One of the best Saturdays in Romania, it was in Lapusata.

A couple of weeks ago we went to a school in the outside of Vâlcea. It was one of the best Saturdays. We were greeted with music and games, and we taught activities that we have learned throughout EVS.

We got the opportunity to talk about our countries and they talked about Romania. It was a wonderful knowledge exchanges.

Then at midday we were invited with typical foods and drinks. The kids gave us flowers and a lot of hugs.

At the end of the day, we went to a pottery workshop, where we learned the process of preparation.

Wonderful Saturday.

It was a really long day, we ended up with the tired body, but the soul full of energy.

Mulțumesc frumos !!!

                                              

Andre, Miguel and Henrique started working at School nº 4

The plan is to work with non-formal education on arts (music, dance, literature, painting) sports, languages and human rights. The volunteers started playing games to get to know the students better, as well as the students to know them. After the activity was based on presentations about the countries the come from: Brazil and Portugal, where they presented some history facts, culture aspects and discussions with the students about stereotypes. ONE PICTURE WITH EACH CLASS:

Diego and Debora joined the activities in school number 4

Diego and debora went there to meet the kids because it was their first time in this school. Then Andre joined them and they were playing with the kids from 3 and 4 grade.

The kids were very affective with them.

Forum theater, with other volunteers from Drăgășani

The second week of November, mainly we were training and learning about forum theater, how to achieve a play, and how to work in team to succeed. Also meeting the volunteers from Drăgășani, a city very near from here, that allow to us to have new connections for future activities.

We already spoke about forum theater in this blog, we made a play in school number four, some time ago.

This technique uses the power of theater to depict sensitive social issues within a community, where the audience becomes involved in the play and suggests alternative outcomes.

FORUM THEATER IT IS NOT ABOUT BECOME PROFESSIONAL ACTORS, IT IS ABOUT FIND BETTER WAYS AND CREATE CRITICAL THINKING.
