They learn the social sense and cooperation in a warm and homely environment that pays attention to the care of vital qualities: creation, initiative and imagination. Childhood is one of the most important times in life as it creates our attitudes towards the world and towards other people.

FIRST CYCLE: READING TIME

A-S-T-O-N-I-S-H-M-E-N-T. ASTONISHMENT! Joy of discovery. Happiness to be able to transmit. The unique and spontaneous moment of discovering how letters sound when we say them together out loud and a word is born, and with it, everything it can make you feel. The joy of being able to share those stories that move. The First Year of Primary group each week enjoys a reading space where they immerse themselves in the world of letters, words, sentences, which draw us stories and images with teachings and values: friendship, honesty, respect, loyalty. Through the fables of Aesop, Leonardo da Vinci and other authors, we have created our first Reading Book. The great amazement is not only to discover reading, but to discover the gift of being able to transmit and move others.

THIRD CYCLE: MATHEMATICS PERIOD

In this math period we have started the day with a rhythm game in the garden alternating jump rope games and rhythm games with our hands. Later, in the classroom, we did a short meditation to listen calmly, with eyes closed and stillness to the noise of silence. Next we have continued with the mental calculation that has been present during the 3 weeks. During this period we have worked with fractions, decimals and percentages based on visual proposals, where they have had to solve practical problems. They have been introduced to the problems of the family economy solving situations that can be found on a daily basis: discounts, taxes, etc. It is the beginning of the economic mathematics that will be found later. Hypatia of Alexandria has accompanied us throughout the entire period. Discover that in the cultural capital of the world there was a woman like Hypatia, where her memory still endures, defending until her last breath wisdom, bravery, humility, justice and truth.

1st YEAR OF ESO: BIOLOGY PERIOD. THE NATURE OF THE HUMAN BEING

What is needed to study and know the nature of the human being? A holistic vision is needed that includes geology, botany, zoology, geography, meteorology. A comprehensive vision is needed that can relate the systems of your body. With the 1st year of ESO group for 3 weeks, we have begun to discover the particularities that the human organism has, and to do this we have first observed, drawn and described the qualities of the Mineral, Vegetable and Animal Kingdom. What similarities and differences do they have between yes and what is the essence that characterizes them? How are they interdependently related? What are the differences between the Animal Kingdom and the Human Being? Through question and reflection, we have discovered that the human being contains the mineral kingdom in his physical body, especially in the bones and teeth, where crystalline structures appear. The growth, metabolic and reproduction processes are linked to the plant kingdom, since formative forces participate; and in the same way as the animal kingdom, the human being closes itself by creating an inner world and opens to the world through the sense organs, influenced by psychic forces. The great difference between human beings and the rest of the kingdoms lies in their ability to think, which includes the freedom to create something new. And in the possibility of learning and developing infinite capabilities in the learning process.
