LA CONSTITUCIÓN ESPAÑOLA

España es un país formado por muchos pueblos y muchas gentes. En 1.978 todos decidieron escribir cómo tenemos que comportarnos entre nosotros y con las gentes de otros países. Con todo lo que escribieron hicieron un libro que todos los españoles tenemos que conocer. Ese libro es la Constitución. En ella, se reflejan los derechos y los deberes de los ciudadanos españoles, así como nuestras libertades, límites territoriales, bandera, etc. Seguro que en clase, habéis tratado el tema y ahora repasaremos algunos de sus aspectos de una forma amena. Por ello, te proponemos las siguientes actividades:

1. Lee el cuento La constitución de los animales.
2. A continuación, explica brevemente qué relación existe entre éste y nuestra Constitución.
3. Lee la poesía que encontrarás en la web anterior y añade, de tu propia inventiva, dos versos más, relacionados con nuestros derechos y deberes como ciudadanos.

What can animals teach us?

Amazing Photos of the Most Unlikely Animal Friends

What can animals teach us?. Sometimes we think humans are the best species in the world. But we have a lot of things to learn about animal behaviours. And I think they can teach us the way of being a better person. We can learn from animals that we should help each other. Go to this web: ANIMALS FRIENDS and look at the pictures of these great stories:

Then write about these three questions.

a) Which is your favourite story?

b) What have you learned about animals?

The Lost extraterrestrial

Hello terrestrials!

I'm Kodos, from the planet KJ9. My home is in a galaxy far from here, in the Eye Nebula.

My planet is not so different than yours: we have big oceans and seas too, and large expanse of land over the seas, our continents. Out, in the space, you can see my planet green coloured bacause all the land is covered by jungles and forests, so we call it The Green Planet.

How do you call your planet? and why?

I need your help! My spaceship is broken, so i'm lost in the middle of your Solar System. My stellar map don't work. I need you to describe your Solar System, the number of planets and its characteristics, and your planet too, its size and movements, so i can go back to my galaxy.

You have information about the Solar System here

You can see a lot of things about The Earth here

Please, hurry! My alien dog is waiting me for going for a walk!

¿SABÍAS QUÉ...?

El castellano es un idioma riquísimo no sólo en léxico, por la cantidad de sinónimos de que dispone, sino también por sus expresiones. Seguro que las que citamos a continuación, han sido usadas en tu entorno o, incluso por ti mismo en multitud de ocasiones, pero ¿conoces su origen? Averígualo:

• Tener sangre azul
• Poner los puntos sobre las íes
• En un santiamén

A continuación, incluye otra que te haya llamado la atención y explícala.

The easiest thing to do in Maths is...

...Integrating multiple-variable functions in a non-stardard domain, of course!

hahahahahaha! XD (I was kidding!)

I was refering to COUNT, really. And there are strategies to count that even allow to express the number you want to reach directly in our ten-digit positional numeration system...

An easy example of this is...  ...try to count how many smileys are there in following line:

☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺.

If you display the smileys as above, you'll have to count them one-by-one to get the answer: there are 28 of them...

But if you display them in other manners, it could be easier to deduce it with just one glance:

☺☺   ☺☺
☺☺   ☺☺        ☺☺            
☺☺   ☺☺        ☺☺
☺☺   ☺☺        ☺☺         Here we have two groups of ten each one, AND eight more:
☺☺   ☺☺        ☺☺

        2                  8


Have a look to another example, with a number a bit higher (I recommend you to zoom out as much as your internet browser allows to see how the groups are displayed):

          groups of a hundred                                                 groups of ten                          five units

In fact, this idea is the one behind the invention of decimal system. Every order of units follows the pattern of an (usually incomplete) rectangle with five rows and two columns of groups of an order below, or just elements in the easiest case.
