SOCIAL SCIENCE: THE EARLY MODERN PERIOD

SOCIAL SCIENCE: THE EARLY MODERN PERIOD

In Unit 8 we have studied the Early Modern Period and, as you must know, our fifth grade students have been working and learning in groups in a very challenging and interesting project. The final step was to do an oral presentation in class and they all did it with lot of motivation and enthusiasm.

NATURAL SCIENCE: GLOBAL WARMING

NATURAL SCIENCE: GLOBAL WARMING
In Unit 9 we are studying Energy, People and Machines. We have already learnt that the more we pollute, the higher is the average temperature of the Earth but.... Why? Why is POLLUTION related to GLOBAL WARMING? Some reasons are explained in this video, which may look like a little bit childish but contains very important information for all of us. Let's watch it!






So, What can we do to REDUCE GLOBAL WARMING? This video suggests the following steps:
                    -Plant more trees
                             -Reduce, recycle and reuse
                                      -Use less hot water
                                                -Turn off electronic devices when not in use
                                                             -Spread awareness

SOCIAL SCIENCE: THE MIDDLE AGES


 SOCIAL SCIENCE: THE MIDDLE AGES
The Middle Ages began in 476 AD with the fall of the Roman Empire and ended in 1492 AD with the Discovery of America.
As we have learnt, through all those years the territories has changed a lot. Here we have some of the images we have used in class to understand better the evolution of the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages.

NATURAL SCIENCE: ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT


NATURAL SCIENCE: ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT



In Natural Science (Unit 7) we studied our Ecological Footprint which is how much of the planet we use to live.








Now we are reviewing that topic with this fabulous documentary from National Geographic: 
THE HUMAN FOOTPRINT.

 
We have seen most of it in class and discussed about some of the issues it proposses. We think it is really interesting to reflex about questions such as 
"How can we protect our planet?"
 "What can we do as individuals?"

ARTS AND CRAFTS: JUNK MODELS
Last term we were submerged in a very challenging project. We had to use recyclable materials to create some nice models. There were a huge variety of  them: castles, cities, houses, robots... It took us many classes to finish our works and now we are very proud of them. Here you can see some of them!
