Let's Learn The Alphabet

The 1st grade students learned the English alphabet in a playful way. First the individual letters were discussed and written down in a simplified version of the phonetic transcription. The students also sang the "Alphabet Song" and enjoyed the tune. Then the letters were painted in bright colors and hung up in the classroom.  In order to practice the letters the students played "Hangman" in pairs and small groups. In the meantime, the teacher kept showing "letter cookies". If the students pronounced them correctly, they were rewarded with the biscuit. A few days later, the teacher brought wooden letters and "double-checked" the students' knowledge. "Learning by doing" is our motto and the 1st forms thoroughly relished the cookies...erm...learning the alphabet! :-D

Creative Easter Stories

What happens when rolling a dice decides upon the story you have to write?

Here are two examples of Easter stories by students of 2B. With the help of the dice, they got to know about the main character of the story, the setting and the problem that had to be solved. The results? Super creative and funny Easter stories! But have a look yourselves!

Love Letters to David

The students of the 7th form were asked to write love letters to David! After being sceptical at first, they started to thoroughly enjoy their task! Maybe some have even discovered their romantic side!

Telling the way to a knight

Imagine the following situation: a rather clumsy knight – Sir Florestan – asks another knight – Mortimer – to tell him the way to a castle. The way to the castle is rather difficult due to dragons and witches. Unfortunately, it is not just the process of describing the way, that makes it an almost undoable task, it is also the clumsiness and stupidity of Sir Florestan …

Have fun reading some of the hilarious and funny dialogues of 2B! The picture was also drawn by one of the students – thank you, Jolanda Perner!

Human Rights activists

Who were / are the people fighting for Human Rights? What were / are their motivations? What were / are their milestones?

The students of 5A took a closer look at some of the most important Human Rights activists and gathered the most important data on posters accompanying their mini-presentations.

FANTASY ANIMALS

The students of the 2nd forms proudly present their fantasy animals.

 

After having dealth with "Animals from Atlantis" the students were asked to come up with their own fantasy animals. They had to describe and paint their creatures on two separate sheets. All the pictures were hung up in the classroom. Everybody got a description of a random animal and they finally had to find the suitable picture to go with the text. It was great fun and thankfully everybody found the correct counterpart.
