Today, TP1 watched some more Hamilton, but we didn't manage to watch it all.  Those who can watch the rest for homework should do so.  As next class we will be doing in-class preparation for upcoming oral presentations, those who wish to read reviews for Hamilton can do so by accessing these which are available on the shared Google drive or by clicking here:

Next class: we're going to do in-class preparation for the upcoming oral presentations.

Today, TP1 watched the first and absolutely amazing part of Hamilton.  Those who missed today's class can find the link to see the show online (no account needed) and catch up with us.

Field Trip: this Saturday, we're going to meet at Gulbenkian at 15h00 to see three different pieces:

Next class: we're going to watch more of it.  Because it's amazing.

Today, TP1 read Mojo's review for Michael Kiwanuka's recent and long-awaited release: Small Changes.

Students who missed today's class can - and should - read the article available here (especially if they want to see how technical language can enhance a review for a specialist publication such as Mojo):

If, however, students are interested in seeing just how short a review can be, they should read The Guardian's 5-star review on the same album which can be found here:

Next class: Musical Theatre - the much acclaimed Hamilton.

Today, the teacher presented the instructions on how to prepare for the end-of-semester oral presentation.  These instructions can be found on the shared Google drive in the file labelled 'Oral Review' which is, in turn, in the file labelled 'Model Review'.  Pupils who missed today's class should go through the PowerPoint first (Rules & Instructions for Your Oral Presentations); following this, they should go through the model PPT and watch the video where I do my oral review.  (I expect yours to be way better than mine!)

Today, TP1 listened to Michael Kiwanuka's recent release Small Changes.

Next class: Modelling the oral presentation - and if there's time, we'll read some reviews on Kiwanuka's recent album.
