Dissemination actions at school

   During the two years project, we're sometimes showing our teachers, students and their parents, the different action we're implementing at our classes. For example, just have a look at the way we're showing how our students develop their storytelling in English by means of participating in a task itinerary in English lessons.

   Moreover, our students' creativity has been potentially increased letting them to decorate the teachers' offices with some representative well known names from the different subjects. Here you can see how Virginia Woolf and Victor Hugo are our new mates in the foreign language department!

Catalan writer Arturo Padilla at school

  We invited the writer Arturo Padilla to come to school to take part in a workshop with ESO students. Arturo talked about his last novel published; Despertant la Ira del Faraó. He usually writes novels for teenagers and he's a writer who was born in a village quite close to ours, which helps students to get engaged and interested in reading.





Working on Storytelling in class

   During the 2nd year GoFor project, partners agreed on start working on storytelling in our classes. This will be the motto of second students' exchange mobility in Estonia, where they will be working in mixed nationality groups in order to write a story. In order to be successful, we considered essential to work on this previously in our classes, as well as creating a mail chain where each partner will develop 3 pages long section of the same story. This will be a model for a our project students.

   During January, we've been dealing with stories' structure, grammar, vocabulary to get our students ready for the project task. Moreover, our students have participated in an itinerary of storytelling tasks: sequencing, free writing, whole-class story, grammar exercises, create your hero... timed. This helps our students to develop their language skills, their critical thinking, creativity and autonomy, as well as learning to work under pressure.

   After the lesson, students were invited to leave their comments (the most you like and the least you like) in a panel.
