The students of the Kindergarten, Primary and Secondary Education have enjoyed a morning of linguistic immersion, thanks to the Improving company. The kidergarten students watched 5 shows learning about "Captain Jack and the Pirates", the elementary students got closer to American culture through the "American Lifestyle" shows. During the morning, the artists went through the classrooms with different shows lasting 25 minutes, so that the students could enjoy five different shows. All shows are a didactic tool that reinforces the learning of English. We want students to have a real communication experience in English, a living language and a whole cultural world.
