Wednesday 22nd, student strikes?
Today there was an oral exam for three groups of 4th ESO grade: 4 A, 4 C and 4 D. Some students asked me yesterday about postponing this test as they were going on strike. Unfortunately for them, the school has not accepted this strike and classes will go on as normal. This means that all the students who are not here and have not justified their absence will have a ‘0’ in this test. As stated in the school’s regulations, tests will be postponed only when the strike has been officially announced by the school, something which does not apply here.
XTEC: what do students have to do to go on strike? (Catalan text)
Avui hi havia examen oral per tres grups de 4t d’ ESO: 4t A, 4t C i 4t D. Alguns alumnes van demanar-me ahir que postposés aquesta prova ja que volien fer vaga. Malauradament per ells, l’ escola no ha acceptat la proposta de vaga i les classes procediran de manera normal. Això implica que tots els alumnes que no hagin vingut a classe i no justifiquin l’ absència tindran un ‘0’ en aquest examen. Tal i com diu la normativa, els exàmens s’ han de postoposar només quan la vaga ha estat anunciada oficialment, cosa que no es compleix en el nostre cas.
XTEC: què han de fer els alumnes per organitzar una jornada de vaga?
The education system in Catalonia
Today’s session is dedicated to the study of the Catalan education system. After a short overview, we will have some thought about different job families.
Today is also the deadline for handing the teacher your edu365 registration form.
Objective: Practise your dialogues!
We’re doing speaking and listening activities this week. If you really want to prepare your dialogue (activity 1 speaking, p. 25), I strongly suggest you visit your No Problem website, click on Unit 2 and try the listening exercise. There are two versions, one is the complete text and the other is onlyMike’s (you have to play Sanjay’s part).
And next day… stand up and speak!!
Unit 2: How many exercises?
35, and the days of the exams are in the calendar section.
4th ESO B, D : 6th November
4th ESO C, A : 7th November
Session 16: Comic language and conventions
Today we begin a new part of the course. We will learn what the parts of a comic, what their names are and what they are used for.
Link to Wikipedia’s comic language article.
Session 15: Room objects (2), perspective
In this session we are going to manipulate room objects and draw them from different points of view. We will discuss the visual effects they may convey.
Session 14: The Room
Draw your character in a room. For this activity you need to bring 10 pictures of room objects.
Teacher! I want to learn the present perfect!
Today you have another teacher, his name is Dave, and he will teach you the present perfect in English. Enjoy!
A room with a character
After the three sessions dedicated to the study of movement, we have turned radically to a more relaxed atmosphere: your room. We have collected pictures of room objects, we have decomposed into the three basic forms (sphere, box and cylinder) and we have finally drawn a room, with objects and our personally created character.
Today’s best student was … Raul Álvarez. He was the first student to finish and his simple, but effective drawing was stounding. Good for you!
