PRESENTACIÓN
Con el inicio de una nueva gestión educativa, reiteramos nuestro compromiso con el Estado Plurinacional
de Bolivia de brindar una educación de excelencia para todas y todos los bolivianos a través de los
diferentes niveles y ámbitos del Sistema Educativo Plurinacional (SEP). Creemos firmemente que la
educación es la herramienta más eficaz para construir una sociedad más justa, equitativa y próspera.
En este contexto, el Ministerio de Educación ofrece a estudiantes, maestras y maestros, una nueva
edición revisada y actualizada de los TEXTOS DE APRENDIZAJE para los niveles de Educación Inicial en
Familia Comunitaria, Educación Primaria Comunitaria Vocacional y Educación Secundaria Comunitaria
Productiva. Estos textos presentan contenidos y actividades organizados secuencialmente, de acuerdo
con los Planes y Programas establecidos para cada nivel educativo. Las actividades propuestas emergen
de las experiencias concretas de docentes que han desarrollado su labor pedagógica en el aula.
Por otro lado, el contenido de estos textos debe considerarse como un elemento dinamizador del
aprendizaje, que siempre puede ampliarse, profundizarse y contextualizarse desde la experiencia y la
realidad de cada contexto cultural, social y educativo. De la misma manera, tanto el contenido como
las actividades propuestas deben entenderse como medios canalizadores del diálogo y la reflexión de
los aprendizajes con el fin de desarrollar y fortalecer la conciencia crítica para saber por qué y para qué
aprendemos. Así también, ambos elementos abordan problemáticas sociales actuales que propician el
fortalecimiento de valores que forjan una personalidad estable, con autoestima y empatía, tan importantes
en estos tiempos.
En particular, el texto de aprendizaje de Comunicación y Lenguajes: Lengua Extranjera de Educación
Secundaria Comunitaria Productiva que promueve una formación integral en las y los estudiantes, a
partir de actividades que desarrollan capacidades comunicativas, intra-interculturales y plurilingües,
para que comprendan otras culturas y se desenvuelvan en una sociedad cada vez más globalizada.
En este sentido, el Ministerio de Educación proporciona este material para que docentes y estudiantes
los utilicen en sus diversas experiencias educativas. Recordemos que el principio del conocimiento
surge de nuestra voluntad de aprender y explorar nuevos aprendizajes para reflexionar sobre ellos en
beneficio de nuestra vida cotidiana.

On November 1 and 2, the tradition of "All Saints" is celebrated

in Bolivia. In the Andean tradition, death does not exist, and is
understood as a transition because life is eternal.
Through offerings with flowers, food, drinks, prayers, music and
above all a lot of faith, it is expected to have a reunion with the
deceased.

The most important celebration of the winter solstice in Bolivia

takes place in the town of “Tiwanaku”, every June 21. It marks the
Aymara New Year or “Machak Mara” and is also the beginning of
a new agricultural year. This Andean ritual is celebrated in more
than 200 locations in Bolivia, including “Inkallaqta”, “Inka Raqay”,
“Samaypata” and “Uyuni”. For the Aymara who inhabit the highland
region of Bolivia known as the Altiplano, this is their holiest day. It is
also a national holiday in Bolivia.

The Alasita’s fair is characterized by miniature objects that are made

and manufactured by artisans from the city of La Paz, mainly that,
every year, respond to the needs and demands of the population
to produce new "desires", traditionally miniature bills and food
“Canastones” so that they are not missing during this time.
