Breaking Boundaries:

Cross-Curricular Innovation in Bilingual Education

Dra. Ana Isabel García Abellán | Universidad Católica de Murcia

The seminar focuses on the design and implementation of innovative educational projects in bilingual schools, using the school garden as a platform for learning across different educational levels. Participants will explore the step-by-step process of creating and executing such projects, emphasizing cross-curricular connections and the integration of content, communication, cognition, and culture through CLIL. Additionally, the principles of community-based learning will be highlighted, demonstrating how projects extend beyond the school environment to involve parents, teachers, students, and local communities. A specific example from a bilingual school in the Region of Murcia will be showcased, illustrating how the school garden facilitated the exploration of various subjects while connecting with the agricultural heritage of the region and engaging with nearby communities. This project's participation in an Erasmus+ initiative further underscores its recognition as a model of innovative educational practice on an international scale.
