En Primer año de Secundaria, en Skills de Inglés trabajamos Social Studies, con foco en el mundo de habla inglesa. Dentro de las unidades del curso, estudiamos las diferentes variedades que presenta el inglés, en particular inglés británico y americano. Como manera de ilustrar este punto, vemos la película “Winning London”, en la cual un grupo de liceales norteamericanos participan en la conferencia internacional de Model United Nations (MUN), que en ese año se lleva a cabo en Londres.
La película permite entonces, mostrar a los alumnos las características del MUN, y comenzar a interiorizarse con la forma en la que el Colegio participa de esta instancia, con el objetivo de motivarlos para que eventualmente ellos participen también. El trabajo fue orientado por la Profa. Mercedes Couchet.
Estos comentarios fueron escritos por los alumnos de 1ºE, luego de ver la película.
