Jever, 10:35. Outside: Rain and storm – typical weather in Northern Germany.
Inside the Mariengymnasium, in the classroom of the 10e: Our group members are discussing how to introduce themselves. And here is the first problem – bring together six individuals, mix in some chaos, and you get the following:
First of all, there is Gert. Whether he is interested in the E-Mail project or not, doesn’t get really clear - right now, he is drawing blue prints on his desk, probably inventing some not exactly useful, but funny things. Philip to his right already misses his beloved computer and has started designing a new Armani watch on his notepad – without Photoshop and all the other useful programs, but anyway. Meanwhile, Gert has stopped drawing blue prints, but only because Fabian has stolen his pencil case and is right now playing football with it. When Gert isn’t able to get it back, he steals Fabian’s HSV scarf for revenge and soon both things are tossed everywhere but in the direction of their owners.
Esther is the good soul of our group and raises the IQ level dramatically, while she is trying to write this text together with Sina and Fabian, who has retrieved his scarf in the meantime and is now being helpful again. Sina, usually fun-loving and talkative, wished that she could say the same about Lena, who is making silly comments and spins a water bottle on the table, lost to any kind of order that Sina tries to bring into the group today. It is ten past eleven, the beginning of the big break, when this part of the text is finally finished.
Greetings from Jever, Germany:
ARE OUR teachers at school Too old?
For a good graduation you need good teachers. In our school, there are mostly older teacher and some of them teach as they have done it for 30 years. Sometimes it isn’t easy because the teachers are only talking and talking and nobody is interested in it. The younger teachers have more ideas how they could organize the lessons.
- What is school like for you?
- Do you think that your lessons could be more interesting, or do you have teachers who are able to tell you the most boring things in an interesting way, so that everyone listens to what they say?
- Give us descriptions of your normal school lessons or school life
- Talk about your “ideal school”!
Sina, Lena, Fabian, Philip, Gert and Esther
