I teach English in a High School called IES Pinar de la Rubia in Valladolid, in the north west of Spain. I really love teaching and everything related to Education, that's why I am a committed teacher to new school projects to improve our students' knowledge and attitudes.

We are carrying out a Lingüistic Project which consists of using several tools to encourage students to use their skills to commmunicate their knowledge orally and writing. We are also taking part in the contest of EUROESCOLA, which is about our cultural Heritage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMipWUDJBn4
So, this year we have just started an eTwinning Project  and  an Erasmus+  together with a School in Germany called  Kaufmänische Schule in Heidenheim.
There are other interesting projects at school related to the  environmental sustainibility and we are growing an organic garden:

It includes all aspects of the environment resulting from the interaction between people and places through time.”]]> 2018-05-01 15:05:13 UTC https://padlet.com/pinarubia174/2e4e1swresv0/wish/256888523 My opinion pinarubia174 https://padlet.com/pinarubia174/2e4e1swresv0/wish/256889068 WE ARE OUR MEMORIES, we are what we have lived, felt and  loved. NOTHING around us, people, monuments, customs, attitudes, thoughts, feelings, dreams etc,   is UNIMPORTANT for our life NOW and TOMORROW, and, that’s OUR CULTURAL HERITAGE, that’s what makes us feel strong and ALIVE.  We must fight for CARING OUR HERITAGE THROUGH EDUCATION and  loving what we do  and have around us. If we teach them to love their cultural heritage, THEIR TANGIBLE AND INTANGIBLE OBJECTS, they will feel the important role they have to play to live in a better world and preserve their cultural heritage.

At first they pinch a little, but you like the way they look, so you carry on. The longer you have them, the more comfortable they become. Until one day without realizing it you reach a glorious plateau. Wearing those shoes is like wearing no shoes at all. The more scuffed they get, the more you love them and the more you can't imagine life without them.”

In our school, we have just started an Erasmus+-eTwinning project together with a school in Germany in order to discover and share our Cultural Heritage. We want to encourage our students to become interested in what they are surrounded by and in those significant human aspects which join us. We think that working together will encourage them to know other cultures and respect them making our coexistence easier and more enriching.


We have thought about sharing radio programmes, videos and other activities we do related to literature, science and environmental sustainability. 


Next Wednesday 9th of May we will have a video conference with a German School for our students to talk about stereotypes, both German and Spanish, and how to break them.

In Literaature, our students read texts in different languages at the library during the break once  a month. The activity is called “Today It is Read…” (“Hoy nos Lee…) and we usually carry out the activity to  celebrate specific days such as “The International Peace Day”, “Love Poems for Saint Valentine’s Day”, “The International Women’s Day”, “The International Day of the Book”.

Cultural heritage has a crucial role to play in education. 
Europeana’s digitised collection of cultural heritage can provide
  • multiple perspectives on historical, political, economic, cultural and human developments across Europe and beyond.
  • support teaching and learning with innovative tools and resources like virtual learning environments (Historiana), eBooks (World War I: A battle of perspectives) or apps and games (Art Stories FACES). 
  • a Guide to using Europeana, which gives search tips and information on copyright and crediting, and Transcribathon, an online collaborative tool that allows students to transcribe World War I original documents such as diaries or letters and engage more fully with their past.

I am a Teacher of English and next year I will encourage my students to do presentations using the information we have in Europeana and this way they will manage to  improve their English and their knowledge on Cultural Heritage. Thanks a lot!!!
