Job shadowing 

Bremen

 Wednesday 31st of August

This school is called “Integrierte Gesamtschule met gymnasialer Oberstufe", that means that is a school for all types of students - from the ones wanting to learn a more practical profession to the ones wanting to go to university). 

That’s why depending on the level of the students in the different subjects they are suggested to take a higher or a lower level. A students can be for example very good in English and take an E level, but his/her level in another subject may be poor and, therefore, join a G level (Grundkurs).

The building and its surroundings are great. Everything is open, which makes me think that maybe our students feel themselves more in a prison than in a welcoming place. I took just some photos of the surroundings.

Afternoon: Künstlerdorf 

Trip to Worpswede

Worpswede is what is called a “Künstlerdorf”. It is an old village with very beautiful houses and farms where many artists have decided to live and set up their studios there. It is quite touristic and there are cafés to have coffee and a piece of cake.
