At the moment I'm teaching to children about 10 years old. This year I have a new student in my classroom. He come  from Romania, he is gipsy and he is 12 years old. He is starting to write, speak Italian and calculate. He is never been at school before.

I would like to know His traditions (for example his birthday, His celebrations, etc.) to try to include him in the classroom.

Now we can’t complainourself, built shameful walls and close the doors to desperate people who lived like us.

Until we think only to our benefit, poor people will continue to flee Their country to save himself and try to change the lives of Their children (employment, health, education, freedom, ...)]]> 2017-03-29 17:21:45 UTC https://padlet.com/valebell80/7fdaee8lvjzu/wish/163497142 Who are newly arrived migrants? valebell80 https://padlet.com/valebell80/7fdaee8lvjzu/wish/163507940 Working in Primary school I can observe that migrants come from north Africa and east Europe.
I am very happy that parents enroll their children at school. This means that parents want integrate own family  in the new country.
It’s very important to make immediately an inclusive teaching, to help newly arrived migrants and to raise awareness and develop empathy for Italian students.

The integration is increasingly difficult and increasing episodes of intolerance.
For example in 2016 Residents of a neighborhood have not wanted to accept a Moroccan family.
Unfortunately in Italy There is still afraid of the Different, there isn’t empathy.

For example in Rome the number of asylum seekers was 3.759 in the year 2016.

But they one day we were speaking about celebrities and someone spoke about Donald Trump.
It was very curious but many of them were against the policy of Trump to build a wall with Mexico. Surely they had heard this information from Their parents. I was very impressed but i think That this is even possible Because America and Messico are very far from us. I have not ever faced the discourse of immigrants in Italy and Europe.]]> 2017-04-04 17:59:15 UTC https://padlet.com/valebell80/7fdaee8lvjzu/wish/164696050 Finding external partners valebell80 https://padlet.com/valebell80/7fdaee8lvjzu/wish/164705605 I searched on internet some projects between school and NGOs that Care refugees. I found many project so I think it's not difficult to find in Rome refugees who want tell Their personal histories to students to help eliminate prejudice.
For ex. with collaboration of Centro Astalli EVERY year the students have the chance to Listen Direct testimonies of men and women who have lived the experience of exile.]]> 2017-04-04 18:26:35 UTC https://padlet.com/valebell80/7fdaee8lvjzu/wish/164705605 Activities - Origins and Reasons for Leaving valebell80 https://padlet.com/valebell80/7fdaee8lvjzu/wish/164922496 I found this website

I agree with Alicia that teachers should be proactive, explain the role of social media and difference between a "fake" and true information.
