Cruise on the Tiber river

On the 3rd day, the students carried out in the computer lab of Liceo Enriques two "CREATIVE WRITING ACTIVITIES" using "Publisher" or "Canva".

Each student from each group was given a role: Press Officer – Photojournalist – Layout Manager – Hardware Technologist – Reality Checker – Time Keeper. Teachers set meetings for the same roles, meaning all layout managers had to meet and exchange ideas or check that they were not using the same layout.

Each group was assigned a word or two from the project title - "Learning creativity, entrepreneurship and technology in the service of those who need it most". In the first the students had to find or invent a piece of writing (a haiku or shape poem, a couplet or an acrostic) with words from the title of the program and they had to develop a colorful and attractive poster. In the second the students worked on Tessellation- a repeating pattern that can be generalized to higher dimensions- and using geometric shapes they collaboratively created posters. The students' creations were hung on two large boards on the wall of the Aula Magna of Liceo Enriques. This activity required the knowledge of some easy forms of poetry for which preparatory work had already been done on the first day of the mobility.

In the afternoon of the same day at the Rome school, the students played the Taboo card game, with knowledge cards created and drawn by all the groups before the Rome mobility. This was followed by the awarding of the certificates and a wonderful dinner buffet offered by the Italian parents with flavors that had the "smell of Italy". The evening ended with lots of dancing and fun that brought students and teachers of all participants very close, creating friendships that we believe will remain unchanged over time!!!

Then the Director of the school presented the benefits of the Erasmus programs and all the teams offered their gifts
