Teachers (primary and secondary levels).
The objective of this workshop is: - To use Art (visual reproductions) as a trigger or starting point, not only for the teaching of English language, but also for other subjects (Literature, History, Geography). - To introduce students into the world and language of visual arts. - To put teachers into action and get them to see their body, trigger their imagination and creativity.
Art is a rich and stimulating resource that will enable us to develop our creativity as teachers and learners. It's a trigger for creative writing, speech, imagination, improvisation, movement and vocabulary. A different way to incorporate knowledge. Art will encourage our students and us to engage our right brain. Teachers will be presented with a battery of exercises and activities that they can adapt for their students according to the level, type of group and subject. The keywords to these activities will be: - Observation. - Vocabulary. - Speech. - Description. - Movement. - Imagination. - Creative Writing. - Improvisation.
The workshop is divided into three "moments" - Introducing theory. - Hands on experience: the participants will be divided into groups and each group will be given a "chest" with activities to carry out. - Sharing: We shall have a moment or space for sharing activities, feelings, questions.
