ENTREGA DE TAREAS

Buenos días a todos espero que estéis bien. Respecto a la entrega de tareas que voy mandando, no hace falta que me las entreguéis. De momento sólo necesito que las vayáis corrigiendo con las respuestas que voy publicando. Más adelante sí necesitaré que me enviéis alguna tarea, pero cuando lo necesite lo especificaré en el blog. 

Muchas gracias a todos por vuestra colaboración estos días y mucho ánimo. 

Sara.

FRIDAY 17TH

Today we are going to review the new concepts in English and social science.

ENGLISH

Let´s review the words ALREADY and YET.

Examples using already:

• Nicolás has already finished his homework.
• She has already eaten her breakfast.

Remember that we use already in POSITIVE (+) sentences BETWEEN the verbs or at the END. 

Examples using yet:

• María hasn´t finished her homework yet.
• Has Marcos finished his homework yet?

Remember that we use yet NEGATIVE (no)  and INTERROGATIVE (?) sentences at the end of the sentence.

SOCIAL
Remember what we learnt about the primary, secondary and tertiary sector. Read the following table to review it.

THURSDAY 16TH

ENGLISH

Today we are going to learn how to use the words ALREADY AND YET.

YET

We use it to emphasise that we expect something to happen soon. 

Yet is used in negative sentences and questions.

These are some examples with the word yet. It can be translated as "todavía" in negative sentences or as "ya" in questions.

Have you finished your homework yet?

I haven't finished it yet. I'll do it after dinner.

Where's Sam? He hasn't arrived yet.

Yet comes at the end of the sentence or question.

ALREADY

Already used with the present perfect means 'before now'. We use it to emphasise that something happened before something else or earlier than expected. 

It can be translated as "ya" in Spanish.

I have already spent my money.

He wanted to see Harry Potter but I have already seen it.

Already can come between the auxiliary (have) and the main verb or at the end of the clause.

In the following video we can understand them a little bit better    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Qa-GiJtOz8&t=63s

Now we are going to copy the grammar wall that you can find on page 78 in your notebook.

NATURAL SCIENCE

Today we are going to concentrate on insulator and conductor materials.

• INSULATOR. Materials that are good at keeping things hot or cold are called insulators. During the winter we wear fabrics like the wool that is an insulator to trap the heat around the body.
• CONDUCTOR. These materials are good at allow heat to pass through them. For example the metal in the saucepan.

This video can help you to understand conductor and insulator materials.

This second video is an experiment. You can try it in your house, but always with your parents. In the experiment you can observe how the butter melts in the metal spoon because metal is a good conductor of the heat.

In this unit we are going to study the economy and the primary, secondary and tertiary sectors.

There are hundreds of jobs and occupations such as farmers, teachers, waiters, etc. They can classified in 3 main areas:

1. PRIMARY SECTOR: it means working on the extraction of natural resources for example mining, farming or fishing.

                            

2. SECONDARY SECTOR: using the raw materials that are taken in the primary sector and        transforming them into products that people can use. For example construction industries or energy industries  

  

                     

3. TERTIARY SECTOR: is also known as the services sector because it provides services to the customers. For example education, tourism or transport.

WELCOME BACK!

TUESDAY 14TH

Good morning everybody! I hope you are all well. Welcome to the third term!

During this term we will work English daily and natural and social science in an alternative way, which means that one day we will study natural and the next day we will focus on social. Also, the natural answers will be given in the natural sciences days and the social answers in the social science days.

Buenos días a todos, espero que estéis bien. Bienvenidos al tercer trimestre.

Durante este trimestre trabajaremos inglés de forma diaria y natural science y social science de forma alternativa. Cada día estudiaremos una de ellas. Las respuestas las daremos los días que nos toque esa asignatura, es decir, cuando tengamos social veremos las respuestas del día anterior de social, y cuando estudiemos natural veremos las respuestas de día anterior de natural. 

Now let´s focus on our tasks!

ENGLISH

Review the vocabulary on page 118. Preparing for a party. Do the exercise 3 in the pupil´s book page 76  in your notebook, only look and match.

NATURAL SCIENCE

Today we are going to pay attention to the IMPORTANCE OF THE SUN.

Can you imagine how would be the earth without the sun?

The sun is the main source of energy of the earth. 

What are the BENEFITS OF THE SUN?

1. The Sun is very important in the plant’s growth. The Sun helps the plants to make their own food by the photosynthesis process.
2. The Sun is very necessary for the other living organisms that it provides us with light for the vision in order to see things.
3. The Sun provides us with the heat to warm our bodies.
4. The ٍSun provides some animals and humans with food as it helps the plants to make its own food by the photosynthesis process.
5. The Sun is very important in the formation of the clouds, the rain and the winds.

So, we can`t live on Earth without the Sun.

Now, read the text on page 66 and answer the questions 2 and 6 on page 67.
