Cuando terminan la etapa de Infantil, los alumnos tienen una mayor predisposición a preguntarse y entender las razones de todo lo que existe. En esta nueva etapa de primaria, es importante dar un paso que les permita adentrarse en el estudio de cada aspecto particular, profundizando y alcanzando un mayor conocimiento de todo lo que les rodea.

Autonomy

Collaborative work
The school is a privileged place of socialization. Learning how to work with others, sharing in the discovery of how the world is made, discussing ideas, sharing their own ideas and creations, finding solutions through dialogue all promotes the growth of his personality and generates the security and maturity to face the adventure of life.
A job well done
In the early ages, children are not yet aware of the value of things well, especially since it takes effort and patience. It will be the teacher who accompanies them who encourages and guides them to make the best of their work, helping them understand that beauty is deeply aligned with their nature.
Study
The classroom is the first place of study, where the experience of meaningful, critical and independent learning begins. It is through study that students learn to have a dialogue, to reason and work together. This introduces the student to the joy of learning and helps them discover their full potential.
The adult
Every educational experience requires the presence of two key figures: the student and the teacher. The adult brings with them a sense of positivity and a deep-rooted certainty about reality, inviting the student to identify with the fundamental principle of life. Together they will embark on the adventure of discovering the world, learning to possess it in some way, and so, perceiving .the positivity of life as a gift.
Getting to know reality through our sensitive and perceptive dimension is the starting point. It comes before conceptualization and marks the transition from concrete experience to abstract thinking. Our first task is to teach students to observe with all their senses; they are invited to encounter, become intrigued by, and question the world around them.
The path to true knowledge begins with questioning—born from fascination and attraction to what exists. The teacher nurtures this process by cultivating curiosity and attentiveness. The classroom becomes a space of guided exploration that launches students into the pursuit of knowledge.
La realidad se hace transparente en la experiencia. En Primaria hay que trabajar con elementos manipulativos para aprender. Favorecerá la comprensión de los conceptos y enriquecerá otro tipo de capacidades fundamentales para el desarrollo de toda la persona: autocorrección, creatividad, seguridad…
We don’t remain on the surface of what we encounter—we go deeper by asking questions. The teacher supports this process by encouraging the use of reason and thoughtful inquiry. In this way, students are offered a genuine experience of knowledge that nurtures a deeper awareness of their own humanity. The teacher help in this journey, fostering through the art of the question, the use of reason and deep understanding of reality; in this way it gives a real experience of knowledge that increases the awareness of his humanity.
