BONES - VIDEOS

Hello again dear friends:

I am sorry for not uploading new materials since last September, but I have been very busy for a long time. I have uploaded three videos about bones because it is Halloween time (next Saturday) and due to my students are learning the names of the bones.







They have learnt the following facts:
·        Inside our body, there are many bones.
·        We have 206 bones.
·        Bones are hard and rigid.
·        Our bones support and protect our body.
·        All the bones form our skeleton.
·        The ulna, radius, humerus, skull, ribs, spine, pelvis, femur, tibia and fibula are bones.


Remember, just click the pictures and enjoy. Regards, Christopher.

PRIMARY AND SECONDARY COLOURS

Hello again dear friends!!!


Here we are again with new videos, activities... In this post, we are going to learn what primary and secondary colours are. 


PRIMARY COLOURS: they cannot be made from other colors.  Artists create all the other colours by mixing together the primary colors. They are red, blue and yellow.

SECONDARY COLOURS: they are made by mixing two primary colors.  Each secondary color is made from the two primary colors closest to it on the color wheel. They are orange (red and yellow), green (blue and yellow) and purple (red and blue).

Here you are a video about primary and secondary colours we watched at school just for fun and learn because they have to colour the famous painting "Mona Lisa" by Leonardo Da Vinci using these colours only. They cannot use pink, grey, black...



Regards, Christopher.

MACHINES - PARTS OF A COMPUTER

Hello again dear friends:

We are studying the machines in Natural Science. We know the fact that there are many machines, such as scissors, vacuum cleaners, spades, projectors... They are divided into simple and complex machines and they can be manual or automatic. 

We use machines to work, travel and play.
  • Some machines are simple, such as scissors. Simple machines are made up of few pieces. They use human energy.
  • Other machines are complex, such as a bicycle. Complex machines are made up of many pieces. They use human energy, electricity or petrol to work.
  • Computers are complex machines. We use computers to do many things, for example, to write, to draw, to play games, to watch videos, to listen to music and to surf the Internet. Computers have many parts, for instance, the CPU, the screen, the keyboard, the mouse, the mouse mat and the printer.


In this post, you have five pictures to different activities (listening, reading, spelling…). Remember, just click the pictures and enjoy them.
