Biology : Ecosystems

 Hello everyone, 

In this Biology class, we discussed the definition of an ecosystem and explored the diverse examples that we find close to our school at the Doñana national park. 

Have a look at the class resources here:












Can you think of any ecosystems close to where you live?

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. The diagram shows part of a circuit. What is the reading shown on the

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 !

Art : Student´s art auction

Image
 Hello everyone,  In this Art class we held an auction for the art students produced last term. They each had a budget of a thousand pounds to spend and practiced their bidding skills to secure their favourite paintings. We watched this video from Sotheby´s to help us understand the pace of an auction before we got started!  Students used these prompts to help them get the best deal for their rich clients on the phone... I want to bid…… pounds for this painting…. I want to buy the painting because… This artist is important because…  My final offer is....    I can make a better offer… I need this painting for my collection because... If I am the highest bidder, I will…. Alice
