Moreover, we managed to have a responsible and balanced behaviour, even though lots of people provoked us. This activity helped us to be more united as we had to plan some team strategies and it was very important to overcome some difficulties, such as the shyness. ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224063654 2021-02-21 20:09:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224063654 Student Reflection: 7 Consider the ethical implications of their actions: Greta P: Although it should be almost a duty in a relatively rich country as ours to help poorer countries, few were willing to help. It would help us all not only because of human ethics but also financially, and also with illnesses: Containing diseases, making them vanish and creating potential future trades with these countries. ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224068290 2021-02-21 20:12:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224068290 7 Samuele L: People were most of the time trying to ignore me. Some exceptions were the old ladies, who would often donate. I think this is because old people know what poverty and diseases truly are. There was also a moment in which one mid-aged lady came to us thanking for what we were doing and giving us tips. I didn’t go there because I was obliged, I went there because I believe something good can happen, and that if the society starts to think in a new-caring way, the world situation could twist into a better one. ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224076150 2021-02-21 20:17:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224076150 1 • become more aware of their own strengths and areas for growth Sofia T: During the activity I learned something about myself;I learned that I'm more patient than I thought,indeed I was expecting from myself to shout and be mad at the first person who was rude to me,but instead I didn't because I understood that it wasn't the right thing to do,so I just ignored rude people.I asked for money politely even if people were rude to me. ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224078862 2021-02-21 20:18:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224078862 5 ° work collaboratively with others Francesco B: I think the activity is very important because saving the lives of people that suffer a lot is intelligent and caring. Two important values that I have learned are collaboration and challenge because they are two crucial elements in the future, these things have to be taught now so that when you grow you are able to perform them well. Although many people ignored us, I tried to make an effort and at the end I felt happy and proud to have helped an showed support people who suffer from leprosy. ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224091824 2021-02-21 20:26:49 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224091824 MYP4/5 Beach Sweep ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224109200 2021-02-21 20:37:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224109200 ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1224109566 Annual Park Clean-up

The Christmas Tombola is organized every year towards the beginning of the Christmas holidays. This event has now become a tradition for MYP4 students: everyone can buy one or more tombola’s cards and try to win one of the many prizes at stake! Also, the money that is spent to buy cards is given to the Community of Sant’Egidio! Students remark that “everyone enjoys playing tombola” and that this activity is considered “one of the most entertaining C&S activities” because it makes them “consider a new perspective, which is being able to donate money to charity and help people in difficulty by playing and having fun”.]]> 2021-02-22 19:47:12 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1228449743 CALAM Day report ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1228462322 The history and importance of this event is detailed here....]]> 2021-02-22 19:49:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1228462322 Myp1 and Primary School- Banca degli Occhi Lottery Sale for Research into Eye Transplants ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1228499623 This article, from 2017, shows how the school, for over 5 years now, has involved MYP1 and the Primary school in the sale of lottery tickets to neighbours; learning how to overcome shyness and try to convince people politely that students are raising money for a valuable cause; giving people their sight.]]> 2021-02-22 19:57:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1228499623 Student Reflections ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1228537671 1) I sold 10 tickets of the lottery to my neighbours with my friend Margherita. 
I liked this activity because I met new people that live 20 m from my home. 
The proceeds will go to Banca degli Occhi.



Description and Goals

Selling tickets for a good reason, such as this one, made it pretty easy to sell all the ones I was given. I would have not made it if it wasn't for my parents. My dad sold a lot of them to his colleagues and friends (and one of them won a computer) but I did a great job as well selling my tickets to grandparents and all family members. Thanks to this activity, I discovered a new skill that I never thought I had: I am a good seller, I am good at persuading people to buy what I offer them! I firstly challenged myself to sell the two ticket booklets that I was given. Not only I succeeded, I sold more than those two!

Learning Outcomes:Consider the ethical implications of their actions ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1231310245 Two weeks ago I went with my family to the Sant'Egidio Community to serve dinner to the homeless people. 
This activity helped me understand that thanks to Covid a lot of people lost their homes and have no longer money to eat nor to live under a roof. Helping other is a simple action that everybody can do which can change the life of a person.]]> 2021-02-23 13:36:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1231310245 Student Reflections ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1231333449 myp1
In MYP1 with Miss Marzolo we painted benches in Villa croce, this was an interdisciplinary unit with English, and in both subjects we worked on how to apply paint to surfaces while learning new vocabulary. I can say for sure that it was a good experience and seeing the bench we painted always makes me really happy and proud.]]> 2021-02-23 13:41:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1231333449 American Women's Bazaar ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1231347229 Every year Mrs Rice invites MYP volunteers to come and help at one of her activity areas, painting faces or making games for younger children so their parents can tour the Bazaar, giving more to charity.

In MYP1 I cooperated in the Christmas Bazaar with Mrs Rice. I remember arriving in the morning and helping set up all the little "games" and attractions for the kids and teens who would be coming a few hours later. It had been very nice to be able to help Miss Rice and have fun at the same time, being with my friends and trying a brand new experience.]]> 2021-02-23 13:44:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1231347229 MYP4 Cooking for the homeless ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1231373998 We started during the pandemic lockdown to cook cakes every Monday until now to give to poor people to be eaten through Sant'Egidio community.]]> 2021-02-23 13:49:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1231373998 Perseverance:We were divided in small groups of, more or less, nine people divided in different times. I was in the group from quarter past ten to half past eleven. Mr. Ebury gave to every group of 3 people a bib of the school, some flyers on leprosy and a container to collect money; we also had a big billboard on leprosy to put on the point of reference where we were. The weather was a bit cold but we endured continuing smiling and screaming: “Donate some money to leprosy patient” or “Would you like to help leprosy patient?”.Some people were not very educated and they even insulted us saying that leprosydoes not exist anymore; indeed others were very gentle and interested in this seriousdisease and they gave us lots of money.I think that this activity had a very important meaning and I am enthusiast to havedone it. Hope we can do it another time ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1237396956 2021-02-24 17:10:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1237396956 On the 25th of January 2020, me and my classmates went in Via ventisettembre to collect moneyfor Calam. This experience was, initially, very scary because I was scared of what peoplemight say. Although my fear disappears when we arrived there. In general the experiencewas very fun, also because I had my friends, but I also learned something. Not everybody isnice to you, and you should just ignore people who ignore you. The thing that will forever beon my mind is this old lady that passed by us. We were repeating the same sentences: “Hiwould you like to donate some money blah blah blah”. She ended up giving some moneyand we said: “ thank you, you could really change things”. She answered with: “ you are ourfuture, you will be the ones changing things, thank you”. It was sweet and also verythoughtful. In conclusion I think it is a very innovative things for schools to raise money, andI’m proud to be in a school that does raise money for a disease. ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1238429397 2021-02-24 20:39:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1238429397 Clean up your classroom ebury3 https://padlet.com/ebury3/Bookmarks/wish/1238487446 February 19, 2020 4:10 PM
