Students from Proficiency 1 (C1.1) and Elementary 3 (B1.3) at the CNL of Badalona and Sant Adrià have participated in a conversation activity inspired by the 'Volunteering for Language' (VxL) program. The main objective was to promote spoken Catalan practice and encourage interaction among students of different levels.
Following the VxL dynamic, Proficiency 1 students took on the role of volunteers, while Elementary 3 students acted as learners. Organized in pairs or small groups, they discussed topics of common interest, sharing opinions, experiences, and viewpoints. This format allowed them to practice oral expression outside the classroom and meet new peers from the center.
These initiatives provide a comfortable and familiar space for speaking Catalan. Conversations in a relaxed atmosphere help students overcome shyness, gain confidence, and express themselves more freely. The experiences of higher-level students serve as an example for elementary-level learners in their language acquisition journey.
Beyond linguistic practice, the activity facilitated the creation of bonds between students, the sharing of experiences, and the meeting of people from diverse backgrounds.
