Coslada Global

Congratulations to the Dream Team on their fantastic success in the Global Classrooms project. Ten excellent students in 3ºE (supported by the rest of the group) of the IES Luis García Berlanga in Coslada have played an excellent role in both January and February conferences held in Madrid and finally one of them will be able to go to the United Nations headquarters in New York to take part in debates with students all over the world. In that team we can´t forget the committed and enthusiastic teachers that have accompanied our students in the whole process, last (but not least) links in a chain involving parents and primary school teachers. Team work at its best!

Congratulations as well to the IES Manuel de Falla (also in Coslada), one of their students has been chosen for the NYC conference too!

The BFG´s wisdom (E2ºC)

“Giants isn't eating each other either, the BFG said. Nor is giants killing each other. Giants is not very lovely, but they is not killing each other. Nor is crockadowndillies killing other crockadowndillies. Nor is pussy-cats killing pussy-cats.

'They kill mice,' Sophie said.

'Ah, but they is not killing their own kind,' the BFG said. 'Human beans is the only animals that is killing their own kind.'

'Don't poisonous snakes kill each other?' Sophie asked. She was searching desperately for another creature that behaved as badly as the human.

'Even poisnowse snakes is never killing each other,' the BFG said. 'Nor is the most fearsome creatures like tigers and rhinostossterisses. None of them is ever killing their own kind. Has you ever thought about that?'

Sophie kept silent.

'I is not understanding human beans at all,' the BFG said.' You is a human bean and you is saying it is grizzling and horrigust for giants to be eating human beans. Right or left?'

'Right,' Sophie said.

'But human beans is squishing each other all the time,' the BFG said. 'They is shootling guns and going up in aerioplanes to drop their bombs on each other's heads every week. Human beans is always killing other human beans.'

He was right. Of course he was right and Sophie knew it. She was beginning to wonder whether humans were actually any better than giants”. (The BFG, Roald Dahl).
