Umbria Slow:
Thank you for the initation. I will surely add this to my calendar as I’d like to cover the topic of schools. I’ve been working in schools for the last 17 years in Italy as an American. I think the biggest difference I have found is that the students don’t change classrooms. I grew up in Caliifornia where every 50 minutes or so, the bell would ring, and we’d pick up our backpacks and go to our next class.
This gave us the opportunity to meet more students. Also I think the teachers had the opportunity to decorate and have materials that represented their subjects in the class instead of having to haul them around from class to class.
I’m also going to touch on sports as I find school sports fantastic. I just think academics and sports should go hand in hand. Here in Italy, schools have few teams in my humble opinion.
Thanks again for the inviation.
Sending blessings.
