AROUND THE WORLD (Part 2): continents, countries, capital cities, mountains and rivers.

SOCIAL SCIENCE EXAM ( WEDNESDAY, 29th NOV. 2017 ): Continents. Countries and capital cities. Mountains and rivers. CONTINENTS AND OCEANS (I recommend you to listen to the song, it's full of content!). Continents are like big pieces of land. There are seven continents on Earth. The continents are called: Africa Antarctica Antarctica is a continent that doesn’t have any countries. It is one of the coldest places in the world. People don’t live here. Asia Australia Europe Europe is home to the smallest country in the world, the Holy See or the Vatican. It is the smallest country both in size and population. North America South America Most of the continents have lots of different countries on them. A country is also a piece of land. But countries are much smaller than continents . Each country has its own government. The government makes the rules that everyone has to follow. The five oceans are called: The Pacific Ocean The Atlantic O...

VERY VERY IMPORTANT MESSAGE!!!!

Dear pirates, Do you know what to be a pirate means? Are you sure you want to be HONORARY PIRATES? I am sure you are very good pirates, that is why I chose you to complete the mission. However, today I felt really sad when I saw you trying to cheat opening the chest. You are not in Canada and you shouldn’t try to open the chest because the mission is not finished. I read your letter and I accept your apologies. In the end, everybody makes mistakes, also pirates. And even your own captain! You have paid to travel to Canada. You will do the Adventure on Friday. Once you are in Canada you will have to look for the key to open the chest… Where is the key? That is still a secret… but I can tell you it is very very close to your pirate ships. Thank you for being honest. Honesty is crucial to be pirates. See you soon. The Messenger Parrot P.S. I also want to answer some of your letters. Andrés, when the Adventure finishes I will go with Mr. Rodrigo to fi...

NEW MESSAGE FROM THE MESENGER PARROT!

Dear pirates, Considering how much you speak English on the Pirate Ship, I give you these Pirate Crowns to each group: Group A Pink Pirates: 20 Orange Pirates: 20 Red Pirates: 18 Yellow Pirates: 20 Green Pirates: 15 Blue Pirates: 20 Group B Pink Pirates: 13 Orange Pirates: 14 Red Pirates: 15 Yellow Pirates: 17 Green Pirates: 15 Blue Pirates: 15 The CAPTAINS OF THE WEEK are RODRIGO R. and ALINA. I read all your letters again! Thank you to all those who wrote me! I love your map África! I also like your story, Lucía. Here are some of the answers. My favourite food is fruit, but I also like eating nuts, flowers, seeds and even insects. Who is going to look after Jack and Barbossa? That is a good question... You are the Pirates, so you have to find a solution, not me! Will you come to the farm? I will go wherever you go. WIll Mr. Rodrigo Speak Spanish o...

At the beginning, there was a class with 24 students...

At the beginning, there was a class with 24 students in Carmen Iglesias school. But they were not normal students, they were Pirates! It was a secret and nobody should know it, not even Ambar, the headmaster. Mr.Rodrigo and Amanda were their teachers and they knew about the secret. Then, one day, the Messenger Parrot appeared in the Pirate class. He told them about a Treasure Adventure. It was also a secret. The Pirates went on a treasure adventure around the world. Finally, the Pirates found the treasure with the help of Mr. Rodrigo, Amanda and the Messenger parrot. THE END (Claudia Rodrigáñez) This Treasure Adveture is coming to the end... and you will hopefully find the chest. I love this story because it perfectly summarises all the adventure, and in general, the whole school year. I hope the Messenger Parrot feels as proud of you as I feel. Mr. Rodrigo The captains of the week are: Ghita and Carmen.

What are you waiting for to pay?

Dear pirates, What are you waiting for to pay? Didn’t Mr. Rodrigo tell you that the last day to pay is Friday? After that day, the adventure will be stopped! You need to hurry up! These are the Pirate Crowns you have right now: Group A Pink Pirates: 20 Orange Pirates: 10 Red Pirates: 49 Yellow Pirates: 36 Green Pirates: 8 Blue Pirates: 37 Group B Pink Pirates: 50 Orange Pirates: 2 Red Pirates: 14 Yellow Pirates: 26 Green Pirates: 45 Blue Pirates: 60 Remember that once you find the chest, you will be declared honorary pirates . But to be an honorary pirate you will have to explain why you are a pirate and how you are going to change the world . NOT EVERYONE CAN BE A PIRATE! For example: I am a real pirate BECAUSE... I am very kind. Kind people are brave people. I take care of the environment. The environment is my life. I protect my friends, my family, my classmates and all that people I love, they are my best allies. ...

All pirates on board! Science Exam. Last letter from the MP.

All pirates on board! Here I wrote some of the questions that could be in the final Science Exam… OR ARE THEY REALLY IN THE FINAL EXAM? Anyway, get ready to answer these questions. To practice I recommend you to look for the answers using either your notes or your book, as we did in class. What are the four points on a compass? / What do NE, SE, NW, and SW mean on a compass? In which hemisphere is Spain located? How many autonomous communities does Spain have? What are the two archipelagos in Spain? What is the longest river on the Iberian Peninsula? How many years are in a century? Which two main cultures lived on the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages? What system controls everything we do: thinking, walking, walking and breathing? (Think about the system that sends messages and signals to our brain). What is the sticky substance inside our ear canal that helps protect our ears from dirt and infection?
