Beowulf animated movie

Watch the video and answer the questions in the quiz I gave you (3ºB).

Mead-hall (Heorot):

Grendel is back!

Grendel as you know from Beowulf is a dreadful blood-thirsty monster who slaughtered many warriors in a brutal way and ravaged the land of the Danes. Beowulf killed him, but what if he lived nowadays? What should we do with a monster like Grendel now, in the 21st century? We no longer live in barbaric, brutal Middle Ages, we are far more civilised... aren´t we?  In pairs (the same ones as for the first presentations), you have been assigned some possible solutions ("actions")  for the situation and countries, because as you know we are going to find a way to solve this using the UN model (so check your notes on the procedure given to you by Carlos). You have to defend your action in the TUESDAY OCT 25 (3ºA) / FRIDAY OCT 28 (3ºB) conferences we´ll hold about the issue, so you are supposed to prepare an opening speech (1.30 min long) explaining why your action is the most effective. You should also think of disadvantages of the other punishments in order to have arguments against the other pairs´ actions. In relation with the country assigned to your pair you don´t have to prepare anything, just make a PLACARD with the country name on it. The future of our world as we know it now depends on you!
