EL CEIP MESTRE PERE GARAU DE SON MACIÀ (MANACOR) AL PROGRAMA ERASMUS+

Aquesta setmana es celebra la visita de mestres i alumnes d'escoles de Bulgària, Itàlia, Grècia, Romania i Turquia, països socis dins el projecte europeu "CULTURAL MAPPING OF EUROPE" que tenim el plaer de coordinar i tindrà una durada de 2 anys.

Aquest programa, té com a objectius fonamentals l'intercanvi de bones pràctiques i coneixença dels diferents països a partir dels principals monuments de la UNESCO, implicar la participació de tota la comunitat educativa i la millora en l'adquisició de la competència en llengua anglesa.

Una de les claus és dur endavant dinàmiques cooperatives, emprant les tecnologies de la informació i comunicació (TIC) per tal de dur a terme la mateixa tasca al mateix temps a països diferents. Per altra banda, es pretén internacionalitzar l'alumnat apropant-los a la realitat europea i desenvolupar així una identitat com a ciutadans europeus.

Dintre d’aquest projecte europeu un grup d’alumnes del nostre centre realitzaren el mes d’abril una visita d’ensenyament-aprenentatge a Bulgària. Durant el curs 2018-2019 es realitzaran visites d'ensenyament aprenentatge a Grècia i Itàlia.

El projecte Erasmus+ del nostre centre està co-financiat amb fons europeu. SEPIE és l'Organisme Autònom, depenent del “Ministerio de Educación, Cultura y Deporte” que actua com a Agència Nacional per a la gestió, difusió, promoció i estudis del programa Erasmus+ a l'àmbit de l'educació i la formació.

És necessari fer difusió de la participació en programes europeus a centres de primària per tal que altres centres s'engresquin amb aquestes experiències tan enriquidores tant a nivell personal com a professional per a tota la comunitat educativa.

El nou edifici del centre es va inaugurar el passat setembre i és la segona visita d'àmbit europeu que rep en aquest curs, ja que a l’actualitat el CEIP Mestre Garau té en marxa dos projectes europeus.

Durant tota la setmana es realitzaran diverses activitats educatives i culturals.

- Local magazine: “Pearls and Crows”

- Local magazine: “Cent per Cent”

- Local magazine: "Manacor Comarca”

- teachers from the school and local and partners' pupils’ parents.

IMPRESSION OF GREEK STUDENTS from 9 PRIMARY SCHOOL OF MYTILINI from LESVOS, GREECE

Our young students were very happy by the warm welcome they received when we arrived at the school in Veliko Tarnovo. Following an old custom the students and teachers were waiting for us holding a traditional round bread and salt. We all cut a part of the bread and had it with spiced salt symbolizing our welcome to the country and the school.

Later on, we all visited various classrooms and took part in the ongoing lessons which gave us the opportunity to compare text books and lessons to our own.

Sharing lunch in the school canteen has also been a new experience for our students since the lunch system at school is quite different in Greece.

On another occasion, the students shared the material they had prepared with the students from the other schools in the exchange and had the opportunity to show to the partners their traditional music and dances.

Finally, they were amazed at the wealth of traditional food prepared for them the day before departure which gave them one more chance to “taste” the culture of the hosting country. They also said that they really enjoyed meeting the other students and practicing in English as well as using the Bulgarian words and phrases they have learnt before the visit . Getting to know the Cyrillic alphabet was also exciting as they were able to compare it to the Greek writing.
