LAST PROJECT: KITCHEN COMPOSITION

Hi guys!!!

Our last project of this academic year is related to MUSIC. As you have told me in class, music is really important in your life. Some of you like all kind of music, others have a favourite singer or group...Anyway...have you ever thought in creating your own music?? Here you are a project quite original for you to be THE ARTIST.

You are going to compose a PIECE OF MUSIC. You are not going to use real instruments, you are doing it with APPLIANCES AT HOME such as, some forks or spoons, a blender, a vacuum cleaner,..whatever you consider available to produce music. If you need an example, watch the link below, a video related to this:

1st) You have to title your PIECE OF MUSIC.

2nd) You have to explain your feelings, emotions and ideology of the composition.

3rd) Your piece of music should last no longer than two minutes.

Your Music Teacher is going to evaluate your music creation and I am going to evaluate your writing about the title and the ideology of your creation.

Deadline will be 7th June and you will work in three groups of eight people each. GOOD LUCK AND DO YOUR BEST IN THE LAST PROJECT FOR THIS COURSE

A SPECIAL VISIT FROM AUSTRALIA

A few weeks ago, we had special visitors in our class: Kristie´s family: her mum, her sister and her newly born niece. They came from Australia all the way to Villamayor. During the hour with our bilingual group, everyone had a great time getting to know each other.
The class began with the students welcoming Kristie´s family´s. Then each student came forward and told a little about our class, our village, Kristie, some curiosities about Spain and Australia and then, the introduction was complete. Later, It was Kristie´s family turn: we practised some interesting quizzes related to australian culture and we even tried VEGEMITE, a typical food in Australia. It was very strong however, it was tasty.
It was a great visit. Thank you Kristie for sharing your family with us and thank you guys, because you made them feel very welcome and they were impressed with all your questions and how well you speak and understand english. GREAT JOB GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
