2. It was once a School,
located in Vieira de
Leiria…
3. The School had many spaces ...
Interior and exterior spaces…
4. And it had
many
students of
different
ages,
distributed
by four
levels of
teaching:
Preschool
education,
first cycle,
second and
third cycles
and
Secondary
Education.
5. One day the wind brought a
little paper airplane to the
schoolyard.
Then a boy who passed by
picked him up from the
ground.A paper
airplane,
I'll read Music… is
Life Long
Learning
The boy
read
what
was
written
on the
airplane
paper.
Here's an
interesting
project!
6. I'm going to
show my
classmates and
teachers. This
can be a fun way
to learn!
See this
project.
You think
so?
It seems to
me that it
helps to
learn
better.
João
liked it!
7. I will look for
and show more
colleagues, the
more you
participate, the
better it is for
everyone.
Very good, I
think you should
show everyone
at the School.
8. Then the boy found two more students and together they read the
paper.
It's very
interesting, I
want to
participate
The
project
speaks of
learning
Portuguese
through
music! I
like that!
9. Margarida was
right, here it says
that Music
facilitates
learning! I'll ask
the Library.
The
library…
10. The Library had many students and the boy took the
opportunity to talk to everyone about the new project.
And me
too!
Cool! I can
learn and
improve my
grades.
That's a
great idea.
And it
involves
several
countries.
11. I'll like it more
Portuguese.
Classes will be
more
interesting!
12. I think we
should
talk to
more
students.
I'm reading
very
carefully
and I think
it's good for
me and my
class.
13. I'll talk to
some more
students
and then I
have to talk
to the
teachers.
We should
also talk to
other adults
who work at
the School
E assim o menino terminou de apresentar o projeto aos outros
alunos e foi à procura de adultos.
14. Hello D.
Judite,
Read this
project
and tell us
your
opinion.
It might be
that with this
design they
will be calmer
... after all
music relaxes!
I already
convinced D.
Judite!
15. Very well! Even
I will get to
know more
about the
countries of
this project!
Are you
reading? Are
you okay?
Now I'm
going to
convince the
staff of the
Library
This
student is
very
interested!
16. The Library is
a very
important
place,
because there
you can get
information
about the
countries that
are part of
the project.
17. You can count
on me!
Help us to
research to
work on this
Project?
18. So the boy went to look for teachers and told them about the
project.
I will see the
objectives and
integrate into the
classes.
Good ...
very
important
to know
Europe.
If the History
Teacher likes it,
it's a sign that it
will go well.
Professora
Cristina,
look ...
19. I'll speak to the
English
Teacher,the
Arts Teachers,
and the Special
Education
teachers.
I've heard,
it's very
interesting!
20. And the boy there continued to
divulge and to motivate all the
teachers of the different
disciplines for the development
of the Project.
This
teacher
will like
it too.
A school
united around
Music and a
Project! Now
it's starting to
implement
END OF CHAPTER I
21. Teachers began to talk to each other and plan activities ...
In Portuguese
Language classes
we will begin the
study of the Poetic
Text.
What if we
introduce Music?
Yes, it would be a way to
work the Motivation
Attention / Concentration
Willingness
Emotions / Affectivity.
22. You can develop
activities in the
1st and 2nd year.
That's what you're
reading.
It needed an
activity to
reinforce the
expressive reading
and at the same
time addressed
the vowels and
consonants
23. We can introduce
instruments like this:
Metals for consonants
and percussion for
vowels. In this way you
work the concentration
and ...
And I can also
introduce palms
to set the pace
of the reading.
I'm going to
write a few
rhythms
here for 1st
year
students
That's a
good
idea!
And I
can use
it in
support
classes.
24. The Text of "Nau
Catrineta" seems to
give many
possibilities to work
with Music.
Promotes
concentration
and motivates
mother tongue
learning
Isabel is
already
preparing the
text.
I think it
will go
well in
my class!
In the work room, the teachers plan and prepare the
classes.
25. I already have some
proposals of work
for the students of
the 6th grade. I'll
send it to everyone.
Planning is already
ready for the
exploration of the
text and it gives to
work many skills
And instruments to
evaluate?
26. The proposal to
evaluate is this, do
you think?
Yes!
I think so,
it's
accessible.
With the
students of the
lower levels we
have to fill out
with each of the
students.
27. Tomorrow I'm going to
Preschool to talk to the
Minita Educator and take the
evaluation sheets.
And I'll talk
to Fernando
and take
stuff.
The next day…
So Minita, how's it
going?
It's very interesting,
the little ones love
Stories and Music.
28. This was the
material I
received. The
assessment
sheets and
other material
to apply in the
Portuguese
Language.
That's the
same, share
with me for my
2nd year
students. Lend
me the
Handbook with
that funny
poem.
This text is very
good with Music, it
gives to work the
oral expression
and the emotions.
That's it, I'll
work it out
and then
we'll come
and
introduce
you.
END OF CHAPTER II
29. In the class the students of the 6th year read the poetic
text "A Nau Catrineta"
This poetic
text is
complicated!
30. Me too! It was
uninteresting!
I will evaluate on the
sad smile.
31. In the classes the students of the 3rd and 4th year ...
In the Manual of
Portuguese
Language, let's read
the Poem.
The students
were very
focused, but
they looked sad.
32. This is very
hard. I'll
read it
again.
I've read it
twice and
still have
not noticed
the text.
33. In the room of
the 1st and 2nd
year ... the
students read a
poem.
I read it
once and did
not
understand
the poem!
I do not
understand
any of this!
I've read it
twice and I
did not
realize
34. In the pre-school room ... the little ones hear the
Educator reading a Poem.
They are
attentive, but
they should
not be aware!
?????
????
?????
????
END OF CHAPTER III
35. Then the teachers
began to put into
practice everything
they had planned.
They began to
develop the Project
with the students.
Now let's introduce rhythm into
reading.
38. In the 3rd and 4th year ...
Professor Fernando introduced
the Music.
I learn better
now!
Me too!
39. In the 1st and 2nd year ... the Teacher brought musical
instruments ...
I can already
distinguish the
consonants!
And I know
the vowels!
40. I already told a
story!
I said a
“lengalenga!”
I'm
reading
better!
41. We learn more with
Music ... to read, to
make up stories and
to make flowers for
Spring. We're quieter
in class!
42. The little ones explored a poem for Father's Day and
were happier!
43. With this project I realized
that music helps to learn
better, helps to be more
focused and committed. In
addition to the activities of
the Portuguese Language,
this project influenced the
other disciplines because
after all Portuguese is
transversal to all disciplines.
Music ... is Long Life Learnig has
opened a window to get to know
other realities of Europe.
53. And there came the day to go to Zaragoza, Spain, to
present the work developed.
Parents, staff and colleagues said goodbye and wished
them good luck and a good trip.
And here
we go to
Spain!
