     1. Description of the class

The professor showed us the basics of lomloe.  We can find here  keys and specific competences that students need to achieve, but also it contemplates the three cycles in Primary Education as we have a few years ago. In addition, we learnt a new concept, CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference) is a document in which we can find the skills and knowledge that require each language level (B1, B2, C1…), so this allow us to know the level of students of a certain language, In addition, it contains Orentations to teach different language.

Finally, the professor introduced us plurilingualism, multilingualism and approach adopted.

2    2. Describe what you learn in the class

I learnt the difference between plurilingualism and multilingualism.

•          The first one refers to a person who is able to speak different languages (three or more)
•        The second one refers to the coexistence of several languages within the same social group or territory.

On the other hand, I learnt some about approach adopted: action-orientated. It defines that learners are social agents and the only way to teach them is the action (tasks, activities)

      3. Opinion about the class

Thanks to this class I have learned more about the new law (Lomloe). I think that it is very important show what is current nowadays in order to have a better adaptation in the future.

    1.  Description of the class

The professor explained more about CEFR, so we learnt about General and Communicative Competences.

General Competences mean those that everybody have.

•            Having knowledge refers to what you have to learn
•           Skills and know-how refers to the abilities
•           Existencial competence refers to individual characteristics, attitudes or personality train.
•           The ability to learn

Communicative language Competence has tree different components:

•           Linguistic refers to lexical, phonological, syntactical knowledge
•            Socialinguistic refers to sociocultural condintions (social rules). For example when we use expression such as “ please “
•           Pragmatic refers to cohesion, coherence, identification of the text types, irony and parody.

Finally, she taught us more specifically the advantages provided by the Portfolio.

      2. Describe what you learn in the class

I learnt several things:

•           Pilars of delords: to know, to do, to live and to be
•           The European Language Protfolio was developed by the Language Policy Programme of the Council of Europe.
•           Common Reference Level is divided in three descritors: Basic User, Independent User, Proficiency User
•           In skills we include mediation apart from Listening, Readinig, Spoken interaction, Spoken Pronunciation, Writing.
•           Euroean Language Portfolio has three components: Passport of languages, Linguistic Biography and the Dossier. It consists in the collection of tasks of each student that consider interesting and motivating in order to study more languages.
•          The importance of contextualized tasks in class.

3    3. Opinion about the class.

I think the introduction of the Portfolio in the classroom is a good way to motivate students. For this reason, the class was very hepful to learn new strategies so that children are curious to learn other languages, or simply to keep their attetion on any subject.
