CREATION OF LOOMS

The fingers accompany the threads: like the waves of the sea, they go above and below... The preschool boys and girls who will go on to primary school are finishing weaving the loom that will be used to create a bag. Every day they dedicate some time to it when they arrive at school. This daily practice helps them acquire perseverance, patience, motivation, the practice of self-evaluation, full attention, creativity... At the same time, recognizing the satisfaction that creating a useful and practical object for life brings increases. the self-esteem. It is manual work that also involves practicing fine motor skills, putting hand-eye coordination or laterality to work, which will be the skill that will later help them to delve into reading and writing.

GARDEN PROJECT

"¡Mi corazón en el tuyo! ¿Y qué más? La rosa en mi corazón. - ¿Y qué más? La hojita nueva en la rosa. - ¿Y qué más? El agua en la hojita nueva. - ¿Y qué más? …El cielo azul en el agua." Juan Ramón Jiménez   Spring has arrived in the first cycle: everything has started to grow! The tree that was difficult to climb is now a piece of cake, the stories and books that we read in fits and starts now flow like a docile torrent. The garden has burst into colors, shapes and fruits that sweeten our mornings. In the garden space we have planted some sunflower seeds that we have been caring for and observing daily for three weeks. To our surprise, it has not been all a piece of cake. Once our seeds grew, we were surprised that some docile inhabitants of our garden liked the leaves of our sunflowers so much that they did not leave even one. We began to observe and imagine how to help our plants. And with ideas from everyone in the group, we created a tall castle surrounded by ashes to keep snails away from our sunflowers. And what a result! At the moment they continue to grow healthy, unfolding all their leaves towards the sun. And we are full of confidence that in the event of something unexpected we can solve it to continue growing.

THE WHOLE CONTAINS THE PARTS

In the second cycle class we are working on the circle as a symbol of unity, creating a large circular mural, which represents the group, and which is made up of small triangles that symbolize the students in class.

NATURE AND TIME

January falls the snow, February cold winds blow, In March peep out the early flowers, And April comes with sunny showers. In May the roses bloom so gay, In June the farmer mows his hay, In July brightly shines the sun, In August harvest is begun. September turns the green leaves brown, October winds then shake them down, November fills with bleak and smear, December comes and ends the year.   During the grade two English block and using the theme of nature and time, the students covered topics such as seasons, days of the week, months of the year, weather, telling time, animal and plant observation and description. They sang poems and rhymes, wrote and read simple words and phrases and used their creativity to depict some months with 3 dimensional art work, including flowers and wind pictures. This is a popular lesson block among second graders as it allows them the freedom to express what they observe in nature in a creative, fun and varied setting. Confidence building is key in language learning. Viewing topics the children can understand and enjoy allows them to investigate, experiment and participate in an stimulating and safe environment.

SIEGFRIED AND THE DRAGON

"Los encinares del bosque esconden la entrada de una gruta. De su interior llega el eco acompasado de un hierro golpeado en el yunque y el soplar de un fuelle. Los pájaros preludian sus cantares mañaneros y los zorros y los lobos no sesgan con sus aullidos la tranquilidad de la selva. Sólo el lamento de Mime, el enano herrero que forja en la gruta, rasga el silencio." El anillo de los Nibelungos, Richard Wagner   The fourth grade group of the second cycle of primary school is preparing a work through Eurythmy and Art of the Word that tells the story of Siegfried and the dragon. Siegfried, hero of Nordic mythology, confronts the Fafnir dragon who guarded the treasure of the Nibelungs and by killing him and bathing in his blood he becomes immortal.

PHYSICS PERIOD. THIRD CYCLE

Behind everything whether simple or grand a secret is hidden: inside and outside the being in the sky and the stars, behind all of them the enigma you will find... If you find the key how magical it opens for you to the world and to yourself: the observation   Third cycle is carrying out a period of science experiencing physical phenomena through which the forces of nature are manifested. Just as light, sound or temperature are perceived by our senses, in the same way we can reach the laws of optics, acoustics and thermals. The different experiments carried out in the classroom serve as an opportunity for us to refine our observation skills, put aside what we thought or what we had been told about physics concepts and its laws, and thus be able to reach our own conclusions.

PROBLEMS AND CHALLENGES

"The noblest pleasure is the joy of understanding" Leonardo da Vinci   Problems and challenges is a space to put into practice, apply and develop mathematical knowledge through experience. The Third Cycle Primary group have been traveling with numbers, accompanying the work done during the mathematics period. They have investigated the qualities of numbers focusing on multiples and divisors. They have explored parts and fractions with the help of the entire class group and the different groups that we can create according to clothing colors, age, sex and other characteristics. Currently, they continue with the unit of measurement connecting with the class and school space. The 1st year ESO group has been doing the “Vitruvian Man” project during the weekly math space where they have combined different areas of mathematics. They have taken measurements of different parts of the body of the school students and have entered this data into LibreOffice, learning to use this tool to perform calculations and generate new statistical variables. Once the data has been calculated, they have represented it graphically with bar diagrams and have carried out an analysis to see if the proportions that the parts of our body have among themselves coincide with those found by Leonardo da Vinci.

GEOMETRY PERIOD. 1st YEAR OF ESO

"Geometry is the archetype of the beauty of the world" Johannes Kepler   The 1st ESO group is carrying out the geometry period, where students learn to use geometry instruments to construct new geometric shapes with precision and beauty. From the point, then the line, and finally the figures plans, they draw geometric figures, part of the most simple and after progressively increasing the complexity of the six elaborations. In this course, the objectives are realized with precision, clarity and accuracy; the students must be able to sustain the great attention and concentration that are necessary to be able to draw the proposed geometric shape, to finally donate color and obtain a full figure of beauty on each one expresses it in its own way to turn it into a totally personal and unique artistic work.

WITCHES, MONSTERS AND CREATURES

"Frankenstein had a great desire to learn. He wanted to know the mysteries of heaven, earth and the soul of man" Mary Shelley (published 1818) Frankenstein or the modern Prometheus What power do witches, monsters and creatures have over us? What function do they have in our imagination? What do these ancient creations, common to all cultures, tell us about? These weeks, 2nd and 3rd year ESO students are putting themselves in the shoes of the most literary monsters of our tradition to try to unravel their mysteries, just as the doctor created by the writer Mary Shelley wanted to do. In the "Witches, Monsters and Creatures" period, we come face to face with the evil and bloodthirsty vampire Dracula, the gorilla moviegoer King Kong, the chilling monster created by Dr. Victor Frankenstein... without forgetting the feminine aspect of the entire series. liturgy, represented in witches, the mysterious women with supernatural powers that the popular imagination has created. Through these myths, students are working on reading comprehension in Catalan as well as artistic creation by creating a comic as a team, just as they have reflected on the borders between fantasy and science fiction. As a personal project, they will have to create their own creature, witch or literary monster and bring it to life, in order to solve the internal enigma about the hidden power of monsters, witches and creatures.
