			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Analizând cărţile dintr-o librărie mai zilele trecute, mi-am adus aminte de una dintre cărţile care mi-au plăcut foarte mult în şcoală,  <em>Împăratul Muştelor</em>, a lui William Golding. Nu ştiu dacă aţi citit-o sau nu, dar m-am gândit să vă spun azi câteva cuvinte despre ea şi mai ales să vă împărtăşesc din bucuria re-lecturii ei.<a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/girl_or_child_reading_a_book.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-4878" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/girl_or_child_reading_a_book-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="115" height="115" /></a></p>
<p>Pe de altă parte, nu demult, am observat că elevii noştri de CAE o au în bibliografia pentru examenul din vara aceasta, la partea de Writing, alături de <em>The Lighthouse</em>, a lui P.D. James, aşa că articolul acesta este scris şi cu gândul la ei. J</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/LordOfTheFlies-430x286.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-4877" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/LordOfTheFlies-430x286-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>Înainte de a vă spune despre ce este vorba în carte şi de ce îmi place, trebuie să vă menţionez că autorul, William Golding, este câştigător al unui premiu Nobel pentru literatură, iar romanul a fost plasat în lista celor mai bune romane ale secolului trecut. Deşi aparent simplistă, acţiunea romanului se bazează pe aventurile unor băieţi de 13 ani, unicii supravieţuitori ai unui accident de avion. Fiind singuri pe o insulă, ei încearcă să se organizeze, unii fiind responsabili cu vânătoarea şi mâncarea, alţii cu construirea unui adăpost, iar alţii cu menţinerea focului permanent aprins pentru a putea fi observaţi de posibilele vase care traversează marea. Însă, lucrurile iau o turnură total diferită, când în cadrul tribului lor apare sentimentul de pericol, aşa numita „fiară” care se presupune că există pe insulă. Din acest moment, societatea pe care ei au construit-o pe modelul celei civilizate din care au plecat, începe să se autodistrugă, şi până şi cei doi raţionali din grup, Ralph şi Piggy, cedează în faţa instinctelor şi a simţurilor primare.</p>
<p>Romanul este în realitate o alegorie adresată tendinţei umane de a reveni la formele primare de manifestare, instinctele, atunci când condiţiile de viaţă devin limitate: izolarea, lipsa hranei, lipsa reperelor temporale şi comunicaţionale. Totul în roman ne duce cu gândul la omul preistoric, guvernat de dorinţa de a conduce şi a se hrăni.<a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/read-my-book.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-4879" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/read-my-book-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>Cartea este fascinantă cu o acţiune laborios construită, în spatele căreia se ascunde o dramă a fiinţei umane. V-o recomand nu ca pe o lectură de şcoală, ci ca pe una de plăcere.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="text-decoration: underline"><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Stress-11.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-4870" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Stress-11-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>Dear teens, </span></p>
<p>Those of you who are already taking <strong><a href="http://www.examenelimbaengleza.ro/cambridge/fce">this course</a></strong> know that it’s no piece of cake to deal with the course requirements!</p>
<p>You probably know by now that the <strong>FCE</strong> exam ( standing for <strong><em>First Certificate in English</em></strong>) comprises  of five papers :</p>
<ul>
<li><em><strong>Reading</strong></em> (<em>60 minutes)</em></li>
<li><em><strong>Writing</strong></em> (<em>80 minutes)</em><strong> </strong></li>
<li><em><strong>Use of English</strong></em> (<em>45 minutes)</em><strong> </strong></li>
<li><em><strong>Listening</strong></em> (<em>40 minutes)</em></li>
<li><em><strong>Speaking</strong></em> (<em>15 minutes) </em>&#8230;that this exam can be both <strong>paper-based</strong> or <strong>computer-based</strong> and the scores  can be A, B, C (pass), D, E or U (fail) or that it can grant recognition of<span style="text-decoration: underline"> <a href="http://www.coe.int/t/DG4/Portfolio/?M=/main_pages/levels.html">B2</a></span> / Upper intermediate level.</li>
</ul>
<p>But how many of you are aware of the fact that this exam tests not your knowledge of the English language but also a series of cognitive skills that you are expected to develop during the exam preparation?</p>
<p>Well&#8230;in much simpler terms in order to pass this exam you have to prove two things: that you’re smart and that you are &#8230;quite mature!  What I mean by this is that you should approach this exam like a grown-up and not hoping that if you don’t solve homework or skip classes no one will notice!</p>
<p>Before sitting this exam you will have to prove that you can be an <strong><em>effective autonomous learner.</em></strong> A fancy term, indeed, which actually comes down to a simple and quite ‘commonsenseical’ <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">TO DO – List</span></strong> :</p>
<ul>
<li> <strong>Accept the responsibility of taking the FCE</strong></li>
<li> <strong>Become familiar with the expectations of the exam</strong></li>
<li> <strong>Do a great deal of homework</strong></li>
<li> <strong>Revise constantly</strong></li>
<li> <strong>Make effective use of course materials (such as the course book and practice exams)</strong></li>
<li> <strong>Develop the exam skills required by each part of the exam</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Good Luck in all your exams and remember!</p>
<p>&#8230; <strong><em>For every disciplined effort there is a multiple reward </em></strong>(Jim Rohn).</p>

<p><strong>Tabara Brainy Camp a reprezentat o experienta superba, de 6 zile, in care inteligenta emotionala aplicata, schiul si buna dispozitie au facut casa buna impreuna.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>-          <strong>6 zile in care prietenia ne-a insotit peste tot ;</strong></p>
<p><strong>-    6 zile in care cu totii am regasit : respectarea regulilor, lucrul in echipa, politetea,  prietenia, autocunoasterea,  faptul de a  renunta sa parasti colegii, sa inveti sa pierzi fara sa te superi, intelegerea ca nu este potrivit vorbitul urat cu ceilalti precum si vorbitul neintrebat, importanta vorbitului pe rand, aplicarea bunelor maniere acasa si<br />

<div>Well, it’s about having fun speaking English! Children get to develop   their fluency in English and gain confidence as they participate in tons of   interactive activities that challenge them.  The Conversation Club also prepares   children to sit for their Trinity Initial Stage, YLE and PET Speaking Exams in   a very dynamic atmosphere. In a nutshell, children come once a fortnight and   practise what they’ve learned in class without going through boring drills.</div>
<div><br class="spacer_" /></div>
<div><strong>What will the children learn   by the end of this school year? </strong></div>
<div><br class="spacer_" /></div>
<div>
<p>They will learn how to:</p>

<li>Talk about themselves, their family and friends.</li>
<li>Talk about animals and pets e.g. what their favourite animal is, describe their pet etc.</li>
<li>Talk about food and their favourite dishes.</li>
<li>Talk about the weather and the seasons of the year.</li>
<li>Talk about daily routines, chores and hobbies.</li>
<li>Party at Halloween e.g. what Halloween is all about with its characters and games.</li>
<li>Talk about sports e.g. what their favourite sport is, what the famous national and international sports are etc.</li>
<li>Talk about jobs e.g. what they would like to be when they grow up, what their parents do etc.</li>
<li>Have an English Christmas Party e.g. talk about food, decorations and what they do during Christmas etc.</li>
<li>Talk about their homes and local areas e.g. describe their homes, neighbourhood etc.</li>
<li>Talk about travelling e.g. what their favourite places to visit are, ask and follow directions etc.</li>

<li>Talk about holidays e.g. their favourite holiday destination and experience.</li>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
</ol>
</div>
<div>Our classes are multi-skill classes that incorporate other skills   besides speaking such as listening, reading and drawing. We guarantee a good   time for all English-loving children!</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/10848835-christmas-gifts.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-4778" title="10848835-christmas-gifts" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/10848835-christmas-gifts-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a><span style="color: #000000;">Anna is a 15-year old student; she lives in Romania and loves Christmas. And English. She sent a letter to Santa, earlier this year, to kindly ask him to answer a few questions in an interview. And Surprise! Surprise! Santa found the time to talk to her, right before the big night, when he’s always <em>on call</em>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Anna: <span style="color: #000000;">Dear Santa, it’s a miracle to have you with us this holiday season, as it is to have you each season. And I am particularly happy you could find time to speak to me tonight, I know your workshop is on fire and the elves are working hard to finish all the toys before Christmas Eve. </span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Santa:</span> <span style="color: #000000;">It’s a pleasure to meet you, always happy to talk to children who trust in the spirit of Christmas. So, what did you want to ask me?</span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Anna:</span> Santa, I hardly have time to do my homework and read a few books, how come you have time to read letters from children all over the world?</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Santa:</span> Well, that is part of the miracle of Holiday Season. I get the letters, but then I know all the children anyways, so I know who has been good and who hasn’t… Do you think I rest, the rest of the year? No, I’m always on duty… I go to their windows and watch, on invisible mode, of course. And a few days before Christmas all I do is finish up my “revision” exercises, to use your language…</p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Rudolph.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-4783" title="Rudolph" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Rudolph-e1324648541165.jpg" alt="" width="95" height="150" /></a>Anna: </span>And how come you are able to make it in time and get to every single child?</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Santa:</span> Well, I have my faithful nine reindeer. All nine of them are magic. I would not be able to make it otherwise… I used to have a lot of accidents and crash into trees, right before meeting Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. He’s the one who guides me through the darkness.</p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Anna:</span> What impresses you most in the letters?</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Santa:</span> What I find amazing is that there are children, who do not want toys; they want a brother and sister… or they want world peace… It makes me sad that unfortunately, I cannot always fulfil their dream, because it’s not always up to me. All I do is try to help them understand the miracles in their lives and the strength to carry on. And maybe, one day, they will dream I am giving them an encouragement hug. I just wish they kept the Christmas Spirit in their hearts as they turned into adults&#8230;.</p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Anna:</span> What is the most important thing that people should remember about Christmas?</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><br />
 <a href="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/13SnowmanMerryChristmas.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-4790 alignleft" title="13SnowmanMerryChristmas" src="http://blog.shakespeare-school.ro/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/13SnowmanMerryChristmas-300x294.png" alt="" width="300" height="294" /></a>Santa:</span> I believe there is a miracle in each of us. We all carry a Divine sparkle, the Holy Ghost exist in every single one of us. Christmas is magic because it is the time we should all be grateful for what we’ve got and pay it forward. It is a time to forgive and forget, and be joyful for the gift of life, just like God gave us His Only Son, as a present to humanity, on the 25<sup>th</sup> of December. But to tell you the truth, Christmas should be all year round, we should have the same attitude at all times.</p>
<p>Thank you Santa, may you always be as joyful as you are right now. I will leave you know carry on your amazing duties.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Santa:</span> <strong>Ho! Ho! Ho! Be good now! And Meeeerry Christmas everyone!!!</strong></p>

<p style="text-align: left">Students who have enrolled this year in the Trinity 6 and Preview to FCE courses at Shakespeare School get to benefit from a speaking class, and that is the Speaking Maximizer! The Speaking Maximizer classes are held once every four weeks  in the Dorobanti branch of Shakespeare School.</p>
<p style="text-align: left"><strong>What do the students actually do in these monthly classes?</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>
<div style="text-align: left">They learn to speak English fluently and  confidently.</div>
</li>
<li>They participate in many fun speaking activities that incorporate the grammar and vocabulary they have learned in their regular classes. </li>
<li>They prepare for their upcoming oral  examinations (see below for more details).</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>How do the Speaking Maximizer classes help the <span style="text-decoration: underline">Trinity 6</span> students prepare for their Speaking Examination?</strong></p>
<p>The syllabus for the Trinity 6 Speaking Maximizer course has been designed to prepare them for the 2 parts in their Trinity 6 Speaking Examination which are:</p>
<ol>
<li> A discussion of a topic of their choice.</li>
<li>A conversation on 2 subject areas selected by the examiner. </li>
</ol>
<p>Thus, the Trinity 6 students will learn how to do the following by the end of this school year:</p>
<ol>
<li> Give a successful oral presentation on a topic of their choice.</li>
<li>Have a conversation on the following conversational topics:
<ol> a) Travel</ol>
<ol>b) Money </ol>
<ol>c) Fashion </ol>
<ol>d) Rules and regulations</ol>
<ol>e) Health and fitness</ol>
<ol>f) Learning a foreign language </ol>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Desi temperaturile si vremea de afara nu sunt cele obisnuite pentru acest moment al anului, la Shakespeare School , spiritul Craciunului isi face deja simtita prezenta. Anul acesta nu doar vremea de afara este ALTFEL ci si serbarile noastre.Petrecerile  de Craciun in toi in aceasta perioada,  au devenit pentru noi un prilej al dialogului deschis in sala de curs!</p>
<p>Mai precis, am transformat serbarile de Craciun intr-o perioada a portilor deschise, intr-un prilej de a ne intalni cursanti-parinti-profesori  si de a ne petrece impreuna o sedinta de curs!   Iar surprizele s-au tinut lant: colinde si piese de Craciun in limba engleza, cadouri, poze, voie buna si jocuri interactive la care copiii au participat alaturi de parinti!</p>
<p>In plus, impreuna cu editura Fischer International, am organizat expozitii, cu vanzare, de carti atat in limba romana cat si engleza. Si pentru ca tot pomeneam  surprizele oferite cursantilor, prin cumpararea de carti, copiii participa automat la tombola festiva ce le poate aduce un cadou in plus cu ocazia sarbatorilor de iarna!</p>
<p>La Shakespeare School surprizele nu se termina niciodata asa ca ramaneti alaturi de noi si in 2012!</p>
<p>Sarbatori de iarna fericite si un an nou plin de impliniri!</p>
