Victoria y el estrés preparando San Valentín
NAVDEEP'S CAS EXPERIENCIES IN SPAIN
This was my first year in this school as well in Spain. I was given the opportunity to interact with older people who live at Savia residencia tercera Edad. This is a home for older people who need assisted living. At first I was very excited as it reminded me of visiting my grandparents, who I didn’t see very often now as they live in India, though as the day of the visit drew closer I became very nervous and anxious.
The nervousness and anxiety stemmed from the unknown, will they like me, will I be able to communicate with them as my Spanish was not good. When I went there we were explained how things work in Savia. They told us that we need to make partners.
During that time I interacted with a number of residents and I met a lady Adela and from the very beginning I felt a very strong bond with her. She made me comfortable and I also got the vibe that she is also comfortable with me and the feelings I started the day with started to lessen much to my relief because they were accepting me even though I don’t speak good Spanish.
In the first visit we played “petanca”. It was new for me because I never played it before. It was really fun. And I found out that this game was my partner’s favorite game as she started jumping when they announced that we are going to play “petanca”. With my partner’s help, she was able to teach me how to play even with the language barrier which generated a lot laughing between us because we don’t know how to talk with each other and she was trying to explain me with actions and I wasn’t able to understand.
Subsequent visits became easier as our bond started growing very stronger and my command of Spanish improved. During these visits I found out that Adela’s experiences and about her family, friends and about her school life. I also shared my school stories with her and told her about my family and my experiences of growing up in India.
When I visited her at Christmas we completed an activity together of making cards and also we selected costumes and props for the careers to take our a memorable picture of Christmas together. During this experience we discovered a deeper understanding of each other’s likes, dislikes and humor.
From this visit my bond with my partner and her friends has grown and on now I look forward to the monthly visits to see what they have been doing and update her on my life as well as participating in the various activities on the day with the other residents.
These visits taught me that we can talk with anyone, it doesn’t matter in which country you are, language is not important. I learned so many things from Adela and from her experiences.
I improved my Spanish. Whenever I visited Savia I always got the same vibe as I used to get when I use to visit my grandparents in India.
I am thankful to El Plantio ISV and to IB for providing us such an opportunity.

Clases de Zumba a través del CAS: desde Y2 hasta Y5
Os vamos a contar nuestra experiencia en una de las actividades del CAS que llevamos a cabo los alumnos de BI en el colegio, la cual ha consistido en impartir clases de Zumba a los niñ@s del colegio y de esta manera ofrecerles una hora de diversión, entretenimiento y actividad física.
Durante
los últimos dos meses del curso escolar, hemos dado clases de Zumba
a diferentes cursos, desde year 2 hasta year 5.
Los monitores de la
clase de Zumba hemos sido: Ernesto Fenellós, Lucia Milo y Carla Ribe, alumnos de year 12 (1º de bachillerato).
Para realizar
esta actividad, hemos preparado varias coreografías por curso,
de modo que a los niñ@s les resultase más fácil seguirnos y la
tarea fuera más dinámica.
Cada baile realizado tenía una canción
previamente seleccionada. Hemos utilizado canciones como: ‘Can’t
stop the feeling’,
‘Happy’, ‘Wanna be’, ‘Worth it’, ‘Feel it still’,
‘Papaoutai’, ‘Beat it’ y ‘Cheerleader’. Todas estas
canciones se eligieron ya que eran conocidas por la mayoría de los
alumn@s y haría que las clases fueran más entretenidas para ellos.
Las coreografías resultaron bastante entretenidas para los niñ@s,
ya que no paraban de reír y saltar.
Sonia
Del Campo, una de las tutoras que estuvo presente, opina que: “Fue una
clase muy divertida, que los niñ@s disfrutaron un montón. El nivel
de dificultad era adecuado para los niñ@s y estaba muy bien
organizado.” Asimismo, Susana, otra de las tutoras presentes
durante la clase de Zumba opina: “¡La clase estuvo genial! La
actividad incluía a todos los alumn@s, sin importar su habilidad a
la hora de bailar.”
Esta
actividad es diferente, y, ¿por qué?. Es diferente porque no es
solo una actividad en la que los niñ@s solo escuchen o vean algo,
sino que además requiere mucho movimiento y actividad física. Con
esto, los niñ@s gastan energía y hacen deporte. Así, conseguimos
que realicen actividad física, algo muy importante, sobretodo para
los niños de estas edades, que están en etapa de crecimiento.
Nosotros
ya teníamos confianza con la mayoría de niñ@s ya que durante este
curso, todos los viernes, como parte del CAS, hemos
ido a pasar un tiempo con ellos por las tardes, a veces dedicado a
tareas, o a juegos. Hemos forjado una gran amistad con ellos, y nos
gusta saber que lo han pasado bien haciendo esta actividad.
