Relax, meditation, and a little bit of yoga...


Every day, before our English sessions, we practice some minutes of Yoga. All the instructions are given in English. We are aware of our body position and our breathing. Mind and body are connected. We get a calm and nice atmosphere and we are ready for the English lessons.

We listen to a music, called mantra, that helps us to get relaxed.
Om mani padme hum

Live While We're Young


Hey girl, I'm waitin' on ya, I'm waitin' on ya
Come on and let me sneak you out
And have a celebration, a celebration
The music up, the window's down

Yeah, we'll be doing what we do
Just pretending that we're cool
And we know it too
Yeah, we'll keep doing what we do
Just pretending that we're cool
So tonight

Let's go crazy, crazy, crazy till we see the sun
I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never, never, never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some
And live while we're young
Woahhh oh oh oh
Woahhhh oh oh oh
And live while we're young
Woahhh oh oh oh
Tonight let's get some

And live while we're young

Hey girl, it's now or never, it's now or never
Don't over-think, just let it go
And if we get together, yeah, get together
Don't let the pictures leave your phone, ohhhh

Yeah, we'll be doing what we do
Just pretending that we're cool
So tonight

Let's go crazy, crazy, crazy till we see the sun

I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never, never, never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some
And live while we're young
Woahhh oh oh oh
Woahhhh oh oh oh
And live while we're young
Woahhh oh oh oh
Tonight let's get some

Crazy, crazy, crazy till we see the sun

Com aprenem anglès?

CEIP SON OLIVA CURS 2012/2013
Metodologia de l'àrea d'anglès, Laura Sanz Román
Cicle infantil, primer cicle i tercer cicle.

     L'aprenentatge de la llengua estrangera als cicles d'infantil, inical i superior es duen a terme basats en l'aprenentatge cooperatiu.
Es pretén, amb aquest programa, crear un clima d'aula més apropiat per a l'aprenentatge, aprofitar i potenciar la interacció entre iguals com a factor d'aprenentatge (sense oblidar, per descomptat, la interacció entre els alumnes i els seus mestres) i aconseguir així millors resultats acadèmics i un major desenvolupament personal i social de tot l'alumnat. Una característica essencial d'aquests equips és la seva heterogeneïtat.
     Cançons, jocs i representacions teatrals ens ajuden a desenvolupar l'aprenentatge de la llengua estrangera de forma lúdica, espontànea, divertida i molt propera a la realitat dels nostres alumnes.
     Els Bits d'intel.ligència són un recurs utilitzat a diari a les sessions d'anglès i a tots els nivells. Els bits tenen com objectiu millorar l'atenció, facilitar la concentració i desenvolupar i estimular el cervell, la memòria i l'aprenentatge.
     Llenguatge de signes: l'ús del llenguatge de signes (LSE – lengua de signos española- o ASL – american sign language-) és un recurs molt atractiu pels alumnes i a la vegada és una forma d'aprendre una llengua de forma natural, associant una imatge, en aquest cas un signe, a una paraula o só. S'intenta evitar la continua traducció a la llengua materna.
     Creació dels nostres llibres de lectura: a partir d'aquest projecte apropam als nostres alumnes al plaer per la lectura, la conciència literaria, al treball en equip, i a la divulgació d'un projecte comú. Equest projecte se duu a terme de forma interdisciplinar, on tots els alumnes particicipen activament. També existeix un àrea dins l'aula destinada a la lectura de llibres, dotada d'estores i coixins on es pot gaudir de comoditat i d'un entorn apropiat per llegir.
     La relaxació i meditació són essencials a les nostres classes d'anglès; a l'inici de cada sessió destinam 6 minuts per preparar el nostre cos i la nostra ment. Totes les indicacions es fan en anglès i tenim l'oportunitat d'observar el nostre cos, controlar la respiració, treballar amb els cinc sentits (conciència sensorial), aprendre a silenciar la ment i relaxar la nostra musculatura, entre d'altres. S'afavoreix un bon clima de classe que facilita dur a terme altres activitats com els bits d'intel.ligència i la part oral en anglès.
     Els cercles restauratius són una altre estratègia treballada a les sessions d'anglès. En llengua estrangera compartim experiències, sentiments, necessitats, i expectatives. Es tracta d'una eina que facilita el diàleg, l'exposició d'opinions...
    Seguim el mètode  synthetic phonics , mètode d’aprenentatge de la lecto-escriptura anglesa, als cicles d'infantil i primer cicle de primària.

Justin Bieber and Kelly Clarkson use comparatives in their songs

Hello boys and girls!
Kelly  and Justin sing for YOU.
 ENJOY IT !!


Justin:
See I never thought that I could walk through fire.
I never thought that I could take the burn.
I never had the strength to take it higher,
Until I reached the point of no return.

And there's just no turning back,
When your hearts under attack,
Gonna give everything I have,
It's my destiny.

I will never say never! (I will fight)
I will fight till forever! (make it right)
Whenever you knock me down,
I will not stay on the ground.
Pick it up,
Pick it up,
Pick it up,
Pick it up up up,
And never say never.

I never thought I could feel this power.
I never thought that I could feel this free.
I'm strong enough to climb the highest tower.
And I'm fast enough to run across the sea.

And there's just no turning back,
When your hearts under attack,
Gonna give everything I have,
Cause this is my destiny.

I will never say never! (I will fight)
I will fight till forever! (make it right)
Whenever you knock me down,
I will not stay on the ground.
Pick it up,
Pick it up,
Pick it up,
Pick it up, up, up,
And never say never.

Here we go!
Guess who?
JSmith and Jb!
I gotcha lil bro.
Justin Bieber Never Say Never lyrics found on
I can handle him.
Hold up, aight?
I can handle him.

Now he's bigger than me,
Taller than me.
And he's older than me,
And stronger than me.
And his arms a little bit longer than me.
But he ain't on a JB song with me!
