CONCLUSION OF THE SUBJECT

Hello readers,

I'm here again for the last time because the term ends. More tan three months it's difficult to resume in just one post of the blog because there are a lot of interesting activities that we have done that for sure will be very important for the future.

Some of the most imporant values that I have learnt of this subject is that we have to lose the fear for talk in public, wear fancy dress, use different registers of the voice... We also achieve other goals like be able to create activity for students of Primary Education (related with CLIL) in which we had to show a tale in a funny way trying to trasmit the knwoledge through the WORKSHOPS.

I would like to highlight too the possibility to comment things that maybe in class we can't commment for the time or because we don't find the moment to tell our points of view. Anyway I have read lots of interesting blogs about educational topics related with education. For that reason I decided to create a post related with the video of Ken Robinson that I have seen in my own that deals with the problem of ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). I told the story of my older brother who suffered of this disorder and the teacher told him that he had to be medicated. However my parents decided not to do it and today he can proudly say that he is an engineer of telecommunications.

The possibility of sharing ideas have allowed us to grow as a future teachers because our job will consist not only in teach things, we have to learn also to listen what other people have to say because sometimes we can be wrong and other people can have the key for help us in this difficult process of TEACHING.

The overall impresión of this blog activity is quite good and probably in the highest courses of primary education we can do activities like that,

POETRY BOOK



Hi again readers, here I am to write you about a work that we did last week in which we had to develop our creativity in order to créate FOUR POEMS.

The poems that we had to do were like:

- List of Poems: they are started by writing a list of things. What makes them literacy is to think creatively and organise the list in an interesting way. (Raquel's ppt said). From my point of view a List of Poems is like a brain storming ordenated, it means that the list that you previously have done you put in the right order trying to be creative.

 

Riddle Poem:This type of poems are a fantastic opportunity to work on logical thinking and foster high order thinking skills. The idea is that we are going to look at the world from a new perspective, and the readers should guess what we are referring to. (Raquel's ppt said). For me this kind of poem consist on enter in the mind of other people/animal/objects. From this strange perspective the creativy is open to write about common daily things.

 
 
 
Haiku: They are a Japanese poetic form. It is condensed and it follows some rules:
Use three lines of up 17 syllables, traditionally 5-7-5 form (Raquel's ppt said). It is related to a single image (usually nature or the seasons). From my point of view it is a poem that consist on write from an ideal perspective of enviroment.
 
 
 
 
 

Letter Poem: They are started by writing a letter. The original and creative work comes from choosing an innovative perspective (Raquel's ppt said). This poem consists on send a letter to someone using the poetry for transmit in a creative way one feeling or fact.
