Going back to school during a global pandemic by Rosemary https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5 Are you happy to be at school or would you rather have on line classes? en-us 2018-02-11 19:19:15 UTC 2023-06-03 20:40:07 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f33b.png Going back to school during a global pandemic alessialuongo2004 https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/807320276 With the start of a new school year when the COVID-19 pandemic is still in full swing, the situation is very difficult.

From my point of view, face-to-face lessons are totally different from online lessons because with face-to-face lessons you can ask the teacher to repeat or further explain something you don't really understand in real time and you can also share Doubts with your schoolmates but if our health is involved it is essential to make sacrifices: the future is in our hands!

For me this period has been very hard because if we are not really careful, our life could change drastically from one day to the next and this is worrying and also irritating but if we really want to overcome it we must respect every safety rule by wearing our face masks and washing our hands often: unity is strength!

When we are in class, it is obligatory to wear a mask, to disinfect our hands often, to stay one meter away and not to exchange objects or snacks. I am happy to be back at school and to have met my classmates and teachers, but i am also worried because the infections are rising and we are more at risk. For this, we must always respect the rules because we can get infected and mix it with other people. In this period we hear a lot of discussion on the new about whether it was better to continue online lessons or face to face. I prefer to be back at school because with online lessons it can happen that sometimes the internet doesn't work and in presence the explanation of the teachers are better understood. ]]> 2020-10-06 16:31:17 UTC https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/807422732 https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/807468267  I think that going back to school with the pandemic still underway is very complicated.  From my point of view, face-to-face lessons are better than online ones because you can reconnect social relations with others and maybe it is easier to follow the lesson and ask for explanations on topics you did not understand.  I think everyone knows that it is a difficult situation but with respect for the rules such as wearing a mask, washing hands, keeping the meter away we could continue to go to school.

Seeing so many people with their faces covered by a mask and always being careful not to exceed the limit and follow the needed precautions, is sad but necessary. Personally I am happy to go back to school even if in these conditions, having done online lessons was nice but going back to class is different.
 This situation makes me feel also lonely, for me like every teenager is important having some kind of contact with a person, especially if it's important to you. Not having it, not being able to socialize with classmates, makes you feel far from everyone and everything. I just hope that everything ends as soon as possible and in the least sad way possible.
 But until then it is important to follow the rules and I understand that, not only for me but for my friends and family and all the most vulnerable people.]]> 2020-10-06 18:15:22 UTC https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/807903472 https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/807927200 I’m scared and I’m worried about the Covid-19 pandemic because infections are on the rise.A new lockdown would be a disaster for the economy and for us students.I’m against online lessons because it’s important to socialize at school with our classmates and to develop social skills.We can hardly do that from behind the screen.Therefore,we have to live with the virus while waiting for the vaccine to arrive.We have to respect the rules:social distance of at least six feet,wear face mask indoors and outdoors,wash hands often and caugh and sneeze into our elbows. If we are all united and responsible, everything will be fine and we may soon be back to normal.

I’m very happy to going back to school because I can meet again my classmates and now every morning we are together.
In my opinion, another important aspect of face to face lessons is that I can follow teachers’ explanations better and I can ask them to explain something that I don’t really understand.
Furthermore taking lessons from home is very boring for me because I can’t interact as well as I do in class and above all I have to stay all the time in front of the computer or the tablet screen.
On the other hand, going back to school means risking my and other students health and so we all must rispect the rules to limit the spread of covid-19 like wearing face mask, staying a meter of distance from other students and teachers.
I’m also worried about this situation but I think that if we all rispect the rules and we are careful, we will be able to continue to study in the classroom. - Chiara De Angelis

I'm very happy about this because, according to me, it was more difficult to study and learn new things with online lessons and I also think it's more beautiful to stay in class with my friends. Online lessons also had some positive aspects of course: we colud stay at home, with the pajama, maybe having breakfast and without wearing face masks. On the other hand, when we go to school we have to respect several rules to prevent coronavirus and this makes me also feel anxious sometimes, but at the same time these rules are very important to protect ours and the other's healt. All I'm hoping is that this situation will be over as soon as possible and we'll all come back to our normal lives.]]> 2020-10-06 18:51:01 UTC https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/808047903 leonealberto5 https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/808149690 My opinion of covid-19
Nowadays in Italy but especially in Campania the are many cases of covid-19. In my opinion in this moment is very important ti respect the imposed rules. The rules are: wear a face mask, respect the social distance thai si one meter, sanitize your hand often and coughing on the arm. The school are open  from 1st october and there is a tough regulation. The situation is not the best but but we hope it will be resolved soon.- Luca Leone ]]> 2020-10-06 19:21:24 UTC https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/808149690 Going back to school during a global pandemic- Narcisa narcisa7marina6 https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/808237907 2020-10-06 19:50:50 UTC https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/808237907 After so many postponements of the reopening of the school finally a few days ago all of us students returned to class. We have had to adopt rules which are fundamental in this period. Finally, in our schools there are more rules and this makes us even better citizens. We found ourselves in a totally different classroom where the desks are one meter away from each other, at the entrance of the school to give us a good morning is the thermoscanner that indicates our body temperature which cannot be higher than 37.5. We often have to disinfect our hands and absolutely wear the mask that has now become our best friend. I am very happy that I started school again. Even though I loved taking lessons from home in my pajamas, I missed waking up early in the morning to go to school. Following the teacher live as he explains is different, in my opinion much more efficient, at home being behind a screen I had many more distractions and I could not concentrate. On the other hand, however, I am also very worried because there are irresponsible guys who are gathering and all this attention that many of us have is useless. I am very worried about the health of the weakest, like my grandparents who cannot afford to get this virus. I hope this situation ends as soon as possible. ilepag04 https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/808264123 2020-10-06 20:00:36 UTC https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/808264123 citarellagiorgia https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/808317617
A few days ago a new school year began. Even if the situation is complicated and difficult, finally we are in class. In my opinion face to face lessons are better then online lessons and I like them more. Online lessons were tiring and boring. Conversely in class you can follow with more attention, you can ask anything you don’t understand and you can interact. 
Furthermore I am very happy because I’ve met my classmates again; all together we have a lot of fun. But going back to school is also a risk for our health and above all for the health of people that belong to risk group. In fact we have to be careful and respect the rules if we want to continue studying in class and if we want to reduce the spread of Covid-19. I’m worried and I hope this situation can end as soon as possible.

Everything is different from last year, I can see my friends but I can’t touch them, hug them or sit next to them, unfortunately there isn’t that freedom of movement like before. Going back to school is very important because school is not just about studying but it’s also about socialization and comparison. From an educational point of view, face to face mode is certainly better than online lessons. The only thing I miss from the period of the lockdown is having lessons in my pajamas but besides that what you learn at school cannot be compared to what you learn behind a screen. While on the one hand I am happy to be back at school, on the other I am sad because I can no longer go to my grandparents house because I need to protect them from a possible risk of Covid. I am not afraid for myself but I am afraid for my parents and my grandparents, who are more fragile. I hope that a vaccine will be found soon and that we will be able to get back to living without social distancing because we are human and as such we need to be able to be together without any limits.]]> 2020-10-06 20:26:21 UTC https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/808331201 https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/808368831 Matteo Galietti
COVID 19 changed all the world.So olso the school as been influenced by it in the last months.For my experience i think going to school is better than online classes.Firstly because there should be a contact between students and teachers.In this way you can understand all the other’s feelings.Then at school you may stay with your friends and the lessons will be more funny and easier to follow,so we could be more careful and we’ll study better.Moreover going to school may be a first important step to come back to our normal lifestyle.
Naturally we must respect all the rules to reduce the spread of the virus.

On the other hand, it is necessary to respect the rules to avoid further infections. I’m a little bit scare and at the same time tired because I would return to the normality as soon as possible. The schools are obliged to provide for the safety and health of all school staff. We must respect all the rules that must be respect; for example: we must wear facemask, we must disinfet/wash our hands for at least 30 seconds. We must respect social distancing from the others of at least one meter, we cough or sneeze in our elbow or in a tissue and throw it away as soon as possible. We must be very careful to respect these rules, for ourselves and for others; our future depends on the choices we make today -Azzurra]]> 2020-10-06 21:28:11 UTC https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/808456347 https://padlet.com/rosariapisaniello/mep28repy6f5/wish/809905368 In this uncommon time the return of students in schools is a very controversial topic. After some months of online lessons we have to came back in the classroom, because learning and studyng face to face with a teacher is much better than learning and studyng from a laptop screen, moreover some students don't even have electronic devieces (like a comptur or a tablet) or a good internet connection. In our school this new year started in october, later than usual; we must wear face masks in class, we must clean our hand with a disinfectant and desks are separeted by at least one meter. In conclusion come back to school is a risk but it's very important for us, so respecting rules, kepping your distance and with many sacrifices we can pass this year.

Firstly on tv , I was only hearing about this virus, which spread like wildfire and it was now almost impossible not to be infected. Fortunately, my grandparents live in my own home therefore we could see each other every day. However  the restrictions that forced me to stay at home were terrible. I couldn't do anything and when I went out it was to do shopping for home with my mom. By the way in all this situation,the positive side of the lockdown was that it was possible to spend a lot of 
time with my family. To sum up I hope there won't be another lockdown because staying home without being able to move is crazy
