Holly Jane Rahlens – born in New York and now living in Berlin – was here again! To P 5 and S 1/S 2 she read from her science fiction novel “whispering leaves”: Three children from Berlin meet a boy from the future, who takes them accidently into the year 2273. Scary and fascinating at the same time!!

Barbara Steinitz and her beautiful paper-theater fascinated children of first, second and third english classes. She performed the story of Pedro and the blue peaches together with her mexican friend Alejandro in english and spanish.
Afterwards the children had a lot of questions about how paper-figures are done, how the integrated shadow-theater works, how to play a blunt singing saw. And why main character Pedro forgot all about blue peaches when he grew up. They wanted to craft their own paper-theater right away.
