Sally Russel - Year 5

Year 5 pupils have done a really enjoyable project based on Sally Russel's totems. 

Sally Russel is a sculptor from California. She developed her style by mixing shapes, textures, colours and patterns, and became fascinated with the interplay of these elements and the unlimited possibilities they create. Then, her ceramic totems appeared.

Even though Sally created her totems using ceramic, we have used toilet paper rolls (#greenschool) and some paitings. Year 5 pupils worked in groups and cooperatively. As you can see, this is how they organised themselves. 

Here there are some photos of this amazing project. We are glad to show you our final products. Have fun!

Fashion through the ages - Year 6

Year 6 pupils have done a catwalk in order to show you how fashion has changed through years. 

They have worked in small groups and cooperatively to prepare their final performance... and our young learners have done it together with Catherine, our language assisstant. This project has been a great way to improve their speaking skills while they were having fun, as well as putting into practise new vocabulary related to the topic we were working.

We are glad to show you a video in which you can watch their fantastic and impressive results. We hope you enjoy it!

JEM 11

On Tuesday 21 of February, some English teachers from Vedruna Balaguer School attended to the 11^th Edition of Multilingual Schools (Jornades d’Escoles Multilingües 11 #JEM11) in Barcelona.

It has been an enriching and amazing experience in which different schools and professionals from the educational field shared their personal knowledge, letting us know innovative teaching and learning methodologies and dynamics for learning foreign languages.

We also had the chance to discover a great amount of expositors, foreign language workshops based on Project Learning and CLIL, language assistants, book editorials, among many other resources which we feel sure that will be meaningful and really attractive for our pupils.
