Mickybo and Me

For my 2nd Baxt class, I decided to show them a film made in Northern Ireland based in 1970 called Mickybo and me. It is about two boys who think they are cowboys and run away from home trying to get to Australia during the height of the troubles. I showed it in English with English subtitles and also prepared questions and a vocabulary list.

Guy Fawkes and the Gunpowder Plot

This was a presentation that was prepared but not shown to any classes as I deemed the standard too difficult for some of the classes due to the important history aspects.

Human Rights and Laws in Northern Ireland

In the 3Eso Optional class, the students were studying human rights and how it affected them. This presentation includes many videos to allow them to see examples of the human rights in action. I also included many laws that are different than those in Spain, e.g. the TV licence and the fireworks ban as these interested the pupils the most.
