QUESTIONS FROM SPAIN TO POLAND
by: Spanish team
- How many breaks do you have?
After each lesson. They are 5, 10 or 20 minutes
long.
- Don’t you have arts?
We have got Art lessons but in the second and
the third grade of junior high school. They are
divided into 2 subjects: art (drawing) and music.
- Is it difficult to study three languages?
Yes, it is but we really have to study them hard
because we have got exams on two levels. The
exam is in the third grade.
- What is “an hour with a teacher”?
It’s a lesson with our class teacher. We are
discussing our behaviour during the week,
talking about important things, looking after our
classroom, preparing decoration, planning class
events, etc.
A class teacher is responsible for contacts with
our parents, the class documentation, printing
certificates, etc.
- Why do you start and finish at different hours?
This is the school’s decision. The classrooms
aren’t always free. We have got different clubs
and they are before our lessons or after them.
- Why do you have 5 or 10 minutes after each
class?
This is the school’s decision. We’ve got some
time to move from one classroom to another,
eat, talk, etc. The longest breaks last for 15
minutes.
- How many assessments / terms do you have?
There are two terms. The first one is between
September and January, the second one between
February and June.
We have got a lot of tests and many ways of
assessment during the term. Our progress is
evaluated every day. The school is using an
electronic diary.
- Are all your classes in the same class?
No, they aren’t. We have got lessons in different
classroms. There is English lab, Biology lab,
Maths lab, etc.We have got our own swimming
pool and some of our P.E. lessons are there.
- Why don’t you learn Spanish?
Because we learn Polish, English and German
and we haven’t got a Spanish’s teacher. Maybe
you will visit us and you will teach us a few words.
-How many terms do you have? Two.
Thank you for your answers.
