Divulgamos - 2020- 25 de abril - «Não hei-de morrer sem saber qual a cor da liberdade» Jorge de Sena

 A COR DA LIBERDADE


               Não hei-de morrer sem saber

               qual a cor da liberdade.

 

               Eu não posso senão ser

               desta terra em que nasci.

               Embora ao mundo pertença

               e sempre a verdade vença,

               qual será ser livre aqui,

               não hei-de morrer sem saber.

 

               Trocaram tudo em maldade,

               é quase um crime viver.

               Mas, embora escondam tudo

               e me queiram cego e mudo,

               não hei-de morrer sem saber

               qual a cor da liberdade.

 

                                                                                                                 Jorge de Sena (1919-1978)

Ideal 

 

London was overall not only beautiful, but also a unique city around 1877. As you walked down the streets, you could see Victorian architecture. It was elegant, complex even, it made us wonder about the author behind such a masterpiece. But at the end of the day, my favourite spot belonged to a petit café just down the street. Just made for me, the warm cosy atmosphere, the scent of ground coffee and, most importantly, the enormous window which I insisted on sitting by every day, an action that stood somewhere between a ritual and a habit, and today was no different.

When I entered the café, I could hear the usual golden bell announcing the arrival of a customer. I walked to the balcony, ordered my usual tea and took my spot on the table by my beloved window. You see, the beauty of sitting in such a place is that you get to contemplate dozens of people passing by, and get to imagine 'who’s that person?', 'are they maybe someone who owns a fluffy cat or do they prefer dogs?' or 'have they heard already of the newest invention of Thomas Edison, the phonograph?' The possibilities are as endless as the human imagination, and today I had the pleasure of a remarkable visitor…


A single woman walked down the streets, and if I had to pick a word, I'd say she’s simply fascinating, to say the least. She was dressed in a large coat that covered most of her figure reaching knee-high, whose golden detailed buttons intrigued the viewer like a temptation. She had worn-out marron boots, and, for Christ's sake, that woman was wearing pants! The signature of either a crazy or courageous mind willing to defy the stereotypes. She charmed me like a spell, walking as she owned the world and if she had told me so, I would’ve believed. If I had to guess, I’d say she’s a suffragist, and like any suffragist, she carried the definition of independent.

The woman floated on the streets, confident enough to make anyone feel overwhelmed by her mere presence. Her chin was high enough for her to speak her mind but low enough so she doesn't seem presumptuous. In my head, she spoke her mind whenever she wanted and was listened to every time. She didn’t look like a dog or cat person, instead, she owned an owl that would occasionally bring her books, books about everything you can think of, from politics to an oddly specific fungus. She looked astonishing in the best way possible, and she was someone to admire…

“Ahem”

I looked up and saw a waiter holding a steaming teacup

'Your tea, Ma’am'

'Yes, thank you, mister'

And she was gone, like a whisper, she vanished in thin air being nothing now but an Ideal*.

  

   *Ideal: existing only in the imagination; desirable or perfect but not likely to become a reality.

                                                                              Sarah Baltazar  (10A)

In Pieces

 
 

It was 2019. At Kyiv’s Shevchenko Square, you could see a red point in the middle of the crowd. Not any red point, that was an ecstatic red point. The red point was living her dream. The red point was Liz.

Liz was spending some days in Kyiv before going back home from her time studying in Lviv. On that windy spring day, she was wearing her favourite coat. It was red, the colour she loved the most, and it had big soft buttons.

Liz didn’t want to leave Ukraine without visiting the Hero City Kyiv, so she arranged to stay there a few days before her flight home. She was sitting at a cafe, eating deruny and drinking kalyna tea, while reflecting on her past weeks in that amazing country. Liz had dreamed of going there for years, and she felt so lucky she had had the opportunity to study in Lviv, a city so beautiful that would be engraved in her memory forever.

She met wonderful people, created great memories, lived her dream…

Liz wasn’t ready to leave yet, but she had to.

It was 2022, the red point wasn’t happy, it was actually sad. The red point was worried and couldn’t believe her eyes. They were invading Ukraine once again.

Liz saw the places where she was once happy destroyed, and that left her in pieces. She read her friend’s messages and felt so sad that she couldn’t do anything to stop the aggression. The worst feeling of all was the feeling that they were destroying her dream, but she knew it wasn’t true and that she would always carry beautiful Ukraine with her, no matter where she went.

Child’s Play

 


I recognize my sins

I had been consumed then

If I’m swallowed by Hell

Heaven awaits them                                   

 

1987, America, Utah

  He finally had finished cleaning up the restaurant, everything shone eerily in the dark and William, the owner of this place, was ready to leave.

  He breathed in the cold air of the night, felt bliss, despite any regretful act he could’ve performed and entered his car to head home.

  William was greeted by his wife, Amanda, but was so tired he just nodded to her and went to bed without taking his purple uniform off.

  As dawn came closer, the wretched alarm went off. He hated that thing. Since he fell asleep wearing his uniform, William just drank some coffee Amanda made him and left to work.

  It was a small restaurant, but they still had lots of clients, mainly families with children, which the owner in purple hated because they were making so much noise. The hatred had grown so much that William started to despise children, developing psychopathic thoughts around them. Today was worse. It was a birthday party for some kid, and it brought so much noise with it. William had to leave but couldn’t as there was a shortage of staff. The screams and yelling were becoming unbearable and driving him insane.

  A thought crossed his mind; maybe, just maybe, if he could get rid of one or two, it would put some ease on his mind.

  The most distant child saw as a man in a purple suit approached her. It was easy to persuade a kid to follow him with some candy. Some went with him but never came back. The party was big and there was only one supervisor. No one noticed.

  The next day, chaos ensued, and only one thing was certain: no child would ever set foot in that restaurant again.

Divulgamos - 13 de março - «Vamos fazer postais pop-up» - 1º ciclo

 Vamos fazer postais pop-up

Sempre que se realiza o empréstimo na biblioteca escolar, no 1.º ciclo, há uma pergunta recorrente: «Professora, tem livros pop-up?», «Professora, tem daqueles livros que se abrem e aparecem formas que se levantam sozinhas?»

Esta é a pergunta recorrente na biblioteca escolar, no 1.º ciclo. Ora porque são inexistentes, propusemos aos alunos da EB/JI do Pragal, da turma da Sala Azul do Pré-escolar e a todas as turmas do 1.º ciclo, que fizessem uma experiência no mundo do «pop-up». Assim foi! Puseram mãos â obra, criaram os primeiros postais e ilustraram-nos. 



Alguns dos alunos, animados com os resultados da experiência, transformaram-nos em pequenos livros.








Divulgamos - Brighside wellbeing gardens - Projeto e-Twinning - 8.ºC e D

Brighside wellbeing gardens 


This project will act as a place where students can:

- come to and find a safe and calm space far from drama
- help students develop positive attitudes, equip students with good skills and knowledge for better wellbeing.
- learn through experiential learning
- connect and share with students from other countries
- learn how to use Web 2.0 tools effectively

 What a bettter place at school can be a Brighside wellbeing garden?


THE LIBRARY!

One of the places you can relax and enjoy yourself is in a good book. You can get immersed in a good story from the comfort of your own home, on the bus, in a garden, anywhere you like.

Reading helps you relax, disconnect from the world around you, and get really creative! You'll see a noticeable improvement in your communication skills and language learning too! 

You don't have to spend lots of money to get a good book. Public and school libraries lend books for free. Libraries have become a wonderful place to spend time, an attraction in themselves.  Have you ever been to a school library? Surely, your school librarians will help you find the best book for yourself.

See how many benefits books offer?


Os alunos, orientados pela Professora Rita Neves, visitaram a biblioteca, no dia 9 de abril, escolheram livros em inglês que irão ler e a partir dos quais elaborarão um conjunto de trabalhos que divulgaremos. Esta atividade é realizada em colaboração com a biblioteca escolar. 

Divulgamos - 1 de abril- MONSTRA MARINA - CIENTIFICAMENTE PROVÁVEL - CHAM - Universidade Nova de Lisboa

 

Não, não foi mentira! 😊 

No dia 1 de abril, falámos de monstros marinhos reais e imaginários e outros que tais!

--------------------------------------------------------------------


MONSTRA MARINA - Do real ao imaginário

No passado dia 1 de abril, a Professora Doutora Cristina Brito, do CHAM da Universidade Nova de Lisboa, fez uma palestra intitulada “Monstra Marina” dirigida a um grupo de alunos do 3º ciclo da Escola Básica e Secundária Anselmo de Andrade.

A Professora da Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Cristina Brito, através de uma sessão presencial conversou com os alunos da turma D do 8. Ano de escolaridade, no contexto da disciplina de Português e em torno do tema «Monstra Marina».

Deu a conhecer um pouco da sua profissão, bióloga marinha, e sua trajetória académica até a sua profissão atual, na área da investigação em História da Ciência e História da expansão portuguesa.

Relacionou o seu trabalho com diversas disciplinas, dando assim relevância ao conceito da interdisciplinaridade. Numa sessão de, aproximadamente, 1h 30, fizemos uma viagem desde os primórdios da navegação e do conhecimento do mundo, onde todos os fenómenos que apresentassem forma, tamanho e ruídos fora do comum, era apontado como monstros. Os marinheiros e a população da época temiam a Monstra Marina.

 Observámos várias gravuras da época e conversámos sobre os aspetos históricos e mitológicos que habitam o imaginário popular, há muitos séculos. Na realidade, conforme informou a Professora Doutora Cristina Brito, a Monstra consistia no modo como as pessoas entendiam o avistamento de baleias ou cachalotes,  animais desconhecidos, que deram origem a uma cartografia que, para além dos territórios conhecidos, monstros marinhos de várias formas e feitios eram alusivos ao que, hoje, chamamos e identificamos como baleias, pelos esguichos representados sobre as suas cabeças. Para termos ideia das dimensões de uma baleia, a Professora Doutora Cristina Brito trouxe consigo, também, um osso de uma baleia, pintado em Cabo Verde.

Havia o hábito de atribuir o nome de animais terrestres a estas criaturas marinhas: vaca-marinha, lobo-marinho, cavalo-marinho, entre outros e originaram muitos mitos. 

Por fim, a professora respondeu a algumas perguntas realizadas pelos alunos, dando a sua opinião sobre os monstros marinhos.



A realização desta palestra dirigida a este grupo de alunos foi apenas possível, devido ao convite dirigido à Professora Doutora Cristina Brito, pela biblioteca escola escolar, sob a coordenação da Professora Vanda Cândido, no âmbito do programa Cientificamente Provável do CHAM da Universidade Nova de Lisboa, em colaboração com a RBE- Rede de Biblioteca Escolares.
