This is the unit we have already started and which is meant to give you a say and enhance your partcipation. Here is an overview.
You'll be working in groups of 4 and here you can find the specific set of instructions for each group. You'll be preparing posters (all groups) and a role-play (a group of volunteers!).

Still our first week - OS GÉMEOS
Our study visit to the CCB went very well, in my opinion.
We had some time together outside school after the long! summer holiday to make a smoother transition and we learned quite a few things about Public art and Street/Urban art as we were quite literally immersed in this dream world created by Os Gémeos.
"The painted doors of these houses are metaphors of the different passages into the imagination" Eric Corne, Curator - Os Gémeos - Para quem mora lá, o céu é lá
I'm looking forward to reading your comments which, I recall, are due on Tuesday, 21 (11-8) and Thursday, 23 (11-5). Click here to see the guidelines/worksheet, if you need. View some of the photos here.

Egg...cersise
I hope you enjoyed our start... I'm sure you didn't see it coming. As we discussed after the game, this is a fun way of reflecting on key issues such as the role of cooperation and creativity and I hope it does help us create and keep a friendly and working atmosphere in class throughout the year.
The observers played their role extermely well. All of you should take a look at the Observer's checklist.

Welcome back
Hello everybody. I'm looking forward to meeting you.
I know you are counting down to school's start, too. Now, honest, I know you are saying 'oh no, school again', but deep inside you're looking forward to meeting your colleagues again and even to resuming work! Our little brain cells got a bit lazy during summertime and they're begging for some activity...
In short, yes, I'm counting on your enthusiasm and fresh ideas and I must say I have some ideas of my own... I hope you enjoy your new school year. It's up to us, actually, so let's do it.
To help the transition between holiday and school I keep this photo on my desktop. Guess where I spent the best part of my holiday :-)
