The emotions book is our last activity for this school year. Pupils had to create a book full of emotions while using several materials. In our school we thought of giving to this activity another dimension thus we created our "emotions face book". The idea was to create a little person with many facial expressions which will be easy for any pupil to choose the face that suits him/her best depending on his or her mood. We hope you like the outcome. We sure loved it even though we still havent't come up with his name!.
In the "Face puzzle" activity High school students were in charge of offering the activity to pupils with ASD from Primary education. See what happened!
Here is the video

techniques used in art therapy with SEN students, the visitors took part in
workshops for students and saw the results of our programme.

Personally, I like warm, vivid colors and these are
accompanied me every step in the school. Just the atmosphere and the
relationship between the students and the staff was very pleasant. I enjoyed
socializing and outdoor activities. I like the presentation of daily
activities, which are also presented how important activities for independent
living are (ironing, folding clothes, making beds beds, sewing, ...).
I got many
ideas in the classroom, where students
are engaged in the work for the teachers's needs (cutting,
stapling, laminating, production of teaching material, ...). Thank you for the
opportunity that we had with the students in the workshops, so in this way we feelt the atmosphere and the students too. School bar was something very special, and
the students were great Caterers.
My impressions while visiting school CEE Can Rigol is
very positive, thanks to the students and the staff for the warm welcome and
all the activities that they prepared
for us. I got many ideas, which they can be use in my work.
Alenka Kosem, Art Teacherfrom Primary school dr. Ljudevita Pivka Ptuj, Slovenia
Barcelona and El Prat de Llobregat are cities with a rich history, architecture, great
temperament and also I have experienced like that too. With the daily
activities in the school CEE CAN RIGOL I
captivated with character of the people,
their peaceful pace of life, which is reflected on a very friendly professional
school staff and indirectly on students. At this calm, you get the feeling that
everybody on the easier way overcome obstacles
and conquering new knowledge and experience. Even the visual image of the
school, equipped with art products full of diverse colors expresses warmth and
cosiness.
With carefully choosing and great prepared activities which we
attended, you realize the importance of
the integration of intercultural education in different areas of school work
and increasing the socio-cultural awareness, integration, inclusion and thus
the quality of education. Such activities contribute to the breaking down of
borders between countries, cultures, languages ... but also borders within
ourselves, which we may not be aware of.
Tanja Nikolovski, special teacher and school Erasmus+ coordinator
Visited school CEE Can Rigol has been fantastic experiance: I've met marvelous teachers and learnt lot from their, got many useful ideas for my work with students and really enjoyed every single moment in all the activities you have arranged for us. I saw many very entusiastic teachers.
I
like the Colourful of the school places. It is evident that all the school
staff entirely dedicated to this difficult profession. Every visitors of the
CEE CAN RIGOL school can feel like at home, and very warm welcome.
The time and emotions I've felt with the teachers and students from your school
I will remember forever.
Also
We saw how much you have done for the success of every activity of the
programme. Visited amazing places in El Prat de Llobregat, Barcelona
and Sigets gave me unforgettable moments. Thanks for all these things and
thanks to have hosted us in your beautiful country.
During the art lessons, first we
repeated the characteristics of different stripes and colors. Depending on the
shape, thickness, length, ...we can also
determine the character of the line. Therefore, we can say that the lines can
be gentle, bold, coarse, fearful, fine, elegant, clumsy, serious, dramatic ...
straight line expresses a certain hardness, stiffness, sharpness, rigor,
coldness, fault line, in contrast to the flat soft, warm, emotional.
Even colors can have different effect on us.
At many cases, we found that some color
operating uncomfortable on us - we are talking about screaming,
dirty, toxic colors. However, when the color effect on us pleasant, then we are
talking about moderate, mild, nice, clean colors. Colors also can provoke people in very emotional mood, soothe or even can irritate them. When rendering motif through color and line we always expressed a mood.
Next step with students was conversation shifted to
the music. Students were listen two songs and expressed their emotions through the painting. We found that the music affects us in a different ways. At some tracks
become thoughtful, sad ... while others of us may wake up, enliven and put us
in a cheerful mood.
This was followed by the
announcement of tasks. Most of the pupils at the
first track, "Adagio in G Minor" (Tomaso Albinoni) reflect the
gentle, soft lines and subtle colors. The resulting addresses are works of art:
The awakening of nature, Funeral, Violin ... When playing the second song
"Fire Dance" (Manuel de Falla) the atmosphere was completely
different. The song was raise strong, unpleasant, dramatic emotion to the pupils. Artworks were created in dark colors
with harsh lines. They named them: Runing away from a Stranger, Breeze, Storm,
Fight animal, Rushing River ...
Students of the lower classes they
felt an event in the music and they visualized it, while the students in the
last course, created mostly abstract
motifs played with the lines and colors.
