THE BEST OF ALLEGRO

People with learning disabilities in Nottingham, England enjoy singing, ‘I can see clearly now,’ in French and La Bamba.

"The whole of Europe is interested in us".
Learners from Schotten Reha, Germany

Two and three-year-olds, at a parent and toddler group in Nottingham, England, take part in Spanish games and dancing, eat tapas and have their faces painted with the Spanish flag.

ALLEGRO has been the recipient of three European Quality Labels,in France, in Slovenia and in the UK.

In the Zarja Institute, Slovenia, participants recovering from head injuries have learned English, German, Italian and Spanish.

 

MAJOR ACHIEVEMENTS IN GERMANY
It was great motivating our pupils to take part in this project despite their bad memories of their school days. One of the high points was the Allegro meeting in 2004 at Schotten Reha. This was not only important for the organisation but even more so for the participants. As they saw it, “The whole of Europe is interested in us”. It was exciting to develop teaching materials with the participants and to find a way of applying the new language methods. The aim of learning 150 items of vocabulary was achieved and in several cases exceeded. The self-esteem and the self-confidence of all participants has been significantly raised. Their fear of failure is no longer present. During the project they have developed a great willingness to learn, and they can now transfer this willingness to many areas of their lives.
