Media and Broadcasting:

Taibhse sa teach ag caoineadh Tá an arán

Broadcasting is sending a message through audio recording or a visual recording to an audience, for example, radio and TV. Media is communicating a message to deliver information, for example, radio/TV or through flyers and advertising.

The Eurovision Song Contest is usually broadcast to an audience of between 100million and 600million and is even broadcast to countries that do not compete in the contest.

Task:

You are working for a media and broadcasting company and you are advertising the Eurovision Song Contest. You can either:

Option 1: Prepare a 2 minute radio report on the topic.

OR

Option 2: Write a flyer/handout with information about the Eurovision Song Contest.

Art:

Our good friend Larry O’Neill might be best known for property development and architecture, but did you also know that he has a keen eye for fashion and has been involved with designers all over Europe in creating eye catching costumes for the Eurovision song contest.

Here is a sample of what he has created.

Larry’s top tips for creating the perfect outfit for stage:

You can draw your design out (example below) or you can actually try to make it from old clothes or recyclable materials. (Don’t forget to ask permission before you alter any clothes in your house!)

Clothes on stage must be extra eye-catching as there will be lots of

lights. Try to use lots of colour. Try to use anything that reflects light, for example, glitter or shimmery

materials such as tin foil or wrappings from Easter eggs. To make your performer stand out on stage you can make the outfit as

large as you like. The outfit does not have to be functional. That means, you do not need

to think about the performer sitting down or eating their dinner. This outfit is only meant to catch people’s eye when the performer is on stage. It does not have to be comfortable.

A good idea is to think about the song you have written for your performer. If it is a song about the sea, for instance, you could dress the person in a large shell and octopus tentacles with a starfish hat!

The crazier the better! Have fun!

SESE:

The European UnionThe European Union (EU) is a partnership between certain countries. It was created over 50 years ago. Since then, it has grown from having six to 27 members. Today, over 500 million people live within the EU. The EU has its own parliament, made up of ministers from every EU country. The EU also has its own laws that all member countries abide by. It operates as a single market, which means that people, products and services can move freely between EU countries.

History of the EUAfter the Second World Ear, European leaders were searching for ways to prevent future wars in Europe. A Frenchman called Jean Monnet came up with a very original idea, Monnet thought that if people from various European countries came together to manage the coal and steel industry in Europe, it would be impossible for a country to manufacture guns or tanks in secret.

A French Minister called Robert Schuman thought the idea was brilliant. In 1951, he convinced leaders from France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg and the Netherlands to combine their coal and steel industries. In 1957 these six countries expanded beyond shared industry and formed the European Economic Community (EEC). The EEC created a policy that improved farming, they also tried to make the import and export of goods more efficient. Between 1973 and 1986 six more countries joined, including Ireland, who joined in 1973. In 1992 as countries became more and more united, the EEC changed its name to the European Union. The United Kingdom stopped being a member of the European Union on 31st January 2020.

The EU TodayIn the two decades that have passed since the EEC became the EU, 15 more countries have joined, bringing the total to 27. Seventeen EU countries, including Ireland, use a common currency called the euro. The euro enables people to travel around Europe without having to change currencies. Countries that use the euro as their official currency are collectively called the 'Eurozone.'

CHECKPOINT1. Name the six countries that first formed the EEC.2. Why are some EU countries said to be part of the 'Eurozone?'3. What year did Ireland join the EU? Map Work (use map above): 4. Switzerland is not in the European Union. However it has EU countries on every border. Name four countries that border Switzerland.5. It takes approximately 27 hours to drive from Spain to Poland (a very long time!). Name the one country I must travel though on my journey.6. Which country is shaped like a boot?
