CONOCIMIENTO DEL MEDIO 3º DE PRIMARIA

Los contenidos de la asignatura Conocimiento del Medio se agrupan

en tres bloques, uno por trimestre y constan de 5 unidades cada uno.
Teniendo en cuenta la temporalización de la asignatura que se ha hecho
para todo el curso, se calcula aproximadamente de diez a doce sesiones por
tema lo que viene a ser dos semanas por unidad.
En esta primera unidad todos los contenidos se darán en lengua
inglesa. El fin del uso de esta segunda lengua no es otro que reforzar los
contenidos estudiados en lengua materna y al mismo tiempo desarrollar las
competencias lingüísticas en la L2 , lo que se viene denominando AICLE
(aprendizaje integrado de contenidos y lengua extranjera) .
En este colegio y durante este curso los alumnos/as siguen el libro de
conocimiento del medio de 3º de la editorial ANAYA, el cual va a servir
de referencia para la programación de distintas actividades que posibiliten
la iniciación del idioma extranjero dentro de una asignatura de área no
lingüística.
La primera unidad que vamos a trabajar será:
Los seres vivos/ living things.
