         <description><![CDATA[<div>I teach at a primary school and my students are very young. I think that telling personal stories to the other classmates is the best way to create empathy and understanding among themselves, especially if any refugee is part of the class. Everyone has a special story and sharing it is a good way to feel undestood by the others.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I totally agree with Erika when she says that showing students the migrants' own life in the past and at a current time is the ideal way to make students feel empathy for these people. Showing then&amp;now pictures of  their countries of origin or just let them talk about their personal stories can arouse interest in such important issues and arise awareness in the students.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I'd rather use literature in my classroom, especially fot the elementary school students, as storytelling by an actual immigrant can cause distress and anxiety. Literature is a safe environment where subjects of capital importance can be discussed and at the same time students can comprehend facts or events. For older students, internet and documentation through internet or thoroughly screwtinised sites are to be used so that they get a really good idea of the difficulties theses people face.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<pre>There are practical exercises, videos, photographs and also concepts to understand. Here are some of these concepts.
1. Expulsion
An act of a state authority with the intent and effect of ensuring the removal of persons against their will from the territory of that state.
2. Integration
Integration is the process by which migrants and refugees are accepted in society. Integration depends on finding a balance between respect for the original cultural values ​​and the identities of migrants and refugees and the creation of a sense of belonging to the newcomers (based on acceptance of the main values ​​and institutions of the host community or country) . The integration process concerns all aspects of life in a society, and both newcomers and the host community play important roles.
3. Migrant
The term migrant is usually used to describe someone who makes a decision free to go to another region or country, often to have better material or social conditions and improve prospects for themselves and their families. People also migrate for several other reasons.</pre><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The activity proposed by Erika is very interesting and helps students know more about their new peers. In my class, there is a student from Sri Lanka. I found a book ( a simple tale) written in Sri Lanka language with Italian translation next to the way that Italian students could see and understand their new friend language and tradition.</div>]]></description>

If i would approach these themes in my class, i would insist to the reasons that forced these people to leave their countries. I want my students to have empathy and understand this option.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The variety of ethnic groups in the school is a wealth of outstanding educational value, and the starting point for an inclusive education: the coexistence of   different customs, religions and cultures creates specific problems that drive to a continuous search for new and more effective methods of intervention. I love music and I play different musical instruments. I think that a strategy for an  inclusion could be the creation of a multiethnic school choir.<br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>It's important to focus on migrants by selecting and treating differently each story or experience. Misery, poverty, danger, all these reasons must be discussed with them always by respecting their sensitivity and their susceptibility because they learned to be on the defensive. I found Erika's activities very very interesting and winning because it's a good opportunity to enlarge our knowledge on topics like: countries far from us, their geographic location, different habits and culture. Each of us to be a tourist who is discovering the previous Beauty of a "waste land". On the contrary I' m usually used to discuss in class about differences in cultures and invite students to create a small book to show habits, panoramas, cities and monuments of their native country. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>We read news paper articles.The topics we discuss or research are picked by the students themselves. This has led to many discussions about refugees.<br>We have discussed the reasons for my students leaving their homelands after they had been living in Germany for about six months. This is because they had to learn enough German to express themselves. The students from the war regions showed, before and after, pictures without being specifically asked to do so. They talked about where they came from enthusiastically. Many talked about the long treacherous journey and some about the greedy people who trafficked them into Europe.&nbsp;</div><div>The migrants from the Balkan countries, who have applied for asylum, do not talk about their homes or show pictures of their home towns. Many also do not talk about their journey to Germany. Some have talked about going from one country to the next applying for asylum.&nbsp;</div><div>One 13 year old girl, Albanian, has told the class that she was born in Greece, then went to Italy, France, Belgium, the Netherlands and is now in Germany. She speaks a little, French, Dutch, German and Arabic. She speaks Arabic better than German because her friends at school speak Arabic and she picks up languages quickly. Her mother and Father are 30 and they have never worked. The girl has six siblings. According to the girl her&nbsp; parents left Albania when they were 18 and have been going from one European Community country to the next since then. The siblings were mostly born in different countries. This migration story made everyone sad, because the girl has no "home".</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br>What intrigues more when you visit a foreign country, especially relating to a very different culture, are the customs, traditions, way of fun, music, art. All items typically find great success in young people: you could start from this, compare, create parallels between the interests of young people in the host countries and those of young migrants. You may discover a lot of contact points, and so much to share but also learn a lot of what is unknown to us and that is part of a culture, civilization. Perhaps you would find that we are more alike than you might think ...</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I know my approach is pretty plain and old-fashioned. However, there are some many literary texts which explore the reasons for leaving one’s familiar environment. Have your students collect suitable excerpts from books – they need some time to do research on that, but they will surely find examples. Have them present their excerpt in class – their presentation should focus on the country/-ies the&nbsp; story is set in, and they should reiterate/comment on the protagonists’ reasons for leaving their homes. This way you can make a collage of texts in class, and you can extract sets of similar reasons together with the students. After collecting those sets of reasons, let them compare these reasons with current statistical material and discuss the findings of this comparison in class. Maybe this approach is not as lively but in times when civilisation seems to feel apart a little world literature/heritage cannot hurt.</div>]]></description>

Especially comparing pictures of countries from now and then, cultivates the empathy of pupils.<br>Below there are two useful links with activities addressing the matter of refugees to students. The first is derived from the "International Amnesty" and presents 8 educational resources with interactive activities, games etc. to better understand the refugee crisis. The second is derived from the "Choices program" presenting an interesting way to address such issues by "Teaching with the news". It provides online curriculum materials and lessons to connect the content of the classroom to the headlines in the news. For example: "Refugee stories:Mapping a crisis" which includes activities for students.

I absolutaly agree on the necessity of making our students feel involved in the lives and stories of migrants: they should become familiar with their world and become aware of what they were forced to leave, in order to survive or&nbsp;look for a better life.&nbsp;Getting to know&nbsp;somebody's story and see them not only as MIGRANTS but as people&nbsp;in&nbsp; their different dimensions not only makes us aware of their situation, it also makes us empathic, and if we can feel how they feel, maybe we can give up all foolish ideas of barriers and walls to keep migrants away.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I agree with Erica's suggestions. I think I would show my class the vídeo " If London Were War Torn Syria", and we would make a roleplay " What if it happened here, what would you do? What would you take with you? ". We also would read the poem "Take my coat" <br>You take some clothes, a book,
<br>the love inside you
&nbsp;of people that you have to leave
&nbsp;behind you
<br>you take a pair of shoes and a t-shirt
<br>a photo of a memory
<br>to keep it
<br>&nbsp;

<br>And now that everything is gone
<br>and you need hope to carry on
<br>&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<br>Take my coat
<br>put my arms around you
<br>t’will keep you warm
<br>and my memory right beside you
<br>take my coat
<br>and remember whatever
<br>you may face
<br>you’ll have my embrace.
<br>&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<br>Courage, hope, love, determination
<br>are things i’ve packed into
<br>one of your pockets
<br>just reach inside you’ll see you have nothing
<br>to hide
<br>and when you’re strength seems far
<br>and gone
<br>I hope my coat will make you strong
<br>remember you’re much more than this
<br>don’t hesitate to hold me…
<br>&nbsp;
<br>Take my coat
<br>put my arms around you
<br>t’will keep you warm
<br>and my memory right beside you
<br>take my coat
<br>and remember whatever
<br>you may face
<br>you’ll have my embrace.

Now people daily living with war immages and news. People are used to see and listen about that.<br>Working in a primary school I think that the only thing that I can do i to talk, to inform about human crimes.<br>Children (specially) must be <br>protected from cruelty seen and endured but nevertheless they must know the reality and learn to cohabitation and mutual respect.</div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Erika's advice are very helpful. My idea is a role play: every student is a migrant with a story that he/she has to share giving details: like personal belongins during the journey, if they have relatives, what they left at home, feelings etc. Then it can be asked to students to pack their bags with the essential things and asked them: what is really important to you? What you can't give up?</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Do you have any other ideas how to address the topics or origins and reasons for leaving with your students?<br>Erika's ideas are really interesting especially pic's comparison and the touristic plan organization.<br>First of all I would start from a brainstorming about the world "migrant". So we would discuss with the pupils about the many kinds of migrant, worker migrant, asylum seeker, refugee etc.<br>Then i will present some datas about the countries from which migrants come. Then students could start a wequest&nbsp; for obtaining informations about these countries.<br>A good idea could be working on empathy. Each student could make a search about a country and then present it to the class as he was an embassador from that country.</div>]]></description>
