PREHISTORY (Unit 12-Science Y5)

Let's start a new topic, as we are used to, we are going to start with a THINKING ROUTINE. We are going to look for CSI (Colour, Symbol, Image). In the following chart you will have to colour, look for a symbol and draw an image about the topic PREHISTORY. 


We will watch this video about general information about prehistory. At the end of it you will have to answer these questions:
  • What are the characteristics of prehistoric hunter?
  • What are the characteristics of HOMO ERECTUS?
  • What are the characteristica NEANTHERTAL?

Paleolithic period.

EVALUATION ABOUT PARTNER'S THE ECONOMY VIDEOS (Unit 11-Science Y5)

With this post we will start with a new way of doing at the class, you are going to evaluate your partner's videos and mind maps following the rubric and answering to this form.



When you finish reading the rubric and you have everything clear about your mind, you can start watching your partner's video and answering the questions to evaluate it. 
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO HAVE CLEAR WHAT YOU HAVE TO LOOK FOR AND WHAT THE CRITERIAS FOR EVALUATION ARE.


You will send your evaluation through this Google Form. 
DON'T FORGET TO CLICK ON SUBMIT AT THE END.
To write the comments, you have to follow this pattern:
  • REDACCIÓN EN KIDBLOG: Tienes … puntos, porque…
  • ORGANIZACIÓN EN EL MIND MAP: Tienes … puntos, porque…
  • ESTRUCTURA DEL TEXTO: Tienes … puntos, porque…
  • ORTOGRAFÍA: Tienes … puntos, porque…
  • TÉCNICA GRAMATICAL Y TIEMPOS VERBALES: Tienes …puntos, porque…
  • VOZ Y RITMO: Tienes …puntos, porque…



VIDEOS ABOUT THE ECONOMY (Unit 11 - Science Y5)

Tengo el placer de presentaros los post publicados por los alumnos de 5ºA en la asignatura de Science.


Estos posts han sido publicados en el blog de aula:


Los alumnos han utilizado la herramienta de la web 2.0 http://popplet.com/ para hacer sus propios diagramas o mapas conceptuales sobre la unidad 11 the economy. 

Después han utilizado sus propios mapas conceptuales para construir un vídeo utilizando la web tool http://www.screencast-o-matic.com/. Ese vídeo es "upload" por ellos mismos a su propio canal de youtube para terminar con todo ello, en su propio blog, construyendo un post dedicado a resumir y entender mejor la unidad.

Más tarde lo han enviado a una asignación por EDMODO nuestra red social.

Aquí, os dejo con cada post hecho por cada alumno.

#BRINGBACKOURGIRLS and REAL MEN DON'T BUY GIRLS

Con motivo del secuestro masivo en Nigeria. El alumnado de 6º de Primaria del Colegio San Gregorio en Aguilar de Campoo hemos querido realizar una rutina de pensamiento para analizar la siguiente noticia:
Movilización mundial para reclamar la liberación de las niñas secuestradas en Nigeria

Por ello hemos visualizado el corto que aparece en la noticia y hemos leído la misma.
Más tarde hemos realizado una rutina de pensamiento durante 4 minutos para analizar la noticia.

I   SEE
I THINK
I WONDER






  

Los alumnos podrán escribir todo lo que quieran de la rutina de pensamiento, pero en especial I WONDER.

¿Te animas?


THE CHRISTIANS KINGDOMS (Unit 12-Science Y6)

We will continue learning about how things happened in the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages.
Remember first were the Visigoths then the peninsula was invaded by the Muslims, and now we are going to learn how the Christians reconquested The Iberian Peninsula.

This video will show you how everything took place.


THE CHRISTIAN KINGDOMS


You could look at the map below, how the reconquest was:

  • The long period of expansion of the Christian kingdoms started only eleven years after the Muslins invasion. It is called RECONQUEST.
  • By around 1230, there were FOUR LARGE KINGDOMS:
    • KINGDOM OF PORTUGAL, it was independent from Leon.
    • KINGDOM OF NAVARRE, Navarra and La Rioja.
    • CROWN OF ARAGON: Catalonia Counties, Kingdom of Aragon, Valencia and Majorca.
    • CROWN OF CASTILE: Includes the Kind of of Castille and the Kindom of Leon. Later it included Al Anlandalus. 
  • In 1479, Isabella I of Castille married Ferdinand II of Aragon, and the Crown of Aragon and the Crown of Castile were united. 
 












MEDIEVAL SOCIETY
There were three groups of people:

  • NOBLES: they were rich and they were the owners of the land.
  • CLERGY: They were monks, bishops and priests.
  • PEASANTS: It was the biggest group, they cultivated the land. 

CULTURAL HERITAGE
  • In the 12th Century were founded the first universities. The first one was the University of Palencia.

  • In the early Middle Ages, churches were built in Romanesque Style: thick walls and small windows. 

  • After the 13th Century, palaces and cathedrals were built in Gothic Style. They had pinted arches and large stained-glass windows. 


LET'S DO THE QUIZ AND REVIEW ALL YOU HAVE LEARNT.
