The school year goes on and we find ourselves in March, already. During this month, we highlight spring arrival and activities such as Art and Culture Week and Saint Patrick\u2019s Day celebration, events that our students and teachers enjoy very much. We invite you to visit our big art gallery that is full with the works of all the children. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

DIVERSITY IN TEACHING<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We find a variety of learning styles within the classrooms, since not all of us learn the same way and each one uses his own method. Furthermore, our likes or preferences, capabilities, cultural baggage, rhythm and attitudes towards learning step in. \u00a0Each member of the class will learn in a different way, he or she will have his own doubts and advance in some areas differently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although, as teachers, we recognize in our students these learning styles and they give us a reference to understand some behaviors observed in a daily basis in the classroom, we shouldn\u2019t label them, since those styles are not permanent nor definitive. Our students\u2019 learning styles evolve with age and experiences, so at the school, we teachers use a variety of learning experiences, encouraging flexibility in the student to learn under different learning styles, we create opportunities for success and we offer a balanced and comprehensive teaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
HOW THE INQUIRY LINES COMPREHENSION IS EVALUATED<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
By 4th grade teachers <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
In each unit a central idea<\/strong> and three lines of inquiry are worked; to evaluate if children understood the central idea a summative evaluation<\/strong> is carried out and to know if lines of inquiry were clear, formative evaluations<\/strong> are done. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today, we want to share with you one of the evaluations carried out in Unit 3 by 4th<\/sup> grade called ‘Safe travels!’ <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
After doing different learning experiences about the line of inquiry ‘Migrations through history’,<\/strong> kids were asked to do a brochure. Kids observed the evaluation tool<\/strong>, this time, a ‘checklist’<\/strong> so students knew what they were supposed to include in their work. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
It is noted that children already knew the features of the brochure, since it had been previously worked in the contents of both, English, and Spanish, looking for the transversality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An important part of the experiences is to recover prior knowledge about the topics and to find a contextualized relation reinforcing their knowledge, getting involved their cognitive and intellectual skills so they have an impact in their daily life making meaningful changes in their environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CHESS AS AN INCLUSIVE SPORT PAR EXCELLENCE <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A lot has been told about the academic and social-emotional benefits of chess in the pedagogy and development of children, but little has been spoken about what a sport such as this means in terms of inclusion; and that is that with all the efforts made by society throughout the years in terms of prevention inequalities and equity in all aspects of our life, it is incredible we had overlooked that chess has been and always will be one of the most inclusive sports in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When analyzing the term inclusion, we can see it from many points of view, but let\u2019s focus on the one that concerns us, which is sports. Sports inclusion is defined as follows: physical and sports activity that allows the joint practice of people with or without disabilities, adjusting themselves to the capabilities of the practitioners and keeping the goal of the sports specialty in question. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
Being a sport subject to its practice within a board, chess can be practiced by any person, regardless of gender, age, physical condition, different abilities, etc., which fulfills the section of being a joint practice with or without disabilities. Besides, the International Chess Federation handbooks have specialized chapters in the regulation of its practice when one of the contenders, due to the lack of or diminished physical conditions, requires specialized playing conditions, such as the use of boards for the visually impaired or the use of separation between boards to accommodate wheelchairs. Chess, in essence, in practice and regulation, IS MADE FOR EVERYONE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition, it has proved being an important tool for social inclusion, since several countries carry out programs focused on young people in vulnerable or high-risk areas, where through chess and other sports, they seek to provide a way and an alternative to their spare time, as well as using it therapeutically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Medical uses are also important, since the inclusiveness of this sport allows to use it as a method to prevent Alzheimer, in addition to its proven use as a therapy in ADHD (Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorders.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We can see that this discipline not only helps our children to have a better development as students, but also as human beings that look, respect, support and coexist with others in a healthy and natural way, regardless anything but the fact of being human just like them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
