4º British: Weekly Works (2013-2014)

Here you have the Weekly Works for the first term of this year. I will give you the deadline for each one with anticipation at class. Good luck! 

WW 1. English Parliamentarism and Enlightment

WW 2. Period of Revolutions. Unifications.

WW 3. Independence of USA

WW 4. Japan

Remember that it is compulsory to give to the teacher all the activities or works in the required date. If you fail to finish them or you do it out of date, the mark will be a 0 for that work).

British: Geographical coordinates and AR/GR

Today we will do a review of mapping skills. But it is a timed-trial: you will have only today's class for solving the following activities:

1. This is about geographical coordinates. Look carefully at the world map and match each city with its coordinates. 
2. This is about Area references. Answer the questions.
3. Finally, an activity about Grid references. Look carefully at the picture and match each reference with the correct icon of the legend (key symbols)

Write the answers of all these activities in a word document (with your names) and send it, as a attached file, to blogeducativo08@gmail.com

Try to do your best... and good luck!

1º British: Historical model-making

Finally, here you have your wonderfull historical dioramas. You were very creative and worked hard. Congratulations! J

I do like all of them, really. Which one is your favourite? Maybe the fantastic and famous Library of Alexandria?

Or maybe the Parthenon? With the sculpture of Athenea Parthenos inside? Do you prefer a Mesopotamian ziggurat?

Do you like misteries and advertures? In this case, you would probably prefer to discover Tuthankhamen’s tomb…

Do you like gladiator? Or mythological stories?

And what about the Vesubius’ explosion? With the destruction of the Pompeii, the Roman city…

We also have pyramids, a mummy, an “auriga”…
