English at Liceo Libertador O'Higgins: High school events

June 3rd, 2011 - School's fair and anniversary celebration:

Classes stopped at 1.00pm to let students prepare for their activities, games and different performances of the afternoon.

Olympiades on the playground. There were several teams (colored) representing the different school's sections

These pictures introduce you with the "Dia Del Libro" event which took place on April 29th at the school. The students were to perform different scenes of the most important masterpieces of Castillan Literature; from great classics such as Don Quijote to more contemporary works.

The school's playground

This is the classroom where I (Fanny, the volunteer) teach English speaking and listening. I am working on its decoration now with the help of the students. We work in semi-circle or in small table groups usually, to ease communication in the classroom.

The stage, ready for the plays of the Dia del Libro.

This is a group of some of my students from 4mA and 4mB. These sections are very nice kids as well as motivated students. They are between 16 and 18 years-old. Some of them were in the play: Don Quijote (background boy on the right), Sancho Panza and Dulcinea's characters (foreground, the students on the right). Also are present here some students helping at setting-up the props for the different scenes.
