TASK 7.2

This week we explored the 5 different types of relationships that exists at school. After reading a chapter to understand these, we created an scenario for each one and our colleages  had to perform them on Wednesday. The different scenarios that we invented are:


Teacher-student connection


While explaining the different types of animals in a third grade of Primary School class, Abdel, a muslim child, said to all the class that in his house they don't eat pig. All the students started asking him why and the teacher Inés, to clarify all their doubts explained them that depending on the culture and sometimes the religion, people eat some animals that others don't. For example in Asia is usual to eat insects and here in Europe we don't do it.  


Connections between peers


Pablo is a child who suffers bullying inside the classroom, all the children joke of him. This harms him in his academic development, since he feels depressed and unmotivated. To half of the year, Julia begins to approach him, to play with him and to establish a confidence relation.  Due to this, Pablo's development increases since he feels happier and self- confident.


Connections within the learning context.


Fernando, who is a teacher in 6th grade of Primary School, has realised that his students are uncomfortable with his way of teaching, besides they do not acquire well the content needed in this subject. He became aware of this situation, apart from what he has observed, also because there are a lot of students that make him questions during his lessons. For that reason, Fernando has decided to change his teaching methodology, evaluating their students and indeed, giving their lessons through the execution of projects.

Connections beyond the classroom


In Maria’s school, every year is celebrated the foundation anniversary, so they are very excited. Every year, Ana, a gym teacher, goes to the school and takes a “zumba” class; on the other hand Alberto, a volleyball coach , organises matches between students and teachers. So each group makes an activity and later they'll exchange the activities.


Connections within learning


We are in the first year of Primary Education, in the class of Physical Education.
When the children arrive to this level, they already know how to walk, run or even jump coordinately. What we are going to do is motivate this abilities taking into account what they already know (walking,running..) because if they won´t know how to do it they wouldn’t be able to perform the games correctly, so by doing this games they will develop the knowledge that the already have.

An example of the games could be ‘catch after you’ or rope-jumping.

FACILITATOR WEEK 8

Hi everyone! I´m Marta and this week I have had to be the facilitator of my team.

We continue with the seventh task, but this week we did the second part, that consisted on reading the document that the teacher gave us, in order to undertand the five complexities that are in the relationship between the teacher and the student in the class and beyond.

First of all, we distribute the roles between the members of the group.

On Monday we started to read the document each one in their house to understand perfectly the complexities.

Once we have a clear idea about each complexity, we met in my school in Tuesday afternoon and we explain each other what we have understood to have more facilities at the time to create the scenarios. We created the scenarios of each complexity very quickly, also because it was something that we liked enough, we manage to do it rapidly and without problems.

On Wednesday morning, each one of our members had to go with a different star of other group that was the director of the film. We record the scene that had done the group of the star and we have enjoyed a lot. Finally the star have to upload the film to youtube.

JOURNALIST WEEK 8

Hello!! My name is Emma and this week I´m the journalist of the group. During this week we have worked on our 7.2 task, we have continued with the work taht we did last week.
This week we are exploring about what means complexity and how this affect the relationships at school.
And after and then we had us to divide by groups and choose a scenario and make a brief representation in a time of 3:50 seconds.
Here I´m going to explain and to show you some pictures of the moments that we were working on the task.

On Monday we do not meet because we had divided the information by groups, Victoria, Sara, Andrea and Emma  were responsible to read the complexities two, four and five,. And Marta, Clara and Ana were responsable to read the complexities one and three.

But on Tuesday we met  and each of us explained what had understood about the complexitys and after we thought  a stage for each of them.

 And this week Sara was the star of this task:





 Firstly, I commented in the blog of architeachers. https://goo.gl/i5cTAc

And also I have commented in a blog that I think that it is interesting. https://goo.gl/PSB0RM


ANALYST WEEK 8

Hello! I am Andrea, and this week I´m the analyst of the group. This week we have worked in the second part of the task that we started last week, is the task 7.2, called "Relationships in a Complex Context".

The best part of this activity has been the moment when we had to imagine and create a scenario for the cases that we have study during the task, because we had to think and active our creative part of the brain. For that reason, it has been not only the best, but also the most complicated part of the task. Anyway, we have got a good result for the task as we orked really well as a group and we complement each other with our ideas.

We have done a good job because we obtained the expected results of the task. I think this may have been largely due to the way we started the task. We decided to divide the work,; so Emma, Victoria, Sara and Andrea were responsabile to read the complexities two, four and five in order to summarize the information of those documents; Clara, Ana and Marta read the complexities one and three, also doing a summarize.
In this task we have worked fluently, since this task did not require a great effort of manual labor.

To conclude, with this activity we have learnt what means complexity and how this affect the relationships at school. This activity has been interesting because is something that we are going to deal with in our daily lives in a future.




TRANSLATOR WEEK 8

Hi everyone! I'm Clara and this eighth week I've been the translator of my group.

Although in this task we didn’t have many problems with new vocabulary, the key concepts we have been working with were a bit confusing, that’s why we needed to clarify their meaning. So, here you have it!

Teacher-student connection:  it is the set of interactions between the teacher and each of his/her students and also with the whole group. These relationships can affect positively or negatively in the teaching learning process.

Connections between peers: all the relationships between classmates that allow them to share ideas, beliefs, knowledge… that impact on the learning process.

Connections within the learning context: it means that the learning process is also influenced by the history, the culture and the relationships between all the members of the school.

Connections beyond the classroom: other interactions that students have outside the classroom that also create knowledge.

Connections within learning: knowledge that students have about many concepts which is used to create new ideas by adding unknown information. These type of connections also reinforce the previous concepts.


I hope you like it and… THANKS FOR WATCHING!💖🌵
