Calculating proportions in a cooperative way

On March 21st, we carried out a cooperative activity with the students of the Bilingual Section involving Milagros Fernandez, mother of a student, Alfonso Tébar as the language consultant and myself.

The basis of cooperative learning is that students learn, not only from the teacher, but also from the interaction with any other member of the educational community, especially his own colleagues.

The objectives of the activity, related to the unit “Numerical Proportionality”, were three:

• Students had to realize the need of using the right proportions in situations such as, for example, cooking a traditional recipe.
• Students had to be able to calculate the proper amounts to cook the dish according to the number of serves indicated.
• Students had to reach the objectives above through the cooperation with their teammates using English language.

To reinforce learning, Milagros showed us in a practical way how the application of the right proportions produces a delicious dish (a result that students and teachers could taste).

We can rate only positively activities of this kind and we assure that the next year we will repeat the experience.

3D evolution

Last Monday, an enthusiastic and numerous group of students from our school attended the performance of a play in the Casa de la Cultura theatre. The play was entitled 3D-Evolution and it was well acted by two English-speaking performers who offered us an energetic and amusing interpretation.

Sports, technology and funny misunderstandings caught the audience’s attention from the very beginning of the show. Furthermore, some students were selected (may we say kidnapped?) among the audience to take part in the representation. They were given a variety of roles (sportsmen and sportswomen, showman, computer technician’s helper,…) and they had the chance to prove themselves on the stage! Octavio, Mª Pili, Vicente, Julián, David and Lidia Cruz did extraordinarily well in their parts. Some of them won a gold medal, others were given a beautiful bouquet of flowers and all of them received a sincere applause from the crowd.

Funny and interactive, this performance allowed our students to make a practical and active use of their knowledge of English in an informal atmosphere. Some of the students interacted with native speakers of English and everyone in the theatre had a great time!
