Defining themselves
Middle school
Our methodology
Reaching middle school also implies a change of mentality. The main goal in 1ºESO is “learning how to learn”. Our student begins to gain self-confidence, autonomy, and maturity.
In these years, the intellectual developmentof students must be enhanced with a constructive methodology that turns them into creative, critical, and reflective thinkers. We work in an interdisciplinary way and we encourage students to make connections between what they learn and real life.
Inquiry units
We promote curiosity, entrepreneurship, environmental sustainability, creativity, critical thinking, intercultural understanding and effort. We work by units of inquiry and contextualization, promoting a competence assessment model. We pursue an intellectual and emotional challenge that helps them grow as a person.
Public speaking
One of the skills that we promote is public speaking. Our students have an average of 24 annual individual and groups presentations, through which they develop their skills to capture the attentionof the audience, share their knowledge and tell stories. The ability to transmitand defend your ideas is among the most valued in the professional world.
Research projects
We are committed to innovative and alternative methodologies. For this reason, we are open to a teaching model that allows our students to get to know the world around them through projects in which they are the main character. Research, analysis and presentations have an initialed working modelthat helps our students to learn, self-evaluate and continue learning.
Science
Learning mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology are a hallmark at Liceo Sorolla. We work both concepts and mechanics necessary to ensure that students acquire a solid foundation. We approach each concept from different points of view and introduce graphic and contextualized elements.
#Decarbonize
We feel responsible for instilling in all our students the responsibility of caring for the planet. Our “green leaders”project educates in values such as recycling, environmental awareness, intellectual activism or renewable energy. All students receive training and participate for at least one year in this program.
Values
Every month we work on a different value. This subject has weekly sessions to work on, encouraging analysis and communication through a wide variety of activities (projects, posters, plays, films, fairs …).
Music bands
The school is committed to Foster music and performing arts. We have numerous music bands with different styles made up of students of different ages. Every year we carry out solidarity concerts inside and outside the school to help those most in need. These bands are multi age and multi-cultural and have become one of the most popular educational vehicles in our community.
Entrepreneurship
Our students are entrepreneurs by nature. From the moment they enter the school, they carry out small entrepreneurial projectsthat range from campaigns to be a class representative, to campaigns to protect the environment. Senior students carry out a business fairin which they present their start-ups to the rest of their classmates and participate in a contest where parents are the jury.
Technology
In high school we introduce programming with java script, visual, inventor app, autocad and wordpress, among other tools. We use 3D printers, graphic design applications and introduce our students to virtual reality. Our fundamental objective is to train intuitive people, capable of adapting quickly to any computer program.
