Goodbye!

And so we come to the end of our time @ Queenswood :( May you all have a safe journey back home and a well earned rest! Make sure you enjoy the rest of your summer and maybe we'll see some of you again next year!

I am working on uploading the photoshows from the assemblies and also the fantastic videos that were produced by the video workshop. Here are some...more will follow!

Week 5- Shakespeare


So it's the final week!

This week in Ecomm we're going to look at Romeo and Juliet, one of Shakespeare's most famous plays.

For those who have finished all the projects available or want to try something new, here is a list of Romeo and Juliet related projects. If you don't know the play very well I would advise you to start at the beginning of the list.

  1. Character Profiles.

  2. A newspaper article reporting the death of Romeo and Juliet.

  3. Writing an alternative ending to the play.

  4. Watching different film versions of Romeo and Juliet and comparing and contrasting.

  5. Compare and contrast characters- Romeo/Juliet or Tybalt/Mercutio.

  6. Rewrite a scene using modern day language and setting.

Objectives for Week 4

Objectives are beginning to get complicated with the range of students we now- those who have just joined, those who joined us last week and those who have been here for the entirety!

So newcomers your objective for this week is to finish the Blog Requirements (things that you must have on your blog page)

People who joined us last week you must also make sure you finish the Blog Requirements and start on a project (those who work hard will be able to finish a project by the end of the week!)

Those who have been here for 4 weeks now, you should know the score. You need to finish at least one project by the end of this week.

Any questions on any of this just come and find me!!

Excursion


Hey guys,

Hope you all enjoyed the excursion yesterday...it was my first one and I have to say that the British Museum was impressive!!

Anyway, if any of you have any photos from the excursion or any photos from the weekend I would be very grateful if you could save them under the linesstudents(p:) drive and in the folder called photos so far! (if you don't know where to save them just ask me)

Then I can use them for tomorrow's assembly.

Hope you all have a good day today and remember- SPEAK ENGLISH!!!!!

Andrea
