Welcome

The purpose of this blog is to become a tool in the IB Programme activity CAS.


Here I will post my CAS activities as well as their development during the course of time.


I hope that this blog will help people understand what CAS is and what kind of activities I will be doing, and help other students and volunteers, as well.

Segurança e apoio nos recreios (2)

Unlike most projects that normally end during a short or medium period of time, this project will continue next year. This CAS activity is divided into 3 phases:

  1. which consisted in the observation of recesses 3 times a week for 30 minutes during 1 week in which I recorded the more regular activities that the kids did; 
  2. new observation  also 3 times a week for 30 minutes each day but this time with a frequency table to record the activities that the kids prefer;
  3. the final step is intervention on the field, after a meeting with our CAS coordinator, this intervention could have been in the form of a soccer championship in Easter break, this lasted for about 2 weeks
 Currently I am waiting for a new meeting with CAS coordinator to decide what to do next.

Segurança e apoio nos recreios

This project consists in helping school staff manage the younger students of the school.

the reason I choose this project is because I think that safety is a common to all members of the educational community (teachers, students, parents, etc); also because i have witnessed some behaviors like violence and indiscipline in the younger students, that i think shouldn't have, and I with this project I hope to change that and also to help the kids by making school more fun by building basketball tables in an unused field for example.
