Report
6th
of February:
On the 6th of July we went from
Graz to Las Palmas by plane.
We met at 04:30
on the airport of Graz where we started our trip via Frankfurt to Las Palmas. We accompanied our three students to Las
Palmas where they were picked up by their host families. My college Miss Voit
and I went to our Hotel in Las Palmas to make the check in.
In the
afternoon we went for a walk through the City center of Las Palmas.
7th
+ 8th of February:
On the next
day, on Wednesday, we arrived at 08:30 in Valsequillo, the village of our host
school. The headmaster and Ricardo, our Erasmus Coordinator, gave us a warm
welcome.
The rest of
the day till 14:30 I could participate in the lessons of different Mathematics’
teachers.
Here you
can see my timetable for that week.

During the
week I was able to get to know different teachers, different methods of
teaching in different grades. So I enjoyed to have the possibility of great
diversion as well in the methods of
teaching as well as to get to know different students.
The most
fascinating experience was the fact that one of the Teachers is the author of
his own Mathematics’ book which he uses to teach in his lessons.
So I did
not only improve my Spanish and English knowledge but also acquired new
learning practices. I was also integrated in his lessons to help the students
to solve exercises in Math’s lessons and to share my own knowledge with them.
9th
of February:
In the
first three lessons I participated in lessons. Then we had the great chance to
see a special event of Carnival. All the teachers and students went together to
the townhall where some groups of students presented various songs and dance
performances. My colleague and I also danced with some teachers of Valsequillo
a typical dance of Spain.
After the
award ceremony for the best presentations all went together to a place where a
big fish made of paper and wood was burned. That’s a typical tradition of the
Gran Canarians Carnival.
After that
great experience we had lunch together with several teachers of the school.
10th
of February:
On Saturday
we made a trip to the South of Gran Canaria to explore and enjoy the wonderful reservation
of birds near Maspalomas.
11th
of February
On Sunday
we had to go back to Austria y plane.
It was a
great experience for me. I got to know so many nice people and enjoyed our
stay. I improved my linguistics skills and got to know new ways of teaching methods.
I´m so thankful
having the opportunity to participate in this program.
