INTRODUCTION
Ge#era' (ri# i('e) The phase of Primary Edu a!i"# constitutes a fundamental period in the formation of the person. Boys and girls reach the maximum intellectual and social development in this phase, which will determine not only their future learning but many other vital elements. Furthermore, as it is situated within the broadest educational framework, it is necessary to relate its content both to the preceding phase as well as that of the subsequent phase, allowing a stable line of development and continuity. To these factors two more are added firstly, the fact that educational processes have to be in accordance with the guidelines emanating out of existing legislation, which at all times is responsible for guaranteeing that the school offers an adequate response to the demands of society! and secondly, the need to adapt educational pro"ects and curriculum to the educational institution9 #resent$day society is characterised by its great complexity and dynamism, features that determine its development. The school of the 2%st century, in which the introduction of new curricular elements such as basic competences, cannot remain at the margin of this reality, but, on the contrary, has to take on the challenge of offering a suitable response to citi&ens, creating an education that guarantees its future.

The acquiring of all these abilities makes learning easier for the student and allows for the development of his*her competences. Social and Natural Sciences (Pr"*e ! Look and Think) Social and Natural Sciences +#ro"ect Look and Think, is a collection of materials for learning in the area of Knowledge of the natural, social and cultural environment that faithfully respects the curriculum for the phase, that presents information in a clear and straightforward way and that offers students the tools necessary for them to be able to comprehend and interpret it in this first cycle of #rimary (ducation. 'n a process of establishing a progressive and permanent bilingual education +in this case, in (nglish,, in which the student will be taught for at least four grades, this pro"ect creates a form of learning based on an equilibrium established between learning the contents of an area and being immersed in a different language from their own. The results are enormously motivating because the materials have been designed specifically to fulfil this ob"ective, and because they employ an active and participatory methodology in which the student can appreciate the usefulness of what is being learned in an immediate and continuous manner. For that reason, the teaching methodology applied in Social and Natural Sciences helps to favour a maturing development process in the students. 4any activities and tasks presented make it easier for students to establish links between prior and new knowledge, achieving a significant amount of learning, suitable to their needs and interests, and that show the functionality and usefulness of this new learning. 4otivation is thus achieved in a natural way, yet through specific materials carefully developed to stimulate motivation 't presents activities in which students have to participate actively, which then favours the capacity to learn on their own. 't takes into account their different learning rhythms and styles, and levels of maturing developmental process. 't promotes teamwork, taking into account the skills that enter into play in the learning process and is directed to achieving its goals. 5ikewise, it pays attention to the education of values the specific sections that address this issue are directed at acquiring positive attitudes about issues related to the area and developing approaches to dialogue, conflict resolution, as well as using skills, manners and social conventions necessary to help achieve good communication and the wellbeing of the group.

Social and Natural Sciences. Third grade (Primary Edu a!i"#) 'n consequence, a primary ob"ective of Social and Natural Sciences is the immersion into the (nglish language. For this purpose, and without detriment to achieving the specific ob"ectives of the area of Knowledge of the natural, social and cultural environment, the progressive reconciliation between using this different language from their own and the development of students- communicative skills is fully considered. This area encompasses different spheres of knowledge, respecting the logic of each one of them, paying attention to their specific processes of learning and orientating these different forms of knowledge towards a shared aim to contribute to better understanding and explanation of the collective elements and dimensions that constitute the human environment. 7evertheless, this does not refer only to the variety of components that make up the stage of human existence, but also the interaction of human beings with this set of phenomena. The environment is understood then to be the group of elements, events, factors and different processes that take place among peoples- social milieu and where, in turn, their lives and activities acquire meaning. Social and Natural Sciences attempts to provide diverse information about the world, making the necessary tools accessible to boys and girls to be capable of understanding them and interpreting them. 't presents, therefore, a clear conceptual weight, yet the concepts always work in association with the procedures that are required for them to be learned and the attitudes derived from them. The procedures in the learning process for this area are linked to observing, searching, collecting and organising information, to elaborating and communicating said information, and reflecting on the learning process as a base of scientific method. For its part, attitudes are structured around personal identity, socialisation and coexistence, health and the environment! in short, an active methodology that puts emphasis on learning competences.

METHODOLOGICAL PRINCIPLES
Ge#era' (ri# i('e) The teaching methodology applied in Social and Natural Sciences and resulting from what has been stated above, presents the following characteristics Pre)e#!) )ig#i-i a#! 'ear#i#g9 'n order for learning to contribute to pupil development, it is essential to establish links between prior and new learning. This is done by way of activities and tasks with clear ob"ectives, adapted to pupil needs and interests, assuring that new learning is both functional and useful. Social and Natural Sciences integrates different aspects of pupil experiences and learning, both formal +from other sub"ects or topics, and informal. This allows pupils to effectively use this learning in different situations and contexts as necessary. I! i) a !i0e a#d (ar!i i(a!i0e9 2ctivities are presented in a way that requires active pupil participation, which in turn favours autonomous learning capacity. 2s part of the dynamic, identifying questions or problems and drawing conclusions based on tests are included. The aim is to facilitate comprehension and decision making about the physical world and about changes that human activity produce on the environment, health and quality of life of people. To achieve this, the processes and attitudes of systematic analysis and scientific inquiry are put into practice $ 'dentify and present relevant problems. $ 9onduct direct and indirect observations. $ Formulate questions. $ 5ocate, obtain, analyse and present information. $ #resent and contrast tentative solutions or hypotheses. $ 4ake predictions and inferences with different levels of complexity. $ 'dentify necessary available knowledge to respond to scientific questions, and to be able to reach, interpret, evaluate and communicate conclusions in diverse contexts. I! i) "mmu#i a!i0e9 2 primary ob"ective of Social and Natural Sciences is immersion in the (nglish language. To achieve this goal, without sacrificing achievement of the actual content ob"ectives, progressive exposure to a different language, and development of the pupils- communicative skills, is proposed. 2t the same time, information is presented in different codes, formats and languages, therefore requiring different procedures for its comprehension and communication. I! i) m"!i0a!i#g9 4otivation is achieved naturally by showing the pupil immediate usefulness of learning, but it is also addressed in a specific manner since there are materials for this purpose. A!!e#!i"# !" di0er)i!y9 :ifferent paces and styles of learning, as well as levels of developmental maturity, are taken into account. For this purpose, Social and Natural Sciences presents diverse materials that the teacher can apply in a manner that best suits the pupils.

Addre))e) e!hi ) edu a!i"#9 Social and Natural Sciences presents sections in which specific cross$curricular themes are developed. - (nvironmental education. #upils will learn about environmental problems which damage life on our planet at an alarming rate, and they will present individual and collective solutions to improve our environment. - (ducation for peace. /chool is an ideal setting for learning attitudes of coexistence, solidarity, respect for diversity and tolerance. - (ducation for the consumer. 't is important that pupils learn to use tools of analysis aimed at avoiding excessive consumption. - <oad safety education. 2dequate behaviour around public roadways is extremely important, especially for pupils who live in large cities. - (ducation for equal gender opportunity. 'n our current society it is still necessary to focus on this principle of equality. - =ealth education. >ithout a doubt, good habits of physical, mental and social hygiene will influence improved quality of life. - /ex education. This is not only a biological issue, but also an important topic of communication between people. - 4oral and civic education. :evelopment of this aspect will generate behaviours consistent with democratic, solidarity and participative values in diverse areas of daily life.

'n general, the focus is on the development of attitudes toward dialog, conflict resolution, and the use of skills and social conventions to facilitate good communication and group well$being. The classroom becomes an ideal setting for reflecting on conflict, assuming responsibility with respect to the group, and developing rules of coexistence that all must respect in real situations that arise daily in the social environment in which we live.

2 plentiful and natural exposure to the language is necessary in order to arrive at a solid level of competence in the second language. Social and Natural Sciences considers the learning of the Knowledge of the natural, social and cultural environment area in the (nglish language in these grades of #rimary (ducation as being able to achieve this desired equilibrium now that the student can quickly appreciate the usefulness of his*her linguistic knowledge, given that the language is used in real situations of greater interest and with less effort, which allows for students to become more involved. 2t the same time, elimination of frustration of pupils with limited linguistic competence in the second language is guaranteed 'nteresting introductory activities with vocabulary and language structures which will appear in the lesson are presented so that pupils are prepared to comprehend the content and the proposed activities. Texts and activities have been carefully prepared to assure pupil comprehension by using the same simple structures repeatedly. /ince the primary focus is to achieve the ob"ectives laid out for the sub"ect of Social and Natural Sciences, the proposed activities do not require special linguistic competence. @isual support +flashcards, murals, picture storyboards, illustrations and photographs, mime games, is used extensively to transmit the concept, and through related activities children associate language and meaning.

These contents are established around spheres of coexistence based on the Aniversal :eclaration of =uman <ights and the /panish 9onstitution, which form the frame of reference for common values in our cultural milieu. 'n order that during the learning process students internali&e in a responsible and autonomous manner a respect for the norms of coexistence and mutual respect, an educational development is proposed that includes, as well as the curricular contents, those contents that have a direct bearing on the processes of socialisation or integration in a democratic society. 'n this sense, the materials take into consideration the following areas of contents for a values$based education To achieve (ea e-u' "e@i)!e# e, the methodology fosters a 'ear#i#g e#0ir"#me#! in the classroom in which relationships between one-s peers as well as with adults are made possible, based on mutual respect and personal responsibility to be able to put into practice conduct that contributes to achieving this end. /uch is the educational foundation for future free and responsible citi&ens in a democratic and "ust society. /olidarity and peaceful coexistence among people are values that are encompassed in this sphere.

A!!e#!i"# !" di0er)i!y 'n the present educational context, attention to diversity means a personalised development of the education that each student needs. The reality of present$day society in which different languages and cultures coexist, insists on the necessity to give students an education that guarantees their comprehensive training for the development of their personality, establishing opportune compensatory means that each one of the students requires in relation to their individual educational needs, associated with their personal capacities or other types of social, cultural, ethnic, linguistic or health needs, or because of having a significant curricular gap. To educate today means to pay attention to students in a personal, individual, differentiated way. This is to say that satisfying their particular requirements, giving an opportune response to their special needs and characteristics, and adopting, when necessary, a degree of attention to diversity that guarantee that all students receive specific support measures during their basic compulsory education. This #ro"ect has been designed and prepared with the intention of responding to some of the needs that can arise in the classroom and of allowing the teacher to adapt the students- work in a manner that he*she considers most suitable. 't is useful to analyse three significant elements The role of the teacher, responsible for educational organisation and planning, who has to assure that these respond to the criteria of respect and compensation so as to reach acceptable results for everybody. /tudents- diversity, which requires careful examination of differences before attempting any classification. The educational process itself, which determines a specific implementation that therefore determines the corresponding performance. 'n this #ro"ect, the treatment of attention to diversity emanates out of the premise that it is the educational institution, and particularly the teacher, who is the one in charge of the necessary ad"ustments to be made to the educational programme 9 =e*she is the key figure in the development of remedial education, because he*she knows the students best, knows their deficiencies, detects their needs and can determine the process that should be followed with each of them. For this reason, this #ro"ect allows the necessary flexibility for the educational intervention of the teaching staff to accommodate it to the reality of the classroom and to each one of the students, and offers organised resources to deliver effectively an ad"ustment of the development of the contents and the adaptation of the students to a different pace. <egarding students, one has to take into account the diversity that the classroom offers. This ample range of possibilities has to be considered from two fundamental perspectives diversity can be personal, familial, cultural, socioeconomic, ethnic or religious, and the school-s course of action should guarantee the right of all the students to be educated.

$ASIC COMPETENCES
'n recent years, several (A countries, including /pain, have worked together with the goal of identifying basic and key learning principles. The (A defines the term basic or ke co!"etence as Ea combination of skills, knowledge and attitudes which are adequate to the context. Basic competences are those which everyone needs for personal performance and development, as well as for active citi&enship, social inclusion and employment.F The /panish curriculum, adapted to the specific circumstances and characteristics of our educational system, identifies and includes eight basic competences %. 9ompetence in linguistic communication. 2. 4athematical competence. 3. 9ompetence in knowledge and interaction with the physical world. 6. #rocessing information and digital competence. 8. /ocial competence and citi&enship. ;. 9ultural and artistic competence. ?. 9ompetence in learning how to learn. B. 9ompetence in autonomy and personal initiative. The aim of incorporating these competences into the educational curriculum is to focus learning. 2s a result, students integrate such learning, relate different types of contents, use learning effectively when necessary, and apply it in different situations and contexts. The basic competences are not considered minimum common learning. 'n fact, there are wider learning proposals which should focus instruction on identifying essential contents and assessment criteria. The basic competences do not replace the elements presently included in the curriculum area or sub"ect ob"ectives, contents and assessment criteria. =owever, they complement these elements by proposing an integrative focus oriented toward the application of acquired learning. Based on this ob"ective, it can be inferred that the competences are not mastered through a unique curriculum area or sub"ect. (ach of the areas contributes to the development of different competences and, in turn, each of the basic competences is achieved as a result of working in several areas and sub"ects. The selection of different types of contents )concepts, procedures and attitudes) should ensure the presence of the contents directly related to the acquisition of the basic competences, or with certain aspects of such competences, but should not be limited to them. 2t the same time, the selection should include other contents that allow achieving each and every one of the area or sub"ect ob"ectives. The assessment criteria should serve as the main reference to identify the developmental level of the abilities included in the area or sub"ect matter, as well as the acquisition level of the basic competences.

E5ALUATION
The evaluation is an instrument that serves the process of teaching$learning and forms part of the classroom-s daily activity, yet with its own particular identity. 'ts end purpose is to guide the regulation of teaching processes in relation to their adaptation to students- learning processes. 9ontinuous evaluation considers the progress of students within the set of different areas that are under the teachers- own competency, in accordance with developed ob"ectives and contents and in light of the evaluation criteria established in the curricular programme. These evaluation criteria propose for each content area a series of guidelines that teachers need to adapt to, in each one of the three cycles that make up #rimary (ducation, in order to decide upon students- promotion. There exist, as well, other elements throughout the teaching process that are helpful to have present because of their prominent importance in the final results. Firstly, analyse and specify the characteristics of the context in which the teaching processes takes place. This evaluation allows one to 2ssess students- attributes and detect their different weaknesses +personal, social and familiar,. 9heck into the characteristics of the family and socioeducational environment that can help determine, in some ways, the content of the curricular programme. @erify the teaching$learning processes with the purpose of evaluating their adaptation to the circumstances discovered in the assessment. /econdly, the evaluation of basic competences has a process$like character, providing the teacher a valuable resource with which to determine the competence framework that is developed in the educational units +competences, evaluation criteria and activities linked to these two curricular elements.,. The evaluation allows one to detect weaknesses and needs, and guides the precise teaching, reinforcement and extension processes in each case. The measures taken for helping and giving attention to diversity should be the consequence of adequate student evaluation which then determines their specific needs. The programme-s evaluation criteria are a first step towards designing the appropriate response in each case! more detail is offered through the student-s competence analysis. 7evertheless, in the same way that satisfying concrete needs holds great importance, it-s advisable as well not to uproot the evaluation of the standard teaching process and provide this with a set of evaluation resources that can be used as a reference. 'n this sense, a number of specific proposals are integrated within the educational materials. 2t the end of the cycle, the tutor, taking into consideration the reports from the rest of the group-s teachers, will decide on students promotions to the next cycle. The e0a'ua!i"# "- !he edu a!i"#a' (r" e)) Together with students- learning evaluation, which has a continuous, global nature, and while paying attention to the areas that make up the curriculum, teachers have to evaluate, as well, teaching processes and their own teaching practice in relation with achieving the educational ob"ectives of the curriculum.
