Do you remember the last time you
laughed until your sides split, while watching a movie?
Well that’s what a good comedy does
to you and what we want our pupils to experience.
The benefits
of watching movies are immense. For
example, you´re sitting in a class with your friends eating popcorn and sipping
your favourite soft drink while watching your favourite film. You get a sense
of enjoyment and are able to connect with your friends after the movie by
discussing what you did and didn´t like about the film.
Teachers at María Inmaculada want
their students to feel excited, scared, emotional and happy during that one and
a half hour. We also want them to be swept away to a world full of imagination
and to enjoy every moment of it.
One of the best benefits of watching a movie is that it inspires you. Biographies
and movies on historical figures often give you a glimpse into the simple
truths of life. You get to see through your own eyes the transformation of
ordinary men and women into heroes in times of need. It also motivates you to
look at life in a different way. They realize a regular person like them is
capable of doing great things and they learn that they can do these things too.
We are certain that the principal
reason people watch films is to be entertained. We will watch a film on the last Friday of every month in English. This
is to help improve the English level of the pupils. It will also teach them how
to differentiate the different accents of English speakers.
We
hope that this is a time where the pupils can relax and have some fun while
learning new things.
