Your task: Plan a cross-curricular mini-project. Your mini-project should incorporate some of the techniques you have seen on the course so far. Complete the table below.

Topic and project title
Violeta Monreal visits our school.
Your subject area: How will the project fit with your subject?
My subject area is Literacy. With this project my students are going to learn how to create a story and the sequence of events.
Who are you doing the project with?
With the Art teacher
Learning objectives
Read a biography to get information.
Plan and write a story following the sequence of events.
Act out a story.
Anticipated problems (and solutions)
Problems: At the beginning I wanted to create a story with the whole class but I realized that there would be a lot of characters in the story and it could be a little bit messy.
Solution: students worked in groups of five and create different stories so they can act them out in front of the class to show their mates.




Teach your mini-project. Reflect on how it went. Be prepared to give feedback.


Group and date taught

YEAR 4
From the 5th of February to the 9th of February
What did you do?



CONTEXT: Violeta Monreal, a Spanish illustrator, is coming to our school to give a workshop to our students. The Art teacher and me decided to do a project together to study this author deeply and practise the English language through it. The project is divided in two sections: Before Violeta´s visit and After.
BEFORE VIOLETA´S VISIT
Session 1: Introduction to the artist Violeta Monreal.
Activity 1: Silent discussion in pairs: Could you draw a picture without any pencils, paintbrushes or crayons? How could you do that?
We share the answers (whole class)
I asked the students if they know an artist that draws without any of the things already mentioned. Then I show them some books of Violeta Monreal ( the artist we are going to know about) and her pictures(Violeta Monreal uses the collage technique to create her illustrations)
Activity 2: QR hunt about Violeta Monreal
Students go around the class to look for the information in the QR codes and fulfil their questionnaires.

AFTER VIOLETA´S VISIT
Once Violeta Monreal has visited the children, they are going to create a puppet character in the Art Class following her technique (She does her illustrations tearing up pieces of paper and sticking them to create a collage). Those puppets are going to be used to create a story in English and act it out in front of the classmates.
Session 2: Create a story
Students watch a video that explains the sequence of events and it has got a chant. In this way they can remember easily the sequence of events.
After that in groups they have to put in order a short story that the teacher gives them in pieces. Then they study the poster (see below) retelling the story.
In the end, in groups, they plan and write a short story(story plan) using their characters and when they finish they tell their stories acting out in front of the class( We will need another session to listen to every group)

What went well


Students were well motivated. They enjoy the QR hunt a lot. Most of the students achieved to create well sequenced stories.

Reflection for future practice
What needed improvement/changes and why


I will need more tablets and mobile phones for the QR hunt. I had only three tablets, one didn´t work well so some groups of students had to wait to do their QR hunt.


What would you change considering level,  age or other factors


I would try to pay more attention to those students that need reinforcement in English language because although they had a lot of fun with this activity sometimes I found them a little bit lost. For example, they had problems in following instructions and they just copy the answers their group have in the QR hunt but they didn´t understand so much what they had to do.

Your task: Plan a cross-curricular mini-project. Your mini-project should incorporate some of the techniques you have seen on the course so far. Complete the table below.

Topic and project title
Transport”
Your subject area: How will the project fit with your subject?
Transport is a topic where I can develop a lot of activities in Physical education and in arts &crafts we can make transports and we can include vial education.
Who are you doing the project with?
with the English teacher
Learning objectives
1.- Define transport and identify the three types of transport: land, sea and air.
2.- Differentiate between public and private transport.
3.- Analyse the characteristics of land transport.
4.- Analyse the characteristics of sea and air transport.
Anticipated problems (and solutions)
In arts &craft class I am going to need more than two days to finish the car craft.
In P.E pupils are not going to understand the mindfulness story in English. Maybe I play it in Spanish.




Teach your mini-project. Reflect on how it went. Be prepared to give feedback.


Group and date taught

1º y 2º of primary . One week, from February  14 to 17
What did you do?



(scan and attach a copy of the material you used, or paste any links below)
English class
-Running dictation with transports words and images .
-Activity book, and digital activities.  Road safety
-Bingo 
- Song. The wheels of the bus go round and round 

Arts & crafts class:
Draw different transports: car, bicycle, lorry, train, plane, ship…
Make a car with a toilet roll



Physical education
Simon says: slow, fast, you are a car, a plane, a bus…
The blind train. The students grouped in groups of three. They are placed in a row as a train. All have their eyes covered except the last one. The latter by touching the shoulders, right if you want them to go to the right, and left if you want them to go to the left, direct the rest of the comrades. The little touches are passed until it reaches the first
Land, sea or air. A row of blocks on the ground.
On the right is land, on the left is sea and above it is air. It is said on high, LAND, and they have to go to the right, if it is said SEA, to the left and if it is said AIR, on top of the blocks. The one who is wrong is encouraged. Then it can be complicated, saying a means of transport and you have to think if it goes by land, by sea or by air.
A balloon trip
Mindfulness. With music in the background, lying on the floor, eyes closed. A story is told of a balloon trip, and we imagine everything that is happening.




What went well


Running dictation was very fun for them.

Reflection for future practice
What needed improvement/changes and why


More days for the craft.
Spanish mindfulness . Because I wanted them to feel the relaxation and be aware of what they were doing at that moment.

Lyrics
The wheels on the bus go round and round. Round and round. Round and round.
The wheels on the bus go round and round. Round and round.
The door on the bus goes open and shut. Open and shut. Open and shut.
The door on the bus goes open and shut. Open and shut.
The wipers on the bus go swish swish swish. Swish swish swish. Swish swish swish.
The wipers on the bus go swish swish swish. Swish swish swish.
The horn on the bus goes beep beep beep. Beep beep beep. Beep beep beep.
The horn on the bus goes beep beep beep. Beep beep beep.
The people on the bus go up and down. Up and down. Up and down.
The people on the bus go up and down. Up and down.
The babies on the bus go, “Wah wah wah. Wah wah wah. Wah wah wah.”
The babies on the bus go, “Wah wah wah. Wah wah wah.”
The mommies on the bus go, “Shhh shhh shhh. Shhh shhh shhh. Shhh shhh shhh.”
The daddies on the bus go, “Shhh shhh shhh. Shhh shhh shhh.”



Arts class

We have several models on the board and we choose which one we want to copy.

Use the imagination, and make different models so that they choose one that most suits their abilities.
Present different materials can be used to carry out the work.

Group and date taught

Group 6th primary,  from January 20th  to March 1st
What did you do?



What went well


At this moment I can’t do it, but I think all of this project can go well. With patient everything is possible, and if we leave the children investigate, we will get people who think and work their imagination.


Reflection for future practice
What needed improvement/changes and why
I need more experience and more work and I need to investigate more about this topic in order to improve my technique and so I´ll can teach better and have a wider range of recourses to apply in the classroom.
What would you change considering level,  age or other factors
I think, I´ll change the way of teaching in class, encouraging cooperative work and favouring the imagination through a different techniques to reach an objective.
