How  is  the  marking  system  in  your  Cmes?    

Schools  in  Spain  have  changed  in  appearance  quite  a  lot:

The  most  important  change:  

   What  we  want  now  is  to  change  the  way  of  studying  and  to  make  the  students  happier  and  more  confortable  when  they  go  to  school.  We  start  to  colour  walls  and  to  build  nicer    schools.    

     It  involves  thinking  about  those  disabled  students  who  can’t  walk  or  see.

As  all  of  you  have  seen..    

•  Today,  we  can  do  COMENIUS  projects  and  exchanges  easly.  For  all  students  this  is  one  of  the  best  things.  Because  thanks  to  that,  we  are  making  friends,  having  good  Ome,  learning  a  

lot  and  wriOng  all  this  adventure  in  our  memories.  Thanks!  That  couldn’t  be  possible  if  

you  weren’t  here.
