Off to your room

INTRODUCTION

Hi! My name is Vincent Malloy and I'm seven years old. I'm a bit shy and I don't usually talk with people although I like to experiment, and human beings and animals are my best objects.
Well, once I've described a bit I would ask you for help. I've been punished and I'm in my room, but everything I can remember is that I was very excited and I did and said these moves and sentences, but I don't know the order of those scenes. Could you help me?


TASK



Here we go! The images and the sentences are the following ones:


A) He doesn't mind living with his sister dog and cats.

B) But he prefers to share a home with spiders and bats.

C) Vincent is nice when his aunt comes to see him.

D) But imagines dipping her in wax for his wax museum.

E) He likes to experiment on his dog Abercrombie, in the hopes of creating a horrible zombie.

F) So Vincent and his zombie dog search victims in the London's fog.

G) He likes to paint and read to pass some of the times.

H) One night, he read a passage that made him tum pale, his beautiful wife had been buried alive!

I) He dug to make sure she was dead.

J) But it wasn't his wife, it was his mother's flower bed.

K) His mother sent Vincent off to his room, alone with the portrait of his beautiful wife.

L) Vincent's mum: "These games are all in your head, you are not tormented or insane, you are just a young boy. I want to get outside and have some real fun".

Thanks for your help but what I really want from you is your company. Everything you must do to stay with me is to guess some answers and just to have fun with me.


PROCESS

EJERCICIO 1: As I said before, I'm punished in my room but my mum lets me CHOOSE 3 THINGS of this list to spend the time in here:

9.- The parchis table game.
10.- 4 amazing books.
11.- 15 wonderful DVD films.
12.- Loved ones pictures.
13.- Much paper and crayons.

Okey, thank you for helping me again, I liked all of those things but I couldn't decide which ones were my favourites.



EJERCICIO 2: I have enough things to have fun but I'm bored. My mum has left me a message before go to the street, but I could understand it properly. I want you inside, could you tell me what the message of my mother was?


The words are:
A) DOGma
B) cRATer
C) PIGment
D) COWard
E) ...





EJERCICIO 3: Got it! We are all together. I have cards in my room and I know a game. Would you want to play? The rules are:

THERE ARE 4 WOLFMEN ( One for each AS ) They choose, in silence, a person to kill.
THERE IS A MAYOR ( The King of Gold ) He has 2 votes to decide who die.
The rest of cards are the people ( Baker, butcher, footballer, architect... ) Each person has a vote to decide who die. They have to kill all the wolfmen before the death of all of them.

The story is:

Imagine that we live in a little town Miranda de Ebro. Few days ago, we found a problem when night came because there were some wolfmen who kill one person each night and they live yet.
In the morning neighbors gather to decide who of them is a wolfman, so they vote one person to die in order to put an end the wolfmen, and During the night wolfmen get together to decide who is going to die. The winner is the part of neighbors that get to survive, people or wolfmen.




EJERCICIO 4: Would you like to play more? Well, it's a bit late, so this is going to be the last game. The rules are:

People are in a circle. A couple, who are elephants, will stay in the middle of the circle and the rest of the people are sitting down on chairs.
Each couple must choose an animal and elephants will walk around the circle saying animal names, Tigers! Dogs!... when an animal is guess, the couple walk around the circle with the elephants, doing their characteristic move.
When elephants couldn't guess more animals, they will say "lions" and everybody must choose chairs, if they are walking or change their chair if their animal hasn't been called.
