In the next period of
our work we did a lot of things. Firstly, our teacher went to Romania. When she
came back, she showed us footage of the trip, e. g. recordings of the other
teachers and their introductions. She talked a lot about what is going to happen
and how our visits are going to look like. As a bonus, she gave us Romanian sweets!
Also, we assigned who is
going where – I, for example, am going to Hungary.
Our teacher explained in
detail what the rights we are going to work on are and what they mean to every one
of us – the right to a family and the right to freedom. Despite those being a
pretty broad topic, I’m sure we’ll be able to make something.
For example, my class was
divided into two groups and given the task to write a poem about the rights.
One group wrote about the right to freedom, and mine wrote about the right to
family. Whilst the other group wrote a serious and quite symbolic poem, we
wrote a light-hearted and easygoing one. Those poems will be rewritten in the
computer and posted for everyone to see.
Thursday we went to meet
the secretary of our community to talk about the project and about the
importance of it and how it will be a benefit for us. We also asked a lot of
questions about how the community tries to fulfill the right to freedom and
family, focusing more on the latter. The interview will be translated and published.
Our journalists will also write an essay about it, which will, too, be released
in English.
