I work in a primary school near Rome. I teach science subjects like mathematics, science, technology, then also I teach an artistic matters, music. I love my job and I love my pupils, they give me inspiration and new ideas everyday.  I have many Romanian students in my classroom. I hope to learn a lot from this course.]]> 2017-02-24 21:21:53 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156148657 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156156074 All three colleagues referred to very important aspects.
For me the most important area is that of mutual respect, we can work with theater workshops.
The biggest challenge for me to become an intercultural competent teacher is to be able to include all pupils and parental involvement.]]> 2017-02-24 22:34:18 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156156074 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156188907 The main school office "Ettore Marchiafava"]]> 2017-02-25 14:42:51 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156188907 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156189471 The building where I work is called "Alessandra D'Angelo"]]> 2017-02-25 14:54:32 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156189471 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156190085 Miur (Ministry of Education): guidelines for the reception and integration of foreign students http://www.istruzione.it/allegati/2014/linee_guida_integrazione_alunni_stranieri.pdf]]> 2017-02-25 15:05:21 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156190085 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156202889 2017-02-25 18:42:14 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156202889 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156207665 The aspects that I think are very important are: to encourage empathy, think about others; the way through which to achieve these goals is the dialogue and debate. Another key issue is the resolution of conflicts in the classroom. In this regard I must point out an important conference that will address these issues and to which I will attend on March 4: "Litigare bene. Un metodo per aiutare gli alunni a gestire i litigi" (Know how to arguing well. One method to help pupils to manage their quarrels)]]> 2017-02-25 20:47:17 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156207665 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156207795 2017-02-25 20:50:51 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156207795 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156208203 Talk about cultural diversity in schools is very important, there are many students from all over the world with  different stories, with different cultures, they are very valuable to us. I believe that they are teaching us a lot to broaden our horizons. Teach students to accept cultural diversity in the classroom is to train tomorrow's citizens without any prejudice.]]> 2017-02-25 21:04:06 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156208203 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156209303 2017-02-25 21:31:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156209303 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156486437 I teach students aged 6-11 (primary school). I have for 85% of Italian students, 10% from Eastern Europe, 5% from India.
They present a poor background, they have made a few experiences, often their parents do menial work, manual jobs and very tiring.
They are well integrated into our small community: we live in a small town and they are involved in the festivities, in projects and in the school life of their children.
All we teachers have a positive relationship with them
generally the relationship between them is positive because they are often united by family relationship.]]> 2017-02-27 17:18:09 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156486437 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156663860 Both teachers offer interesting projects I have not tried yet.
In my class I propose workshop activities, music and songs from the countries of pupils, dramas.
Also we are implementing a project called "Grandparents tell."]]> 2017-02-28 10:33:21 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156663860 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156865970 I never taught language in my classes, I think these tips are very valid. I like "How to paint your language profile" proposed by Erica and if I were to teach the language I think I would start from this activity.]]> 2017-02-28 20:48:23 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/156865970 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/157268467 My school has some cultural differences, children do not feel different, They are joined each other regardless of their differences. In my school teachers work involving all classes and all children, since many years we approach to inclusive education through projects and theater and music workshops. Pupils sing or recite all together, we do theater with all classes and each student has a role, this makes all the same kids, everyone can express themselves through their preferred language: singing, acting, dancing, mimicry.]]> 2017-03-02 10:13:40 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/157268467 lauracasagrande68 https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/157750329 My lesson plan]]> 2017-03-03 22:41:46 UTC https://padlet.com/lauracasagrande68/ldxbj7sc3g37/wish/157750329
