Really? I felt just like your secretary. Sorry, I went into the library this afternoon to have a look at a newspaper and I came across something really interesting. What? A book? No. a brochure from a summer festival, mainly Spanish music. Look, I’ve got it here. Spanish music? I really love the guitar. Let’s have a look. So what’s this group guitarrini They’re really good. There had a video with all the highlights of the festival at a stand in the lobby to the library, so I heard them. They play fantastic instruments, drum and flutes and old kinds of guitars. I’ve never heard anything like it before. Sounds great Ok, shall we go then, spoil ourselves Yes, let’s The only problem is there aren’t any cheap seats. It’s all one price Well, in that case, we could sit right at the front, we’d have a really good view. Yeah, though I think that if you sit at the back, you can actually hear the whole thing better. Yes, anyway, we can decide when we get there.

But we can go to the Spanish dancing and guitar concert together, can’t we? Yes, I’m sure tom and kerry would enjoy that too. Good heavens, a ticket. I can see we’re going to have to go without food for the rest of the week. We’ll need to book 4 Wish we were students. Look, children, students and senior citizens get a 50% discount on everything If only Section 2 Hello, and thank you for asking me to your teachers’ meeting to talk about the dinosaur museum and to tell you a bit about what you can do with your students there. Well let me give you some of the basic information first. In regard to opening hours, we are open everyday of the week from 9 am to 8 pm except on Mondays when we close at pm. And in fact the only day in the year when we’re closed is on the 25th of December. You can book a guided tour for your school group any time that we’re open. If you bring a school group to the museum, when you arrive we ask you to remain with your group in the car park, one or more of the tour guides with wele you there and brief you about what the tour will be about. We do this there because our entrance is quite small and we really haven’t got much room for briefing groups in the exhibition area. As far as the amount of the time you’ll need goes, if you bring a school group you should plan on allowing a minimum of 90 minutes for the visit, this allows 15 minutes to get on and off the coach, 45 minutes for the guided tour and 30 minutes for aftertour activities. If you’re going to have lunch in the museum, you will of course have to allow more time. There are 2 cafes in the museum with seating for 80 people. If you want to eat there, you will need to reserve some seating as they can get quite crowded at lunch time. Then outside the museum at the back, there are tables and students can bring their own lunch and eat it there in the open air. When the students e into the museum foyer, we ask them to check in their backpacks with their books, lunch boxes etc, at the cloakroom before they enter the museum proper. I’m afraid in the past we have had a few things gone missing after school visit, so this is a strict rule. Also some of the exhibits are fragile and we don’t them to be accidentally knocked. We do provide school students with handouts with questions and quizzes on them. There is so much that students can learn in the museum and it’s fun for them to have something to do. Of course they’ll need to bring something to write with for these. We do allow students to take photographs, for students who are doing projects, it’s useful to make some kind of visual record of what they see that they can add to their reports. And finally, they should not bring anything to eat into the museum or drinks of any kind. There are also a few things the students can do after the tour. In the theatrette on the ground floor, there are continuous screenings of short documentaries about dinosaurs which they can see at any time. We used to have an activity room with more interactive things like making models of dinosaurs and drawing and painting pictures, even hunting for dinosaur eggs, but unfortunately the room was damaged in a bad storm recently when water came in the roof, so that’s closed at the moment. But we do have an IT center where students have access to CDroms with a range of dinosaur games. These games are a lot of fun but they also teach the students about the lives of dinosaurs, how they found food, protected their habitats, survived threats, that kind of thing. And I think that’s all I have to tell you, please feel
