YouTube video "We´ve got the whole world in our hands."

Caring about the planet is the topic we have been working on for Earth Day. Our younger students have learnt this song, being conscious of the importance of looking after our World. Enjoy the song!

This was the video we presented to all of primary school during the presentation of the murals made by 4th and 5th grade. The students in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade drew pictures related to the video, to hold up during the sing-along portion of their presentation. This was a perfect end to our project. The students really enjoyed singing along!

Cooking the Chocolate Buckeyes...!!! Portfolio Activity.

We have discovered that there is a link between cultures that was introduced during Caleb´s presentation. Apparently, in Ohio they celebrate the chestnut just like we do here in Spain. For Caleb it is called “the Buckeye”, for us it is called the “castaña” or chestnut, that is eating in Fall and specially during the “Magosto Festival”. However, in Ohio, the buckeye is a poisonous chestnut, that cannot be eaten.

The chocolate buckeye was made to look like a chestnut, but it isn´t made with the chestnut. Therefore, the chocolate buckeye doesn´t taste like one.

Recently, we could cook them at the school and enjoy them as well...!!!

Climate Change Videos.

We have begun a new project relating to Global Warming. We started this week off by watching a video called "Our Future", narrated by Morgan Freeman. It describes what the world looks like now, because of Greenhouse Gases. Later, it begins to describe what the planet can look like if we star using renewable energy.

We also watched "Global Warming for kids" that, unlike its title suggests, is a pretty advanced video very worthy for our students. It talks about the gases and chemical structure of Greenhouse gases. It also defines important definitions related to Climate Change.
