Earth Hour 2019

Time for changing and  reflecting.

We should all change our way of living and think more about  the impact of our life style.

Social media......... listen and think about it

What do you think?  Is also  Italy polarized on Social Media?
Yes, we are polarized  on most social media  - FB but also  Twitter.
I have found hatre and voices  against  everybody, thinking that they are always  right.They want to tell everybody about it.

I feel we should all be open to listen  and  stop posting  what is  nonsense and  does not  respect the others.

Time is running out: we must preserve the Holocaust

I came across an interesting article online: you can listen to it online and I am going to use it with my students as I can work on the topic and on the language.

The issue of the many people who are now dying is a serious one: they are the voices from the past that remind us about what happened.

We should all continue their battle to remind the world that this happened and this might happen again and it has happened in some countries.

Climate Strike 15th March 2019 I do care!!

Thanks to the great voice of a sixteen year old Greta millions of people protested today to ask the world of adults to respect  our planet and the living creatures  inhabiting it:
I was inspired by her ideas and I appreciated her stubborness in choosing not to go to school- I am a teacher but I feel that  the young need to learn and think critically - they are our future!

This morning many students protested in Italy too and I think that it was a sign of awareness and citizenship: because we are all living in this world.

We cannot but work on ourselves and on the young so that our world can survive ! Time is running out!

We do all want to love our planet! It is our  world!

Have a nice Sunday - it is Spring time

I have been busy in the last weeks and a week ago we were in Barcelona with our students. Once back home I had to  rush and work at school.

Here in Italy spring has arrived and people are walking in the parks and running in many  paths.
When I get home after school I can smell the  spring in the air. Sometimes I feel tired, but I love the smell of the first violets and the sunshine!

"I affirm that the daffodil is my favourite flower. For the daffodil comes, not only before the swallow comes, but before all the many flowers of summer; it comes on the heels of a flowerless winter. Yes, a favourite flower must be a spring flower."
