Let's talk about immigration

Dealing with the topic of immigration, these are the activities we will be carrying out:

1. We'll have a discussion about the topic with help of the cards below.


2. In international teams, make up a rap. Be sure to include the ideas and thoughts shared in class.
3. As we'd like you to empathize with immigrants to your country, imagine that you and your family  have to leave your country for good and write a brief composition about it.

(Reasons for leaving, where you are going to live, how you are feeling, what you will miss about your country, your expectations about the new place, how you would like to be treated, what you will do over there ...)

Please, leave your writing in the comments!

4. Search the internet for famous quotations about positive immigration, write them on a piece of coloured card and pin them to the UniDiversity board.

    My family and I have moved because my father has been given a new job in the United Kingdom, specifically in London.Although at first I was a bit angry about leaving my Friends in my country, Little by Little I have become accustomed to the people here and their traditions but I still miss the customs of my country like stay up late at night, the warm weather, the food but above all my Friends.
    My expectations were that London was going to be a city with a lot of culture and a lot of cultural diversity although with a cold weather. I would like people to treat me like a person there, but without ceasing to be a Spanish native, in general in a friendly way. I think that there I would go to university, I would go out with the people I met there and I try to adapt to their traditions as much as posible.
    In conclusión, I am going to miss Spain but I think that this changed is good for me and I can use this oportunity for learn much english.

    Nowadays we can find many cases of immigration around the world. Now I'm going to tell you about my experience like immigrant.

    Last year, my family and I had to leave our country because of my mother's job. We was in a bad situation and my mother got a job in England, so we lived in England for six months.

    At the beginning I felt very sad because I wasn't going to see my friends, and furthermore I didn't know anyone from England. However when I began to go to high school, I began to make new friends, they were very sympa and friendly. We was living in London, this place is very beautiful and we take the opportunity to see all monuments like Big Ben, London eye, etc.

    In conclusion it was a great experience and I would like repeat it again, furthermore it help me to learn culture and improve my English.

    I had to come to Spain from Ukraine, in my country there has been a small war and the prices of all food resources have gone up a lot. It was very difficult to live in a country with constant conflicts my family and we have traveled a huge distance by car with the right amount of money, we have no option to lose one day since we have the right food and money for gasoline. is a very hard situation I hope that in Spain I wait for an opportunity to improve my life, I do not want more than just what I think we deserve all ...

    Nice post! Im going to share with you my personal experience as an inmigrant.

    Firstable, I was born in Zürich, Swizertland in 1999 but my family soon decided to move to Spain because of the poberty that we were suffering since 10 years. At the beginning, we didnt have a lot of money so we couldnt pay for an appartament. We had to sleep in a refugee camp the first week.Then, my father got a job in a shoe factory and my mother acquire a very cheap flat in Málaga, Andalucia so we could start earning some money and living in a house. The next years were easier and we finally move to Cómpeta, a small town where we are pretty happy.

    We love Spanish culture, food and traditions, and we get on very well with our neighbours. Spain gave us a new opportunity and a new life that we are going to seize and enjoy the most we can.

    I’m from Bulgaria and I’m going to tell you about my story. When I was little, a year and a half, Bulgaria had a very bad situation. My mum was a teacher there but she didn’t like it because the students were very naughty and did what they wanted. My mum had to stopped work when I was born. She didn’t like Bulgaria to live with two children and my dad and she wanted to look for a better country. She had a friend in Málaga, so she knew she was going to live in Málaga, her friend told her that Spain was a good and peaceful country, so my mum thought a lot about it and decided to come alone. She came and started work. She told me now, she was feeling very sad because I was a baby and she couldn't stay with me. After that, she told my dad that the best thing to do was to come to Spain and work and study here. I was very little and I didn’t remember that, but my mum told me I was crying every day for the first month because I wasn’t with her.
    Now, I miss my family from Bulgaria, but if mum said to me now to go to Bulgaria to live I wouldn’t want because I like life here, I would go on holidays and, yes,it is quiet but I like more Spain. And that’s why I live in Málaga.

    My name is Liam Dorado, I’d like to talk about when I relocated from Ireland. I left Ireland when I was two years old, I lived on a small town called Killarney. I was too young so I wasn’t able to learnt English at all. My mother is spanish and she was working as a nursery in a very prestigious hospital at Dublin, because of that she spent a lot of time far away home. I was living whit my father who is Irish, he works as a builder.

    My mother loved Ireland, she used to read outside seeing the beautiful landscapes, but my father told to me that she had always complained about the weather that there is.

    My mother spent a lot of time discussed with my father and the love between them was disappearing. Next they divorced.

    I went with my mother when she returned to Spain. She loves sun, so she decided to live in my aunt’s house for a few days in Málaga. Four months later my mother found a job as a doctor in a private hospital on Marbella.

    I started going to school when I was five years old, I spoke perfect Spanish so I hadnt got any problem at school, but my brother was different, He came here when he was eleven years old and he didn’t speak any Spanish, but he learnt helped by his friends.

    Today I have Spain as my favorite country and I recommend everyone to come!
