Third Cycle

Third Cycle in Lisbon

Astoria International School, the best private school in Lisbon, offers in the 6th grade of the third cycle the opportunity to learn a new language—French. This training is complemented by the certification of the corresponding language skills.

Students also gain internationally recognized qualifications by learning English according to the Cambridge Lower Secondary curriculum.

Students in the second and third cycles benefit from programs focused on organization and study methods, creative writing, and activities in the areas of handwriting and spelling.

CURRICULAR INTERDISCIPLINARITY

The teaching at Astoria International School in the third cycle benefits from interdisciplinarity among the various curricular areas, which is fundamental for success in different learnings. This is why it is the best private school in Lisbon!

TEACHING WITH PSYCHO-PEDAGOGICAL SUPPORT

In the third cycle, concepts and fundamental values for the socio-pedagogical development of AIS students are addressed, such as autonomy, critical thinking, and the ability to reflect on and question the world. This is done through group work and reflections, individual and collective projects, and other activities that align with our students’ interests.

BILINGUAL EDUCATION - CAMBRIDGE LOWER SECONDARY

AIS education prioritizes communication and develops the five competencies that form the basis of a language: Reading, Writing, Use of English, Listening, and Speaking.

The strategies used to develop these five areas are tailored to the age group and characteristics of each class, making AIS the best private school in Lisbon.

The project and citizenship area plays a fundamental role in building globally aware and interculturally conscious citizens. Essential projects are developed to address these themes.

SUPPLEMENTARY PROGRAMS in the Second Cycle

Our students in the third cycle benefit from direct intervention from the Psychology and Guidance Office, which, in coordination with teachers and coordinators, supports students through programs focused on organization and study methods, creative writing, and handwriting and spelling.

These supplementary programs consist of classes on study methods and personal organization, support in Portuguese and Mathematics, study time planning activities, reading and writing, problem-solving, note-taking, and preparation for assessment sheets.
