Happy World Poetry Day

Our kids in 6° have dealt with the poem Annabel Lee by Edgar A. Poe.
Some kids have copied it in some bunting, some others learnt the song about it (Radio Futura), some others made the posters about it and the Romantic Era and, some others became our videoclip actors for a day!

PROYECTO APROBADO.Free A Domestic Bookworm Elf. E-Twinning Project 2019

Our Spanish Language Head Teacher, Inmaculada Sánchez has thought about something big to be carried out at school.
I am delighted to post I will be in charge of making it an e-Twinning project in collaboration with other schools in Europe.
Nuestra jefa del Departamento de Lengua Castellana y Literatura y profesora de  ESO y Bachillerato,Inmaculada Sánchez, lleva desde principio de curso esbozando algo grande.
Nuestra compañera de 4°EPO, Francisca Cano, también le estaba dando vueltas a una gran idea.
Como dicen, 'Great Minds Think Alike'.
Las grandes mentes piensan igual y ellas, sin hablarlo antes, compartían la misma ilusión.
Yo seré la varita que plasme sus ideas, otras mías y del claustro en un proyecto e-Twinning que acabo de esbozar en Inglés para que esas maravillosas iniciativas de nuestras compañeras lleguen a rincones escondidos de Europa.
¡Qué mayor magia que esa!

En cuanto nos acepten como socios otros profesores de otros colegios de Europa (nuestra socia de Cracovia) y nos lo apruebe el Servicio Nacional de Apoyo de e-Twinning, arrancará un proyecto apasionante para personitas, personas de mediana edad y mayores.
Y por qué no...
Para lechuzas, elfos domésticos y Boggarts.
A los dementores, mejor los dejamos bien lejos.
¡Id buscando los calcetines viejos que tengáis, que hay que prepararse para liberar a todos los Dobby del cole!
Keep tuned!
Alohomora!

Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr Edgar (Allan) Poe

I feel proud to say one of my favourite days in the year is getting closer in time.
Poetry Day is not only a date to devote to poetry, but to emotions as the glue that binds us to other human beings.
One kid told me robots will be able to feel a poem. That will not happen. Poetry, literature, arts, music are linked to the very core of humans.

The chosen poet for 6º will be Edgar (Allan) Poe and his 'Annabel Lee'.
I heard that poem  for the first time when I was 10 and it got me thinking.
Then, as an adult and,when I was going for  my degree, we had to read ´The Man of The Crowd´ as one of the compulsory tasks in Literatura Norteamericana. I fell in love with that brief story.

Our kids in 6º will:
-Make a poster about the poem
-Cope with it in both languages
-Perform it as actors
-And sing the song about it (by Radio Futura)

It will be team work with the only target to make them realise once you are deprived of your fears, you become a monster. As long as you feel scared, you keep alive.
