Love yourself-erasmus+

Love yourself-The human body-Class: 6th (11-12 years old)-History, Music and Arts.
Regarding the subject “the human body” we decided to occupy ourselves with the ideal of the female beauty throughout centuries and to concentrate especially in the historic period of the Renaissance. We studied paintings of famous artists, such us Raphael, Sandro Boticeli and Michelangelo.
Examining the representation of the female body we noticed that the standards of the ideal body differentiate from time to time. We also noticed that what today is considered ugly, was once the ideal and the average standard.
We discussed that each person is unique and beautiful exactly the way he/she feels good with oneself. We expanded the discussion in both genders and came to the conclusion that the type of the body shape, the color of the skin, the weigh, the height or other special body characteristics aren’t so important as the mental and physical health. We named the approach: Love yourself”

The aim of the whole project is for the students to enhance the self – confidence and feel good about themselves. This is very important, as they are children in the beginning of puberty. We also tried to enhance empathy and co operation.
Connection with the school subjects of History, Music and Arts.

Teacher: Tonia Skoula
