Hi everybody! Do you miss me? I am Silvia and
this week (as when we started) I have been the star of our group.
I must say that this week my work has been
relatively easy because I have been evaluating the questions about the Topic 1
with the rest of my group during the first two hours of class. We have done
this activity under the supervision of some members of the Busy Bees’ group. In
order to do this activity we have divided the questions of each group and we
have selected the questions of one group individually and have read them. After
we have expressed to the rest of our group our opinion about the questions that
we have read and we have done a little summary about each one too. Finally, we
have filled out the different surveys about the questions of each group
together.
Secondly, in the third hour of class we have
worked with a part of the Power Puff Teachers’ group in order to determinate
what questions about the Topic 4 were duplicated and united them in one simple
question. We have divided all the questions into three groups and in three
groups of three we have analysed them. After all, when the groups have finished
our part, we have compared the final questions that each group has obtained in
order to create the final list of questions. I must say that this activity has
been worse for me because there were some questions that were very similar but
they did not say exactly the same, so we did not know if unite them or leave
them behind. In spite of everything, finally we can establish these questions
about the Topic 4:
- - A family with two children live in an area with small population centres. To what type of provision would they belong? Explain it briefly.
- - Angel is a child with some health problems, and because of this he is in the hospital every day and he can’t go to school with his peers. What solution can be given to Angel so he can’t keep up with his school mates’ academic level? Explain it. What is the organization of this type of education?
- - Can a student of primary education that does not go to school receive home teaching programs in her or his house? Why or why not?
- - Can Moroccan students that are four years old schools be in the target group of Spanish-Moroccan programs?
- - Determine the measures of educational attention which are needed according to LOMCE to facilitate the schooling integration of a Moroccan pupil who doesn’t speak Spanish and recently he has accessed in a Spanish school tardly do to he recently arrival from his country, you must determine the specific programs developed and the objectives that LOMCE want to get.

What type of schooling would be the most appropriate for this child to be able to attend school? Describe in detail the basic resources the LOMCE would provide him.

- - There are two kinds of distance education, the "distance education" and "flexible studies in primary education". Related to the second one, what is the purpose of this type? Who can adopt this type of education? Do the pupils of this kind of studies have the same curriculum as the official curriculum? (Repeated by 2 groups)

- - Which are the main differences between CRA and CRIE focused on organization?
- - Which kind if bilingual teaching does not teach pre-primary?
- - Who is charged of formalizing the agreement with companies whose itinerancy is permanent during the school year?
Finally, I
must say that I have enjoyed working with members of other groups in this
activity and comparing my opinion with the others. However, I have to say that
in the second activity, when we have compared all the questions about the Topic
4, besides the problem about the similar questions that I have mentioned
before, I have felt a little overwhelmed because, as there were a lot of
questions and we were a lot of people, it has been a bit difficult order all
the questions, although at the end we have tried to do it in the best way
possible.
