Sleepwalking

According to Wikipedia, Sleepwalking, also known as somnambulism, is a sleep disorder belonging to the parasomnia family.^[2] Sleepwalkers arise from the slow wave sleep stage in a state of low consciousness and perform activities that are usually performed during a state of full consciousness. These activities can be as benign as sitting up in bed, walking to the bathroom, and cleaning, or as hazardous as cooking, driving, violent gestures, grabbing at hallucinated objects, or even homicide.

During this week, we are going to analyze this phenomenon, starting with this article from the BBC News Magazine:

Sleep: Your stories of weird sleep behaviour

Usaré esta actividad de la siguiente forma en mi clase de Ampliación de Inglés de 1º de Bachillerato:
- Los alumnos leerán las historias.
- Se discutirá vocabulario desconocido.
- En parejas los alumnos decidirán cual de estas historias les resulta más divertida, increíble o ridícula.
- En parejas los alumnos contarán historias que les hayan sucedido (a ellos, a familiares o a amigos) mientras dormían.
- Cada uno de los miembros de la pareja contará al resto de la clase la historia de su compañero/a (para practicar Reported Speech)
