Latest Circulars
The Middle Years Program (MYP) serves as a framework for the development of MINEDUC’s curriculum in 6th, 7th and 8th grade. Teaching takes place through concepts and global context. Investigation, interdisciplinary work and constant reflection lead students to develop in-depth and interconnected learning processes and encourage significant metacognitive processes. The evaluation through pre-established criteria that are known by both the students and the parents in advance gives the students clear and attainable learning objectives.
PROGRAMSLearning through disciplines
MYP students begin to work in individual subjects, connected through interdisciplinary units to act as a bridge between the transdisciplinarity of PEP and the merely disciplinary work of the Diploma Program. This is how students are faced to eight subjects during 6th, 7th and 8th grade, each one corresponding to the MYP subject groups:
- Language and Communication (Language and Literature)
- English (Language Acquisition)
- History, Geography and Social Sciences (Individual and Societies)
- Mathematics (Mathematics)
- Natural Sciences (Sciences)
- Art: Visual Art, Drama or Music (Arts)
- Physical Education and Sports (Physical and Health Education)
- Technology (Design)
Approaches to Learning (ATL)
The Approaches to Learning (ATL) program is an integral part of the MYP that permits 8th grade students to develop the abilities required for “learning to learn”. By working with general study strategies the students are prepared to face the greater demands they will have in Secondary Educationand in the Diploma Program.
Personal and Social Development (PSD)
The Personal and Social Development Program is created by the Guidance Department and implemented by homeroom teachers in each course. Thematic fields in 9th and 10th grade are life project, positive co-living, affective relationships and community service.
Religion
Middle School students must have two hours of religion per week and may choose between:
- Catholic Religion
- Methodist Religion
- Jewish Religion
- Grow and Share
Community and Service
Middle School students take part in different community service activities. Each class takes active part in a project, executing actions throughout the year. 8th grade students also take part in special service activities during a course trip, for example: in 2014 they taught English in rural schools near Curicó during one week.This content is visible only to registered users.
