CLIL: Aprendiendo idiomas en el taller

Este año tenemos la suerte de contar con unas compañeras del Departamento de Tecnología que participan en el Proyecto Pole llevando a cabo las actividades curriculares en los dos idiomas, inglés y francés. En este caso el idioma extranjero se convierte en la lengua vehicular para aprender otros contenidos no lingüísticos. Estas actividades se enmarcan dentro de la metodología AICLE o CLIL
(AICLE: "Aprendizaje Integrado de Contenidos en Lengua Extranjera; CLIL: "Content and Language Integrated Learning").
La actividad ha consistido en el estudio de una unidad didáctica de la programación de Tecnología de 2 y 3 de la E.S.O. en inglés y/o francés. Aquí os dejo unas fotos del trabajo realizado.

Our last day of the term has been devoted to artcrafts in creative workshops.

First we started a campaign to collect materials to be reused and recycled in the workshops- plastic bottles and bottle caps, toilet roll tubes, nespresso cups and egg boxes to make Christmas decorations , ornaments and other types of artcrafts like origami, earrings, bracelets, brooches.

We all have a great time and made pretty Christmas gifts for our friends and family!!

Comics of the story of Stingy Jack

In order to understand where this well-known popular Irish tradition comes from, we devoted one session to telling the story of Stingy Jack, the origin of the present famous pumpkin  we use on Halloween  to scare away the evil spirits.  

According to an Irish legend, Stingy Jack used to be a scoundrel fond of drinking and evil. On two occasions the Devil came for his soul but Jack played a trick on him avoiding death. When he finally died, unable to enter Heaven because of his evil behaviou in lifer, he went down to Hell's door where he met the Devil, who, keeping his word, took revenge on Jack and did not let him in. That's why Stingy Jack was punished to wander in the dark with a burning coal as a lantern for the rest of eternity.

Read this old Irish story about how the scoundrel "Stingy Jack" became " Jack-o-lantern' , the popular scary pumpkin. Click here for reading the story : Legend of Stingy Jack, 

Watch this video of a film short performing the legend.

       

As a go on activity, some students dramatised the story in front of their classmates but others preferred drawing a comic. Here you have some of the comic strips based on the Irish legend of Stingy Jack made by E.S.O artists.
