All New Tom and Jerry

The new Tom and Jerry film made us smile so much, we decided to create resources for two levels on it. The film mixes animation and live action and stars Chloë-Grace Moretz, whose first task as a wedding planner is to rid a Manhattan hotel of Jerry the mouse before the big day. At A1, pupils will work on a short article, and at A2 they’ll discover the trailer.

100 Years Ago: Northern Ireland Came into Existence

1921 has been described as a year of anniversaries in Northern Ireland, marking 100 years since the partition of Ireland which led to the creation of Northern Ireland. But nobody seems sure which dates to mark or celebrate, or indeed if they should be marked at all. A century after the border was created, and in raised tensions due to the new sea border resulting from the Brexit negotiations, Northern Ireland is having a bit of an identity crisis.

Scottish Independence Back on the Agenda

After elections to the Scottish Parliament, the Scottish National Party has emerged the leading party for the fourth consecutive election, achieving just one seat short of a majority in an electoral system specifically designed not to produce overall majorities. The party of First Minister Nicola Sturgeon had campaigned on the promise of a new independence referendum, dubbed IndyRef2, after the country rejected independence in the 2014 referendum.

Your Students Have More Talent: Masters and Servants

Your students seem particularly inspired by the final task in a sequence from Shine Bright Terminale: File 4 Masters and Servants: writing a diary entry for one of the household of an aristocratic British home. This is the second set of entries we're publishing. In this sequence, in Axe 2 Private Space and Public Space, students considered to what extent private and public spaces are codified by British society. As their final task, they were asked to write the diary entry of a member of a British household as part of an exhibition to be held at Highclere Castle, the setting of Downton Abbey. Here are two really creative entries by pupils at Lycée Français Molière, Zaragoza, Spain. Thank you to Liliana for and Irene for their excellent texts, and Mr Culleton for taking the time to send them to us. The photo above is a clue to Liliana's story: We think Irène is a gothic fiction fan!: Your students have talent, too! We are always happy to celebrate students' work at any class level. If you have examples you would like to share, please send them to us , letting us know about the task pupils were responding to.

Online Talk about "Hamnet" by Maggie O'Farrell

The winner of the 2020 Women's Prize for Fiction, Maggie O'Farrell, is doing a talk at the Irish Cultural Centre, or rather online, for the ICC, on 29 April. She'll be discussing her winning novel, Hamnet , an imagined biography of Shakespeare's son, Hamnet, who died at the age of 11. O'Farrell had been convinced that there was a connection between Hamnet and Hamlet since she studied the play at school and heard that Shakespeare's son with almost the same name had died. She imagined that death in the context of the Plague in the novel, and fleshed out the very little information we have about Shakespeare's wife, Ann Hathaway, to bring her to life. See our article on the Women's Prize for more information. An Evening with Maggie O'Farrell Centre culturel irlandais Thursday 29 April at 8 p.m. This online event is free but you need to sign up to receive the link. The event is in English but coincides with the publication of the French edition of the novel by Belfond. Also available on the CCI's Facebook page , even without a Facebook account.

News of the West

"News of the World" is a not-so-classic Western starring Tom Hanks as a newsreader travelling across the U.S. during a violent and tumultuous period after the American Civil War. In a neat inversion of Indian abduction narratives like John Ford's classic The Searchers, the Confederate veteran here is trying to return a child to her family, but Johanna just wants to return to the tribe she loves.
