I RECOMMEND...


As part of the activities organised to celebrate the international Book Day (April 23rd) the school library has collected and exhibited reading recommendations from students, teachers and parents. Under the title "I recommend this book", some of our C.L.I.L. students have participated in the activity submitting their recommendations written in English.

GETTING ON WITH THE ASSISTANT

Elizabeth Kur, our language assistant, keeps performing her tasks in the school. These include helping C.L.I.L. teachers prepare their lessons and materials from a linguistic point of view, as well as assisting them in the classroom and  helping the English teachers introduce American culture in class through presentations, games and other activities.
She is in contact with all the students from ESO 1 to Bachillerato 1, and she is a strongly motivating element for the use of English in the school.
Good job, Elizabeth!

FIDIANA'S 3rd C.L.I.L. DAY


As planned, last Tuesday 9th April we our 3rd CLIL Day took place. All the day's activities (visiting the exhibition and speeches on "The Europe of Values", attending the play "Living a Celebration", playing the quiz show "Eurocontest") were quite successful, and both students and teachers had a good time.

 
 
Thanks should be given to the team of CLIL teachers for their hard work and dedication (the weeks and especially the day before the 9th was really "marathonian"), as well as Lola's help to put up the exhibition's settings and rescueing last year's score boards for the quiz show. Thanks also to the ESO students for taking an interest in the different activities of the day,

 
 
 
 

and thanks to Gema's Bachillerato students who performed the beautiful play "Living a Celebration"; to the ones who assisted the teachers in the different rooms during the quiz contest time, and also Pura´s Ethics and Citizenship students who gave those nice speeches at our particular "speakers' corner".
 
 
 
 
 

We are appointed to a new edition of Fdiana's C.L.I.L. Day next year!

3rd C.L.I.L. DAY AT I.E.S. FIDIANA


Next Tuesday, 9th April, I.E.S. Fidiana is going to celebrate its 3rd C.L.I.L. Day. The event, developed by the school teachers involved in the CLIL Programme, will be participated by students from all levels at the school. This year the Day's topic is The Europe of Values, and is an attempt to pay a tribute to 2012 Nobel Preace Prize winning European Union, highlighting various values and contributions of Europe to the world. Throughout the day's activities, extending from 10.30 up to 15.00 hours, the students are going to visit an exhibition of materials their school mates have created over the previous weeks and months, matching different aspects of the European Union with their C.L.I.L. subjects; in addition to this, they are also going to attend the play "Living a Celebration", performed by Bachillerato 1 students with music partially played by the pupils themselves; and, finally, they are going to take part in the quiz show Eurocontest, with questions prepared by the C.L.I.L. teachers.
All this will happen with the aim of promoting participation and collaboration between C.L.I.L. and non-C.L.I.L. students from different school levels, as well as showing the educational community, whose members are all invited to pop into the school and take part in this C.L.I.L. Day, the work being developed as part of this school Programme.

LAYLA WELCOME BACK TO FIDIANA
