Remedial work 

As you already know, the students that I mentioned this afternoon have to answer the following questions to get a higher mark in the term test.

So, answer the following questions:
1. What are the sensory organs? Provide the definition and mention the five sensory organs.
2. What is the iris? And why is it important?
3. What is the epidermis? Explain.
4. Which substance gives colour to our skin?
5. Why is the subcutaneos layer impotant for us? 
6. Draw the skin and label its parts.

Many of these questions were part of the term test, so they are very easy! Come on!
Don't forget to hand the answers in on Tuesday, 2nd September.

Term Tests

Temas para los term tests de Science and Social Studies y de Literature

El examen de Science and Social Studies será el martes 26 y para el mismo tenemos que estudiar los siguientes temas:

• La definición de sense y de sensory organs. Además, los sentidos de la vista y el tacto, los cuales se están trabajando en clase. Estudiar la información que se encuentra en el cuadernillo para poder responder preguntas al respecto y reconocer las partes de los órganos que participan en estos sentidos. 
  
  
  

La evaluación de Literature, por su parte, será el miércoles 28 y los temas a estudiar son los siguientes:

• Elementos del libro “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” (las partes de sus tapas y del lomo, detalles acerca de la cantidad de capítulos y de páginas), detalles sobre la vida del autor (detalles generales que se pueden leer a partir de los links publicados en el blog con anterioridad) y el capítulo 1 (releerlo como para contestar preguntas). Se tendrán en cuenta también los comentarios que hayan tenido lugar en la clase, así como las interpretaciones que fuimos realizando, para poder contestar preguntas.

A repasar y a sacarse todas las dudas!!!!

Literature Assignment

Some questions about "The Witches"

Here are the questions I would like you to answer during the winter holidays. Remember not to copy the questions. Just write the complete answers, in a tidy way, to hand them in on Wednesday, 6th August. Be careful! Because some questions have two parts! And remember that you can use the book to answer all questions... that's great help!

1- Who was the author of the book? Write what you remember about his life.

2- Who was the illustrator? Which was his relationship with the author?

3- What is strange about grandma's thumb? Do we know what happened to it?

4- What do witches look like? (Write a full description!).

5- How did Ranghild Hansen disappear?

6- Which are the steps you have to follow to prepare the "Formula 86 Delayed Action Mouse-Maker"? (Write them in bullet points, as in a recipe).

7- How did Bruno's dad react when the grandma told him that Bruno was a mouse?

8- Draw the dining-room scene, in which witches are turned into mice.

9- Mention three things that grandma did to adapt her house for the boy, who was a mouse.

10- Did you like the story? Why/Why not? (Give a good, complete answer to this question).

I know you'll be able to answer all these questions. Good luck! 

And happy holidays! Enjoy!

The Witches - Chapters 15 and 16

Changing the end of chapter 15

Today you worked very well with the Ipads. Your mission was to change the end of chapter 15, "The Mouse-Burglar". And you had plenty of ideas!!!

Some examples:

Great job!

Miss Luchi.

Squeeze your brains!

Think, think and think!

Today we worked a lot! Again, you also showed you're extremely good actors and actresses and we also did a 5x2 routine. The questions you could think of were highly creative! 

Great job kids! I can't wait for Friday to know how the story goes on!

Miss Luchi.

Great plans for a new school

We want to be eco-friendly!

As part of our new project, today we gathered in groups to start thinking about alternatives that can make of our future new building an innovative, eco-friendly school. 

Next week, we'll present our suggestions and maybe the new school could be built taking some of our alternatives into account. I'm sure it will be a great experience!

Good luck!

Miss Luchi.

How disgusting they are!

Witches and more witches...

It doesn't matter if they are young or old... But witches are very similar! However, they also have some differences... And that's what you tried to write in the Venn diagrams:

Great job!

Miss Luchi.

Poor Bruno!

What will happen now?

Today we started predicting what's going to happen in the next chapter... Please, read the following two chapters so that we know how the story goes on!

Miss Luchi.

A new recipe

We are great witches!

Today we had to create new, amazing recipes so that kids would not turn into mice, but into something different. You managed to create fantastically horrible recipes... with disgusting results! 

Well done 5th form!

Miss Luchi.

Witches and more witches!

What are witches like?

Remember that witches are different women... but you should also remember that witches can be any woman you see around you... even your Literature teacher! Hahahaha!

Nice pictures!

Miss Luchi.

The Witches

Reading is great fun!

I love our Literature lessons! Thank you for showing so much interest in the lessons and in the book. I enjoy the reading moments a lot with you. And you are making a great effort to read with passion and energy... and some of you seem to be real witches when you read!

See you on Wednesday kids! Hmmm... have you eaten chocolates today? If I were you I would be very careful tomorrow, at 9 o'clock. Let's cross our fingers so that you are not changed into a mouse! Hahahahaha!

Miss Luchi.

Our NFS mascot

Let's be original!

Hello everyone! How are you doing? In just two days you'll be presenting your mascot. Are you getting it ready? I don't know how you're feeling, but I'm really excited about your proposals! I can't wait to see them!
