A HISTORY MAGAZINE (History-Science Y6)

You are going to become a history journalist!!!


After a term full of history lessons. We are going to investigate about the history of our area, publish an article and create a History Magazine in the class.

The article will have five parts:
  • Title (It should be atractive, not just the name of the History period)
  • Historical context of the period, some short information talking about history.
  • Documentary about this period. (It should be an storytelling about daily life in this historical period)
  • Brief summary about what happened in our area (Aguilar de Campoo)
  • The authors and from which websites or books you took the information (the bibliography).
As we have done in all the tasks it is very important to follow the process and the following steps:

1. We will divide the class into 9 groups (most of them will be pairs and some will be threes)
      • Prehistory. 
      • Preroman times.
      • Roman Times
      • Visigothics.
      • Muslims.
      • Christian Kingdoms.
      • Catholic Monarchs and XVI century.
      • XVIII Century.
      • XIX Century.
2. Let's review all the history posts to look for information about your history period. 

3. Write a short summary for the HISTORICAL CONTEXT  with the important facts.

4. CREATE a documentary or "storytelling" about life in the historical period:
5. With the following links INVESTIGATE and WRITE a paragraph about this historical period in our area of Aguilar de Campoo. 
6. You will create your article for the Magazine. We are going to use a new app to  create it:


This video will help you to know how to deal with it: 
(It was done by @jferna35)



Your teacher will say to you what page of the magazine you have to do and also the username and the password to enter in your class magazine.

7. Each member of the group will write a post in the kidblog as it was a page of the magazine. And send it to the teacher through the EDMODO. 

8. EVALUATION:
  • The final score will be up to 100 points.
  • 50 points will be given by the teachers. (Using the rubric)
  • 28 will be given by self-evaluation. (Using the rubric, it is done individually)
  • 22 will be given to each member of the team. (Give out maximum 22 points to each member of the group)

  • You are going to create a paper as draft. You have to include:
    • Your name and members of your group.
    • Your self-evaluation with the rubric. (Maximum 28 points)
    • Your team member's points. (Maximun 22 points)

    HERE YOU HAVE THE RUBRIC

VIDEOS about PREHISTORY & ANTIQUITY (Unit 11-Science Y6)

Tengo el placer de presentaros los post publicados por los alumnos de 6ºB 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 PREHISTORY & ANTIQUITY. 

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.

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 popplets 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.

PREHISTORY (Unit 11 -Science Y6)

We are going to learn about another topic of Science, from this moment to the end of the school year we are going to focus our lesson on the HISTORY OF SPAIN. To learn history is very important because this will be the way you will understand most of the things that are taking place now.

LET'S HAVE A LOOK TO THESE PHOTOS AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS:






  • What can you see in the two pictures?
  • What are these things made of?
  • Which ones were made first?
THE FOLLOWING VIDEO WILL HELP YOU TO UNDERSTAND THE LIFE IN THE PREHISTORY PERIOD. 



PALEOLITHIC PERIOD:


  • Million years ago, Iberian Peninsula was inhabited by homids or early humans beings. Modern people appeared in Spain about 35.000 years ago.
  • They were nomads, they moved from place to place.

  • They lived in caves or huts.



  • They lived in family groups called clans.
  • They obtained their food hunting, fishing and gathering plants. 
NEOLITIC PERIOD:


  • People became sedentary. They built settlements.
  • People lived in tribes, they were larger than clans. 
  • Each member of the tribe had a specific job  (cultivating the land, looking after animals, making tools or weapons)
THE METAL AGES:

  • They used metals for weapons and tools.
  • Settlements became villages, with walls for protections.
  • Every village was run by a chieftain
PREHISTORY HERITAGE:
Prehistory people were the first:
  • To use fires to cook and protect themselves from the cold.
  • To make clay pots.
  • To use animal hair and looms to make cloths.
  • Create art forms such as cave paintings
LET'S REVIEW WHAT YOU HAVE LEARNT WITH THIS ACTIVITY. 




If you want to learn a bit more about PREHISTORY, you will play to this game about PREHISTORY ANIMALS.

    Prehistory & Antiquity (Science 5th)

    OUR TIME LINE TO UNIT 11 PREHISTORY & ANTIQUITY

    In these last units we will not do the popplets or the presentation in power points, we will use the web tool DIPITY to make our timeline. 

    In the unit 11 we are working about PREHISTORY & ANTIQUITY.
    How do you do the timeline?
    Below you can watch a tutorial about how you do a timeline in DIPITY.
    But the most important question is how we will do the events.
    I will explain to you:
    TITLE: You write the title of the event.
    DATE: Write first the month, day, year. (Jan 1, 1900)
    Remember if it is before christ you will have to write BC like this (Jan 1, 1900 BC)
    Also if you want to explain a period of time you will have to write using "-" between years like this (500-1500)
    DESCRIPTION: Write the description about the event. Remember to write the most important things.
    PICTURE: You can upload from your computer or use the URL.
    LINK: You can link the event with more information. (http://www.wikiforkids.ws/)
    LOCATION:You can add the coordinates of the location with google maps (WATCH THE TUTORIAL)
    VIDEO URL: You can add a video from youtube, google video...

    When you will finish your timeline, you have to record the timeline explaining with a video.
    You will use the web tool http://www.screencast-o-matic.com/

    After you have to give to the teacher the video to upload in our youtube´s canal. 
    Finally you will do the post in your blog with your video´s embed code.
