SPANISH CONSTITUTION 2014

The Spanish Constitution – Las Lomas School

We celebrate the Spanish Constitution in December the 6^th every year. This is an important date for the Spanish people. This document was signed in 1978. Spain finds freedom, justice and equality. The capital of Spain is Madrid, our Region is Murcia and the national language is the Spanish. The symbols are the flag (red, yellow and red), the emblem and the national anthem. The highest authority is the king (Felipe VI).

In our school, we wore a cap and coloured it with the colours of our flag, learnt the important of this document and had a debate about the different places in our country keeping in mind the importance of being Spaniards.

EL CEIP LAS LOMAS, PIONERO EN LA IMPLANTACIÓN DEL PROGRAMA BILINGÜE EN EL MUNICIPIO

El edil de Educación del Ayuntamiento de Águilas, Francisco Clemente, visitó esta mañana el CEIP Las Lomas, donde fue recibido por la directora del centro, Fina Ramírez, junto a quien recorrió las aulas donde se imparten las clases de inmersión lingüística.

Según explicó Clemente, el motivo de la visita era comprobar, personalmente, el desarrollo del programa bilingüe instituido en este colegio desde el año 2011, posicionándolo como el centro pionero del municipio en este tipo de enseñanza.

El citado programa se inició con alumnos de primero de Educación Primaria, que este año ya han alcanzado el cuatro nivel. Esto supone un aumento considerable del número d

e horas en enseñanza de idiomas, distribuidas entre las asignaturas de ciencias naturales, artística en Inglés.

Además, el pasado año, la consejería de Educación, Cultura y Universidades seleccionó a este centro, junto a otros cinco en toda la Región de Murcia, para formar parte de un programa experimental de inmersión lingüística en inglés para el segundo ciclo de Educación Infantil. Este se realiza durante una sesión diaria de una hora de duración, en la que el profesor usa exclusivamente la lengua extranjera para comunicarse con los alumnos.

Los docentes que atienden a los estudiantes son maestros especialistas en inglés y cuentan con el apoyo de dos auxiliares de conversación en lengua inglesa.

Concretamente, este curso escolar proceden de Nueva Zelanda y Estados Unidos.

Los objetivos del programa son mejorar el aprendizaje y la adquisición de destrezas en la comprensión oral del inglés; desarrollar contenidos en actividades formales, informales y no formales, fomentando la comunicación lingüística; y ampliar las habilidades comunicativas en diferentes lenguajes y formas de expresión de los alumnos.

Tras finalizar la visita, el concejal de Educación destacó la facilidad que muestran los niños, de edades tempranas, para adquirir estos conocimientos y expresó su deseo de que esta apuesta por el bilingüismo se vaya extendiendo, de manera paulatina, al resto de centros escolares de la localidad.

Por último, Clemente recordó que, actualmente, casi trescientos alumnos de dos colegios aguileños participan ya en estos programas bilingües. De ellos, 247 son del CEIP Las Lomas y 51 del María Inmaculada, que este año se ha incorporado a esta red de centros.

EUROPE DAY - 9TH MAY

• The EU is recognisable by several symbols, the most well-known being the circle of yellow stars on a blue background. 
• The European flag. The 12 stars in a circle symbolise the ideals of unity, solidarity and harmony among the peoples of Europe. 
• The European anthem.  The melody used to symbolise the EU comes from the Ninth Symphony composed in 1823 by Ludwig Van Beethoven. 
• Europe Day. The ideas behind the European Union were first put forward on 9 May 1950 by French foreign minister Robert Schuman. This is why 9 May is celebrated as a key date for the EU. 






• The EU motto "United in diversity" is the motto of the European Union. It signifies how Europeans have come together, in the form of the EU, to work for peace and prosperity, while at the same time being enriched by the continent's many different cultures, traditions and languages.
