CHÂLLONS-EN-CHAMPAGNE MEETING



COMENIUS PROJECT: CHALLENGES MAKING A CHANGING SOCIETY
La semaine du 7 jusqu’à le 12 de Novembre, nous sommes été en France pour participer au Projecte Comenius, avec encore 5 pays : la France, la Roumanie, l'Allemagne, la Pologne et la Turquie. Tous les pays sommes été en France pour nous réunir, pour travailler, pour nous rattacher, pour pratiquer le langue Anglaise et le langue Française, pour visiter Paris et pour comparer et discuter sur différents sujets pour observer les différences entre les pays que nous avons été là. Tous les élèves avons été chez élèves ou chez professeurs du Lycée et là nous avons parlé Français ou Anglais parce-que c'était la unique forme pour nous rattacher avec la famille.
Le premier jour tous les pays avons fait une exposition orale sur notre pays et nous avons visité Châlons en champagne. Le deuxième jour nous avons visité le vignoble Joseph Perrier et l‘après-midi chaque pays avons fait un poster sur les crédos de notre collège. Le troisième jour nous avons pris le bus jusqu'à Paris et nous sommes restés à dormir tous dans une auberge jusqu’à le quatrième jour. Là nous avons visité la tour Eiffel, le musée Luvre, la Notre Dame ou le palais de Versailles entre d'autres choses. Il a fait un temps très mauvais, il a plu presque tous jours et il a fait beaucoup froid et vent, pardessus le jour lequel nous avons visité Versailles. L’après-midi du quatrième jour nous avons pris au retour au Châlons en champagne. Finalement le dernier jour nous avons visité Reims et l'après-midi nous avons pris l'avion pour tourner jusqu’à Barcelone.

From November 7th to 12th , three teachers of ESO and two students representing all the students of 4th of ESO of our school have been in France to participate at the Comenius Project. A project which six countries participate: Romania, Turkey, Poland, Germany, France and us.
They went to Chalôns en Champagne, a village located in the north of France, next to Paris. There, the teachers were in a hotel and all the students were in host families. This means that they had to talk in English and French too.
In the school they exposed all the works that all the students of 4th of ESO have done since September.
One day they went to Paris and another day they went to Versailles. All the members of the different countries, one night went to a youth hostel for sleeping, so they met new friends who have different culture, language...
I was really a nice experience.

OUTSOURCING

What does outsourcing mean? Let's get to know it through an example.

Survey on Parents Working Abroad

Do our parents work abroad? What countries do they travel? What kind of job do they do?
These questions can help us to know the degree of globalisation refering to professional careers.

The World is Flat


The students of 4th ESO read the books "The World is Flat" and "Hot, Flat and Crowded" by Thomas Friedman, an internationally renowned American author, reporter, columnist of the NY Times and the recipient of three Pulitzer Prizes.
The aim these readings was to prepare students for their professional careers in a continuosly changing world. Students had the opportunity to read about what companies expect from their workers, what skills and personal qualities qualified employees need, or simply, how we have to prepare for our future.
