1.ca.08 JOVES BROCÀNTERS.
1.ca.08 JOVES BROCANTERS.
1. Brocanter (del francès brocanteur) és la persona l’ofici de la qual és la compra i venda de tot tipus d’objectes usats, en un principi d’entre cinquanta i cent anys.
A una pròxima sortida observarem que hi ha edificis antics que tenen un valor i un encant especial. De moment heu de demanar a familiars i amics que us deixin dur a l’institut, el proper dilluns dia 10 de novembre, algun objecte antic, que tengui molts d’anys. Tant poden ser coses senzilles c om valuoses que, amb permís del propietari, ens mostreu a la classe i ens conteu la seva història i origen. Si és un moble o altre objecte de grans dimensions, ho podeu fotografiar i mostrar-nos la imatge a través de la pissarra electrònica. Es tracta de compartir amb els companys d’aula algunes coses antigues, d’altre temps. Precisament el pas dels anys els ha donat un valor afegit, i també el fet de ser de la família. Guardem les nostres tradicions, els nostres objectes, les coses que val la pena conservar.
Ànim, que segur que aconseguireu meravelles. Guardau-les i no les tireu.
1.ca.07 SANTA CATALINA SENSE CANONITZAR.
1.ca.07 SANTA CATALINA SENSE CANONITZAR.
El proper dimarts dia 5 de novembre farem la visita dels barris de Santa Catalina i el Jonquet, i també el museu del Baluard. En aquesta sortida descobrirem molins, edificis emblemàtics i altres que, sense ser extraordinàriament artístics, tenen coses interessants. A més, tots formen part d’un conjunt característic que contribueixen a formar un barri històric amb personalitat pròpia.
Hem d’aprendre a valorar les coses que, a més del valor intrínsec, amb el temps adquireixen una plusvàlua sentimental i entranyable, tal com passa amb els objectes que conservau dels vostres padrins.
Fitxa que heu de contestar durant la sortida, per equips.
1) Heu d’escriure tots els cartells que trobeu escrits en català. També els noms de carrers o places relacionats amb la revolució industrial de finals del segle XIX i principis del XX.
2) Cerca botigues antigues que et cridin l’atenció.
3) Comenta les diferències que es noten a la dreta i a l’esquerra del pont de sa Riera.
4) Tres edificis de la plaça del Fortí amb relleus escultòrics. Resumeix l’anècdota religiosa de l’edifici més alt. ¿T’has fixat si a l’entrada del nostre institut hi ha qualque relleu en forma humana?
5) Compara els molins de Santa Catalina i els del Jonquet. Importància del vent. Funcions dels molins.
6) Influències modernistes: cantons arrodonits, motius florals, ferro forjat, persiana mallorquina, façanes amb rajoles, hivernacles.
7) Investiga la feina que fa ARCA en defensa del patrimoni cultural.
8) Comenta les professions que exercien antigament la majoria de persones que habitaven aquests dos barris que hem visitat.
9) El nom d’alguns barris de Palma fan referència a un carrer o edifici molt destacat (Blanquerna o Plaça de Toros). Altres són noms en castellà (el Terreno, Amanecer). Molts d’altres tenen el nom de l’antiga possessió on es varen urbanitzar (Son Espanyolet, Son Gotleu). Pensa en el nom d’altres barris de Palma que tenguin nom de sants, com Santa Catalina, o de llocs, com el Jonquet.
1.en.12 Walk in the Old City: The Cathedral
On Thursday, weather permitting, we shall go for a walk in the old town. If it rains, we’ll have to cancel the walk. If this happens, we ‘ll be able to go on a virtual walk using this interactive map, which is part of a great site: Gothic Palma. This site will also be helpful to complete the information of the dossier after the outing.

YOKO ONO AND PAUL McCARTNEY MAKE PEACE |

Finally, 43 years after they broke up, undisputed peace has broken out in the Beatles‘ camp. Last year, Paul McCartney admitted the band’s split had not been the fault of Yoko Ono, who married John Lennon in 1969. Now Ono has said she is “thankful” for McCartney’s words.
In an interview with the Times, Ono said of McCartney’s admission: “I was very, very thankful. I mean I was shocked. I thought, ‘Now you are saying it? Now, after 40 years? But it was very good. In the atmosphere that the world created for us, it was not easy for him to say something like that.” Nevertheless, she said the hatred directed at her in the wake of the Beatles’ break-up had been a crucial factor in her development as an artist in the subsequent years. “I’m starting to understand something interesting,” she said. “If all those people hadn’t bashed me, what would I be doing now? What I am now was made by all those terrible incidents. I thought it was terrible all those years, but when I think about it now, I realise it was a blessing.”
It seems impossible to keep the Beatles out of the news. McCartney has just released his latest solo album, New, and the Beatles themselves are likely to chalk up yet another No 1 album when the second volume of their BBC sessions is released on 11 November. For those who prefer something quieter, Ringo Starr has put together a picture book for small children based on the lyrics of Octopus’s Garden.

1.en.11 Visit to Es Baluard and Santa Catalina neighbourhood
Next week, Tuesday the 5th of November, we shall visit Es Baluard and St Catalina neighbourhood. Es Baluard is a good example of an old building which has been recovered and given a new use. The name itself, Es Baluard, gives you a hint of its old function. Nowadays it has been transformed into a museum. A dossier will be given to you to take notes and carry our some observation activities. You will be working in groups. Julián has made the groups in 1esoE and Bernat in 1esoD. Next Thursday, in our outing to the Cathedral and the old town, groups and group leaders will be the same.
Visiting a museum on line can not substitute a first hand experience. Virtual reality is not the same as real life. However,the web site of Es Baluard is a good option to revisit it (visit it again in a virtual way) and get information about what we shall see tomorrow (artists names, description of artwork and so on. You can also visit it to find out coming events. Here you have the link. 
I’m sure you all understand what “current” means, don’t you?
Before visiting the museum, we shall go for a walk in Santa Catalina. Santa Catalina is one of Palma’s neighbourhoods. Last week we went up to the tower and observed the views. Santa Catalina is situated towards the West. Look at this map and check its position. In this map you can see the faint white line that circles the old historic city (inside the city walls). The historic city has grown and different neighbourhoods have developed surrounding the old city.
1.en.10 Up and Down the stairs: Changing habits
With Núria, your art teacher, you are working on Escher paintings, aren’t you? So you must be familiar with Escher’s stairs, which seem to take you nowhere. Imaginary buildings where people go up and down aimlessly.
Last week, we went on a school tour. As people in Escher’s paintings we went up and down endless stairs. The central stairway in our school is really beautiful, isn’t it? You had also the chance to go even further, all the way to the tower. The reward for so much exercise was a nice view from the top, wasn’t it? How many steps did you count?
In our school there is a 
lift. It was built a few years ago to be used by disabled people, for instance, people in 
wheel chairs or people with a broken a leg who have to use crutches 
We also have some ramps, to facilitate access to classrooms
Most students and teachers use the stairs. Going up the stairs keeps you fit and it is good for your health. If you could use a lift or an escalator, would you go up the stairs? Most of us probably wouldn’t.
In cities you can also find stairs, ramps and often
escalators, moving staircase devices for carrying people between floors of a building.
Next week we shall go on a city walk. You will observe Palma with new eyes.
- Is our city adapted for disabled people?
- Are there lots of stairs?
- Are there ramps to facilitate access to people with disabilities?
Can we change our habits by looking at things from a different perspective?
Stockholm, a beautiful city with a modern underground system they did an experiment to encourage people going up the stairs instead of choosing the escalator.
Can we change our habits by making them fun? What the video an write a comment on your notebook
on Monday we’ll go on a walk in the city and one of your tasks will be to find ways to improve city life.
What do you think of this idea? Do you believe the theory of fun might work?
