More and more, the future is related to the knowledge of natural sciences and technology. At Móbile, the study of complex concepts present in Chemistry, Physics and Biology allow the students to understand the world and do predictions, this happens during practice, “making science”.

The greater number of classes in the full-time period allows the children and teenagers to use their creative potential to solve concrete problems, applying concepts and building gadgets.

The critical thinking and the awakening of a curious attitude towards the world are central axes in our proposal. The experiences we promote motivate the students to investigate the way how the different human groups were appropriating Spaces in different ways throughout history in addition to inserting themselves in the complexities of social processes, problematizing their contradictory aspects.

In everyday school life we promote situations that stimulate the development of fundamental skills for the 21st century citizen like self-management, open-mindedness, amiability, resilience and engaging with others. These individual skills are essential for the children and teenagers to relate to themselves and each other, make decisions, deal with frustrations and establish short-term and long-term objectives. We are sure that all of the experiences we promote in many learning contexts are important so our students can develop assertiveness, persistence, empathy, curiosity and self-confidence and successfully and happily accomplish their projects.

Graphic language is universal and used to develop abilities that relate to analysis, comparing, observation and finding of geometrical facts. Here at Móbile, our students are encouraged, beyond learning to build paper models, to use the software Geogebra – a Dynamic Geometry tool that facilitates the accomplishment of exercises that allow the observation of patterns and regularities.

Móbile School understands Physical Education at school as a language, an area of knowledge that broadens the discussion and experience of human movement, considering the object of teaching and learning the body culture. Through body practice experiences (sports, urban and nature adventure practices, fighting, gymnastics, dances and games), considered cultural-historic heritage, the students learn, through interacting with each other, about the transformations and resignification of each cultural manifestation. This expansion of repertoire potencializes the body language of our students, enabling the communication with different groups and social contexts, and also granting autonomy in a future choice of regular practice that makes sense to them, given the range of experiences throughout school years.

From the 4th grade our students start to study the Spanish language and get to know the culture from the Spanish speaking countries. Our model of teaching creates the necessary conditions for the students in this journey of the bilingual program to become proficient in three languages: Portuguese, English and Spanish. So, until the end of Middle School, they can get the FCE (First Certificate in English) and CAE (Certificate of Advanced English) certificates from Cambridge University and DELE (Diploma de Español como Lengua Extranjera) certificate from Cervantes Institute. These certifications are permanent and open doors so that our future citizens can become global and ready to go into a world without borders.

Since they are small children, our students are exposed and encouraged to use English daily, through a way of instruction for the learning of knowledge areas that were strategically selected – like Science, Computational Thinking and Technology, Physical Education and Visual Arts.

The children and teenagers develop their communication abilities of the academic and interpersonal language and expand their linguistic repertoire, including different areas of knowledge. So, we shape bilingual and multicultural students, global citizens, to whom the world won’t have any borders.

Móbile’s Full-time curriculum promotes big innovation by making the integration of two subjects that are milestones for the development of a person for the 21st century – Natural Science and Technology and Computational Thinking. Scientific investigation, supported by computational thinking in the process of problem resolution related to real and relevant themes for global development, offer our students the opportunity to understand, analyze, compare and automate the knowledge to solve problems efficiently with the use of technology.

With the increase of the time spent at school, in the full-time program it’s possible for students to have access to our exclusive and innovative curriculum of Digital Literacy and Computational Thinking. In it, apart from our students using the computer as communication and research tools, they have the opportunity to develop computational thinking and learn how to use the computational devices as allies in the process of problem resolutions and the deepening of their creativity.

The language is the main tool through which individuals socialize and express their thoughts and emotions. It Is the element that structures the thoughts and makes it possible to access all the knowledge built. It’s through the language that the individual appropriates and produces the culture, leaving their mark in the world.

Given the importance of art to the full development of an individual, the curriculum of the Bilingual program from Full-time Period at Móbile expands the access of our students to different artistic languages contemplating in their development the visual, musical, body and performing arts. This way, we empower, amplifying our students’ capacity of sensibly reading the world and expressing themselves creatively and aesthetically.

These artistic languages are worked through three areas:

Artes Visuais

• The teaching of the visual language articulates the artistic experiences as a social practice. The creation process is as relevant as its eventual products and, in this trajectory, our students try and develop personal poetics. Understanding themselves as an agent, inserted and involved in a process, the students notice themselves as creative, critical and ethical.

Música e Arte do Movimento (MAM)

• Music and Movement are two essential elements to life and have taken on, with time, different roles in the many cultures of our planet. In Brazilian culture in particular, the sound and movement are part of the expression of people in their everyday life and are necessary for their integral formation. These premises are structural in the elaboration of the class proposals and walk hand-in-hand in the manifestations of our popular culture. They are the legitimate expression of what is understood from Brazilian culture.

Artes Cênicas

• We understand performing arts as an artistic language privileged for the development of singularity, the sense of belonging, creativity, healthy confrontation with the other, of teamwork. Because of it, in the two final years of Primary School we promote movie and play creations in English that involve all students from the class.

Speaking, Reading and writing proficiently are essencial skills in life. It’s through oral and written texts that we are present in different social contexts and mark our participation in the world. Through Primary School, the reading and production of different discursive genres are the foundation for the linguistic development.

We also invest in the literary literacy of our students through a selection of a group of meaningful works adequate to each age range.

Math is an important area of knowledge that contributes in an effective way to the understanding of reality. At Móbile, this language has three big roles: formative, related to the thinking structure; functional, that uses learned resources to solve everyday problems; and the instrumental, used for the construction of areas of knowledge like Physics, Biology and Geography.

Aiming to develop wide and transversal abilities, always mediated by contemporary and everyday school life themes, here at Móbile the subject Educational Orientation is directly related to the shaping of ethical human beings, diverse and capable of reading the world in its multiple languages. Through the years, according to our students' stages of development, we explore topics like: digital citizenship; health and well-being; political and ethical literacy; academic learning management; social learning management.
