Portugal eTwinning

Students from 2nd ESO 3 are participating in an eTwinning project in which they are going to exchange emails with students from Lisbon, Portugal.

Today, in groups, they have been working on one of their first projects: a biography of the groups including pictures, using the techinques they learnt with Eva in the subject "Imagen y Comunicación"

In the next few days we will see the results:

Bone: out from Boneville

This is one of the possible options for 4th ESO 1 and 2.

Remember that you have to choose between Sherlock Holmes and Bone.

I am going to introduce you to the character and to the comic book in case you are not sure what it is about:


Out From Boneville is the first book of the Bone series. It was first published by Cartoon Books on May 29,1995 in black and white. On February 1, 2005 Scholastic published it in color (by Steve Hamaker).
After being run out of Boneville, the three Bone cousins - Fone Bone, Phoney Bone and Smiley Bone - are separated and lost in a vast, uncharted desert. One by one, they find their way into a deep forested valley filled with wonderful and terrifying, creatures. Eventually, the cousins are reunited at a farmstead run by tough Gran'ma Ben and her spirited granddaughter, Thorn. But little do the Bones know, there are dark forces conspiring against them and their adventures are only just beginning!

Visita al Thyssen

Hoy, los alumnos de 1ºA de Bachillerato han tenido la oportunidad de ir al Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza a disfrutar de una de las visitas organizadas por EducaThyssen.

El itinerario que han realizado se llama "Madrid, un libro abierto". Según la web del museo, propone a los alumnos y sus profesores  un viaje de descubrimiento al arte del S.XX. A través de las Vanguardias Históricas de principios de siglo y de la génesis de esos movimientos pictóricos en otros de la segunda mitad del siglo anterior como el impresionismo y el postimpresionismo. Figuras como  Monet, Van Gogh, Picasso,  Pollock o Lichtestein son sólo algunos de la nómina de grandes artistas que construyen la historia visual de ese siglo y medio que atraviesa el recorrido.

Prestando atención a las explicaciones de la guía

Van Gogh

En los cuadros abstractos había todo tipo de interpretaciones.

Coming soon... Black stories!

The next few weeks we will be playing Black Stories:

The game consists of several cards, each with a Black Story on one side, and the solution on the other. To play the game, one person, the Riddle Master, picks a card, reads the story out loud, and asks, “Guess why?” Only the Riddle Master is allowed to read the answer, and the rest of the players have to ask questions to solve the mystery. The catch? Only questions with “Yes” or “No” answers are allowed. If you think that sounds easy enough, here’s an example of a Black Story:

Guess why?

MAUS

1º Bach A will be reading MAUS this term.

Maus is a graphic novel by American cartoonist Art Spiegelman, serialized from 1980 to 1991. It depicts Spiegelman interviewing his father about his experiences as a Polish Jew and Holocaust survivor. The work represents Jews as mice and other Germans and Poles as cats and pigs. Critics have classified Maus as memoir, biography, history, fiction, autobiography, or a mix of genres. In 1992 it became the first graphic novel to win a Pulitzer Prize.
