Two English teachers at a school participated in an experimenting group for project-based learning (PBL) for two years, where they learned new methodologies. They implemented two PBL projects, one in preschool about recycling and one in 5th grade primary school about reducing unemployment. In preschool, students learned about recycling through physical education activities and created an artistic mural. In 5th grade, students researched in groups and proposed new companies to create jobs in their local area through PowerPoint presentations.

Two English teachers have been participating in this experimenting group
for two years (2014-2016). During those schoolyears we have learnt new methodologies and implemented two PBL projects, one in P5 (during PE lessons) and the other one in 5th Primary (during our Social Science lessons). Thanks to our participation in this project we could introduce those two subjects (PE for pre-school and Science for 3rd cycle in primary) taught through English. Our driving question in P5 was: How can we motivate ourselves and our school community to recycle? And in 5th Primary the question was: How can we reduce the number of unemployed people in our area? In P5 preschool, pupils worked the recycling theme, through physical education activities. They brought real recyclable objects, simulated to be dustmen and dust women, simulated a grocery store role playing, played Recycle Olympic Games and learned how to classify each items into the related recycling bin. The final product was an artistic mural with recycling materials, symbolizing their thoughts and encouraging the school community to recycle. In 5th primary we worked in groups researching and finally each group made a PowerPoint showing what they had learnt and proposing a new company to create employment in the area they had been working on. Finally they presented their PowerPoint for the rest of the class. Dues mestres dangls de lescola hem participat en aquest grup dexperimentaci durant dos anys (2014-2016). Durant aquests dos cursos hem aprs noves metodologies i hem implementat dos projectes PBL, un a p5 (a les classes de psicomotricitat) i laltre a 5 de primria (a lrea de Social Science). Grcies a la nostra participaci en aquest projecte hem pogut introduir aquestes dues matries (psicomotricitat a educaci infantil i medi al cicle superior de primria) en angls i ara han quedat com a lnia descola.
La pregunta guia a p5 ha estat: Com podem motivar la nostra comunitat
escolar i a nosaltres mateixos a reciclar?, i a 5 de primria era: Com podem reduir el nombre daturats a la nostra zona? A p5 Infantil, els alumnes han treballat el tema del reciclatge a partir dactivitats deducaci fsica. Van portar objectes de reciclatge reals, van simular ser escombriaires, van actuar tot simulant ser caixers i compradors en el supermercat i tamb van jugar els Jocs Olmpics del reciclatge tot aprenent com classificar els diferents tems als corresponents contenidors de reciclatge. El producte final va ser un mural artstic amb materials reciclables tot expressant els seus pensaments i animant a la comunitat educativa a reciclar. A 5 hem treballat en grups, cercant informaci, discutint i buscant una soluci. Al final cada grup va fer un PowerPoint on explicava el que havien aprs i la seva proposta per crear una empresa a cada una de les zones treballades. Finalment, cada grup va fer una presentaci oral en angls
