ALDEBARÁN CELEBRATES SHAKESPEARE

Exhibition of Shakespeare's life Timelines to represent the life and work of the master playwright  on display in the hall next to Cervantes' posters.

 

1st ESO students have been guests at the British School of Madrid (Pozuelo)  to watch the  performance of "The Tempest "  by the Yong Shakespeare Company.

Previously they had read  the story in the classroom so they knew the plot and could follow the story as well as  the extraordinary performance.

We shared with the British School students an interactive workshop on how to perform/approach the Shakespeare play and afterwards watched the performance.

Back in Aldebarán, our students organized their own  "The Tempest".  They made everything by themselves : the setting, the acting , the whole performance. Here are some photographs that show their acomplishnent

                        

Fernando J. Carrillo, "Sebastián"     Alba Pintado, "Alonso"           Alejandra Aguilera "Próspero"

And here is 1º A ESO with their English teacher after the performance.

NEUROSCIENCE WEEK AT ALDEBARÁN

Our students have dedicated the week to the study of their brains in different ways. There are very interesting posters explaining the latest research all round the school, and some of the youngest students have created a "brain hat" for their heads.
