Personal and The class is composed of 12 students (8 girls and 3 boys). Migrant
social-cultural background: there are two students who come from extra UE countries.
preconditions Generally, they speak Italian, but at home, they use their mother tongue.
of all people Special Educational Needs: there are three students with special educational
involved needs. Two of them are DSA and one has a 104 certification and needs to be
supported during the lessons. As a group work, it is a little bit lazy, but with a
vivacious intelligence, creative, that always needs to be motivated and guided
to perform at their best in the various activities, especially in this difficult year
where the pandemic situation made them almost inactive and discouraged.
Moreover, lots of these students need to develop their self-esteem. They know
how to work in a group because in this subject (Design in Visual Art/Painting)
they usually work for a common aim: it could be a mural, a mosaic, an acrylic
painting, sometimes required by an association or a private company. When
they work in a team they are sociable, involved and curious. As a class, they
embrace a lot of new art projects and are always driven to improve their
competence. In contrast, when they work individually, some of them don't
make their homework and are very absent-minded. They never have been
studying in CLIL in High School, because in our Institut we start CLIL in the
third year. So, this is the first year for every subject. The average CEFR level
in English is an A2/B1. Anybody is very shy but they need to practice
conversation and speaking. They are quite confident with the listening skill.

Description of This module is divided into three units and, especially for the U3, there are
teaching and links to other curricular subjects such as Art Research Laboratory, IRC,
learning Science, Chemistry, and English. The first module, "The creative process" (6
strategies hours), is an introduction to all the projects students will face in this subject
(Graphic and Painting Discipline). The second unit, "Crazy Shoes" (10 hours),
is a practical activity to verify if students understood the main steps of the
creative process (in particular, the passages copy-transform-combine). The
third unit, "Strike like Banksy" (3 hours for a field trip + 31 hours in class) is
the main practical project and is about the Street Art Movement and the
actual issue of climate change. To motivate students by speaking English with
enthusiasm the breakout of the lessons will be different and there will balance
between theory and practice (even if the practice is the core of this subject).
For that reason, the teacher tries to integrate language and content talking in
English during the practical activities using ICT tools, such as PowerPoint
presentations, Mentimemeter, TeacherMade, EdPuzzle, Jigsaw Puzzle. The
teacher will constantly support students during the practice work and invite
them to take notes next to their sketches while drawing and constantly
communicate among them giving suggestions, advice, asking for
clarifications. There will be activated different strategies to make the lessons
more pleasant. The lessons will predominantly follow the “activate prior
knowledge/guide understanding/review” format and will privilege
collaborative and cooperative learning with the purpose to develop
communicative skills, without worrying too much about grammar mistakes.
The assessment will be focused on communicative skills, cognitive skills,
cooperation, and, last but not least, the attitude towards the project.
