Implementing PBL at Gimnasio Superior School part II

National History Museum

This time, ninth-graders showed their talent when representing their own cultural museum. What they did was to set a scene in which Colombia’s most important events were shown to the public. They started from the 1900’s up to date. The students tried to explain how these events changed our history: The thousand days war, the massacres in “Las Bananeras”, the Medellin Cartel, the so-called Bogotazo and some others. The sightseeing tour required hard-working rehearsals and pronunciation practice just to show to the school, how important is to know our history. Also, they could learn a foreign language in a different way when mainstreaming social studies and business subjects. Check out some photos of this museum!
