Technology : the effects of electrical current

Hello everyone, 

In this technology class we discussed the effects of electrical currents, types of energy and how they are produced. 





Watch the video and try to answer the questions!

Physical Education : The Eatwell Plate

Image
 Hello everyone,  Students in Phyiscal Education have been studying diet and healthy eating, so I thought I would introduce them to the Eatwell Plate. This plate is a visual aid to help us understand how much from each food group we should have in our diet.  We used an interactive resource from Food Standards Scotland   to complete our own Eatwell Plate buy adding each item of food to the relevant section. Students then completed their own Eatwell Plate on the worksheet below:  They drew images of the food items we saw during the interactive activity and wrote down the names of fruit and vegetables, carbohydrates, protein, fats and dairy products.  In the next class we completed a quiz about the Eatwell plate to test their understanding, how many answers do you know?  Check out the answers here !

Technology : Series and parallel circuits

Image
 Hello everyone,  In this Technology class we discussed the differences between parallel and series circuits and how to use Ohms law to answer questions about circuits.  This video is a great resource to give students an overview of the theme:  Check out the worksheet here: In a parallel circuit , the current flows along more than one path to each of the components.  In a series circuit , the current flows along one path through all the components.  Ohms law : As the voltage across a resistor is increased, what happens to the resistance of the resistor  It decreases  It remains constant  It increases  2. What is the current in this circuit?  6A 2A 0.5 A 3. What is the resistance of the resistor in this circuit?  20 Ω 1.8Ω 0.05Ω 4. If the resistance in the circuit is halved, what will the current be?  0.3A 0.6A 0.15A 5. The diagram shows part of a circuit. What is the resistance of the resistor shown?  9Ω 4Ω 0.25Ω 6. T...

Art : artist interviews

Image
 Hello everyone,  In art class students have been preparing a series of questions for their artist interviews, posing as famous figures such as Frida Khalo, Pablo Picasso, Leonardo da Vinci and Georgia O'Keeffe. At home, they had to research their artist and come to class ready to tell everyone all about themselves as their artist persona!  Some students dressed up and really got into character. The questions and answers taught us all a lot about each artist, from their most famous works, their families, where we can see their art today and where they lived. This class allowed students to practice saying dates in English, as well as using both present and past tenses.  What famous artist would you want to talk about?  Alice
