Journalist by Raquel Pelayo.

This week I have been the journalist. This week our stars, Rosana and Cristian, during Easter they had to learn the questions for the quiz that all the stars of each group had to participate. The quiz consisted in a play which consisted in a board of snakes and stairs, with the stairs you must go up and with the snakes you must go down. The first group which arrive to the end the first win. So the teacher asked them the questions that we made and they must answer. Our stars asked them very well!!

Here you have an example of the board:

The winner was our classmates T8T in the first position and the second position was for “Step by Step”. Congratulations for both groups, good job!!

Then Linda, our teacher of this subject, said us which were the other prizes for the conceptual maps and for the best questions. We have the second position in the best questions for the quiz with our classmates the group of Hide and Seek.

So, we have just finished this subject, now we must to study very hard for our next exam.

It has been a pleasure for me work with you guys, thank you for all. 

Here we have our two stars Rosana and Cristian, and at the background Maria, Fernando and me (Raquel). This picture was made before starting the quiz.

This week the stars have played the game, and firstly I want to congratulate all of them because they did it their best. Cristian and Rosana were our stars and although they answered properly all the questions we did not win, but it is not our fault.

I think that this game is not the perfect way to decide if we know the answers or not, because only two people can participate on it, while the rest of the group is only clapping and looking at them. Also, if you know all the answers but when you roll the die, only small numbers appear, you will not win. I think that this game is enjoyable, but not a fair play.

This is my last time as the analyst, so I want to say that with this subject I have learnt a lot of knew things and I have discovered that without any printed book, papers or teachers help, we can learn things better, because we have to investigate by ourselves, reading different pieces of information and summarizing what we consider the most important.

What´s more, I think that taking the different roles is a very good idea, because we can work in a different way each week and also we can help to our colleagues when they have to do a role that we did before, so we collaborate helping us and doing it our best.

So, CONGRATULATION to Brainstorming and remember this two words: WE CAN!!!

Work as Stars by Rosana Yepes and Cristian Paco

"The fortune roulette", "The price is right" or "Drop a million” which one would you choose for being a competitor?  I would say better play Bingo.

Well, this week we have felt like contestant in a popular TV program at dinner time in channel 4.  We have played "The snake and leather game", students were the contestant, Linda the conductor and the price was set up as a wild card with high mark for each member of the group to be changed by one question (of the two questions) in the oral final exam. It's mean that the students who win the game will take advantage of the card and will almost have pass 50% of the final oral exam.

The game is about drooping the dices, answering the questions and running as faster as the luck let you in order to reach the first position, if you fail the questions there is no lucky at all but due to the difficulty of the questions and few things else, almost everybody was able to answer the questions easily. 

Watching into this activity we now perfectly that the purpose of the game is not only get the price as it is set up just to motivate the students, we have to recognize that we have learn quite a lot about LOMCE by doing nothing, impressive!! And also we are almost ready to the final exam, nice!!

But because we love been naughty we have to compile about to factors totally opposite at the university, "luck & price" as it must be "effort & price". It doesn’t mean this activity didn’t get its purpose but not in the correct way.

Anyway, we’ll keep doing as much as we can as the sun rise and set every day and probably one day we'll be able to scream, BINGO!!!
