On last Thursday October 16th,
Conchi Vizcaíno Pardo, Kids English teacher, and Maria Belén Sánchez Pardo, ESO
English teacher as well as Beda coordinator, attended to the “V CONGRESS OF BEDA
BILINGUALISM CATHOLIC SCHOOLS OF MADRID - GLOBAL COMMUNICATION". It took place at
school: " Nuestra señora de las Maravillas, de La Salle" in Madrid.
It was a full day, from 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Throughout the whole program,
several very interesting presentations and workshops, mainly based on new
methodologies and techniques to carry out a suitable implementation of
bilingualism, not only for our schools, but also, for our lessons. The presentations
were more theoretical and the workshops
more practical. But both very “realistic”.
The way of working was very
entertaining, because both presentations and workshops were worked in small working
groups of 4 or 5 people.And over exposure, we adapted all the information we
learnt to our schools and, at the same time, we exchanged experiences . It was really
very positive.In fact, we have come back with lots of new ideas to share with the
management team of our school.
This year, we have not only
attended to the event for giving us the "renewal" for our project, but also by
expanding it with a granted project "Beda Kids". Here you can see the
moment when we received”the strip” leaving evidence of a new annex in our
program of bilingualism “Beda”.
We had a lunch break and we took
the opportunity to greet Beda managers and representatives from schools near
our town. Also, we visited the different "stands" placed there about: Bilingual
books; Linguistic immersion; Cambridge exams…and so on.
I take this opportunity of
writing this article to thank the "school community": Families, teachers and
students, your collaboration in order to carry out this project so exciting and
positive for our school. And especially, as coordinator, I appreciate the great
support from the management team of our school.
We have just started our second
year at "Beda project" with great enthusiasm, new ideas, in order to make our school “an even better school”, if it is possible… and always sticking to our slogan:
"STEP BY STEP, BUT ALWAYS,
LOOKING AHEAD"
