. I'm glad I've found real good friends in Poland and a second family, that was the best family I could ever have. It is an incredible way to share cultures and languages, and although it has been more than a month we are maintaining contact. The truth is that I will never forget because it is impossible and of course expect to see them again. Impossible to describe in words. CAROLINA MORALES CORO (Lepe, Spain) Comenius experience in Poland was very enriching , because it gave me the opportunity to know a new country, very different to mine, new habits, new food, new places, etc. But, what I liked most was to meet new friends. Great people who I will always remember. We spent together unforgettable days, full of happiness. Teachers and student lived in Poland many anecdotes which we will never forget. They, our Polish, Greek and Portuguese friends were definitely the best of the experience. Without forget the families. They were very good people, friendly and sweet, who made our stay there perfect. THANKS POLAND. ABRAHAM JURADO WILSON /(Lepe, Spain) My experience in Poland was really good, at first I thought they ate strange traditional polish food or that they had strange timetables, but then I realised it was like here, in Spain. There was snow everywhere, for me it was exciting because I had only seen snow a couple of times. We stayed in Kraszewice, a small but nice village, people were nice, food was nice, my 'New' family was nice. I had great fun, it was a experience I would repeat.

Comenius experience visiting in SPAIN - Polish Students "Our lives in the Limelight" - a week full of unforgettable impressions and memories Thanks to 'Comenius' I had a chance to participate in a weekly exchange in the south of Spain - Lepe. On a Sunday afternoon when I was received by a Spanish family, I felt that this would be the best week of my life. With great delight I participated in a trip to Sevilla. I enjoyed the city view from a high tower. A trip to Aracena and Huelva also provided me with many impressions. I had there the opportunity to see 'Las Maravillas Grotto' and the church, from which I could enjoy the picturesque view of the mountains. The trip to Doñana National Park was also a good idea. To my surprise, I saw there animals that also live in Poland (fallow deer, red deer, wild boar, horses). Through this week I was hosted by a fantastic girl - Estefania. She is very kind, friendly and beautiful. Although she is a year older than me, I felt as if we were twin sisters and knew each other for many years. Throughout the whole stay in Lepe I felt that we became one big family. When the week was about to finish, I was sorry to say "goodbye". Even today , I miss all the friends I met during this trip. With many of them I’m in touch. I MISS EVERYONE! Well… SEE YOU IN POLAND! Dominika Osmalak, Poland
My experience in Spain My initial feelings associated with travel to Spain were mixed. I enjoyed the idea of participating in the exchange but I was also a bit afraid of it. However everything was ok. The first hours of "my adventure" were not very pleasant, but with every day I loved it more and more. . During the project I met many interesting people who were mostly Spanish, but also Greek and Portuguese. Lessons in Lepe were not interesting for me because I don’t understand Spanish. But the lesson of English was interesting and involving. All in all, my experiences from Spain are positive, and if I could, I would take part in the project again.

Comenius experience visiting in SPAIN - Polish Students My Spanish adventure In October 2012 I was in Spain. I went there because I take part in a Comenius project. To tell you the truth, I was really delighted when I heard that I would go there with my friends. They said that it is hard to talk to other people only in English, but I believed that it would be ok. I was a bit anxious because I wasn’t able to get to know my host family before meeting them in Spain. Besides, it was the first time I flew the airplane. Luckily, it turned out to be an exciting and funny experience. We had a complicated journey, involving two changes. When we arrived in Faro in Portugal we stayed overnight in a nice hostel, where all drinks were on the house. In the morning we went sightseeing. The town had awesome views and a lot of historical buildings. Later in the evening we took a bus to Villa Real (by the Spanish border) where we met our host families. They took me to my “new” home. I had to get used to speaking only in English. It wasn’t easy at first and sometimes I mixed two languages, Polish and English. Jose, my host student, introduced me to many nice people. He was very friendly and I would love to host him in Poland in return. Our days were varied and exceptionally pleasant. We took part in interesting activities at school which was really big, twice as big as mine. At first it seemed as a huge maize with lots of corridors. The students there were really cool, relaxed and so cheerful. I especially enjoyed the English classes and school breaks. However, the lessons were too long for me. The Spanish took us to the beach, Seville and to many more interesting sights. I also had a chance to taste typical Spanish dishes and seafood which was so fresh and delicious, a real treat for the palate! Jose’s mother is a very good cook and I enjoyed her fish dishes and even mussels. What made me crazy , was the time the Spanish eat their meals. Dinners started at 8 pm and finished late at night. It took me some time to get used to it. On returning back to Poland I felt sad but bottled with lots of memories of the best friends from Spain. It was a great journey, and I had the time of my life. I can’t wait when the Spanish come to Poland. Thank you Comenius! Paweł Żuberek, Poland

Comenius experience visiting in SPAIN - Polish Students I spent a wonderful week in Spain I’ll never forget the time I spent in Spain and the places I visited. For a week I moved from cool Polish autumn weather to a continental climate. Owning to this trip I could meet a lot of nice and kind people. The most interesting thing for me was the flight to Spain because I had never flown a plane. I found out a lot about the culture and customs of Spain. For example, lessons in Spain last longer than in Poland. I paid my attention to beautiful landscapes and the beaches which were stretching for miles by the Ocean. The most interesting town which I have ever seen was Seville- the capital of Andalusia. I visited the Cathedral of Saint Maria and the model ship of Christopher Columbus. I also went up the tower, which had thirty floors. The view from the tower was amazing. (I saw the panorama of the city from it). The wonderful view had also the huge park called Donana, which is situated in the south - west of the Iberian Peninsula. It is famous of rich fauna and swamps. I could see there wild animals, which also live in my country. We could admire picturesque view of the mountains when we were in a church. My stay in Lepe gave me the chance to learn about cultures of other countries which take part in the project. I could improve my English. I understood that it is very important to speak English because we can contact with other people. The Spanish turned out to be very kind and cheerful. They’re also very hospitable. I like their expressive dances. Being worried before visiting Spain was completely unnecessary because I made friends on the first day. I’ll never forget this adventure, the journey which sank deep into my heart.

flow of air traffic in the global air traffic control system. The position of air traffic controller is one that requires highly specialized knowledge, skills, and abilities.
MY DREAM JOB Being an air traffic controller Evi Bairami, Greece
Controllers apply separation rules to keep aircraft at a safe distance from each other in their area of responsibility and move all aircraft safely and efficiently through their assigned sector of airspace, as well as on the ground. Because controllers have an incredibly large responsibility while on duty (often in aviation, "on position"), the ATC profession is consistently regarded around the world as one of the most challenging careers, and can be notoriously

stressful depending on many variables (equipment, configurations, weather, traffic volume, human factors, etc.). Many controllers, Air traffic controllers are people trained however, would cite high salaries and a very to maintain the safe, orderly and expeditious large and privileged degree of autonomy as major advantages of their jobs. The reason I have chosen this job is because I find it challenging but I was also influenced by my dad who is an air traffic controller in the air forces. In my opinion, to be an ATC in the air forces is very difficult because it is too stressful and demands a great deal of responsibility. So I think that ACT is a dangerous and difficult job but it is very exciting too.

In addition, it has been given a bad name due to people who didn‘t know how to practise it properly and What I want to be when I grow up? A reflexolo- who caused more harm than good. gist. What is that? Let me just explain.
My dream job - Reflexology
Reflexology is an alternative form of medicine in which the healer applies special pressure on and massages the feet, hands, ears, face even the tongue and nose of a patient. Its target is to To sum up, I believe that reflexology deserves maintain balance in the human body which can to be treated as a true science. Lots of studies be achieved through relaxation. have shown how beneficial it can be for the human body even in very difficult cases. Let me just mention the fact that in Great Britain it is part of the national health system and that I truly want to become a reflexologist, because I really want to help people relax from their exhausting routine and forget for a short while their stresses.
Reflexology offers a great number of benefits. First of all, it relieves stress and tension by releasing the therapeutic powers of a human body. Moreover, it brings balance and harmony to the system and paves the way for selfhealing. More specifically, it improves circulation, enhances the immune system, balances hormones and removes toxins. 27
MY DREAM JOB Who doesn't have a future dream? Nazaret Romero , Spain Lots of people dream with having a lot of money, others with travelling and others with finding the love of their lives. My dream for the future is to have a happy family, fulfill myself personally and finding the ideal job, but when I think about a job I wonder ‘what is my dream job?’ And sadly, after a long time thinking, I can't find the answer to this question.
When I find that job in what I can do that thing, I'll do anything to get it because it will be the basement of my happiness and if any day I start thinking it´s impossible to reach it, I´ll think in a famous phrase from a film that says: “Don’t ever let someone tell you that you can’t do something. You got a dream, you gotta protect it. When people can’t do something themselves, they’re gonna tell you that you can’t do it. You want something, go get it!”
What will my future job be? Abraham Jurado, Spain I'm sixteen and like a lot of people or teenagers of my age, I don't really know what my job in the future will be... I'm going to be honest with you all: I've got a few ideas or possibilities. I want so succed in life so I'm definetly going to study a degree at university -my parents aren't rich but they could support me economically. I might study law, as my father did. I'm quite intelligent, well not like Einstein but I consider myself to be fairly intelligent so I could be a good lawyer. When I was a little girl, I had a dream; everything was easier, I knew I wanted to be a clown to make all the kids in the world happy, and while I was making my dream come true one day I was a doctor, another day I was a cleaner, another day a vet... However, when you get older and more mature you realize that you can't have a different job every day. So now I'm in process of finding that job, what I can do every day of my life without getting tired, that job that I love, a job that will make me happier. It´s difficult to find it because I can't see myself working as anything, I only guess myself travelling around the world, meeting new cities, new cultures.
28
It could be a good idea but... I don't imagine myself sitting down in an office every day of my life, I need more action, so ''My dream job" would be being a detective or police inspector! I constantly imagine myself entering into houses investigating the crime scene or capturing burglars...
When I was in a primary school I changed my mind and decided to become a dietitian who advises people on what to eat in order to lead a healthy lifestyle. I got interested in cooking and healthy food. I started to read a lot of books and watch TV programs that were related to this topic. I became more aware of the influI think I will study at Seville University, do you know where Seville is?

In less than a year´s time, I will have a black belt in Taekwondo, so as for being active and speaking languages I have no problems but I´m a bit lazy so I have to study a lot to build my dream-job...
I want to be a dietitian Marika Skraburska, Poland When I was a little girl I wanted to be a famous singer. Together with my friend, we dressed in my mum’s clothes, we put on some make-up and we imagined that we were on a concert singing for the crowds of our fans. The brushes were our microphones and our fans were dolls and teddy bears. After some time I gave up the idea of becoming a pop star.
Now I’m a student of a lower secondary school and I already have a clear outline of my professional path. To start off my career I have to finish a secondary school and pass Matura exams with flying colours. I would like to go to a technical secondary school where I can gain professional knowledge and experience at the same time. Then, I would like to study food and nutritional science at the university to get a diploma in Dietetics. With a bachelor degree I will be able to work either in private practice or under contract with health care institution. I will strive hard to make my dream come true because I deeply believe that this job will give me a lot of satisfaction. I want to help people with eating disorders and provide nutrition and health advice for infants, children, adolescents and adults. By doing my job well, I will improve the quality of people’s lives and change their habits which will contribute to a better and happier world.

plore with enthusiasm and passion.
MY DREAM JOB Do no harm ! Wojtek Gierosz, Poland When I was a child I dreamt , as most of the boys do, of becoming a footballer, a national hero or a famous sportsman admired by millions. But as I was growing up my dreams were changing too. Under the influence of my experiences I changed the way of perceiving life. I noticed that it is the most precious and at the same the most fragile gift you were given at birth and that it should be cherished at every moment. I realized that my dream is to become a doctor.
I’m certain that this is the right career for me. I posses a lot of features of character which are essential in this profession. I am hard-working, responsible, sensitive to other people’s needs and I have nerves of steel which enables me to stay cool in any critical situation . What is more, I can show compassion, respect and empathy and this is what all patients want a physician to express. I perform well in science and have scientific interests which I ex-
I am only a teenager now and I am aware that there is a long and bumpy road to success in this profession. First I have to finish middle school and then go to a secondary school. There I will focus mostly on biology, anatomy, chemistry, physics and foreign languages such as English and Latin. Then I should study medicine at the university and choose the faculty. I’ve already decided to become a surgeon. I observed their work at the hospital where my little sister was operated on. She was diagnosed with a serious congenital heart disease. The surgeons saved her life then and they gained my respect and admiration. I feel through my experiences that the
role of the doctor is right for me. I want to pursue it with passion and make a difference in the lives of others. I will practice medicine ethically and honestly and act according to the Hippocratic oath. I will do my best to make my dream come true.

EMPLOYMENT STATUS IN LEPE
In Lepe there are exactly 3,443 unemployed of We wait for this situation to change soon and whom 1,726 are men and 1,717 are women. for the economy of Spain to improve. The highest number of unemployed is concentrated in the construction sector because many IES La Arbolesa (Lepe, Spain) houses were built without there being demand and which produced an oversupply. Along with construction other related sectors also collapsed: the electrical, plumbing and furniture sectors etc. Lepe is the biggest city after Huelva, the capital, so it provided its services to all the coastal areas around. Therefore, when the construction sector collapsed a higher number of unemployment occured. The majority of unemployed people don’t have any professional training and those with professional training search for work in other countries and emigrate. Curiously when you search for information on the internet, it appears that the highest number of unemployed is in the agriculture sector, but this is not totally accurate because this type of work only needs a workforce at certain times of the year. Agriculture is the principal economic activity of Lepe, followed by tourism, especially near summer. The government doesn’t help a lot to reduce the unemployment rate because it only provides some local development services, that have recently been stopped. 31
The sectors with more workers are the agriculture and tourism but this is only during the Cristina Alvarado and Sara Muriel, spring-summer season.

Interview with the owner of a furniture manufacture ‘MEBLECH’ headquartered in Kraszewice
How has your company developed and changed over the years?
by Daria Idzikowska, Poland When did you set up the manufacture? It was set up in 1974 . Why did you decide to start your own company? I wanted to break with the family tradition of running a farm. I observed the work of craftmen who did well those days. At that time all private initiatives were on a tiny scale with the notable exception of agriculture. The private sector was limited to little shops, stalls at open markets or bakeries, occasionally small-scale manufacturing. Working for myself gave me a sense of independence.
I started with a small upholstery company hiring five workers and as the years went by we have developed into a furniture manufacturer employing more than 50 people and offering training for students from the vocational schools . We offer a wide choice of services and products. Nowadays the company has transformed since the early days. Our plant is fully equipped with everything from traditional upholstery tools to state-of-the-art production machines allowing us the flexibility to create a wide range of designs. Production is mainly focused on household and institutional furniture and kitchen cabinet manufacturing. It’s still a family- run enterprise and my sons are now in charge of designing the products. To meet the
customers’ needs, they use modern computer software and the best quality wood. Company’s headquarter Lech Baś, the owner of the company MEBLECH

I’ve noticed that there are increasingly better skilled and educated young people on the job market looking for vacancies. 37
Do your employees know foreign languages?
position on the market.
Several employees, especially those in charge of sales and marketing speak foreign languages. This is extremely useful because we cooperate with shops and companies from abroad. However, it is not an essential skill for all my workers.
How is it to be your own boss? This job requires a lot of commitment, responsibility and ability to take risk. You constantly think about new strategies and its development. I spend a lot of time at work. On the other hand, I hold the control and I am independent.
Where do you sell your products? We sell our products in our own stores and through the network of retailers who cooperate with us. We also sell our furniture abroad, mainly in Italy, France and Germany.
What do you do in your free time? I try not to think about the business but it’s really difficult to focus on something else. Therefore I tend to take my family somewhere out for the weekend.
Inside the factory
What do you think of the future of the company? Thank you for the interview! We would like to increase our sales and invest in new machines. We have also diversified our activity and opened a sawmill and wood drying chamber. Generally, I’m optimistic about the future. Have the investments in your company paid off? Yes, of course. Thanks to new machines we managed to improve the quality, reduce the prices, become more competitive and strengthen our 38

‘production of wooden pallets’. After six years of the activity my plant developed and it was time for a change. I analysed various names but we came to the agreement with my family that BOREX suits best. In Polish the word BÓR – is an old way of naming a forest and EX I associate with export. How do you develop your company?
Why did you start your own company? I was unemployed and I couldn’t find anything interesting for me. I started the business 22 years ago and it was still a period of economic transformation in Poland and the emergence of capitalism. Having own business was the best I could do then.
Modern technology and equipment significantly influence its dynamic development. The company constantly improves its production and technological facilities. The automated manufacturing process allows for better control over delivery schedules and product quality. We invest in modern dryers and production lines for nailing pallets.
What is more, the company develops its own transport fleet, due to this all goods are always delivered on time. Moreover, we try to be a reliable partner to maintain good relations with our clients. We expand the export to other coWhy did you decide to produce wooden pal- untries in Western Europe. lets? My family owned a forest so I had my own source of wood. For this reason it didn’t require a lot of financial input. All I had to do was to focus on the papers, management and finding skilled workers.
How many workers do you employ ? At the moment there are 22 employees. Do you have friends among businessmen? The truth is that it is not easy to have a real friend in the same line of business. There is a What does the name of your company mean strong competition . However, I think that one and who invented it? should try not to have enemies. I started the business under a simple name 39

Katsouli & Sofia Kouroutzi, Greece
Who founded this business and when? This business was founded by my father. My father started it in 1956, selling products according to the needs of the time, such as stuffed vine leaves and spinach. What kind of products do you produce? “Palirria” is a large group of 3 production units, in China, Bulgaria and Greece. Each factory proI can’t give you a single recipe.

What is your key to success?
Thank you for your time and the interview!
Which countries do you get raw materials from?
The interview was carried out in December 2012 We try to source them from Greece, but it is not by Patrycja Fiłka as a part of a Comenius project always feasible. We try to find the best quality task. at the best prices. We get 60 % from Greece and 40% from foreign countries. 40

In which countries except for Greece do you export your products? We export our products all over the world, Europe, America and even Australia. The countries, in which we export most of our products though, are Germany, France and Italy. In general, wherever there are Greek communities. How many people work in your business?
Has your company got branches in foreign countries? There are two more factories, in China and Bulgaria. All factories work with the materials they have got, taking advantage of the products of each region. Over 950 people are employed in our group. In Greece we have got 120 employees, in Bulgaria 620 and in China 210. How many hours do your employees work in your business? The working hours are the same with those in other countries. There are night shifts, provided that there is a huge request for the quantities of our products. These hours apply for the section of production: from 7.30am to 3.15pm. However, the office assistants must work from 8.30am to 5.30pm to facilitate the communication with our factories abroad, because of the different time zones.
41
Is it easy for you to find free time, due to the big business, you are in charge of? First of all, I can not manage to handle such a big business alone and this is the secret of a successful business! I need to have the right collaborators in order to have progress! It is not so easy to have free time, but with the right organisation I can make it. I usually spend nine hours a day in my office and one in the section of production. To which extent is your business affected by financial crisis? Of course our business has been affected by the financial crisis, but not to a great extent because the goal of a business is to predict what will happen in the future. Luckily, our company had foreseen this crisis and that's why we tried to expand in foreign countries. For the sake of the production, there have been some layoffs.
Which thermal elaboration do the tins receive? There are two processes in our business, the pasteurization, which happens at a degree lower than 100o C and tries to conserve the pH firm so that the product can endure over time. The other process is the sterilization that happens at a degree higher than 100o C and tries to get away the bacteria. These procedures hold the least bacteria possible so that the production can be maintained.
Interview Spain
How do you start your professional career? I was working at the sea, in a fishing company and I started the company here because I didn't want to be any more time far from my family. Is it a family business? Yes, my brother and I started it together. Was the beginning in this world of Air Conditioning easy? To be honest, it was "easy" but we had to work very hard. Do you have people working with you? How many? What they do? Yes, we have 3 workers, an engineer who designs the installations, a fitter and a saleswoman. Dave you ever run any other company? Yes, I had another company before, an electro domestic company. Do you have more than one establishment? No, just one. Which has been the best period that you have ever had? Some years ago. During the year, when do you sell more? In the summer. What are your working hours? From 8 am to 2 pm and from 3 pm to 8'30 pm. Is it easy to be a boss? Sometimes it is and sometimes it’s not, because laying off workers is too difficult.

Polish teens like various clothes. Girls try to wear appropriately for the occasion. Boys do not care so much about appearance and even on special events wear casual clothes. However, young people often model on celebrities and keep up to date with the latest trends. On a normal day all students have to wear uniforms. They are navy blue sweatshirts (the same for boys and girls) with a round school emblem, which is sewn on the chest and orange T-shirts with the name of the school. The lower part of the uniform can consist of Fishing: draughts boat pit that were fish- anything ( jeans, skirts, and leggings). Our stuing near the coast (sardines and tuna) dents usually choose skinny jeans in different colours. From time to time ‘a colourful day’ is organized when everyone may go to school in normal clothes. It is always the last Friday of the month. At school celebrations elegant and simple clothes are required. Girls should wear white blouses and black or navy blue trousers or skirts to the knees. The shoes may be on low heels. Boys wear white shirts and ties and elegant black trousers. For these clothes cleaned shoes are a must. At school disco and for an evening out with friends teens wear loose and cool clothes. The most popular clothes among girls are jeans, skirts or dresses, T-shirts and jackets. Shoes can be low-heeled or high-heeled but above all, they must be comfortable. Girls pay attention to accessories which make them look stylish. Necklaces, earrings, bracelets are very popular among them. Sometimes they carry bags which contain the most necessary things. Boys, on the other hand, do not care so much about the appearance and usually wear jeans, checked shirts or plain T-shirts and sneakers. All in all, Polish teenagers dress comfortably and choose fashionable and trendy clothes which are also popular in other European countries. However, the clothes they wear highly depend on the weather conditions, individual style, occasions, and their school rules. Agata Cegiełka, Sylwia Bachor, Anna Karkoszka 44

Have you ever imagined living without water and electricity for any length of time? Just visualise it… no TV, no PC, mobile phone, lights, fridge… Even showering and drinking water is out of the question.
However if the world continues consuming these finite resources at this pace, there will surely come a day, when we will run out of them. We measured power and water consumption at home regularly and we concluded, well, to this… 49
LIGHT AND WATER CONSUMPTION IN LEPE Sara Muriel Iglesias and Rocío Domínguez García, IES La Arboleda - Spain People don’t know about their consumption of light and water, we have done an investigation of this information about people of our class, the Comenius People. We have calculated the average of the consumption. Here you have

heating and it consumes more energy. In summer the consumption increase a little bit because the temperature are so hot and we use the Water increase in winter’s season because the air conditioning, but we don’t spend so much temperature are colder than the other months energy than in winter because we don’t spend and for example, we spend more time when we are having a shower, and we pass more time in home because of the weather. In summer decrease the consumption of water because, we spend less time having a shower. And we pass more time in the beach, so we spend less water because we are not in our houses. Finally, we have done an average of all the results, and we can see that, generally we spend much time at home, because the majority are in more amount of water than light. the beach because Lepe is near the coast. This can cause a problem with the environment because, water, is a nonrenewable and if we spend a lot of water we can end with this reso-

Saving methods
Calculating and cutting down on the average energy use in a household. Electronic appliances come with energy labels to inform consumers about how much electricity they require. The cost to use that appliance can be determined from this label. In the example on this slide, the piece of electronics is rated at using 65 watts of electricity. If you used this appliance for one hour, it would use 65 watt-hours of electricity. Electricity is sold by kilowatt hour, so you would need to convert watts to kilowatts to determine the cost. If you used this appliance for two hours, it would use 130 watts of electricity (2 hours x 65 watts).
