Food Issues

Nowadays, there are a lot ot children with food problems: allergies, diabetes, celiac... Some teachers think that they are concerned about teaching their subject, but there are some contents which can be taught in every subect and they can be more useful than other contents which are very especific of a particular subject.

If we want to conect the learning of the foreign language with the real life of the learners, it is a good way to get it. We can teach the foreign language through teaching the learners some food issues and how to help or contribute with people who have some problems with food. 

How to be respectful with them by knowing information about different daily problems with food.

Here, you can find a lot of different materials to work with Food Issues.

Tolerance and Respect

Foreign Language Teacher should also be worried about learners' relationships. There are some values which are very important, and some Foreign Language Teachers forget about them. These values are sometimes more important than other contents of the official curriculum.

It is very important to create a great and relaxed clime and atmosphere where eveyone feels confortable and integrated. To get this objective, teachers should teach theis students about tolerance and respect. Learners should listen to their classmates, they should respect the differences...

The differences are good. Dealing with different people in a classroom means: celebrating the differences because everyone is unique and individual-no one is normal- we are all different; and providing a wide range of tasks to attempt to different needs and interests.

For us, tolerant and respect are values which must be worked in every classroom and every teacher of every subject shoul dedicate some session to transmit them.

In this blog, we also want to share some useful resources for working these important values.

Recycling...

Recycling is a very interesting content to teach. 

It is usually interesting for the students and it is very useful for real life. Foreign Language Teachers should conect the contents with the learners' lives so it is a good way to achieve this objective. The main objective should be to use the foreign language as a tool for communication, and teaching recycle contents is a good way to get it.

In this blog we want to introduce some materials and resources which can be useful to teach abour recycling.
