Newspaper Treasure Hunt!

In United Kingdom we can find two types of newspapers:

• -Tabloids, that they publish news about sensationalist journalism.
• -Broadsheets, that they publish news about serious journalism.

The difference between them is the size, Broadsheets (600 mm by 380 mm) are bigger than Tabloids (half the size of broadsheets at 380 mm by 300 mm).

Yellow journalism is a type of journalism that downplays legitimate news in favour of eye-catching headlines that sell more newspapers.

The Guardian is a British daily newspaper owned by the Guardian Media Group. It is published Monday to Saturday in the Berliner format. It was founded in Manchester in 1821 by John Edward Taylor. If we want to buy it costs 90 pence (in GBP) from Monday to Friday and on Saturday, it is £1.70.

The Sun is a tabloid newspaper published in United Kingdom and Ireland. His first published was on 15th September 1964. The name of this newspaper means, ‘The Sun’: Student University News. His news published are about daily life news and yellow journalism that makes a little bit strange his headlines but also different from the others. The Sun is so controversial because is a tabloid and is different from the others, so inside it you can fins ‘absurd’ things, nute girls, and news that you wouldn’t imagine that exist but, they really exist.

Yesterday, in the city of Amsterdam, a lot of people form Barcelona came there for have a look at it. They went to lot of places and everybody that where in the streets have seen them because they were to much people in one street looking for buy so many things and toke pictures too. One of our reporters could ask a few questions to some of them and they told us that they are doing an exchange (the first they did and also the first of their high school) with one school of Breda call De Nassau. They were talking very excited and happy because they said that they are seeing a lot of new things and beautiful, of course! Summarizing all they have said...they are doing an exchange with guys of one year older, they went to Amsterday, they saw a lot of new things and they went there because they want to visited and also because the teachers thought that was a good idea and finally they were very tired because they had to returned to Breda by coach during two hours more and also becasue they walked a lot.

I hope you enjoy reading this little article! I don´t knw if you are going to read this before Tuesday but I write it for the people that si working in our school. See you!!

The legend explians that:

Some time ago, on 23rd of April of 303, Saint George beat a dragon to save a young girl, the king’s daughter. When the dragon was defeated, its blood became red roses, and Saint George took one for the princes.

Exchange Salvador Espriu-De Nassau

The 25th of March 23 dutch students come to Barcelona to do an exchange with our class. Because we were more people, some of us share 1 dutch student.
They arrive to Girona at 11.15h and they take a bus that leave them near the school.
In the days that they stay here we visit Montserrat, Park Güell, Glòries and Diagonal Mar but they visit also(without us) the golden square and the constructions of Gaudí in Passeig de Gràcia( la pedrera and casa batlló), they also visit the cathedral and Sagrada Familia.
They like a lot going shopping and they buy lots of things. We also go to bowling in Diagonal mar and to the beach in Port Olímpic.
They leave Barcelona the 1st of April, we met in the school at 7h and the leave with a bus to the airport of Girona.

A NewsItem about the exchange!

Hi!

Today I’ll write a NewsItem with Luana’s help:

A few weeks ago a class of the school “De Nassau” from Holland, came to Barcelona to do an exchange with us (student’s of 3r ESO). Most of them were one year older than us. Our teachers made an special timetable for the activites we had to do with them. There were a lot of activites like for example going to Montserrat, Park Güell…We also went to Glòries (almost every day), Diagonal Mar (at the weekend), Bowling (inside Diagonal Mar)…Of course, girls went shopping whenever they could. It was a good expierence, but this was just the beginning of the exchange…now we have to go to Breda (in Holland) to visit a lot of places and of course to practise and learn more English.

Television kills

Yesterday, Prof. Manfred Spitzer said in a press conference that TV makes children excessively violent and it can also increase the percentage of deaths by obesity and heart disease Twenty thousand german people have died as a consequence, this year.
Also, Manfred says in his book called "Beware of the TV screen" that children who watch TV excessively receive more mental damage and this affects their mental capacities and can create depression, increased violence and make children more distracted in class.

When we asked him about how TV can cause heart attacks in young people and make them obese, Manfred told us that when you’re a child and you see food advertisments on TV, when you are an adult, you will remember them and you’ll buy the food you saw when you were young.
