My name is María José Sierras although my pupils call me Mrs Buxton (my husband is British... and furthermore my mother-in-law is French, my sister-in-law is Belgian and one of my brother-in-law is American).
I’m a Secondary education teacher at Madre María Rosa Molas School (Zaragoza, Spain). I teach English but I’m also the European School Coordinator. Our Célula Europa team (a group of teachers for European initiatives) has been enthusiastically participating in lots of European projects since 2009.
We have run a Bilingual Programme at our school for the last seven years. This year we are running three Erasmus + projects. Our 3rd year secondary students are playing their role as English language assistants in our KA229 Erasmus + "Teaching Leadership Programme (TLP)". Our KA101 Erasmus + "Little Eyes Light Up (LELU)" will give the chance our teachers to do training courses on CLIL and job shadow and teach in Bristish Infant schools. Our 4th secondary students will be on stage in our Erasmus +KA229 Erasmus + "Aquellos Días Azules (ADA)". Our Erasmus + KA101 AOE (Aprender Observar Enseñar) was chosen as good practice example in the Erasmus + Project Results Platform last year.
We'd like to work on projects for pupils between 6/7 and 15/16 years old. Our aim is to show our students how to work on a common project using different academic perspectives and sharing different opinions. As our students are from 3 to 17 years old, we also welcome projects for students of all these ages.
