I come here with the information of the week!

Hi everyone! I am Silvia and this week it is my turn of giving you the news. Yes, you have guessed it, I am the JOURNALIST!

This week we have continued working in the LOMCE and, at last, we have done the GAME. Because of that, this week has been a bit hard for our stars, but they have worked very hard and we are very proud of them.

On Monday 20th we developed the strategy that we went to use during the week in order to learn all the questions that our colleagues had posted the week before and, for doing the work more fair for the stars too, the coach (Marina Crevillén) asked us in order that our stars were studying all the week and in the weekend they only had to revise the questions.

And, finally… the big day arrives!

On Monday 27th we started the game using a version of the traditional game “Snakes and Ladders” in which after each movement, Linda did a question to our stars and, if they pass, continue playing and, if they fail, the turn pass to the stars of other group. Meanwhile the rest of the group was encouraging to our stars, each group in their own way, all of them very interesting and originals.


Finally, on Thursday 30th, as we could not finish the game the previous day, we did the final part of the game and I must say that, at least in our case, we have lived the game with more stress that the previous day, I suppose that because it was the end of the game and, although we had a good position, the situation could change in any moment. But I have now said enough. Do you want to know who won? Well… the winner was (sound of drums)… POWER TEACHERS!


Yes, we were the winners! Can you believe it? We are very proud of our stars (Alba and Anthea) because they did a great job and even if they had not won, we know that they made a big effort and we must be very proud and grateful to them because of that.

Now I am going to recommend you two different blogs.

On the one way we have the blog PUERTAS A LA IMAGINACIÓN, created by a teacher of art, although, even if the blog is focused on this subject, we can find a lot of tools and activity that we can apply to other subjects too. For this reason I have chosen this blog, because in it you can find manual activities, activities in which the children can use the ICT, tools 2.0, digital books about plastic arts and a lot of things more that the teachers (and even the mothers, fathers and/or babysitters in some occasions and aspects) can use in order to make the teaching and the learning more dynamic, funny and modern. Are you interested? Well, here you can find more information about it: http://puertasalaimaginacion.blogspot.com.es/



On the other hand this week I am going to recommend the blog of the group KEEP CALM AND KEEP ORGANIZED. I have chosen this blog because I think that they deserve it (and not only because they have had the second place in the LOMCE’s game, although congratulations for this) because in the posts on their blog, I can see their hard-work and I think that the way in which they explain the activities of each week is fantastic. In addition, I love the blog’s design too. I think that it has a great style and ha letter clear and easy to read, a factor that in my opinion is very important. So if you want to look around it, here is the direction: http://keepcalmandkeeporganized.blogspot.com.es/


The analyst is here! CONGRATULATIONS POWER TEACHERS!


Hello everybody! I'm Rebeca Cascales Ribera and this week I'm the ANALYST. As you can see in other posts of analysts, the person in charge of this role value every week's work, in an individual and collective way.

These weeks, we're working into the same topic, LOMCE, but in different activities. This is very important in our degree because the laws are in continuous changing and we must know how to investigate a curriculum, when we become teachers, because I'm sure that it will change and it won't be the LOMCE one.

The week's activity was doing a training for our next week's starts to study the six topics' questions and the Snake and Ladders' session.

To start with how the activity was, I have to say that it's one of the most interesting activities that we've done, it is very dynamic and funny for some components of the group, overall to the "cheerleaders". The worst of this activity was studying every questions for our stars, they have to be the responsible of answer in our name and I have to say that they have done it very well.

One of the best moment of this activity was the moment of Monday 27th when our stars started to guess the answer and they guessed 6 straight questions. It was very exciting because we were encourage them to follow and it was a good moment for every Power Teachers. And of course, the best moment of this activity was the moment on Thursday 30th when our stars got win the game and it was so stimulating for us. We had achieved what every member of the class wants. On the other side, the worst moment of the session of today (Thursday 30th) was waiting for the last question, we were so nervous and of course, our stars, who were waiting for it anxiously.

The most important of this activity has been learning in a different methodology as the usual one about the LOMCE. This topic is one of the topics that we work in some subjects. In this Organisation and Educational Resources we are seeing it in a general view and we are knowing all the branches. In other subjects such as Diversity, we are seeing it in another perspective, for example we're focusing on the support measures that LOMCE offers to the children with some difficulties.

Regarding the social connexion, this activity called Snake and Ladders is very similar to the nowadays television programmes. I think that every programmes with questions and answers are very interesting because there is very tension and that makes spectators are more inside the game, as we lived in class on Monday 27th and on Thursday 30th. It was like living one of this television programme in our own class.

Now, I'm going to reflect about the working way of this last weeks. When we started the LOMCE topic, we was working by groups such as Power Teachers, Power Puff Teachers... but then, the groups were mixed, divided and the way of work changed, at the beginning it was a bit difficult because we had got used to work with our group and suddenly it had changed. By the time, we worked better and better and this will help us in a future to do whatever with whoever always. Now, I'm going to focus in my group, I'm very proud of them because although we sometimes have some difficulties, we always achieve what we have proposed and this gives us strength to get ahead.

CONGRATULATIONS POWER TEACHERS!

I hope you really enjoy with us and with our posts! Thank you for reading and... Visit us!

Let's analyse a bit!

Hi bloggers! I'm Anthea and I have been the analyst during this task. As you already know, my current role consists on control how we work, not only in group, but also by ourselves.

This time, the task was about the same topic as the week before: the LOMCE, the Spanish Education Law,  which was divided into six parts in our task. But actually the work consisted on making four questions for each topic, so, in total, 24.
As future teachers (or at least we are supposed to be), we have to know what the current law ask us to teach and what children have to learn.

It has been good having more time to prepare this activity, because we had some very hard weeks and this time we have had more time to discuss among us and try to do it better than before. The best thing of this activity has been having the same topic than the week before and realise that we remember many things about the topic we worked in. In this way, it has been more dynamic sharing what we knew, because we did not have to look at the documents as frequently as the times we didn't know almost anything.

But not everything has been a piece of cake! When we though we would be able to finish an activity without any added difficulty, right at the end, we realised that the cards were badly printed, because the lines were not in the place they should have to be. So we basically wasted our money. In order not to spend our money once more, we decided not to printed again and we saw that the other alternative was the use of the correction fluid, although maybe it has not been the best choice, as we have realised.

As students and future teachers we don't stop learning and this week we have keep learning about this topic, but mainly how to make good questions about something. We have learnt to create not easy questions, but a bit more difficult ones. Furthermore, we have learnt to be more cooperative and to give opinions and advises to our colleagues. So this is something we should conserved as a group for the following weeks.

We have to know what the law says (as I have mentioned before), because it is where the contents which have to be taught are. So, in part it is good to be familiar with it; but, on the other hand, it is difficult for anyone because of the continuous changes of the law, each time that a new political party starts directing our country. It good be a really good point having an educational law as the Finnish one (for example), since Finland is one of the best countries that a person can study in.

Finally, I would like to point out that our education it is not a joke or a game, it is something necessary for getting a job, improving our life level or even just for feeling good about oneself.
