Anually, during the hot summer months of July, August, and September, a large amount of the city’s narrow streets gain colorful umbrella canopies that provide shade for the pedestrians passing through. ]]> 2019-11-22 10:45:29 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/415177659 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/416606828 The project has been developed by Umbrella Sky Project of the firm Sextafeira Produções, who are dedicated to creating numerous urban installations using low-cost concepts.]]> 2019-11-26 11:38:06 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/416606828 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/416610917 This project has been in countries besides Portugal like Norway, France, and Spain.]]> 2019-11-26 11:52:33 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/416610917 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/416613867 2019-11-26 12:01:54 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/416613867 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/416614739 2019-11-26 12:04:45 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/416614739 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417506582 The umbrellas canopies floating in the air are a metaphor. This metaphor explains us that many differents races could live in the same comunity (all the umbrellas have a different colour) and all together could make our comunity better and more special as the umbrellas canopies provide a new look to Águeda's streets.
Meanwhile, the creators developed their project in other cities and countries. They chose these countries because they have a large number of different races and they also make these people feel respected and belonged. ]]> 2019-11-28 14:35:49 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417506582 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417510344 In this Padlet, we will talk about a famous umbrella patchwork.
First of all, we will explain what the Umbrella Sky Project is, where we can find it and who are the artists behind it.
Then, we will show you how this project would look in our own school.
Finally, we will share with all of you our points of view on the subject.]]> 2019-11-28 14:46:31 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417510344 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417514217 2019-11-28 14:58:43 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417514217 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417515998 2019-11-28 15:05:10 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417515998 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417517052 We may have different religions, diferrent languages, different coloured skin, but we all belong to one human race.]]> 2019-11-28 15:08:56 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417517052 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417599739 Experiecing different cultures is one of the the best things a human being can do.]]> 2019-11-28 21:38:24 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417599739 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417600259 2019-11-28 21:42:24 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417600259 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417601193 Being different is great because we are all unique and special.]]> 2019-11-28 21:51:29 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417601193 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417601284 If we were all the same without diversity, the world would be boring.]]> 2019-11-28 21:52:28 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417601284 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417753810 Beauty has its colour in diversity , has its movement in freedom and has its hope shining through equality.]]> 2019-11-29 12:41:45 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417753810 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417759068 We also consider that multiculturalism and the diversity of people should be one of the pillars of our society.
Futhermore, education could help to change our world making it more tolerant and increasing the acceptance between different races. Therefore, this project in our school definitely will contribute for students to have a different perspective of this issue.]]> 2019-11-29 13:00:41 UTC https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417759068 guilhermerodriguesteves https://padlet.com/guilhermerodriguesteves/ilutbyr31ysv/wish/417772594 Now you all know what this amazing creative project is, where in the world you could find it and who are the brainiacs behind it.
In addition to that, we showed you a realistic sketch made by ourselves and explained how we would install such patchwork in our own school and how it would promote issues such as respect, tolerance and difference.
Lastly , we provided you phrases written by us adressing those particular issues we mentioned earlier on.

We would install it in the begging facing the "catwalk" as we call it for people to get a better view of the umbrellas and for aesthetic purposes also (all measurements needed are stated in the sketch above). 
This all will be supported by metal ropes both vertically as well as horizontally to prevent the umbrellas from moving around and even from falling to the ground.
