CELL MODEL CONTEST

    In Biology class, we have done a contest for 3D models of human cells. The students have created great models. They were very creative, and the models have been very original and visual appealing.

    The models were shown first in class, and then in the main hall of the building where they were voted for by the students and the teacher in search of the best ones. The voters should consider:

- that all the parts and organelles of a human cell are represented

- its visual appeal, and

- its originality


These were the winners:

1 st prize: Luis Alfonso Ronchas (3ºD)






2 nd prize: Laura Perez (3ºD) and Alicia Villoria (3ºE)













3 rd prize: Lara Bernal (3ºD) and David Rodriguez (3ºD)


But there are many others that were also great; I would say that almost all of them were. These are some examples:

Book cover

 To commemorate Library Day (October 24th) the students of 2nd ESO have redesigned the covers of their favourite books while applying some of the composition principles covered in class. The best exercises have been displayed in the school hall for everybody to see and get inspiration for the next read.


Below are some of these fantastic covers up close:






















Emoji design contest

This time of the year in 1st ESO, we are discovering the world of audiovisual communication. And one of the most engaging activities to learn how to express different emotions by using images is the creation of custom emoji sets. To encourage the students, the exercise is proposed as a contest, where the winners receive their emojis digitalized as a prize. The best works are displayed, so all the students get inspiration from their classmates' creativity.

First, I show them the classic version and ask them to choose 10 different emotions:

Then, I ask them to think of an original concept for the set. All the emojis must be coherent with that idea. And finally, they find a name for the set. Below are some of my favourite emoji sets from this year:




















And these are the winners!

 

Third place: Sara Masi (1ºE)

 

Second place: Candela Tomé (1ºF)


First place: Celia Rincón (1ºF)


Finally, for the prize, I digitalized and slightly improved the original designs. That way, the winners can use their emojis as a stickers and in their social media. This is the result:




Congratulations to the winners for the gorgeous designs!
