A DAY IN THE LIFE WITH NOUNS

These beautiful images were created by my students based on the text " Circuito Fechado" by  Ricardo Ramos. They were supposed to write a text about their daily routine using mainly nouns. So lucky to have students like these ones...

JUST ONE MINUTE

Here are some pics of the Project "JUST ONE MINUTE" mentioned below.
Today´s presentation was awesome. I can say that the students did the lesson today. Wired, visual, active... with their clicks, links and communities.... This makes me reflect on which direction we are going...
Some of the questions are in this video and in  the article referred on the video: digital natives and digital immigrants. But what are the answers to the questions??????????????????????

    I promise to post the links to their works as soon as I get them.

                                                                                                    hugs

  PROJECT   “BLACKS WHITES AND THE BLUES”

Professores responsáveis: Eliane ( LPL)  Laís (INGLÊS) e Richard (ARTES)

Trabalho solicitado aos alunos das primeiras séries do Ensino Médio sobre  “BLUES” e elaboração de Portfólio  e de blog, com os resultados da pesquisa.

Após a  aula de apresentação  sobre a  constituição de um portfólio, foram sugeridos aos alunos  das primeiras séries do Ensino Médio, sub-temas da pesquisa da HISTÓRIA DO BLUES.
*   Gêneros/estilos ( Delta, Chicago, Dallas, Britânico, Nacional etc)
*  a transição do Blues acústico para o elétrico
*  a influência do Blues em outros gêneros musicais ( Rock, Jazz, Pop...), além de projeção e indicação de filmes e documentários que abordam o assunto.

Obs. O Portfólio deve ser escrito em inglês e comentado em português, evidenciando o entendimento dos textos, bem como as reflexões de todos os  integrantes do grupo.

POEM 1 FROST

I´m very proud of my students when they use all their sensibility to do jobs like the ones I´ve posted on "STUDENTS ON THE ROAD".  For this activity they have read Robert Frost´s poem " Stopping by woods on a snowy evening" suggested on the course of English language specialization  (REDEFOR)  in one   of the activities. As Frost is one of my favorite poets I decided to use it in the classroom.

First, the students  analyzed the poem in groups of four; then, they were challenged to express the content using technological resources. So, they decided it would be a video in which they would choose the song and images that best represented the poem. I´d like to thank them all, especially  Eduardo, Lucas Santos, Hamon, João Otávio, Fabrício Negrini and Arielton for their choices and the emotional and  powerful way they´ve done it. Congrats guys!
