previous experiences to little by little start building a cooperative comprehension; that way, you
will not be fostering expertise in a topic, but rather the flexpertice, which is the capability to
transfer information to different contexts and create something of their own. Along the projects
and activities developed, teachers have the responsibility of listening attentively, documenting,

Expression
In the area of expression, the teachers are invited to give space to different types of

table
(e.g. Comprehension Artifact/Create a Play).
