END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR 2016-2017  🌅

     🌞And everything comes to an end...  1º ESO  POETRY BOOKS  are on  display in the hall for everyone to enjoy. If you wonder what's inside them I can tell you there are original poems and a thorough study of poetry devices. As well as students experiments with poetry: Haikus, Limericks...

3º ESO  Detective stories all together in a book are also in the hall....  After reading Agatha Christie's "Five Little pigs", they learnt how to create suspense and wrote their own "Whodunnits"

2º ESO read "Millions" and all their hard work is to be admired on a table in the school hall:

 


Shakespeare couldn't be forgotten and students files about him are also on the wall:

Everyone is tired and happy at the same time. Teachers and students alike.

It has been  a hard and fun struggle to get through this school year full of emotions😂 and exams 😨 with all the students in Aldebarán and the always supportive team of teachers, managers and staff.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO EVERYONE!!!

We were invited to an opening ceremony of the Project in Madrid  with the Director General de Innovación, Becas y ayudas a la Educación, Subdirector de Programas de Innovación, a representative of  Warwick University and of the British Embassy at Instituto Mirasierra.

Molly Miñano (4ºC) and Iván Gómez Perdiguero accepted the invitation and  went on stage to explain what this project means to them.

 

SCIENCE EXHIBITION

Watch cells inside in  creative models made by our students , ADN chains and more... at the Science exhibition in the upper hall (by the Library) at Aldebaran.

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"

                       

Elisa Jaén, "Stephano"                                                          Melani Huanca, "Gonzalo"

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