A la nostra escola, creiem que l\u2019aprenentatge de l\u2019angl\u00e8s \u00e9s molt m\u00e9s que con\u00e8ixer una llengua: \u00e9s\u00a0descobrir nous mons, connectar amb altres cultures i ampliar horitzons<\/strong>. Per aix\u00f2, introdu\u00efm l\u2019angl\u00e8s des dels\u00a03 anys<\/strong>, aprofitant la gran capacitat natural d\u2019aprenentatge que tenen els infants en aquesta etapa. A trav\u00e9s del joc, la m\u00fasica, el moviment i la interacci\u00f3, fem que\u00a0l\u2019angl\u00e8s formi part del seu dia a dia de manera espont\u00e0nia i vivencial<\/strong>. Sense presses ni pressi\u00f3, sin\u00f3 amb emoci\u00f3 i curiositat, perqu\u00e8 la llengua es converteixi en una eina de comunicaci\u00f3 significativa. Sembrar l\u2019angl\u00e8s des de petits \u00e9s\u00a0regalar-los confian\u00e7a per expressar-se, obrir-los portes per al futur i, sobretot, despertar en ells les ganes d\u2019aprendre sense l\u00edmits<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A la nostra escola, creiem fermament en la import\u00e0ncia de\u00a0l\u2019educaci\u00f3 pluriling\u00fce<\/strong>, perqu\u00e8 els idiomes s\u00f3n una finestra oberta a noves oportunitats i una manera de connectar amb el m\u00f3n. Som una escola\u00a0reconeguda pel Departament d\u2019Educaci\u00f3 amb el\u00a0 projecte GEP,<\/strong>\u00a0el qual ens permet integrar diverses lleng\u00fces en el nostre dia a dia escolar. A trav\u00e9s d\u2019aquest projecte, els nostres infants tenen l\u2019oportunitat d\u2019aprendre i utilitzar\u00a0catal\u00e0, castell\u00e0 i angl\u00e8s\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0en contextos naturals i significatius, fomentant no nom\u00e9s la compet\u00e8ncia ling\u00fc\u00edstica, sin\u00f3 tamb\u00e9 el respecte i la comprensi\u00f3 intercultural. El GEP ens permet crear espais d\u2019aprenentatge on els infants no nom\u00e9s aprenen lleng\u00fces, sin\u00f3 que\u00a0entenen el m\u00f3n des de diferents perspectives<\/strong>, preparant-los per ser ciutadans globals.<\/p>\n

A l\u2019escola fomentem un aprenentatge natural i progressiu de la llengua. El temps d\u2019exposici\u00f3 a l\u2019angl\u00e8s augmenta a mesura que els infants creixen. A m\u00e9s a m\u00e9s, els infants de 1r i 2n de prim\u00e0ria fan 30 minuts m\u00e9s a la setmana dels jocs din\u00e0mics en angl\u00e8s, ampliant aix\u00ed un espai d\u2019educaci\u00f3 f\u00edsica en angl\u00e8s. Els infants de 4t de prim\u00e0ria participen en el programa d\u2019intercanvi E-twinning. Per \u00faltim els infants de 5\u00e8 i 6\u00e8 de prim\u00e0ria fan din\u00e0miques de teatre en angl\u00e8s (role play) posant l\u2019angl\u00e8s en un context real i l\u00fadic.\u00a0Creiem en un aprenentatge actiu, vivencial i motivador que permet als infants incorporar l\u2019angl\u00e8s de manera natural i efectiva.\u00a0Let\u2019s learn together!<\/strong><\/p>\n

A m\u00e9s a m\u00e9s de les estones sistem\u00e0tiques d\u2019angl\u00e8s al llarg de la setmana, les quals es complementen amb el GEP i l\u2019auxiliar d\u2019angl\u00e8s subvencionada per l\u2019Ajuntament de Matadepera i que el plus d\u2019intervenci\u00f3 d\u20191h a cada grup classe, tamb\u00e9 dibuixem moments espec\u00edfics d\u2019ampliaci\u00f3 per a cada trimestre, sent els seg\u00fcents:<\/p>\n

1r Trimestre: Sortides en angl\u00e8s i estades en angl\u00e8s.<\/strong>
Els infants realitzen\u00a0sortides en angl\u00e8s<\/strong>, on poden practicar la llengua en contextos reals i divertits, mentre descobreixen nous espais i aprenen a comunicar-se en situacions quotidianes. A m\u00e9s, a\u00a03r i 5\u00e8 de prim\u00e0ria<\/strong>, organitzem una\u00a0estada d\u2019una nit en angl\u00e8s<\/strong>, una experi\u00e8ncia \u00fanica per fomentar l\u2019\u00fas de la llengua en un ambient m\u00e9s dist\u00e8s i amb activitats immersives, tot gaudint d\u2019un temps especial amb els companys\/es.<\/p>\n

2n Trimestre: English Days.<\/strong>
Celebrem els nostres\u00a0English Days<\/strong>, moments en els quals els diferents cicles de manera gradual es transformen en un espai d\u2019immersi\u00f3 ling\u00fc\u00edstica<\/strong>. Al llarg d\u2019aquests dies, els infants participen en activitats, jocs, tallers i din\u00e0miques en angl\u00e8s, tot vivint l\u2019idioma de manera total i divertida. \u00c9s una oportunitat perqu\u00e8 l\u2019angl\u00e8s sigui part del seu dia a dia de manera natural i apassionant.<\/p>\n

3r Trimestre: Teatre en angl\u00e8s.<\/strong>
Els nostres infants gaudeixen de\u00a0representacions teatrals en angl\u00e8s<\/strong>\u00a0a l\u2019escola, una manera creativa i emocionant d\u2019aprendre. A trav\u00e9s del teatre, els infants poden sentir la llengua d\u2019una manera expressiva i din\u00e0mica, millorant la seva comprensi\u00f3 i flu\u00efdesa de manera l\u00fadica i entretinguda.<\/p>\n

Apostem per un\u00a0aprendre jugant i vivint l\u2019angl\u00e8s en contextos reals<\/strong>, perqu\u00e8 els nostres infants no nom\u00e9s aprenguin la llengua, sin\u00f3 que la visquin com una eina per expressar-se, connectar-se amb els altres i gaudir del seu aprenentatge.\u00a0Ensenyar idiomes \u00e9s ensenyar a obrir-se al m\u00f3n, a descobrir noves idees i a comunicar-se de manera m\u00e9s lliure i rica.<\/strong><\/p>\n

At our school, we believe that learning English is much more than just mastering a language: it\u2019s about discovering new worlds, connecting with other cultures, and broadening horizons. That\u2019s why we introduce English from the age of 3, taking advantage of the natural learning abilities that children have at this stage. Through play, music, movement, and interaction, we make English a part of their daily lives in a spontaneous and experiential way. Without pressure or rush, but with excitement and curiosity, we turn the language into a meaningful communication tool. Planting the seed of English at an early age is giving them the confidence to express themselves, opening doors for the future, and, above all, sparking in them a love of learning without limits.<\/p>\n

At our school, we strongly believe in the importance of\u00a0plurilingual education<\/strong>, as languages are a window to new opportunities and a way to connect with the world. We are a school recognized by the Department of Education for our\u00a0GEP (Gran Escola Pluriling\u00fce)<\/strong>\u00a0project, which allows us to integrate several languages into our daily school life. Through this project, our children have the opportunity to learn and use\u00a0Catalan, Spanish, and English<\/strong>\u00a0in natural and meaningful contexts, promoting not only linguistic competence but also respect and intercultural understanding. The GEP project helps us create learning spaces where children not only learn languages but understand the world from different perspectives, preparing them to become global citizens.<\/p>\n

At school, we foster a natural and progressive language learning process. The exposure to English increases as the children grow. Furthermore, students in\u00a01st and 2nd grade<\/strong>\u00a0have 30 extra minutes a week of dynamic games in English, thus expanding the physical education space into English. Students in\u00a04th grade<\/strong>\u00a0participate in the\u00a0E-twinning exchange program<\/strong>, and students in\u00a05th and 6th grades<\/strong>\u00a0engage in\u00a0English theater dynamics (role play)<\/strong>, putting English into real and fun contexts. We believe in active, experiential, and motivating learning that allows children to incorporate English in a natural and effective way.\u00a0Let\u2019s learn together!<\/strong><\/p>\n

In addition to the regular English lessons throughout the week, which are complemented by the GEP and an English assistant funded by the Matadepera City Council (providing 1 hour of intervention per class), we also design specific extension moments for each trimester, as follows:<\/p>\n

1st Trimester: English outings and overnight stays<\/strong>
Children participate in\u00a0English outings<\/strong>, where they can practice the language in real and fun contexts, while discovering new places and learning to communicate in everyday situations. Additionally, in\u00a03rd and 5th grade<\/strong>, we organize an\u00a0overnight stay in English<\/strong>, a unique experience to promote the use of the language in a more relaxed atmosphere with immersive activities, while enjoying a special time with their classmates.<\/p>\n

2nd Trimester: English Days<\/strong>
We celebrate our\u00a0English Days<\/strong>, where different school levels gradually transform into an\u00a0immersion environment<\/strong>. During these days, children engage in activities, games, workshops, and dynamics in English, experiencing the language fully and enjoyably. It\u2019s an opportunity for English to become a natural and exciting part of their daily lives.<\/p>\n

3rd Trimester: English Theater<\/strong>
Our students enjoy\u00a0English theater performances<\/strong>\u00a0at school, a creative and exciting way to learn. Through theater, children experience the language expressively and dynamically, improving their comprehension and fluency in a playful and engaging way.<\/p>\n

We are committed to learning through play and experiencing English in real contexts, so that our children not only learn the language but live it as a tool to express themselves, connect with others, and enjoy their learning. Teaching languages is teaching how to open up to the world, discover new ideas, and communicate more freely and richly.<\/p>\n

eTwinning at the school<\/h1>\n

This is a European Project that puts two or more schools in contact. This is not only a linguistic exchange but is also a sharing cultural because we belong to different cultures that webring together and share. We work with different resources such as: presentations, videos, posters\u2026 and we use English to communicate with our new mates from the other countries.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We are Etwinning School! Being an Etwinning School means being committed to its project. Our school gives importance to work with other European schools by learning through global methodologies which includea range of cultural and language approaches.<\/p>\n

For this reason, Etwinning has valued our task awarding Escola Joan Torredemer Canela with the distinctive label \u201cEtwinning School\u201d. The principle behind this new label is that Etwinning appraised the school involvement with the project.<\/p>\n
