Class 4′s have planted their own seed for a better World.

During this course, class 4′s have learnt the meaning of the 3R’s. These represent:
 
*Recycling
*Reusing
*Reducing
They chose to focus on on reusing by organising a Toy Exchange Market where every child could bring a (second hand in good conditions) toy to be exchanged for another one.
 
Only one condition was requested: to bring 2€ minimum to participate. This money would be donated to an enviromental  NGO of their choice. 
 
 
Results:
1. The children had lots of fun choosing and getting a “new toy”.
 
2. They collect 106€ that was immediately transferred to Green peace for the “Replant the Forest” project. They felt very proud of this and immediately started coming up with other ideas that we are now considering for this term or for next year.
3. We all learnt how our small acts can have big and positive results.
For a greener planet :)

“We are not only students, we can also be teachers”- Toni 1ºESO.

There is a Chinese proverb that says “Tell me and I will forget; show me and I may remember; involve me and I will understand”.

Toni and César in 1º ESO put that into practice when they taught Class 5 the grammar they have been learning. Class 5 thought that they made very good teachers and Toni and César really understood The Conditionals for their exam.

 

This is one of the practices that have been planned for the coming years to motivate the students to interact more with the other classes in order to enrich the learning experience. We can all learn from others.
 
It’s not a matter of breaking the rules but to make better ones.
