Proyecto "Bring your own news" en el Colegio San Gregorio

Hoy os traemos una nueva entrada gracias a Julián Sanz Mamolar (@juliansanzmamolar), del Colegio San Gregorio en Aguilar de Campoo. A lo largo del curso 2014-2015 han llevado a cabo un proyecto fantástico, Bring your own news (BYON). 

Sus alumnos y alumnas de sexto de Primaria debían aportar una noticia que les interesara para su posterior comentario en clase. Tras llevar a cabo distintas rutinas de pensamiento para reflexionar sobre la noticia, en un panel de Padlet debían poner en común sus impresiones a partir de una pregunta planteada por su profesor. Todas las noticias y desarrollo de las reflexiones se pueden encontrar en su blog de aula.

Además, como producto final que también serviría de colofón al proyecto, su alumnado tuvo que realizar una infografía que resumiera todo el proceso que se había llevado a cabo con su noticia. Todas las instrucciones, están recogidas en la siguiente entrada.

En el blog de cada alumno en Kidblog, se publicaron las infografías realizadas.

En definitiva, enhorabuena al cole, el profe y los alumnos y alumnas por haber hecho un gran trabajo y haber aprendido un montón.

Landscapes around the world

I am Cristina Fradejas. I am an English teacher. This school year I am teaching 5th and 6th graders. For this reason, I have designed this infoEDUgraphic for grade 5. Moreover, I have developed an infoedugraphic because we are going to become part of this fantastic collaborative project with

infographics at our URJC Master's Degree. It has been such a great experience!

First of all, I would like to mention that Canva, the tool that I have chosen has a lot of advantages. One of them is that it is very easy and friendly, which allows you to create fantastic designs. I found it so interesting and useful that I have used it in class with my students. They have loved it! They were paying a lot of attention to me. So, I consider very advisable to use it!

Now, I will explain the process that I have followed in order to create my infoedugraphic.

As I have mentioned before, it is for 5th graders.

In order to organize myself, first I have created a structure of the steps that all teachers should follow in planning a CLIL lesson. They are: objectives, contents (they must be classified into vocabulary, functions, language skills and discourse type), methodology (including resources, key competencies and class distribution), evaluation criteria (paying special attention to the objectives because they must be interrelated), contextual elements and cognitive thinking processes that must be developed by the students along the challenge.

Once that I had thought about all these elements, I started to create the tasks and activities that my students should tackle. I have tried to be creative making the activities quite interesting and motivating. This way, my students will give enhance their development.

Let me conclude by saying that it has been a pleasure to take part in this collaborative project because I have improved my work as a teacher using other types of materials in my class.

Thanks for the opportunity.

I hope you enjoy the outcome:
