Picasso


Our pupils should know the importance of history for their own future. If we learn from our mistakes, we won’t make them again.
On the 26th April 1937, the village of Guernica (Vizcaya) was bombed by the German Condor Legion and the Italian Legionary Air Force. It was a disaster for the village and a reflection of what a war means.
In this project four subjects are going to work together: Social Science, Spanish, French and Arts.

At the beginning, in Social Science, they are going to get information on different websites about where Guernica is, its history, its geography, its population,… and also about the bombs in Guernica.

Moreover, in Spanish, they are going to create a biography of Picasso and some of his most well-known paintings.

Later, in French, the teacher is going to introduce Guernica and also Picasso by using the following presentation:

At the end, in Arts pupils are going to create their own version of the painting “Guernica” of Picasso.

First of all, we are going to watch next video in which it is said how the roman empire was founded and there is a brief explanation about roman cities. After watching the video, I will divide the class in groups of four or five. Along two weeks, we are going to elaborate different roman cities with recycled materials such as, tetrapacks, empty bottles, containers, tins, cardboards, papers… To do that, I have prepared a Powerpoint for the ...
