THEORETICAL JUSTIFICATION FOR THE PROJECT

The demands and needs of 21st-century society have brought changes to the school environment, preparing pupils to live in an ever more international, multicultural, multilingual and technologically more advanced world. As a member of the European Union, our country is committed to the promotion of the knowledge of other community languages as is reflected in one of the objectives of the Lisbon Strategy. Meanwhile, the Council of Europe in the European Common Reference Framework for the learning of foreign languages establishes directives for both the learning of languages as well as for the assessment of competence in different languages. These guidelines have been a key reference in the elaboration of the curriculum.

The Royal Decree of Minimum Education states that Primary Education will help develop in children the skills that will enable them to:

a). Know and appreciate the values and norms of coexistence and prepare for active citizenship and respect for the human rights and pluralism inherent in a democratic society.

b). Develop habits of individual and team work, effort and responsibility as well as attitudes of self-confidence, critical sense, personal initiative, curiosity, creativity and interest in learning

c) Acquire skills for the prevention and peaceful resolution of conflict, enabling them to function independently in the family and household, as well as in the social groups with which they will relate.

d) Know, understand and respect different cultures and differences between people, equal rights and opportunities for men and women and the non-discrimination of disabled people.

e) Know and make appropriate use of the Spanish language and, in its case, the co-official language of the Autonomous Community and develop reading habits

f) Acquire, in at least one foreign language, skills to enable them to express and understand simple messages and function in everyday situations.

g) Develop basic Maths skills and initiative in solving problems that require elementary operations of calculation, geometry and estimates, as well as in being able to apply them to situations in everyday life.

h) Get to know and appreciate their natural environment both social and cultural, as well as the possibilities for action and care of it.

i) Get started in the use of information and communication technology to develop a critical mind to the messages they receive and produce.

j) Use representation and artistic expression and start to build visual proposals.

k) Value the importance of hygiene and the acceptance of one’s own body as well as that of others, respecting differences and using physical education and sport to encourage both personal and social development.

l) Know and appreciate those animals closest to us and adopt forms of behaviour that contribute to their preservation and care.

m) Develop emotional skills in all areas of personality in their relations with others and an attitude opposed to violence, prejudice and gender stereotype.

OBJECTIVES

Objectives of the area of foreign language

The area of foreign language is designed to train students to understand, speak and talk, read and write. Most of the learning opportunities are in the school environment. This circumstance demands the inclusion of diverse contents removed from the academic world such as those of social relations, mass media and the literary world (properly adapted)

The axis of the area of foreign language, in the curriculum and in our project, is the achievement of an effective oral and written communicative competence in meaningful social contexts which will enable students to express themselves more and more efficiently and correctly encompassing all possible uses and registers as well as the use of communication strategies both verbal and non verbal.

The Royal Decree of Minimum Education establishes that the objective of the teaching of a foreign language during this stage will be the development of the following abilities:

1. Listening to and understanding verbal messages in various kinds of interactions, using the information provided for the execution of diverse specific tasks related to students’ experience.

2. Expressing themselves orally and interacting in simple and routine within a given content and development, using procedures and verbal and non verbal language and adopting a rspectful and co-operative attitude.

3. Producing short simple texts with various purposes on topics covered in class with the aid of patterns.

4. Reading and understanding various texts, related to their experience and hobbies, texts to extract general and specific information in accordance with a specific purpose.

5. Learning to use with increasing autonomy all the means at their disposal, including new technology, to obtain information and to communicate in the foreign language.

6. Valuing the foreign language, and languages in general, as a means of communication and understanding between people of diverse origins and cultures and as a tool for learning different contents.

7. Expressing a receptive and confident attitude vis-à-vis their own ability to learn and use the foreign language.

8. Using knowledge and prior experience of other languages for a faster, more efficient and independent acquisition of the target language.

9. Identifying the phonetic aspects of rhythm, intonation and pronunciation, as well as linguistic structures and lexical aspects of the target language, using them as basic elements of communication.

Objectives of the area of foreign language and its integration within our profect

Oxford University Press – Galaxy 3-4 11

The aim of the area of foreign language is to prepare people who can use it to understand, speak, converse, read and write, so its use should be the starting point from the moment teaching begins. The introduction of English in the first year of Primary Education is an experience which is currently being adopted in numerous schools, and stems from the premise that learning a second language at an early age contributes to the development of basic abilities. Primary education begins with a very elementary competence in the target language, so, throughout this stage, the knowledge, ability and experience in the languages the children know will be extremely important in order to understand and construct meanings, structures and strategies when participating in acts of communication.

The elaboration of our project, which affects the organisation and contents of the programme, is closely linked to the psycho pedagogic principles which serve as a foundation for the curricular design of Primary Education. It is our aim that our pupils acquire communicative competence in English via games and motivating activities, which at the same time promote effective learning. Whilst engaged in these activities they use the language to obtain information, express their own opinions and relate with others in a natural way. It is a question of reinforcing the students’ ability to perceive the knowledge of a foreign language not just as one more subject, but as the reflection of an outside world of which we all form a part. The objective, insofar as is possible, is to globalise experiences whilst not forgetting the specific stage of learning in which students find themselves.

Methodological bases that inspire our work are as followsThe starting point in the students’ learning is their previous knowledge; focusing on this may seem close and familiar to the students but with an aspect of fantasy to strike a balance between safety/well-being and interest/imagination. The student can transfer learned concepts and strategies to build meaning and attribute meaning to what he/she learns (Starting with what he knows and making hypotheses to make rules to help interiorize the new system) thus, enhancing their personal growth, development and socialization.

Communicative situations that include humour and play capture the motivation of students and facilitate learning; It is therefore important to take into account the importance of songs and stories, the features of the characters, illustrations and even sound effects

Children learn in different ways and at different speeds; for this reason our project is devised to be used with flexibility so that all group members can take part and find activities to which they can apply know-how and aptitude, facilitating the development of one's own daily awareness of achievement and progress. Our project provides extra support for those who need it, taking into account those cases in which progress does not respond to expectancy as well as those who may excel in their goal achievement and, due to lack in programmed activities, lose interest and become unmotivated. To remedy these situations the programme includes extension activities for the more advanced and reinforcement for those who may get bogged down at any time. These activities are in the Activity Book (at the end of the book: ’Extra Writing’ for each unit), in the photocopiable materials and the Resources Pack and notes in the Teacher’s Book.

Children’s learning is more intense and effective when they are active; they need to exercise their action skills. Each of the units in our project provides a wide range of activities and teaching resources for participation. The student is the keystone in the learning/teaching process but his/her constructive attitude depends on the teacher’s intervention. This intervention must be both active and reflective and adapt to the student’s level using input to help the student interaction and feedback to contextualise activities and render meaningful answers with a view to promoting communication strategies, consolidating those already acquired and the admission of errors.

Consider both progress and the error as something natural in the learning process. Errors occur as a result of the underlying dynamism in comprehension and progressive mastering of the new language. We understand that errors occur when the child tries to anticipate the functioning of the language or when he transfers rules from his mother tongue in a natural process of acquisition. It is important to note the difference between error and mistake. Errors are believed to be systematic failings due to lack of knowledge. These errors will be dealt with when finishing oral interactions, in groups, taking into account that they take time to correct. A mistake is an occasional failure due to lack of attention which may even befall native speakers. Mistakes are not worthwhile correcting since they are not relevant to the teaching/learning process.

The Assessment of individual and collective progress is an important factor in ensuring quality; We have provided an English language portfolio with photocopiable Self Assessment sheets (Teacher’s Book) which will enable teachers to monitor their students’ progress. It is devised so that it can be adapted by teachers to their own specific needs

Globalised learning will generate an apprehension of reality as a whole. Our project takes this into account offering activities related with other areas in the curriculum beginning with learning about the child, then moving on to the world around him; house, school, environment and society in general. In each unit, this development is reflected in those topics related to other areas in the curriculum; Environmental Education, Artistic Education, Mathematics, Physical Education, etc.

CONTENTS

The contents have been grouped in blocks to sort the elements of analysis of a complex reality, in relation to four key competences with specific characteristics and needs in terms of the teaching and learning process: oral language; written language; the constituents of the linguistic system, their functioning and relationships, and the social and cultural dimension of the foreign language.Although oral and written language are two different manifestations of the same capacity, each requires different skills and knowledge and is therefore dealt with separately.

Block 1. Listen, speak and converse

The linguistic model provided by the school is the first source of knowledge and learning of the language. The discourse employed in the classroom is both the vehicle for and the object of learning, which is why the Curriculum and our project attend to both the knowledge of linguistic elements and the ability to use them for other communicative tasks.

In addition, the linguistic model offered should be provided by a number of different speakers in order to reflect the variation and nuances which an environmental linguistic model offers speakers both in phonetic and prosodic terms and in the choice of specific expressions in recognised communicative situations. Hence the presence in the Curriculum and our project of the use of conventional audiovisual media and of IT and communication technology.

The contents of this block for the second cycle for the areas of foreign language in accordance with the Real Decreto de Enseñanzas Mínimas are as follows:

Block 1. Understand, speak and converse

Listen to and understand progressively more complex oral messages, such as instruc-tions or explanations, controlled oral exchanges or recordings on audiovisual or IT sources to extract global or specific information.

Oxford University Press – Galaxy 3-4 13

Page 14: Programación Galaxy 3-4 3º-4º Prim. English Destacado…  · Web viewLook for words in a word search and use them to complete sentences (AB p. 5) Read and write the new syntactic

Oral exchange in real or simulated situations providing verbal and non-verbal responses requiring a choice from a limited number of possibilities, in progressively less controlled contexts.

Production of previously seen oral texts via active participation in sketches, songs, recitals, plays, controlled exchanges… or prepared by means of prior work with assis-tance and models, showing interest in expressing themselves orally in individual and group activities.

Development of basic strategies to improve comprehension and oral expression: use of visual and non-verbal context and of previous knowledge of the subject or the situation transferred from the languages they know to the target language.

Assessment of the foreign language as an instrument of communication.

Block 2. Read and Write

This aims at discursive competence in writing. In the target language written texts are also models of textual composition and practice and acquisition of linguistic elements. The progressive use of written language will depend on the degree of knowledge of the code, which is directly related to the degree of security which the said code offers in the graphic representation of the sounds of the language. To overcome this lack of security, the Curriculum and our project include strategies and resources such as the use of dictionaries and other conventional or digital means of consultation for the comprehension and composition of every type of text.

The contents of this block for the second cycle for the areas of foreign language in accordance with the Real Decreto de Enseñanzas Mínimas are as follows:

Reading and understanding different texts, digital or on paper, adapted to the pupils’ lin-guistic competence, to use global and specific information, in the execution of a task or to enjoy reading.

Guided use of reading strategies (use of elements of visual context and of prior knowl-edge of the subject or situation transferred from the languages they know), identifying the most important information, deducing the meaning of unknown words and expressions.

Reading and writing their own texts about everyday situations and their own experience such as invitations, congratulations, notes, warnings, brochures….

Composition, using models, of different simple texts, using familiar expressions and sen-tences, to transmit information, or with diverse communicative aims.

Use of IT and communication technology to read, write and transmit information. I.

Block 3: Knowledge of the language

Contact with and use of the target language, enable those learning it to elaborate an elementary conceptual system regarding how it functions. The starting point is the type of situation where its use involves the inference of rules concerning the functioning of the language so that pupils can acquire confidence in their own abilities.

The contents of this block for the second cycle for the areas of foreign language in accordance with the Real Decreto de Enseñanzas Mínimas are as follows:

Linguistic knowledge.o Identification of aspects of phonetics, rhythm, stress and intonation of the target

language and their use as fundamental aspects of comprehension and production of brief oral texts.

Oxford University Press – Galaxy 3-4 14

Page 15: Programación Galaxy 3-4 3º-4º Prim. English Destacado…  · Web viewLook for words in a word search and use them to complete sentences (AB p. 5) Read and write the new syntactic

o Recognition and use of previously employed vocabulary and basic forms and structures particular to the target language. .

o Association of spelling, pronunciation and meaning via written models, familiar oral expressions and establishment of analytical relation between spelling and sound.

o Initiation into knowledge and use of basic strategies of production of texts (choice of addressee, purpose, planning, preparation of draft, revision of text and final version) using highly structured models.

o Interest in using the target language correctly in different situations. Reflection upon learning.

o Use of skills and procedures such as memorisation, word association and expressions with gestures and visual elements, observation of models, reading of texts, use of multimedia resources, for the acquisition of new vocabulary, forms and structures of the language.

o Reflection upon their own learning and acceptance of error as part of the process.o Progressive use of graphic sources of consultation and information and of the

possibilities afforded by this technology.o Confidence in their own ability to learn a foreign language and appreciation of

teamwork.

BLOCK 4 – Socio-cultural features and intercultural awareness This block helps pupils to discover customs, forms of socialising, features and particularities of countries where the target language is spoken, in other words, ways of life different to their own. This knowledge will encourage tolerance and acceptance, increase interest in knowledge of different social and cultural realities and facilitate intercultural communication.

The contents of this block for the second cycle for the areas of foreign language in accordance with the Real Decreto de Enseñanzas Mínimas are as follows:

Interest in acquiring information about the people and culture of countries where the tar-get language is spoken.

Knowledge of some similarities and differences in everyday customs and use of basic forms of socialising between countries where the target language is spoken and our own.

Receptive attitude towards people who speak another language and have a different cul-ture to one’s own

ASSESSMENT CRITERIA

The Royal Decree of Minimun Education establishes the following assessment criteria for the first cycle of primary education in the area of foreign language:

1. Participate in controlled oral exchanges referring to familiar topics in predictable communication situations, respecting the basic rules of exchange, such as listening to and looking at the person who is speaking.This criterion assesses the ability to express immediate needs such as asking permis-sion, borrowing everyday objects, finding objects or people, talking about the weather or about likes and abilities. There will be assessment of participation in everyday situ-ations such as routines, habits, language in class or simulated situations, dramatisa-tions, songs or recitals. This criterion will also assess pupils’ attitude when participat-ing in exchanges and their degree of interest in the contributions of others.

2. Grasp general meaning, and identify specific information in oral texts which are famil-iar and of interest to pupils.

Oxford University Press – Galaxy 3-4 15

Page 16: Programación Galaxy 3-4 3º-4º Prim. English Destacado…  · Web viewLook for words in a word search and use them to complete sentences (AB p. 5) Read and write the new syntactic

This criterion seeks to assess whether pupils are able to grasp the general meeting of an oral message, employing linguistic and non-linguistic elements present in the com-munication situation. It also refers to the ability to recognise and extract familiar words and expressions which appear in longer expressions although the text is not under-stood in its entirety.

3. Read and grasp global meaning and some specific information in simple texts about familiar topics and with a specific purpose.This criterion assesses whether pupils are capable of reading, aloud too, different texts, appropriate to their communicative skills, such as notes, classroom rules, let-ters, posters or stories, containing familiar vocabulary and expressions, to extract general and specific information, employing fundamental reading comprehension strategies such as using elements of linguistic and non-linguistic context, and trans-ferring knowledge of known languages.

4. Write sentences and short texts in everyday and school situations and from models with a specific purpose and an established format, both on paper and in digital form.This criterion seeks to assess the ability to write diverse texts such as notes, Instruc-tions or rules, letters, posters, brochures, comics or simple descriptions. It will assess the ability to use a model to produce a text with a certain degree of autonomy, as well as correct spelling as a result of the observation of models and the knowledge of the relationship between sound and spelling.

5. Use in a meaningful way forms and structures particular to the target language, in-cluding aspects of sound, rhythm, stress and intonation in different communicative contexts.This criterion seeks to assess pupils’ ability to recognise and reproduce sounds, rhythm, stress and intonation when participating actively by listening to repeating and anticipating expressions in reading aloud activities and with the use of models.

6. Use some learning-to-learn strategies, such as requesting clarification, accompanying communication with gestures, using visual and bilingual dictionaries, recovering, seeking and compiling information about familiar topics in different sources and identifying certain personal features which help them to learn better.This criterion aims to assess the use of basic strategies which favour the learning pro-cess such as the use of visual resources and gestures, requesting help and clarifica-tion, gradually more autonomous use of bilingual dictionaries and some basic techno-logy. It will also assess the ability to evaluate their own progress, to provide examples of strategies to learn better and the acquisition of a degree of autonomy in the spon-taneous use of simple, everyday forms and structures.

7. Appreciate the target language as an instrument of communication with other people and show curiosity and interest towards people who speak the target language.This criterion assesses whether pupils have an attitude of curiosity towards those who speak the target language or other languages different to their own, and also the ca-pacity to appreciate linguistic diversity as an enriching element of society and value sociocultural particularities of speakers of other languages.

8. Identify aspects of everyday life in countries where the target language is spoken and compare them with their own.This criterion assesses the capacity to observe and identify differences and similarit-ies in aspects of everyday life in countries where the target language is spoken with regard to timetables, meals, traditions, festivals and ways of socialising with people.

The section Programme of Units of this document lists the assessment criteria and tools specific to each teaching unit.

KEY COMPETENCES

In the Ley Orgánica de Educación (LOE) definition of the curriculum, we find both the traditional components (objectives, contents, teaching methods and assessment criteria) as well as key competences. This is one of the guiding elements of the curriculum as a whole and, consequently, a guide in the processes of teaching and learning. In fourth grade of primary school pupils have to participate in the so-called diagnostic assessment, in which they have to demonstrate the acquirement of certain skills. This assessment does not have academic consequences for students, but the fact that the results help guide centres to take decisions regarding students’ learning gives us some idea as to how educational processes are conditioned by this element in the sense of being much more functional. In sixth grade of primary school the decision as to whether pupils are promoted to the subsequent level is partly based on whether or not they have acquired the key competences, as a result of which they become a reference for student assessment.

As opposed to an educational model focused upon the the acquirement of more or less theoretical knowledge, often unrelated, an educational process based upon the acquirement of skills emphasises, above all, the acquirement of some vital know-how, practical and integrated, know-how which students will have to demonstrate (this is rather more than functional training). In brief, a skill is the putting into practice and demonstration of the capacity to integrate knowledge, abilities and attitudes to resolve problems and situations in different contexts. In a very graphic and succinct manner, there is a definition of the putting into practice of acquired knnowledge, knowledge in action, in other words, mobilising knowledge and skills in a specific situation (real and different from the one in which these were learned), activating existing resources or knowledge (although one thinks they are absent because they have been forgotten).

There is one aspect which should be highlighted, regarding what might be called the combined character of the skill: the pupil, via what he knows, must demonstrate what he can apply, but also what he can be. In this way we see how a skill integrates the different contents which are worked on in the classroom (concepts, procedures and attitudes), an example of integral training of the pupil. To summarise, we are acknowledging that the academic instiitution wil not only prepare students in the knowledge of technical and scientific know-how, but also as citizens, so they should evince a series of civic and intellectual attitudes which imply respect towards others, being responsible, team-work...

Another aspect is also important: acquiring competences allows one to tackle the constant renewal of knowledge which occurs in any area of learning. The student’s academic training takes place in school over a limited number of years, but the need for personal and/or professional preparation never ends, so that a competence in the use, for example, of information and communication technology, will enable access to this tool to obtain the information necessary at any given moment (obviously, after analysing its quality). If we also bear in mind that it is often impossible to consider in depth all the contents of the curriculum, it is clear that the student must acquire this competence, that of learning to learn.

In our educational system, the key competences regarded as those which students should possess when they finish their obligatory education in order to deal with the demands of their personal and working lives are as follows:

Competence in linguistic communication Mathematical competence. Competence in knowledge of and interaction with the physical world. Data processing and digital competence.

Oxford University Press – Galaxy 3-4 17

Page 18: Programación Galaxy 3-4 3º-4º Prim. English Destacado…  · Web viewLook for words in a word search and use them to complete sentences (AB p. 5) Read and write the new syntactic

Social and civic competence. Cultural and artistic competence. Learning-to-learn. Autonomy and personal initiative.

But, what do we understand by each of these competences? In essence, and concentrating on the most important aspect of the school curriculum, each of them contributes the following to the student’s personal and intellectual preparation:

COMPETENCE IN LINGUISTIC COMMUNICATIONThis competence involves using the language as a spoken and written communication tool, and as a means of learning and self regulation of thought, emotions and behaviour. It contributes to the creation of a positive self-image and encourages constructive relationships with others and with the environment. Learning to communicate meaning establishing links with other people and cultures. It is fundamental in resolving conflict and for peaceful coexistence. Acquiring this competence involves a command of oral and written language in a variety of contexts and the functional use of at least one foreign language.

MATHEMATICAL COMPETENCEThis competence consists, above all, of the ability to use numbers and basic mathematical operations, symbols and mathematical reasoning to produce and express information. Students learn about quantitative and spatial features and resolve everyday problems. The acquisition of this competence means applying skills and attitudes which allow for mathematical reasoning, understanding of mathematical arguments, and the ability to express oneself and communicate in mathematical language integrating mathematical concepts with other types of knowledge.

COMPETENCE IN KNOWLEDGE OF AND INTERACTION WITH THE PHYSICAL WORLD

This involves the ability to interact with the physical world in it’s natural state and see how it has been affected by human intervention. It helps to understand events and the consequences of different activities designed to improve and preserve conditions for life, of other people, and other living things. This competence implies the acquisition of scientific rational thought which enables the student to interpret information and make decisions with autonomy and personal initiative, and to use ethical values in personal and social decisions.

DATA PROCESSING AND DIGITAL COMPETENCESearching, finding, and processing skills are developed in this competence, as are the communication of information and its transformation into knowledge. Aspects such as the access to, and selection of information are included, and the transmission of this information in different formats. Students learn to use ITC as an essential media for information and communication. The acquisition of this competence involves use of technology to solve problems efficiently and having a critical attitude towards the information available.

SOCIAL AND CIVIC COMPETENCEThis competence involves understanding the social reality of the world in which we live and being a democratic citizen in the today’s plural society. It incorporates individual behaviour patterns that allow us to function and coexist in society, have contact with others, cooperate, assume commitments and deal with conflict. Acquiring this competence means knowing how put oneself in the place of others, accept differences, be tolerant and respect their values, beliefs, cultures and the culture and personal history.

To summarise, it implies an understanding of the social reality we live in, the ability to deal with conflict applying ethical values and understanding of the rights and obligations we have as citizens, showing solidarity and responsibility.

CULTURAL AND ARTISTIC COMPETENCEThis competence involves learning about, appreciating, understanding and evaluating a variety of cultural and artistic statements, and treating them as a source of pleasure and personal enrichment and as part of the cultural patrimony of different societies. Appreciation and enjoyment of art and other cultural statements and an open and receptive attitude to the variety of art forms lead to the conservation of a common cultural legacy and encourages the student’s own creative capacity.

LEARNING-TO-LEARNThis competence involves on the one hand starting the learning process, and on the other hand being capable of continuing the process in an autonomous fashion. It implies the acceptance of a variety of possible answers to the same problem, and motivation to search for these answers using different means. To sum up, it implies an organisation of the student’s own capacity to efficiently manage resources and intellectual processes.

AUTONOMY AND PERSONAL INITIATIVEThis competence refers to the ability to decide using one’s own criteria and to successfully take the necessary initiatives to develop and take responsibility for the chosen option, both at a personal and social level and in the workplace or school.The acquisition of this competence implies creativity, innovation, responsibility and a critical approach to the development of individual or group projects.

How is each key competence attained by using this material?

We are going to explain in brief the most relevant aspects of our project, subject to the denands of daily teaching practice at any given time.:

In essence and reflecting the most significant elements of the school currículum, each competence contributes the following to the student’s personal and intellectual preparation:

A. KEY COMPETENCES DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE LEARNING OF THE FOREIGN LANGUAGE

COMPETENCE IN LINGUISTIC COMMUNICATIONThis competence involves using the language as a spoken and written communication tool, and as a means of learning and self regulation of thought, emotions and behaviour. It contributes to the creation of a positive self-image and encourages constructive relationships with others and with the environment. Learning to communicate meaning establishing links with other people and cultures. It is fundamental in resolving conflict and for peaceful coexistence. Acquiring this competence involves a command of oral and written language in a variety of contexts and the functional use of at least one foreign language.

Foreign language learning contributes directly to the development of this competence, completing, enriching and adding new aspects of comprehension and expression to the general communicative competence of the student. All textbooks published by Oxford University Press offer a wide range of activities which encourage authentic communication in the classroom, with a systematic development of written and oral skills and opportunities for personalisation

Lessons 3 and 6 of each unit include a communicative game which consists of dialogues in pairs to obtain information: Galaxy 3 CB p.10, 13, AB p.67.

DATA PROCESSING AND DIGITAL COMPETENCE

Searching, finding, and processing skills are developed in this competence, as are the communication of information and it’s transformation into knowledge. Aspects such as the access to, and selection of information are included, and the transmission of this information in different formats. Students learn to use ITC as an essential medium for information and communication. The acquisition of this competence involves use of technology to solve problems efficiently and having a critical attitude towards the information available.

Information and communication technology offers the possibility to comunícate in real time with any part of the world, as well as simple and immediate access to a constant flow of information which increases every day. Knowledge of a foreign language offers the possibility to communicate using new technology real, functional contexts for communication.. This competence consists of having the ability to obtain, process and communícate information and turn it into knowledge.

The Galaxy! Series has its own website where students will be able to communicate, via e-cards, with children from other parts of the world. The interactive games and stories offer an opportunity for processing information and reinforcing knowledge. The teacher's website (www.oup.com/elt/Galaxy) provides links to other websites for real time online activities. The MultiROM offers interactive games to practise the language.

SOCIAL AND CIVIC COMPETENCEThis competence involves understanding the social reality of the world in which we live and being a democratic citizen in today’s plural society. It incorporates individual behaviour patterns that allow us to function and coexist in society, have contact with others, cooperate, assume commitments and deal with conflict. Acquiring this competence means knowing how put oneself in the place of others, accept differences, be tolerant and respect their values, beliefs, culture and personal history. To summarise, it implies an understanding of the social reality we live in, the ability to deal with conflict applying ethical values and understanding of the rights and obligations we have as citizens, showing solidarity and responsibility.Languages are used for social communication, but also as a vehicle for cultural communication and transmission. Learning a foreign language involves an understanding of cultural features and information related to the communities which speak the language. This favours an understanding of the society we live in through respect and acceptance of different cultures. Tolerance and integration are developed and an appreciation of features of, and differences in, cultural identity.

At the end of the CB, the cultural section looks at festivities and cultural themes involving children in English-speaking countries. For example: Galaxy 3 CB p. 60-63.Some of the lessons 5 include texts with cultural themes in which British children participate. For example: Galaxy 3 CB p.12, 30...

CULTURAL AND ARTISTIC COMPETENCEThis competence involves learning about, appreciating, understanding and evaluating a variety of cultural and artistic statements, and treating them as a source of pleasure and personal enrichment and as part of the cultural patrimony of different societies. Appreciation and enjoyment of art and other cultural statements and an open and receptive attitude to the variety of art forms lead to the conservation of a common cultural legacy and encourages the student’s own creative capacity.

Page 21: Programación Galaxy 3-4 3º-4º Prim. English Destacado…  · Web viewLook for words in a word search and use them to complete sentences (AB p. 5) Read and write the new syntactic

Learning a foreign language helps to develop this competence if the linguistic models contain, even in the limited way possible at this level, cultural information. This competence, then, encourages expression and communication in order to perceive and understand different realities and products of the artistic and cultural world.

Artistic competence involves a basic understanding of techniques, resources and conventions related to the different artistic idioms, music, literature, visual and stage arts or different aspects of so-called popular culture.

Throughout the course, children use musical language (songs in lessons 2 and chants in Spaceship lesson) and art (pictures) etc. In lessons 1 and 6 they do craftwork with cut-out cards. For example: Galaxy 3 CB p.14, 16, 17, 21 and AB p.59, 69

LEARNING-TO-LEARNThis competence involves on the one hand starting the learning process, and on the other hand being capable of continuing the process in an autonomous fashion. It implies the acceptance of a variety of possible answers to the same problem, and motivation to search for these answers using different means. To sum up, it implies an organisation of the student’s own capacity to efficiently manage resources and intellectual processes.

Learning a foreign language is far more effective if it includes contents directly related to reflection upon one’s own learning, so that each child identifies how to learn better and which strategies to use to improve.

This involves the awareness of those capacities which form a part of learning, such as attention, concentration, memory, comprehension, linguistic expression and motivation, for example.

At the end of lessons 3 pupils use stickers to complete a dictionary/vocabulary summary to use as a reference (the data base). For example: Galaxy 3 AB p.53. At the end of each unit, (lessons 6) pupils revise and reflect upon what they have learnt in the “back to base”. For example: Galaxy 3 AB p.15.The Assessment notebook in each level contains photocopiable Portfolio material (self-assessment) in the style of the European Language Portfolio...

B. KEY COMPETENCES NOT DIRECTLY RELATED TO FOREIGN LANGUAGE LEARNING

MATHEMATICAL COMPETENCEThis competence consists, above all, of the ability to use numbers and basic mathematical operations, symbols and mathematical reasoning to produce and express information. Students learn about quantitative and spatial features and resolve everyday problems. The acquisition of this competence means applying skills and attitudes which allow for mathematical reasoning, understanding of mathematical arguments, and the ability to express oneself and communicate in mathematical language integrating mathematical concepts with other types of knowledge.

Using numbers and basic operations,symbols and forms of expression and mathematical reasoning to produce and interpret information, to know more about quantitative and spatial aspects of reality and to resolve problems related to daily life. Part of mathematical competence is the ability to interpret and express with clarity and precision information, data and arguments.

Page 22: Programación Galaxy 3-4 3º-4º Prim. English Destacado…  · Web viewLook for words in a word search and use them to complete sentences (AB p. 5) Read and write the new syntactic

Throughout the course numerous activities provide the opportunity to develop mathematical competence with sequencing (jumbled story frames in the audio CD and others in the PMB), counting, categorising and ordering activities. For example: Galaxy 3 AB p.19, 50, Teaching Guide p. 46 (ej 2) and PMB p.7-8 (Old McDonald story).

COMPETENCE IN KNOWLEDGE OF AND INTERACTION WITH THE PHYSICAL WORLD

This involves the ability to interact with the physical world in it’s natural state and see how it has been affected by human intervention. It helps to understand events and the consequences of different activities designed to improve and preserve conditions for life, of other people, and other living things. This competence implies the acquisition of scientific rational thought which enables the student to interpret information and make decisions with autonomy and personal initiative, and to use ethical values in personal and social decisions.

Interacting with the physical world, both in its natural aspects and those generated by human action, in such a way that facilitates the understanding of events, the prediction of consequences and activity directed towards the improvement and preservation of the conditions of one’s own life, that of other people and of all other living creatures.Taking as a starting point knowledge of the human body, nature, and the interaction of mankind with nature, this competence allows students to discuss rationally the consequences of different lifestyles and take decisions about a healthy physical and mental way of life in a healthy and safe environment. The responsible use of natural resources, environmental conservation, and preservation of individual and collective health are recognised as key to quality of life.

Galaxy 3 & 4 covers a variety of themes including, for example, the human body, food, nature, animals, social relations between friends and family, etc. For example: Galaxy 3 CB p.26, 56.

AUTONOMY AND PERSONAL INITIATIVEThis competence refers to the ability to decide using ones own criteria and to successfully take the necessary initiatives to develop and take responsibility for the chosen option, both at a personal and social level and in the workplace or school.

The acquisition of this competence implies creativity, innovation, responsibility and a critical approach to the development of individual or group projects.Decisions which result from reflection on the learning process favour autonomy. As autonomy and personal initiative often involve others, this competence necessitates social skills such as cooperation, flexibility, negotiation, teamwork, seeing others’ points of view, dialogue, and the assertiveness to explain one’s own decisions. Autonomy and personal initiative involve being able to imagine, begin, develop and evaluate one’s actions or individual or group projects with creativity, confidence, responsibility and a critical attitude. In this sense it requires the ability to revise previous ideas or create new ones

In the Guide, numerous activities are suggested to perform in pairs or groups with particular attention to diversity and via projects, games, etc, which promote confidence and self-esteem. For example: Galaxy 3 Teaching Guide p. 5 (transversal themes) and p.138-140 – group work.

Continuous learning

In a competence there iis no knowledge which is only acquired in and valid for a particular subject (especially in and for this one). Everything students learn in different subjects (and not only at school) forms a background of culture and information which should serve them

Oxford University Press – Galaxy 3-4 22

Page 23: Programación Galaxy 3-4 3º-4º Prim. English Destacado…  · Web viewLook for words in a word search and use them to complete sentences (AB p. 5) Read and write the new syntactic

throughout their lives, which they should be able to use at specific moments and in differerent situations (language is, in this sense, paradigmatic) . For this reason, any of these competences may be achieved if not in all, certainly in most curriculum subjects and for that reason too these competences can be used and applied in all these subjects, regardless of in which one they have been acquired (transversality). Being competent should guarantee the completion of determined learnings, but also permit the attainment of others, both at school itself and beyond, a guarantee of continuous learning (or, in this case, the capacity to communicate in very diverse situations, some of which pupils themselves may not yet even perceive as likely in the future).

Nevertheless, clearly there is an obvious interrelation between the different elements of the curriculum, one which we must highlight in order to make suitable use of all the curriculum subjects employed in the teaching-learning process. When in a didactic programme like this one the objectives of a unit are indicated formulated ( like the assessment criteria, in terms of abilities), we know that these determine the choice of contents, in the same way that we should employ assessment criteria which demonstrate whether or not pupils attain them. Thus, assessment criteria allow for a double interpretation: on the one hand, those related to the pupils’ learning as a whole, in other words, there will be some assessment criteria specifically linked to concepts, others to procedures and others to attitudes, as all of these contents need to be assessed because they were worked on in class and are those which are assesssed at different stages during application of continuous assessment; and on the other, there will be assessment criteria which have been formulated more with regard to their relationship with key competences.

The assessment of key competences is an assessment model which differs from that of assessment criteria, both because it is applied at different stages of other assessments, and because its purpose, though complementary, is different. If we assume that key competences involve a real and practical application of knowledge, abilities and attitudes, the way of checking or assessing whether the pupil has acquired them is to reproduce application situations which are as real as possible, and in these situations it is customary for the pupil to use this accumulated background (all kinds of contents) but to respond, above all, to practical situations. In this way, when we assess competences we are essentially, though not exclusively, assessing procedures and attitudes, which is why we relate them to assessment criteria that are more procedural and attitudinal.

SUBCOMPETENCESThe competences by their very nature are generic. To use them as a reference for pedagogical actions and to really demonstrate the competences acquired by the students, they need to be broken down into more specific objectives related to other elements of the curriculum. We have called these objective subcompetences, and without covering all the possibilities, they do include those most closely related to the subject curriculum and most prominent in all subjects on account of their interdisciplinary nature.

In foreign language learning, these subcompetences are as follows (there are other competences/subcompetences which are also acquired in the area of Foreign Language–English, though not in this grade):

Competence in linguistic communication Express thoughts, emotions, experiences and opinions orally and simply. Adapt spoken style to a variety of communicative contexts, taking into account non-verbal

features and respecting norms of communicative exchanges. Understand social and cultural conventions when producing texts

Oxford University Press – Galaxy 3-4 23

Page 24: Programación Galaxy 3-4 3º-4º Prim. English Destacado…  · Web viewLook for words in a word search and use them to complete sentences (AB p. 5) Read and write the new syntactic

Understand a variety of texts types typical of the academic setting and understanding the communicative intention and formal features.

Take pleasure in reading and use reading to discover other places, languages and cultures.

Be conscious of the need to respect spelling rules in the production of written texts Understand principles of word formation as a means of extending vocabulary Use a sufficient range of vocabulary to be able to express oneself orally and in writing in

specific situations. Compose texts typical of the academic environment, appropriate to the communicative

objective. Write texts to express ideas, feelings and experiences

Data processing and digital competence Search for, obtain, process and communicate information in the foreign language,

transforming it into knowledge, using the computer or the internet. Analyse critically the information obtained

Social and civic competence Use dialogue as a basic tool for interpersonal communication and in the resolution of

conflict. Understand the values which characterise a democratic society: freedom, solidarity,

participation, citizenship, tolerance. Value linguistic diversity as a cultural advantage.

Cultural and artistic competence Appreciate cultural diversity as seen though artistic statements.

Learning-to-learn Understand and habitually use the main techniques and strategies which favour the

intellectual process (summary, note taking, concept maps...). Use a variety of sources for finding and processing information

Autonomy and personal initiative Show initiative and personal creativity Develop social skills.

Mathematical competence Apply logical reasoning to chains of argument, identifying the fundamental ideas.

Competence in knowledge of and interaction with the physical world

Recognise geographical spaces and conditions where other cultures are located or come from and which may determine and influence the development of these cultures.

Identify questions or problems and obtain conclusions based on evidence.

All these competentes and subcompetences bring into play different strategies and different linguistic and discursive skills are employed in a contextualised manner. Therefore, the activities in which the foreign language is used are set within fields which may be public (everything related to daily social interaction), personal family relationships and individual social habits), professional or educational. Students will use communication strategies in a natural and systematic manner in order to make effective the communication activities performed by means of communicative skills. The skills developed will be: productive (speaking and writing), receptive (listening and reading) and based on interraction or mediation.

Oxford University Press – Galaxy 3-4 24

Page 25: Programación Galaxy 3-4 3º-4º Prim. English Destacado…  · Web viewLook for words in a word search and use them to complete sentences (AB p. 5) Read and write the new syntactic

Learning tasks or activities will constitute the core of didactic planning, and will integrate objectives, contents and assessment, making up units of programming. Amongst other criteria, the design of activities and tasks has taken into account the stages to be followed in their development, prior knowledge, integrated treatment of linguistic components, skills and strategies, proposed final objectives and the classroom’s potential for adaptation and diversity.

Learning English will not only provide students with competences in order to communicate, but also with cultural and social knowledge of the culture whose language they are studying, which will help them develop a personality which is open and tolerant towards what is different.. In this way one achieves the integral prepararation of the individual

As we have noted, one of the characteristics of the key competences is that they allow for and encourage transversality in the learning with which they are associated, in other words, that which can and should be achieved, though from a different but complementary perspective, via the development of the curriculum of the various areas of the same educational stage. In this grade, these areas are Conocimiento del Medio, Art, P:E., Spanish Language, Foreign Language, Mathematics, Music and, optionally, Religion.

For the overall work required of teachers in this grade, we indicate in the table below the key competences which, as a minimum, should also be attained in other areas, in some with more interrelation and in others with less:

ÁREAKEY COMPETENCES*1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Science X X X X X X X XArt X X X X X XP.E. X X X X X XSpanish Language X X X X X XForeign Language X X X X X XMathematics X X X X X X X X

*n.b.:1. Linguistic communication.2. Mathematics.3. Knowledge of and interaction with the physical world.4. Data processing and digital competence.5. Social and civic..6. Cultural and artistic.7. Learning-to-learn.8. Autonomy and personal initiative.

As can be seen, the transversality of the key competences is evident, so within the framework of the centre’s educational standard criteria should be formulated for their collective treatment.

TREATMENT OF DIVERSITY

One of the elements upon which the LOE places most emphasis is TREATMENT OF DIVERSITY. It is clear that the same educational method employed with a single group of students has differing results depending on each pupil’s knowledge and previous experience, their intellectual capacity and their interests and motivation with regard to teaching.

Oxford University Press – Galaxy 3-4 25

Page 26: Programación Galaxy 3-4 3º-4º Prim. English Destacado…  · Web viewLook for words in a word search and use them to complete sentences (AB p. 5) Read and write the new syntactic

This si why, on many occasions, we have to modify. or adapt contents or methodology in order that all pupils may attain the objectives established. Similarly, we should offer extension activities for more able or receptive students. TREATMENT OF DIVERSITY should always be practised in both directions. Therefore, these differences should always be catered for, by presenting the same activities in different ways by means of the activities included in the students’ book and the workbook.. Teachers need to evaluate towards whom they should direct one type of activity or the other, and need to be constantly aware of these differences, not only when assessing, but also when teaching and planning the process of teaching-learning.

Galaxy! includes reinforcement and extension activities which allow for individualised attention to pupils, depending on their needs and learning rhythm. Every lesson in our project includes ideas to help teachers respond to the different situations which arise in the classroom

The Teacher’s Book suggests reinforcement and consolidation activities for students as well as notes for the teacher, teaching advice, better to deal with different types of student.

In one of the components of the Teacher’s Resource Pack, , the Photocopy Masters Book, the teacher will find photocopiable consolidation and extension pages for each unit.

Criteria and procedures adopted for the development of special curricular adaptation for students with special educational needs

(The department can describe and detail these criteria and procedures here if necessary. If this is not the case then this section can be omitted)

Adaptations will focus on:

1- The time and rhythm of learning2- A more personalised methodology3- A reinforcement of study skills4- The improvement of procedures, habits and attitudes 5- Ways of increasing amount of counselling

a) For the more gifted students, extension materials will be providedb) For pupils with serious learning problems, as sufficient progress in the conceptual contents of the course is more difficult to attain, procedures and attitudes will be the priority, with social integration being the overall aim. Core instrumental skills need to be the key content of the adapted curriculum. Modifications to the curriculum may be quite significant (they will probably entail the elimination of contents, objectives and consequently of the assessment criteria which might otherwise be considered essential). When such adaptations are not enough, the alternative is to have the pupil study part of the core curriculum in special groups, with different contents and educational activities. This learning can take place in the mainstream classroom with special support, or in a separate physical space. This pupil will have the general objectives of this stage of primary education as a reference, but will work towards those aims through different contents and activities.

PROGRAMME OF UNITS: 3rd YEAR - COMPULSORY PRIMARY EDUCATION

This programming and scheduling constitutes a model of timed learning for 3rd year of Primary Education and taking into account the specific objectives of English as a subject.

Oxford University Press – Galaxy 3-4 26

Page 27: Programación Galaxy 3-4 3º-4º Prim. English Destacado…  · Web viewLook for words in a word search and use them to complete sentences (AB p. 5) Read and write the new syntactic

This is an adaptable timetable which may be adjusted to the group-class profile as it may be used simultaneously with students who struggle to learn languages as well as with those who have slightly superior knowledge. It may also be adapted to the teacher’s and students’ own tastes and initiatives and the evolution of the course.

This is a guiding and extendable programme, with numerous optional possibilities suggested in the Teacher’s Guide and the Photocopy Masters Book. The teacher may introduce these activities at the appropriate moment, according to students’ needs and attitudes, bearing in mind learning speed – individual and collective – and teaching hours available.

CLASSROOM PROGRAMME - NEW GALAXY 3: YEAR 2010/2011*

This classroom programme is part of the curriculum for primary education and the curriculum project for the area which OUP has designed for the Cool Kids method of teaching-learning the English language.

Designing a classroom programme is a very special task, as each centre, depending on its type and curricular project, each class, depending on its diversity, and each teacher, according to his/her teaching experience, runs a different classroom programme in terms of particular characteristics but a similar one in a more general sense

Within this general context, and on the basis of openness and flexibility as a useful and efficient tool for primary school teachers, the Cool Kids editorial project has prepared this classroom programme.

The abbreviations and symbols employed are as follows:

CLASSROOM PROGRAMME - NEW GALAXY 4: YEAR 2010/2011*

This classroom programme is part of the curriculum for primary education and the curriculum project for the area which OUP has designed for the Cool Kids method of teaching-learning the English language.

Designing a classroom programme is a very special task, as each centre, depending on its type and curricular project, each class, depending on its diversity, and each teacher, according to his/her teaching experience, runs a different classroom programme in terms of particular characteristics but a similar one in a more general sense

Within this general context, and on the basis of openness and flexibility as a useful and efficient tool for primary school teachers, the Cool Kids editorial project has prepared this classroom programme.

The abbreviations and symbols employed are as follows:
