FONOMIMIC By: María Fernanda Largo

One of the berchman’s week art activities is phonomimic. It represents many points and the four clubs try hard to win it. This year, they said to all the clubs the phonomimic could be without points, but the people that agree with that were less than the people that not agree so, they decide to remove this option. This year, the people decide 9^th students to 11^th students can participate in the activity

The clubs do their best to improve their points to that day. The phonomimic is in the Wednesday of the week. The clubs leaders are part of the big group of phonomimic, because they have to organize everything on it. If you want to win this activity you have to try hard, be very creative, and of course, know how to dance. But the competition isn`t easy, all clubs contract a choreographer and the participants have to be coordinate.

One of all this big groups have to make an interpretation of the singer of the song (Dress like it, move the mouth like as if he/she is singing, etc). The person(s) that do it need to know all the song, dance and move like if he/she is in a concert and dance coordinate with the entire group. In some cases, the groups dance two songs, or in the first represent a situation, when the second one sounds.

In berchman`s week this 2011 we could see that the groups worked hard in scenery, choreography, wardrobe and other few things. These are the videos of the berchman`s week 2011:  

Dance Marathon and Festival Performers in the Berchmans week have many activities that the students who want participate do. All these activities are Dance marathon and Festival performers. These activities they serve to get points and help to the team win In dance marathon the students who want participate dance with other pair from the same group for example, color red with color red, color blue with color blue, color black with color black, etc. When the students do this activity their classmates accompany the students who participate, the other that not participate encourage the students who participate. This activity help all the students to integrate more with other grades, the students who are more happy are in 11 grade because is the last week that stay en Berchmans.

Before start the dance marathon we need to take into account that the students that want participate have to be good and like dancing, if the students who participate and don’t like dance, this pair Probably extract it rapidly of the contest for not being able to do it and they were taking points from his team, It is bad because the most important idea is that win the team that have more points than the others groups. While he lasts the aid is removing to the pairs that less know to dance, causing so they clear points to them. Despite go out to the contest the students continue to enjoy the activities and with the classmates support team and be happy

The objective of the school with that is to be equal in all the decisions that are going to be accorded, and to let no space for bad interpretations of judge´s expression. The facts that the judges evaluate are not the same in all activities, but in common they have that in all activities they are always attentive about the relation between the clubs, and the relation that has been established between the different members of the same club, because the health treat and the good relationships are one of the most important attitudes that all students need to develop those 4 days, to learn for their whole life.
