De nuevo la biblioteca del instituto colabora con las movilidades de los programas Erasmus del centro.
Con motivo del viaje de profesores y alumnos a Osijek (Croacia) hemos dedicado nuestro rincón del lector a la lengua y literatura croatas.
El croata es una lengua indoeuropea que conserva 7 casos. Se escribe utilizando el alfabeto latino y presenta 3 dialectos. En la época de Yugoslavia el idioma oficial era el serbocroata, que se consideraba una unidad lingüística.
El poeta que hemos seleccionado para presentar la literatura croata es Arsen Dedić (28 de julio de 1938 – 17 de agosto de 2015), muy conocido en su país en su faceta de cantautor. Como homenaje a su figura os adjuntamos la letra de una de sus canciones, Čistim svoj život, Estoy limpiando mi vida.
Estoy Limpiando Mi Vida
Limpio mi vida, a través de la ventana, el armario viejo,
limpio mi espacio de cosas innecesarias..
¿Dónde las compré?
¿Dónde las recolecté?
Yo limpio mi vida, ellos sacan la basura los viernes
cuando esperan despertar, y cuando es una tarde templada…
¿Dónde las compré?
¿Dónde las recolecté?
Limpio mi vida de esa gente hueca,
cuyo viento les sopla por la cabeza y el pecho…
¿Dónde las compré?
¿Dónde las recolecté?
Limpio mi vida, para guardar mientras sea el tiempo,
un poco de ternura matutina y semillas amargas de noche…
WE BEGIN. With dreams and great enthusiasm, the Spanish Team leaves for Osijek (Croatia) to participate in the fourth mobility of the project “The power of understanding” (March, 21-25).
Waiting times at the airport are filled with rehearsals for our intervention in the different activities scheduled in an intense calendar.
FIRST DAY. Throughout the morning we got to know all the participants through their interesting presentations at the OSNOVNA SKOLA “REFTALA”. In the same way we made our city and our center known. In addition, we were able to enjoy the enormous hospitality of our hosts.
After a hearty and cheerful meal, we toured the most emblematic places in the city admiring its old buildings. Our guide Nada told us stories about the city and its connection with none other than Picasso.
After regaining strength, we participated in the welcome dinner at the skola. We ate, danced and sang non-stop, making the first day a memorable one.
SECOND DAY. This day was devoted entirely to a visit to the KOPAĈKI RIT natural park, located about 30 km from Osijek and, watered by the waters of the Danube, one of the largest wetlands in Europe. Brimming with life, it is home to multiple species of birds, fish and mammals. Unfortunately it was also home to countless anti-personnel mines, a hateful remnant of the Balkan war. Our students, armed with compasses and binoculars, traveled a pleasant path in search of the representative bird of the park: the white-tailed eagle.
Our Spanish team planted a tree in the hope of returning one day.
We finished the visit with a boat trip where a guide explained the fauna of the park.
THIRD DAY. From the first hour and with the help of the ACTIONBOUND APP, the different teams toured the city in search of the information that they later shared in the skola with the other students in the CITY MAPPING workshop.
On the other hand, the members of the club: little ecologists, made the appropriate presentations before the attentive gaze of their colleagues in an entertaining workshop.
FOURTH DAY. The PAPUK nature park in Jankovac was our destination on the fourth day of our mobility. An extensive mass of beeches in a dream setting, this is how this natural park is, the first inland tourist destination in Croatia and a member of the World Network of Geoparks protected by UNESCO.
In the afternoon and on our way back to Osijek, we visit the town of Đakovo to admire its beautiful cathedral and visit the stables of one of the most famous horses in the world, the Lipizzans.
The day ended with a fun dinner at a nice local restaurant.
FIFTH DAY. We said goodbye to our happy stay in Osijek learning some Croatian and composing our own BEĆARAC (popular song).
We got to know more about that powerful teaching communication tool that is ETWINNING and the day ended with a lively lunch where the students, sad for the end of the experience, sang and danced sharing the last minutes of this unforgettable trip.
On Saturday, we finished this incredible experience and sadly we flew back to our town.
Our memories and hearts will guard the emotions of these days of coexistence with our project partners as well as the immense hospitality and joy of our Croatian colleagues.

Nuestros alumnos, a través de sus actuaciones musicales y de danza, destacaron el leitmotiv del encuentro: los héroes a través de la historia y nuestros héroes de hoy en día. Un hermoso vídeo resaltó el patrimonio artístico-cultural de nuestra ciudad y sirvió de aperitivo para todas las actividades organizadas entre los días 8 y 12 de noviembre para el encuentro. Palabras como UNDERSTANDING, COOPERATION, FRIENDSHIP, SELF-ESTEEM Y COMUNICATION sonaron más fuertes y significativas que nunca en nuestro centro.

We have prepared a wide cultural program to show our rich history, art, cultural heritage and amazing landscapes. And we hope the scheduled activities will enrich our knowledge of other cultures too. By means of presenting our local heroes, their achievements, deeds and values we would exchange our immense rich European history. We are sure our national heroes will become true role models for us. When you think of the word “hero” nowadays something springs to mind:“A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of all the obstacles».
Victoria and Saskia, two amazing talented singers performed songs centered on real current «heroes». We can be heroes too!
The international participants got to know the school by taking a School Walking Tour guided by the Spanish teachers.

Furthermore, we had the chance to socialise at the coffee breaks! Besides, our students developed several workshops conducted by the Spanish English teachers: “Ice-breakers” with the aim of getting to know each other. The students from these 6 partner schools had to carry out different tasks, and games which involved asking and talking to their mates.

On the 2nd Day, the activities focused on the Club «Travelling in time and space» started taking a trip to get to the history and foundation of Astorga as Roman town and the development of St. James´Road, which explains the settlements along the Holy Way. From the Pyrenees to Santiago de Compostela, the French Way passes through the regions of Aragón, Navarre, La Rioja, Castile and Leon, and Galicia on a route followed by over 150,000 pilgrims every year. This pilgrimage first began when the tomb of Saint James the Apostle was discovered in the 9th century. Both students and teachers visited Astorga, its Roman sites and beautiful cathedral, whose construction began in 1471, and was completed in the eighteenth century. We specially admired the Renaissance façade of the Bishops by Rodrigo Gil de Hontañón.
Astorga cathedralAstorga groupGaudíAstorga roman remains
ASTORGA CHOCOLATE MUSEUM. Studying the history of Astorga, we learnt the importance of chocolate manufacturing by attending a guided tour around the museum which houses a complete display of tools and objects that represent the history of chocolate production: instruments for roasting, refining and rolling, as well as pans, mortars, moulds and machines from the early 19th century.
IRON CROSS. Participants had the opportunity to take a short walk along St. James´s Way and became pilgrims by tossing a stone to the iron cross Cruz de Hierro at Mount Irago near Foncebadón. It is one of the most simple but strong spiritual places of the St. James Way to Santiago de Compostela. Every pilgrim throws one stone onto the hill to symbolize the liberation of all his worries!!!
St. James Cruz de Ferro
MOLINASECA. We took a rest having lunch in this typical and beautiful medieval village.
Molinaseca
LAS MÉDULAS. The ancient Roman goldmines about 20km southwest of Ponferrada, once served as the main source of gold for the entire Roman Empire. Declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1997 and Natural Monument in 2002.
It was stunningly beautiful, especially at sunset – and one of the most bizarre landscapes you’ll see in Spain. The best views are from the Mirador de Orellán.
Originally Las Médulas were a mining site. Considered the biggest gold mine built by the Roman Empire, it was abandoned in the 3rd century after extracting 800,000 kg gold. Thereafter, the native vegetation began to gradually cover the hills of red sand. These hills were formed in Roman times by turning over the interior layers of the earth. Thus, they created galleries in which they injected pressurized water with which they crumbled the slopes of the mountains, bringing the mineral to the surface.
Spanish teamLas Médulas
PONFERRADA TEMPLAR CASTLE. In the evening, we ended up visiting another historical site in the province of León: the Templar Castle of Ponferrada. The castle is enormous in size and the architecture is stunning. It was designed in a polygonal shape, with double and triple defences, making it an absolute fortress.
As you marvel at the giant walls, you will travel back in time to a medieval period where Spanish Knights roamed the outskirts of the structure, protecting the town.

On the 3rd day, in the Short-term Transnational Exchange held in León, Spain, and dealing with the focused on activities of the Club “Traveling in time and space», participants kept on working with the aim of improving the students´ understanding competences of literary and non- literary texts and developing cooperation an collaboration skills, tolerance and initiative, as well as friendship between pupils from partner schools.
Focusing on the character of Odysseus/ Ulysses, we paid tribute to classic European heroes which are a universal reference both in conduct and behaviour.This tribute became visible in murals which contained artistic creations related with Ulysses (drawings, quotations, poems etc.).
Each country provided a text in which, in any format, the first 10 verses of The Odyssey in their native language were written and read out. The beautiful verses fron the Odyssey were listened in the 6 languages of the 6 European partner Schools.
Portugal
CroatiaLithuaniaSpain
LOCAL HEROES. Each country prepared and carried out a presentation about one of their famous historical national heroes. Each partner picked up a representative character from an essential historic period in the country.
Along with his/her human description, the most important facts of the country where these heroes come from were summarised, the background situation in the country. We listened to the description of these fabulous HEROES´ legends and their greatest achievements : real human portraits whose deed made a huge difference in the history of their countries. True role models for every modern individual!
Here we can see how proud the students presented their creative works. A way to bring classical history to our modern .
CroatiaCyprusRomaniaPortugal
MODERN HEROES. After having worked with classical, and historical heroes, we ended up presenting modern heroes by means of short videos created by the students in each country. They presented a person who is considered as a hero/ heroine in nowadays world.
Basically pupils stated the kind of individuals they look up to: those real humans who have had the courage to overcome massive obstacles, whose hard-work ang generosity are currently making a difference and, by the way, are closer to us than we could have thought of!: nurses, actors performers, sport people, but also mothers and……TEACHERS!
Spanish video: «Our hero teachers»
WORKSHOPS: Bulls and Fibulae. Time for creativity!. Based on Roman pieces of jewellery, our international students had the chance to develop their immense creativity with the feeling of great pride on their beautiful creations. Here a few samples!
SAN ISIDORO. The Royal Collegiate of St Isidoro in León, is one of the most important Romanesque sites of Europe that have more than a thousand years of history. From its birth in the 10th Century , St Isidoro and its museum have become cultural and artistic reference point for the city of León.
Collegiate of St Isidoro
The building of the Royal Panteon was comissioned by the King Fernando 1st. and the Queen Sancha in 11th. Century. The frescoes ordered by their daughter Urraca, are considered to be a magnificent piece of art and known as the Sixtine Chapel of the Romanesque Art. We visited the Church, the Royal Pantheon, Museum and impressive Romanesque frescoes.
A group of teachers and students from the Spanish School prepared a leflet with recorded podcasts which explained the most relevant pieces of the monument. We all had the opportunity to scan QR codes and listen to the explanations, recorded by the Spanish students and definitely «travel in time and space» to the attractive period of the Middle Ages.
Walking along the Roman Wall became also a beautiful experience at sunset!

TRADITIONAL MAGOSTO. Chesnut Festival. More Spanish traditions, this time a traditional autumn festival, where chesnuts are roasted, while listening to folk ancient songs and lots of fun dancing!

On the 4th day , JURASSIC MUSEUM OF ASTURIAS AND LA GRIEGA BEACH. On Thursday we went on a trip to Asturias, in northern Spain. A beautiful coastal area with breathtaking views and where the primitive Asturian kingdom settled in medieval times. Also the coast of dinosaurs. You only need to let your imagination fly and cast your gaze to where gigantic dinos trod millions of years ago. Our travellers went back through time and space to a coastal land that was then populated by dinos.
We visited the Jurassic Museum of Asturias and learnt lots of details from a guided tour around the museum. Located on a hill with spectacular views of the coast, the museum displays dinos bone collections from 3,500 million years along with 20 dinosaur replicas. A rich collection of footprints and fossils found in the Asturian Jurassic coastline, which are said to be «the most complete informative and representative collection of dinosaur remains in the world.»
After the Museum, we went to La Griega Beach, containing the tracks of the world’s largest sauropod. Everyone enjoyed the experience!
OVIEDO. In the afternoon, we took a guided tour around Oviedo, the capital city of the Principality of Asturias in northern Spain and the administrative and commercial centre of the region.
Guided walk OviedoGuided walk OviedoOviedo market
We learnt about the existence of The Kingdom of Asturias, which began in 720, with the Visigothic aristocrat Pelagius’ (685–737) revolt against the Muslims who at the time were occupying most of the Iberian Peninsula. The resulting Kingdom of Asturias, gained importance along the 8th., 9th. and 10th. centuries until the moving of the royal court to León, after the death of Alfonso III, ‘The Great’. With the magnificent cathedral of San Salvador, where some relics are preserved, and has been the centre of Oviedo´s pilgrimages to Santiago de Compostela.
Oviedo cathedral
On the 5th day, we started visiting LEON CATHEDRAL. On Friday morning we had the opportunity to visit the impressive León Cathedral, which is considered one of the Top 10 Cathedrals in Spain. It’s a French-inspired Gothic Cathedral built (between 1205 and 1301) over ancient Roman baths. What León Cathedral is really famous for is it’s incredible stained glass windows. The windows cover approximately 1,800 meters of surface, most of them still original to when the Cathedral was first constructed. Because of this, León Cathedral is nicknamed the “House of Light”.
BOTINES HOUSE by GAUDI. We enjoyed the guided visit to the Botines House (built 1891-1892), a Modernist building in León, designed by Antoni Gaudí. It currently houses a museum dedicated to Gaudi, Spanish art of the 19th and 20th centuries, and the history of the building itself. After being built for a fabrics company, it was adapted to serve as the headquarters of a local savings bank (first Caja León, later Caja España). With the Casa Botines, Gaudí wanted to pay tribute to León’s emblematic buildings. Therefore, he designed a building with a medieval air and numerous neo-Gothic characteristics.

FAREWELL LUNCH. Before saying goodbye, our Erasmus KA2 guests enjoyed a very special lunch together with the Spanish hosts at a beautiful restaurant: a former monastery in León. Here, we had a great time with our new friends!
Lunch together

Spanish team gratitude
Our guests received their certificates with massive smiles. Through our «travel in time and space» we had shared our rich history, art and cultural heritage. We have improved communication skills, the understanding of texts, developed teamwork and cooperative methods of working. By means of presenting our local heroes, their achievements, deeds and values, we have learnt that “A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of all the obstacles”, becoming true role models.
After these 3rd. short-term exchange, we have collected a number of beautiful memories. But more importantly through this experience, partner students and teachers have developed true frienship!

DAY 2
DAY 3
Students took a virtual tour- “The most important dates of Lithuanian history” finding out the most important historical dates in Lithuania. They learnt about “The independence day” through a virtual tour discovering the importance of the celebration. Then they solved a quiz about the history of Lithuania by kahoot. Another virtual tour took them to the national museum of Etnograpghy and got to know Lithuanian national cuisine. After all the online activities, students gave their feedback about the day and continued with the task after the lunch break. We all had lots of fun while learning about Lithuanian culture and are for sure really looking forward to visiting such an amazing country!
Nuevamente la biblioteca del instituto apoya las experiencias transnacionales de nuestro programa Erasmus +. En este caso, nos unimos a la experiencia virtual promovida por nuestros socios lituanos.
Nos acercamos a la lengua lituana, idioma de origen indoeuropeo que pertenece a la familia báltica, al igual que el letón. Es una lengua interesante para los lingüistas porque es “conservadora” y más próxima a la lengua madre indoeuropea que otras lenguas más evolucionadas. Conserva el carácter flexivo y mantiene siete casos y cinco declinaciones.
La literatura en lengua lituana ha tenido un difícil desarrollo a lo largo de varios siglos, marcado por la dependencia de Rusia, en primer término y la posterior integración del país en la URSS. Pese a todo, esta lengua hablada actualmente por unos cuatro millones de personas, ha pervivido y su literatura ha dado grandes nombres. Hemos querido centrar nuestro homenaje al lituano en la figura de la poeta Janina Degutytė, una mujer de honda y profunda sensibilidad. Como muestra de ello, os traemos al blog la traducción de uno de sus poemas.
LAMENTO
Le pregunté a los ríos: ¿dónde estás?
Le pregunté a las nubes: ¿dónde estás?
Y los ríos dijeron que no estás en esta tierra,
y las nubes respondieron que no estás en los cielos.
¿Quién peinará ahora mi cabello largo?
¿Quién me romperá un panal amarillo?
Los campos de la mañana están fríos y doloridos.
Mis manos están calientes y vacías por la noche. . .
¡Dime la flor en la que nacerás!
¡Dime el viento en el que cobrarás vida!

REBECA GONZALEZ GONZALEZ (2ºA)
I like the Erasmus so much, it’s a very cool experience, you learn a lot of English and a lot of new things you work with the technology and that’s good.
GERMAN SELLER TIJERA (2ºA)
I think than Erasmus is a good opportunity and experience to improve our English, get to know other cultures and it it’s good for our future.
JAIME RUIZ MIGUEL (2ºB)
Erasmus is my chance, is the best way to learn other languages and visit other cities or places. To be honest, I think that is very important because we can communicate with other people from other countries.
DANIEL SUAREZ MORENO (2ºA)
I have loved the experience of being able to connect and talk to new people and from other countries. The ability to learn and socialize with other people has been incredible since I have managed to learn a goal that I thought was impossible to be able to speak English fluently enough to communicate with foreigners.
ANA ISABEL LOBATO PRIETO (TEACHER)
From my point of view, this meeting week has been awesome. We have realized how, even being so far, we can share our feelings, our culture, our language… and we have been able to participate all together in the same project. It has supposed to me a great discovery.
I’m looking forward to meeting these students and teachers in person next November
ANA ISABEL FERRERAS VALLADARES (TEACHER)
Organised by our partners at Vilniaussavivaldybes Grigiskiu Sviesos Gimnazij: Lithuania“ and focused on the Club: “The Little journalists” . During the 5-day meeting, a total of 62 participants were gathered from the six partner organizations to promote reading and writing skills of literary and non-literary texts.
The Spanish team consisted of 4 students, 2 teachers and another teacher who backed us up technically.
Each day all the students worked collaboratively in mixed international groups to produce outcomes centred in different topics: A virtual tour around Lithuania where our pupils learnt about the main historical, cultural and natural sites of Lithuania (CLUB TRAVELING IN TIME AND SPACE), how to write an article (CLUB THE LITTLE JOURNALISTS), create awareness against pollution by making posters (CLUB THE LITTLE ECOLOGISTS), write a traditional recipe (CLUB WE ARE EUROPEAN CITIZENS). We were also introduced to folk music and the Lithuanian language (CLUB THE MAGIC OF THE WORD).
I value the absolutely innovative approach: teamwork through virtual tools such as KAHOOT, QUIZZES, JAMBOARDS, CHATS, GOOGLE CLASSROOM…
Once again I must say I feel so proud of our GINER students, who actively participated and did their best and the GINER group of teachers, who made a great effort to achieve the goal of celebrating an Erasmus virtual international meeting despite the pandemic circumstances.
