PAZalobien Exploradores Methodology

Teacher coaching
and in-classroom
support.

Teachers that not only focus on passing on specific knowledge, but rather in developing life skills and preventing risks and violence.

Path: Art

We believe art is at the heart of this educational process of strengthening life skills and giving children the necessary tools to experience a social and collective transformation.

Stages

1

Travel:

Children explore the ten skills needed for life and discover nine different artistic languages: architecture, sculpture, visual arts (including painting, drawing and comics), music, literature, dramatic arts (theatre, dance and mimic), films and photography.

2

Create:

The time has come to put their life skills into practice by developing a collective artistic project.

3

Share:

This is when participants share their learning process with their fellow students, family and friends in an original way and show the outcome of their work.

Why art and play?

It offers a new worldview and other realities.
It encourages us to explore distant places and find new paths towards becoming better people.
It connects us with other people’s feelings and draws us away from indiference.
It connects us to the world through our senses.
It helps us learn by doing and playing.
It encourages us to get to know ourselves and to identify what is important for each of us.
It helps us communicate the state of our body and mind.
