PROGRAMME

What is ELaDiNa?
ELaDiNa (Early Language Development in Nature) is Erasmus+ KA2 Strategic partnership project (2021 – 2023), addressing the possibilities of developing and promoting language skills for children aged 3 to 7 in natural environments
. In recent years, nature-educational experience has been shown to have great potential to promote the linguistic development of children, potential which has thus far been neglected. When children are given the opportunity and space in natural environments, the curiosity of children can be aroused and acted upon, their imagination stimulated and their urge to move and fulfil themselves satisfied. These circumstances provide children with the chance to communicate intensively. The focus of the project was to recognize these opportunities and capitalize on them to help children learn and improve their language skills.

Main project intellectual outputs:

  • Generic model for early language development in nature
  • Training programme
  • Theoretical handbook
  • Practical handbook
