Buen
as Tardes! so this is the deal, "THE RANDOM PLATYPUS" is the new section of this blog which ...is completely random. It is actually a part of my blog where I will be telling you short stuff, not necessarily about drama class or maybe explain something odd! for example, Today's Random Platypus has the intention to explain why my SO RARE POST TITLES. Well actually, I decided that the titles are going to be songs that are linked to what have happened or just the song I listen to, when i'm posting!
***** THE RANDOM PLATYPUS *****
Today (thursday 5th), robertini was begging for a little less conversation!!! we talk too much hehe. We started today's class by saying our Birthdays!!! (to know each other more) then... we were asked to re-order the class as we wanted. So we, the "EXTREME MAKE OVER-Drama EDITION" team started thinking, and we concluded that the main idea was "let's make it a sort of amphitheatre" but then we started changing some little details. At the end, we made a sort of Cheap Stage, with a backstage (but the doors were not able to be open), a stage with some props (really extra chairs) and audience seats (in a rectangular shape). It was a mess. When we were asked to explain what we've done... we just started to make some random excuses for the position of the things. The good thing about this exercise, is that we learned how to work as a team, listen to each other, and try to understand different points of view, which might become in handy in the future, at work or even at school projects. We, later on...found out our mistakes (light, distraction, eyecatching? secure?). Robertini said that for something to work we need to think of the action we are doing, how are we doing it and why! sometimes the reason comes after we made a move.
Our last activity of the day was, using only 4 chairs, 2 cubes and 1 bench ...to make a sculpture. We named our's "TEA TIME FUNERAL" and I think robertini liked it!! ..It was awesome! with this, we learned that each thing has its purpose of being there, and also that in a stage, boxes are boxes but can be used as many things. E.g: our cubes were supposed to represent a table and a coffin, and just by saying the name of our masterpiece :P valentina said it was a coffin (but actually...they were cubes). And that's about it! I wonder..how fun will it be to make a sculpture with people (not with chairs)???

I see that roberto is forcing you to make questions at the end of the blog. :p
somethings never change
good, though... try to make your entries a little less emotional and a little deeper... and forget about what the teacher may think or like, concentrate on your own questions and your own process... the last question is nice but maybe not yet IB Higher Level... i am going to push you to your limits...
