PHYSICAL CHANGE vs CHEMICAL CHANGE

In Science 3, we have been learning about physical and chemical changes.

We did an experiment and we classified each one.

First, we start with a mixture...

Then, we mix...

Secondly, we put water and salt in a paper plate and we put a nail on. 

After waiting some days, the nail has changed due to the oxidation process.

We also mixed vinegar and baking soda.

 Another change we observed was a candle which changes from solid to liquid state when we set fire to it.

The same happened with an ice cube...

Finally, we put water in a bag and after a day it had started to evaporate.

The last one was the apple's experiment. We cut an apple and we saw how its color changed in a while, following the oxidation process.

OUR CLASSIFICATION WAS THE FOLLOWING ONE:

We are still waiting to see the changes in the experiment with bread...

Here, you can watch other experiments about physical and chemical changes:

BABY ANIMALS

This week we continued working on animals. We started the week reviewing some contents of previous lessons. 

Here, students had to draw something about what the teacher said.

Then, we continued learning the names of some baby animals.

We played "Are you my mother?". Students had to ask this question and find the correct animal. Then, they made the puzzle.

VERTEBRATE AND INVERTEBRATE ANIMALS

Vertebrate animals have an internal skeleton, like tigers.

 Invertebrate animals don't have a skeleton, as a starfish.

SEEDS of FRUITS and LEAVES

We have continued learning about plants this week. On Wednesday we looked some fruits and we saw if they had seeds or not . Then, we counted how many seeds they had.

We completed a chart with some information about these fruits. There were an odd one out that was the artichoke, since it is a vegetable instead of a fruit.

The checked out fruits were: lemon, tangerine, tomato, banana and apple.

Hemos seguido aprendiendo sobre las plantas esta semana. El miércoles miramos algunas frutas y vimos si tenían semillas o no y cuántas tenían.

Completamos una tabla con información de estas frutas. Había un intruso, que era la alcachofa, ya que es una verdura, en lugar de una fruta.

Los frutos examinados fueron: limón, mandarina, tomate, plátano y manzana.

 We also played a TRUE/FALSE game to review some contents of the unit. 

-----

También jugamos a VERDADERO/FALSO para repasar algunos contenidos de la unidad.

Finally, on Thurday we went to our playground to look for different types of leaves in order to classify them after that. We found two different types: one from a tree and one from a bush.

------------

Finalmente, el jueves fuimos al patio a buscar distintos tipos de hojas para clasificarlas después. Encontramos dos tipos diferentes: una de un árbol y otra de un arbusto.

VIDEOS to review the names of some FRUITS:

HERBIVORE, CARNIVORE AND OMNIVORE ANIMALS

As you know, we are learning about animal kingdom. This week, we learnt the differences between HERBIVORE, CARNIVORE and OMNIVORE animals.

We made some puzzles, working in teams. Then, we also played "the basketball game". Children had to throw the ball and try to score a basket in order to say the name of the animal and classify into herbivore, carnivore or omnivore animal, depending on its nutrition.

-----------

Como sabéis, estamos aprendiendo acerca del mundo animal. Esta semana, aprendimos las diferencias entre animales HERBÍVOROS, CARNÍVOROS y OMNÍVOROS.

Hicimos algunos puzzles, trabajando en equipo. Después, también jugamos al "juego del baloncesto". Los niños tenían que lanzar la pelota e intentar encestar para decir el nombre del animal y clasificarlo en animal herbívoro, carnívoro u omnívoro, dependiendo de su nutrición.
