https://padlet.com/flyvale/idbcowpvnu8y Notes from my classroom en-us 2017-03-03 15:57:22 UTC 2017-03-03 22:46:55 UTC hello@padlet.com flyvale https://padlet.com/flyvale/idbcowpvnu8y/wish/157650506 I'm teaching italian, history and geography at the secondary school . I talk with my students about a lot of concepts, I love to speak with them! In order to help all students to participate in the dialogue I use the Internet resources: firstly, iconographic material (photographs, paintings, cartoons) and I translate the name of the objects; then, if they don't  speak English, I translate simple texts  with google translator in their language. I often find videos on youtube  without words (or with a few easily translatable phrases) that convey important meanings. ]]> 2017-03-03 15:59:22 UTC https://padlet.com/flyvale/idbcowpvnu8y/wish/157650506 flyvale https://padlet.com/flyvale/idbcowpvnu8y/wish/157738238 I don't have refugees in my classroom, but students sons of migrants, one from Marocco, one Sinti. Sometimes we talk about their origin countries, their traditions, their food or drink.. I think this is important for their italian friends know about their world,, because it help emphathy.
 One hour a week, we read a book to produce in my students a reflection about the life of migrants .]]> 2017-03-03 20:42:46 UTC https://padlet.com/flyvale/idbcowpvnu8y/wish/157738238
