Our last day at Pietro Verri Liceo has been really interesting. First of all, we went to an IT Class. We loved the distribution and shape of the tables, screens and so on. We think that setup encourages teamwork and communication between peers and the teacher. The project they are working on is a comic made with IA in which they advertise their school. They also played a really cool song they created for the same reason. https://youtu.be/UWuPak4bBCQ?feature=shared After that, we met with, Prof. Donzella, French teacher, who apart from telling us about her really interesting background, also explained the School "Open Days" , and how exciting and important It is for her to organise them and receive and talk to the families who are interested in Verri. https://www.verri.edu.it/open-day/ She loved the fact that we have subjects in our school that deal with emotions and feelings. She showed us her 'Tik Tok" account where she posts everything related to School. Our last m...

Today we have spent a nice day. We have met the High School Headmistress "dirigente", Susanna, who has been very friendly while talking to us. We have learnt how the Italian educational system works. Students start High School at the age of fourteen, and they stay until the age of 18-19, spending 5 years. They only get the diploma when they complete 5 years. In Pietro Verri School, students can choose 2 different options, "linguistico" and "tecnico". If they choose "tecnico", they decide a specialty: Economics, Marketing or Techological. Teenagers can learn three languages: Spanish, English and French or German. Pietro Verri High School organises a linguistic inmersion trip everything year for every language. We talked about rules and the socioeconomical context of the school. We gave Susanna a present: an artistic photo book of Seville. Milan is wonderful and has lots of public transport options. You can take the metro, bus or tram everywhere....

Today we spent the morning at Pietro Verri high school. In groups of four, we attended different classes where we spoke with both teachers and students and got to see what their learning dynamics are like. After three classes, each lasting an hour, we were given a diploma for participating in the Erasmus+ activity. Our teachers also received a small gift and a diploma for organizing the trip. At midday, we had lunch at a pizzeria where we had eaten before and really liked. In the afternoon, we had free time in the center of Milan, which everyone used in their own way. Some went to visit football shops, others went to see the Castello Sforzesco, and some took the opportunity to have a snack and buy gifts for their families. Later, we went for dinner at a sandwich place where they served delicious schiacciate, although just a few bites were enough to fill you up. Finally, after dinner, we met up with some Italian girls we had met at Pietro Verri high school and spent a great time chattin...

Today we visited Lake Como, a charming place near Milan. First, we woke up early, had breakfast, and headed to catch the train. After a while, we arrived in Varenna, a romantic fishing village located on the eastern shore, known for its colorful houses. From there, we took a boat to Bellagio. When we arrived in Bellagio, we had some free time. We had lunch sitting by one of its most famous streets—calzones and pizza from a nearby shop. We bought souvenirs, walked around, and visited a beautiful park. Before returning to Varenna, we took a boat again to Lenno. It is known for the Villa del Balbianello, where impressive scenes from Star Wars were filmed. We weren’t very lucky and didn’t manage to visit it, but we enjoyed a refreshing ice cream by the lakeshore, with plenty of laughter. Finally, we ended the day having dinner at a pizza restaurant. It has been a wonderful part of the trip to remember!! Hoy hemos hecho una visita al Lago Di Como, un encantador lugar cerca de Milán. Primero...
