Spring is back! On a Easter sunny morning it's a poem I'm reading that makes Spring seem more intensely itself.

Today is Easter, the most important Christian religious holiday and widely regarded as the second most popular holiday in general after Christmas.

And for the first this century the holy festivals of Ramadan, Easter and Passover coincide this year. That's happened one time every century.

"So, this is the moment to come together and for those that believe in God (in) different ways, with different expressions, to join their voices in a common prayer for peace."

António Guterres, UN Secretary-General

This coincidence of Easter, Passover, and Ramadan happening around the same time is a rare and wonderful opportunity for people of different faiths to come together and celebrate and shared values of hope, renewal, and compassion.

For students around world will be a wonderful moment to see comprehension among all. And it will remain a very important inspiration for the new generations from the different religions or faith.

We all have students of all faiths in our classes. And know how handle all of them. There is respect and collaboration between all of them.

Teachers and students got Easter school break in most of European countries where the schools are closed.

War, violence, hate, world pandemic and persistent lockdowns with school closings have and are affect children and teens everywhere.

It’s impossible to overstate what this entire crisis will mean for the pandemic generation.

However, we should acknowledge that some children have exhibited unexpectedly high levels of resiliency and independence while dealing with the disruptions all over the world.
