Sister Suffragette is about the Women's Social and Political Union that was formed in London in 1906 in order to give women the chance to be heard, particularly in the form of political votes. The group was formed to rally for suffrage, the right to vote, for women in the UK and all the members were called suffragettes.

Since Mary Poppins takes place around this time it is perfectly logical for Mrs. Banks to be active in this group and having her sing this song at the beginning of the film shows that she is more interested in being a suffragette than being a mother for her children.

Sister Suffragette (Mary Poppins, 1964)
We're clearly soldiers in petticoats

And dauntless crusaders for woman's votes
Though we adore men individually
We agree that as a group they're rather stupid!
Cast off the shackles of yesterday!
Shoulder to shoulder into the fray! 
Our daughters' daughters will adore us
And they'll sign in grateful chorus
'Well done, Sister Suffragette!'
From Kensington to Billingsgate 
One hears the restless cries!
From every corner of the land:
'Womankind, arise!'
Political equality and equal rights with men!
Take heart! For Missus Pankhurst has been clapped in irons again!
No more the meek and mild subservients we!
We're fighting for our rights, militantly!
Never you  fear!
So, cast off the shackles of yesterday!
Shoulder to shoulder into the fray!
Our daughters' daughters will adore us
And they'll sign in grateful chorus
'Well done! Well done! 
Well done Sister Suffragette!'

Being Francisco de Goya

Autorretrato de Francisco de Goya, 1815

Being Francisco de Goya es una actividad para relacionar los contenidos trabajados en clase sobre el primer cuarto del siglo XIX español con la obra de Francisco de Goya.

Después de leer el texto entregado por la profesora (un capítulo del libro El vuelo de la razón (Goya, pintor de la libertad) de Vicente Muñoz Puelles (Madrid, Anaya, 2009), los alumnos deben revisar las obras de Goya indicadas por la profesora y realizar un trabajo creativo y original en el que combinen todos estos elementos imaginando que están dentro de la mente del pintor cuando éste proyecta, realiza y reflexiona sobre su trabajo. Al estilo de la película Being John Malkovich (Spike Jonze, 1999), deben intentar ponerse en el lugar de Goya, hacerse con sus ideas, sentimientos y avatares, y plasmar esta experiencia en una lámina, collage o maqueta -reflejando su forma de pensar, pintar y ver la España de principios del siglo XIX.

Plazo de entrega: 4ºA y 4ºB 24 de noviembre; 4ºC 3 de diciembre

Consultas durante el recreo en el Departamento de Geografía e Historia o en la Sala de Profesores
