TO SUM UP UNIT 2
25th November: International Day against Gender Violence
During all this week, our students will participate in some activities, organized by the Coeducation Department , which focus on one of the most terrible violations against human rights : violence against women. It is a worldwide problem which we must fight to eliminate as soon as possible and to become aware of this cruel situation, we have prepared for our students in the classes of English some files with information and stories which exemplify this matter. We will also watch some videos made by the United Nations which will also motivate students to talk and discuss about this subject, trying to find possible solutions.
Here , you can have a look at those files we are going to work with and some of the videos we are going to watch. We will finish these activities listening to a song by Sara Bareilles which tells us the story of a girl in this situation.
SOUND EXPERIMENTS IV
Finally, they checked what happened when they hit a tambourine next to a ping pong ball.
SOUND EXPERIMENTS III
In this case, students were checking how string phones worked.
SOUND EXPERIMENTS II
If you produce a sound next to the bowl, the pieces of paper will jump because of the vibration.
SOUND EXPERIMENTS I
Students of 1º ESO C did different experiments demonstrating that sound is a vibration. In this picture, we can see string phones and mouth organs. These ones are made with sticks and elastic bands that vibrate when you blow.
Recent activities: Halloween and “Only human”
Julia Raash
As you all know, we celebrated Halloween in our secondary school last 30th November. We had a Ghost Walk where our 1 ESO students listened to Lupita’s story in “The corpse bride”, then they participated in a cultural quiz about the origin and customs in Halloween and finally we had a spooky breakfast.
We also went to the theatre to see “Only human” a comedy which criticizes the use and abuse of technology in our world. They had fun watching the actors and some of the students who also performed in that hilarious play.
