This is the presentation that we watched in class yesterday.
Hello kids! In this new science unit we are going to learn about the process of interaction of humans. We will also study the different organs that help us to interact with our environment in our daily life.
Are you ready for a new learning adventure into some of your body systems?
Hello kids! Welcome to our new science unit about Living Things. In this unit we are going to learn many different things about the living things that live on our planet. You will study really interesting facts about different animals and plants and also about your body.
Here you can see some examples of animal and plant cells for you to take into account when doing your project.
These are the steps to follow:
1. Choose between an animal or plant cell. 2. Make a sketch or rought draft of your cell on a piece of paper. 3. Choose the materials you will need in order to make your project (spheres, buttons, marbles, macaroni, glitter, toothpicks, etc). 4. Choose the base that you will use to place all the parts of the cell (a box, cardboard, etc). 5. Make your own cell. 6. Decorate it. 7. Practice your presentation at home (Check the instructions in CLASSROOM).
8. Record your FLIPGRID presentation for your teacher and classmates. 8. Have fun!
SCIENCE UNIT 8: ENERGYDuring the next weeks we are going to study about energy and different types of energy. Look at these videos and review the contents studied in class.
During the next weeks we are going to study about matter and materials. We are going to learn about the importance of recycling and also about how matter can change. Mixing and separeting materials is very interesting, and we are going to check on this, too.
Look at these videos and practice the contents that we study in class.
WHAT IS MATTER?
Remember that matter is everything we can see, or touch, or smell, or taste. Actually, everything on the planet is made up of matter, and you are also made up of matter!!
