ECHO day. Reading and writing with pleasure + ECO image portfolio

The Dia ECO Program takes advantage of the link between oral and written language, between listening and comprehension, in order to develop skills that enrich the language and culture of the student. Its main objectives are:

• Integrate visual and literary art as means for the construction of knowledge and personal growth.
• Deepen the development of skills in four specific areas: cognitive, affective, communicative and social.
• Foster a love of reading and reading comprehension in a meaningful learning environment.
• Motivate writing in an environment of free expression of ideas, feelings and experiences.
