Zani Silvia Istituto comprensivo 1 Modena- Italy BEST PRACTICE IN MY SCHOOL I' m a primary school teacher and I would like to tell you a good practice used in my school.
I work in a big school, where there are many classes and all teachers plan special labs activities to enrich the educational offer.
The main characteristic of these workshops is how children are divided and organized into work groups, because we use to openclasses for these activities
During these labs, classes are divided, reorganized and teachers create mixed groupsof students of the same age, but they come from different classes
We are used to dodrama, music, ICT, art or science experiment, toencourage kids potentials • These labs consist of several lessons, from October to May • They are attended twice a week
Each group of students starts attending different workshops, but during the year, groups turn so they can attend all labs kept by different teachers
This work strategy: • help cultural and social growth; • encourage children, letting them discover different ways of relationship and communication; • is an opportunity to socialize and, above all, an opportunity of integration; • is a good way to avoid children’s demotivation; • is an opportunity for the teachers to know and work with all children. Students wait with pleasure these moments and they are very motivated and excited
