The area of Vrbovec is marked by specific local speeches that are still well preserved in the daily speech of its inhabitants. Tradition and customs are still not completely lost. In order to show students the importance and value of the above, the project „Speech Heritage of Vrbovec“ was designed and implemented in class teaching. The contents prescribed by the outcomes of the curricula in question were expanded and interconnected, precisely in the way that the practice of integrated teaching presupposes. The project was implemented through teaching subjects of the Croatian language, Fine Culture, Music Culture and Nature and Society. The aim was to make the students aware of the difference between the standard Croatian language and the kajkavian dialect, as well as the differences between the kajkavian speeches themselves and the speeches of individual places in the Vrbovac area. It was also desired to examine the extent to which students are important to preserve the spoken heritage of the homeland and whether they would like to learn more about the speech and speech heritage of their region in school. In the theoretical part of this work, the regional stratification of the Croatian language into dialects, dialects and local speeches is first presented. Then it describes Vrbovec, the speech and its speaking heritage. Finally, the project itself is displayed. The implementation of the project was divided into 4 days, with 4 different themes: children's games of Vrbovec, children in the customs of Vrbovec, Vrbovec short and long stories, and writing a joint poem in the Vrbovec's Kajkavian dialect. With this project, students achieved all the expected outcomes, became aware of the importance of Vrbovec's speech and speech heritage, and noticed the difference between standard Croatian language and local speeches. It turned out that students have found out how extremely important spoken heritage of homeland is and that they would like to learn more about it in school. As one of the results of the project, a joint student song was created about the importance and preservation of the Kajkavian dialect speech and Vrbovec itself, called „Kaj is our homeland“.
