PROJECT CONTEXT
Nuestra Señora de Montserrat School in Rubí is a school with a European will. Some teachers are working in the e-twinning platform and are carrying out relevant projects. This way, we work with linguistic and cultural diversity. We also belong to the UNESCO schools net, as we wish to integrate multicultural aspects in the curriculum. Moreover, we also want to be a Multilingual School. If we are granted the multilingual project in the school, we would be able to foster other ideas and projects that are now in the initial stages, and dependant on our linguistic skills.
NUMBER AND PROFILE OF THE PARTICIPANTS
The participants on the Erasmus + project would benefit from this scheme, it would enable them to improve their methods of teaching English. We already teach some subjects in English, but we wish to increase the number of subjects and reinvigorate our ways of teaching. We also think that the new materials and applications that could be developed would be very important.
The 12 teachers who would participate in this project have been organized into 3 teams , one for each level -kindergarden, primary and secondary).
Our main objectives are :
1. Acquiring language and teaching skills that would benefit each level in school.
2 . Observing the teaching methodologies within a British school.
3 . Improving the English skills within our school, whilst integrating the language into different subjects such as Art and ICT.
4 . Produce materials which will improve the language skills of our students .
Each team of teachers will carry out the following activites / courses in order to achieve the above goals:
- methodology courses.
- Refresh English courses.
- CLIL courses.
- Job shadowing.
The participants are dynamic , participatory , and employ innovative ICT techniques in education. They are also committed to the european project, and our enthusiastic and eager to carry out the project.
ACTIVITIES
1. A group of teachers will attend English courses to improve their level. The courses will be about CLIL in Sciences, ICT and Maths. Allowing the teachers to improve their English, whilst inspiring them to employ innovative methods in their English teaching.
2. Another group of teachers will go to "Birdwell School" to observe the teaching techniques. We may incorporate the different styles into our school to develop our English teaching. The aim is to achieve new methodology, materials and ideas to introduce them in linguistic and non linguistic subjects.
3. All the teachers who participate in the project will develop their English and materials, in order teach some subjects in English.
METHODOLOGY TO DEVELOP THE PROJECT
a. To learn and to hopefully implement cooperative work in the future.
b. To belong to a mobility program, so we can open future opportunities and projects.
c. To improve and refresh the English level, written and oral.
d. To get innovative ideas and techniques to motivate the students in the English lessons as well as in the other subjects that will be taught in English.
e. To discover more resources and activities to prepare, design and evaluate new English materials (CLIL).
SHORT DESCRIPTION OF THE RESULTS, IMPACT AND POSSIBLE LONG TERM BENEFITS.
a. Increase the teacher's and student's motivation and involvement in our school.
b. Improve the language competence of the school community and increase the international projection.
c. To create and develop teaching materials for our classes.
d. Integrating language skills and contents into the different educational levels of our school: kinder garden, primary and secondary.
e. Cooperating with our partner school to foster the exchange of ideas and mutual enrichment.
f. To develop ICT to form a relationship and exchange between the students of both countries. – To promote and organize student exchanges between the UK and Spain (Primary and secondary levels).
It is necessary to point out that all the educational community will be enriched from this project. The pupils from both schools will have the opportunity to increase their linguistic skills in a foreign language. They will also learn about a different culture and hopefully establish lasting relationships with the exchanged pupils. The program will generate a wider influence which will impact Rubí (location of school) through means of exhibition, presentations, seminars and conferences.
