Thanks-thanks-thanks for the activity! It is really helpful and useful to understand myself. During the week, I was thinking - about what project I want to do - I have started with my students a few Scratch projects about saving our country from the war. I’m going to start a campaign on Spreading Kindness… Now, all Ukrainians are thinking only about peace and stopping the war. All projects are important, but I had to choose one - which is so deeply meaningful for me. And I want to share it with you now - this week I wrote a poem - at first for the last year! It followed from a story about very important feeling… So, let me tell the story in a few words. My friend with her daughter had to leave their home in Kiev when the war started… They are very missing for their home. My friend is a designer and often expresses her feeling through pictures. She made a photo with a small paper house on the palm and wrote that she misses and afraids at the same time… afraids to lost their home… I was wanting to help and support her… to share a ripple of kindness… and wrote a poem (as sometimes I am a writer :) And now I understood - the poem may be a start of a project that I want to make with my family and with our friends - to make a completed story about all that happened… and necessary - with happy end. So, Im sharing a part of my friend’s photo and trying to translate my poem into English. Hoping you’ll understand what it means for us… Let’s build a house - Let’s make it of paper, But there’ll be in it All we need: The open windows - To breathe easily, The tiny chimney - To keep us warm. Our dreams will sway Near the attic window, And from the open door We’ll start our journey. Let’s take with us That weightless house - And we’ll be together always like at home! 💛 💙 💞 ![home](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex031/uploads/lcl_discuss/original/2X/c/cb7ac7682e8d36b14f6b33adcff06b8547c02a0a.png) --- _[View the full topic](https://lcl-discuss.media.mit.edu/t/activity-2-make-something/3820)._
