One of the things I love most about this particular library is that children have a large and vast collection of books depending on their age and their areas of interest. Furthermore, librarians speak to them as if they are already grown-ups who can definitely choose for themselves the book they want to read. No kid is forced to even try and read a book if he or she does not want to.]]> 2016-12-11 12:06:51 UTC https://padlet.com/ioana_macra/ku1pq8a5722d/wish/142985122 WE LOVE SPORTS ioana_macra https://padlet.com/ioana_macra/ku1pq8a5722d/wish/142985150  |  Local Soccer team- juniors | Known as ‘UTA”, the local soccer team has an impressive stadium in the centre of the city, where both adult and junior teams have their daily practise.]]> 2016-12-11 12:07:28 UTC https://padlet.com/ioana_macra/ku1pq8a5722d/wish/142985150 CAPTURING SMILES ioana_macra https://padlet.com/ioana_macra/ku1pq8a5722d/wish/142985186  | Jigovan photography is one of the most influential and searched couple of photographers in our small city.

More than that, writers often come here and are excited to meet their readers, answer their questions and even take a picture with them. Occasionally, they also host events dedicated to children, storytelling and innovative discussions. ]]> 2016-12-11 12:09:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ioana_macra/ku1pq8a5722d/wish/142985269 WHO SAID I'M NOT A PRINCESS? ioana_macra https://padlet.com/ioana_macra/ku1pq8a5722d/wish/142985294 In our town, we have this amazing place where children can take so many lessons depending on their areas of interest, from gymnastics to ceramic, from informatics to theatre.

The things that we intend to sell would be 100% made by the pupils.
-which means we would have another fun day at school- trying to do beautiful works or art decorations to sell. Every child can use his or her imagination in this project, even if they want to do something that remembers them of their past, or something representing their dreams.

Then, we can all discuss about what to invest the money in. the best part in all this project is that pupils and parents are both included, and even having the Christmas theme we intend to, words and language will not be an issue anymore. It is demonstrated that especially children have the ability to quickly learn and adapt to new situations. My idea of helping them learn the language is not to focus on this particular issue, but to bring them together as often as I can and have them socialise continually. ]]> 2016-12-11 12:14:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ioana_macra/ku1pq8a5722d/wish/142985497 TRUST ME!
