February is predicted to be a busy month for IB students like myself with no less than three events taking place in BIS. One of the major events planned is Winter/Snow day on 8th February.
Initially, the day was supposed to be organized my year 13 students only but a little bit of negotiation led to me getting a chance to take a direct part in organizing one of the activities. Before Christmas holidays my year group was in process of planning a Winter day but at that time the management of our school did not give us their final permission to organize it.
I have grouped up with Dina Ivanova and Francesco Guerrisi and together we have decided to use one of our previous ideas for pre-Christmas event - story telling. In general, it would involve participants saying something that would continue what was said by a previous person to collaboratively create a story. At this point I can see how this is going to work but I still fear that we do not have too much time to plan such complex activity.
In addition to that I am taking part in co-organization of another event initiated my my classmates - the outside games in the snow. Again, the clock is ticking and I feel the pressure of the deadline.
A couple of days ago all of Yr12s directly involved in organization of Winter Day got together to make a rough plan of our activities. In conclusion we have broken down organizational points so that each person was responsible for a certain aspect of their activity.
Below you can see my personal notes that I have made in preparation for today's meeting.
During the process of preparation for Winter Day, I:
- planned an activity
- worked collaboratively with others
- developed my communicative and organizational skills
