I'm from Bulgaria. I work as a psychologist  in a school with children from 5 to 19 years old. In our school have children with other culture, language, customs. Sometime I feel, that I   do not have enough knowledge and skills to support the child in his difficulties at the school.]]> 2016-09-19 08:38:57 UTC https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/124654870 dkirovska https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/124657621  The topic is interesting for me because sometimes fail to support children who have problems and are from different cultural and linguistic environment. Often get conflicts between the institutions concerned and values of the family. And children are in the middle pressed.

The clash of cultures is inevitable, but you should always find those complementary points for constructive dialogue. I agree with opinion of three trainers that we need to change our views on migrants, different religions, cultures, policies.

They are an important part of informal learning and help me to see the problems in a global context. But there is more to desire as specifics.]]> 2016-09-19 08:54:34 UTC https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/124658068 dkirovska https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/124658154 I agree that the school is the main place to learn about different cultures, to develop tolerance and destruction of prejudice. It is very important the position of teachers and their responsibility and openness to the problem.

They have different customs, language and culture. Sometimes even leading their values are different. Few of them know education as a value. This makes it difficult to provide them with support.

Personally, I always want the kids to know each other, to try to find interesting things in the life and traditions of each ethnic group. International projects, even eTwinning projects are a great opportunity to cover more aspects of cultural diversity.

His parents should be calm about it. Very often, when a child does not speak Bulgarian, but does not understand what's going on in class, he becomes boring to him and began to spin disturbing other children. Sometimes it becomes aggressive and that others do not understand him. This already gives rise to behavioral problems.]]> 2016-09-26 11:45:11 UTC https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/126324684 dkirovska https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/126325235 I missed the webinar and I hope, that I will can to watch the recording :)]]> 2016-09-26 11:47:31 UTC https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/126325235 dkirovska https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/126325585 Surely I can say that our school has a sense of belonging and identity in a classroom. And this is due to the work of all teachers. But often I wonder if we really are able to respond to individual needs and the needs of children of different cultural backgrounds or insert them within the educational system?!]]> 2016-09-26 11:48:36 UTC https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/126325585 dkirovska https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/126325747 I wait ...,but I don't use Twitter]]> 2016-09-26 11:49:10 UTC https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/126325747 dkirovska https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/126326064 Development of empathy in students can talk when this process begin from early childhood development. The lessons of the diversity of other people are important from kindergarten and first grade. So less painful adjustment is provided to each child. So develop children's sensitivity, tolerance and empathy. ]]> 2016-09-26 11:50:18 UTC https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/126326064 dkirovska https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/126797497 http://learningdesigner.org/designer.php?uri=/personal/dkirovska/designs/fid/6c8914644cc005dda5d81103c62acb1bf2f1d40e842043f6595ca6149a1cbbdc]]> 2016-09-27 19:24:33 UTC https://padlet.com/dkirovska/ygfd7qnrpizi/wish/126797497
