READING CLUB (9th meeting) - Croatian legends, 26.1.2023.

If you visit the capital of Croatia, Zagreb, and hear a cannon shot at noon, you might be scared. But there is no reason for that. The firing of a cannon from Grič Hill at noon reminds everyone of how, thanks to a cannon, the people of Zagreb got rid of the Ottoman danger several centuries ago.

The story about the cannon from Grič was read by student Martina Nikić (1st grade, seller) at the meeting of the Readers' Club.

READING CLUB (9th meeting) - Croatian legends

At the ninth meeting of our school's Reading Club, which is being led by mentor librarian Svjetlana Dupan for the second school year, the Club also got involved in the activities of the eTwinning project Fairytales of Jankovac, which is a part of the C.A.L.L. project from October 2022 until the end of January.

The topic of the meeting was Croatian legends. At the beginning of the meeting, the students read aloud legends from different parts of Croatia, such as the legend about the origin of the Klek mountain, the stone wedding ceremony from Susedgrad, which inspired the famous August Šenou in the creation of the work Kameni svatovi, and the legend of the Gričke top. In the conversation, they noticed real and unreal motifs, expressed their impressions of the texts, and noticed similarities with some other famous Croatian legends (and, as we saw yesterday, Macedonian legends, too).

In the final part of the meeting, the students illustrated a legend of their choice, and the most successful works will be a part of the calendar for 2023, which is one of the final products of the eTwinning project Fairytales of Jankovac.

Preparations for mobility to North Macedonia also began with the activities of our school's Reading Club. The tenth meeting was dedicated to contemporary Macedonian literature.

All mobility participants (Lea, Sara, Lana, Adrian, and Ante) gathered in the school library and in the manner of a "speed date" evaluated individual titles according to the offered list, the items of which are the first impression, the appearance of the cover, annotation (description on the back cover), the first page (a few sentences), on the basis of which the members gave the book a "final evaluation".

READING CLUB - 11th meeting - NOVEL AND DRAMA

The topic of the eleventh meeting of our school's Reader's Club, held in March, whose members have been brought together for the second school year by mentor librarian Svjetlana Dupan, was a comparison of the characteristics of prose and dramatic text. The starting text of the activity was the extremely popular novel for young readers The Fault in Our Stars, based on which the movie of the same name was made.

The members of the club refreshed their knowledge of drama as a literary genre and, at the meeting of the Reader's Club, the students read chapters of the novel The Fault in Our Stars, dramatized excerpts, read their adaptations by role, and commented on their works.

Watch how excerpts from the novel were dramatized by students Frančesko Ivić and Martina Nikić in the video.

CULTURAL PREPARATION FOR THE MOBILITY TO ROMANIA - READERS' CLUB ON THE CONTEMPORARY ROMANIAN LITERATURE, April 28

This meeting was attended by students who will soon travel to Romania on mobility. Through the Speed Date with Romanian Literature workshop at the school library, Gordana, David, Dominik, Filip, Noah, and Tomislav, got to know contemporary Romanian literature. They liked some books more, some less, but none of them left them indifferent.

They concluded that the themes that run through the presented works are very close to Croatian reality because, like the Romanians, we went through the transition from communism to capitalism, and the problems faced by the characters in the books are similar to our everyday life. The greatest interest was awakened by Cosmin Pert's book There is Nothing Left Behind and we recommend it for you to read.

Readers' Club meeting was run by school librarian Svjetlana Dupan.
