In
this second term we have done some activities that let our students
practise their oral skills, improve their writing and reading and
enjoy their learning at its most ;)

On
the 12th
of
February we
went to the old town to participate in an activiy called 'Cáceres,
an impressionist city'
It
was an activity together with other High Schools and schools from
Cáceres to commemorate the European artistic, literary and
scientific panorama of the 19th century.
That
day, our students showed the tales they had been written in class.
They were very special versions of the popular tale ‘Little
Red Riding Hood’ set in the city of Cáceres. The students desinged and draw amazing pictures to illustrate their tales. Here we can see some of them.
On
the 20th March we
prepared some poems to celebrate ‘The
Poetry Day’ together
with the other groups from our High School on the 21st March.
The
students selected some classical and contemporary British, Irish
and American poets and wrote down some of their rhymes in
coloured papers. The poems were all hang together in the High School gallery
and the result was an amazing poetry wall.

On
Thursday 21st March,
we
had a very special visit. A
group of students
from Stockholm together
with Spanish students
from their host school, IES Norba Caesarina de Cáceres, came to our
class to present to our class part of their Erasmus+
project.
The
activity had to do with bullying and how teenagers can fight against
it in everday situations, both at school and at home.
We worked in
groups and we talked about situations, solutions, feelings....We watched a video the students had desgined for the
project, and we listened to an english song a Swedish student had
created for this session.
It
was a fantastic experience and we had the opportunity to think about universal teenage
problems beyond nationality, language or culture.
