Seminar on Neurolearning at Del Carmen School

A most interesting lecture --“CeRebrating Learning”-- given by Ms Rosana Fernández Coto, member at the Cognitive Neurolearning Association. A great study on Emotional Cognitive Competence and Learning Styles, Neuroplasticity and Motivated Learning. We were instructed on Resonant and dissonant environments and on what to do to achieve a brain-compatible environment.  Undoubtedly, a seminar that will strike our lives and that of our students.

3rd Form is working with animals.

We are working with animals and we classify them into pets, wild, farm and sea animals. We play games to help the children remember the animal names and how to write them in our dictation classes. They will surely get an EXCELLENT!

Soon we will be working with the classification of animals according to their habitat and the food they eat.

Kinder 5A

We have been working with clothes. We have played a lot and we have shared many things with our partners. We have learnt many words!! Then, we coloured a picture according to what Goofy told us.

4th form A: Acting Out!

Through Literature we recycle the vocabulary and Grammar learnt in every unit. We have a comic called   “Earth Explorer,” that helps us reinforce oral work and dramatization.

 

3rd year I: Reading and Writing time!

Students read a letter published on a Magazine Problem Page and write their response.

Students work in groups of four. Each group writes a paragraph (Introduction, Follow Up and Conclusion) for a Letter of Advice. Students share their production on the board. Finally, we get a complete informal letter.

2nd year II - Ability and Permission

First year students have been studying Modal Verbs and their different meanings.  Their board shows their classroom consolidation work to grasp the topic.  Well done!!!!

2nd year I: "TASTE"

Second year students and Miss Karina Mendoza read ‘Taste’- a great short story by Roald Dahl. Richard Pratt, one of the main characters, is a famous gourmet and enjoys showing off his knowledge of fine wine and food. Students worked really hard gathering information about wine producing areas, characteristics of different type of wines and their production systems. They made an extraordinary exhibition about it.
