Unit 9: WHAT CAN WE PREDICT ABOUT THE FUTURE?


Our lives are changing constantly... for example we used to read physical books and now most of us use e-books instead... what will come next?? Who knows...  

But if we are certain about something is that we are sorrounded by technology more and more each day and, in a near future, we will be even more. But... do we know how to name the devices we use?

And here you have some activities to learn and practise the new vocabulary: TECHNOLOGY EXERCISES.


When we want to speak about the future and make predictions, we need to use  the future simple. Let´s learn some more about this tense. Click here to see the grammar notes about the FUTURE SIMPLE.

International food vocabulary.


And in order to help you learn them, here you have this online activity: 


When we talk about food, we might need to talk about the "quantity" of ingredients that we have or need. To do it, we use "QUANTIFIERS". Let's learn about them... click here to see the grammar.

Here you can also watch a video explaining "too much" and "too many;" however, we have not found any suitable video about "(not) enough."

Unit 6: HOW ARE THINGS MADE?

Our world is full of different materials and, although you already know some of them, in this unit we are going to learn some new words related to materials.

Now, let’s see if it´s easier for you to learn the vocabulary by playing this game.

 

To talk about the basic materials or qualities of something, we use made of.  It has a meaning similar to ‘composed of’. Let´s see the structure made of.

Liveworksheet 2

Liveworksheet 3

Liveworksheet 4

We are aware about the importance of taking care about our environment and a good way to do it and to develop our imagination and creativity is to reuse materials. Here you have an example of very typical and common materials that we can reuse: materials to be reused.

 

Now we are going to learn a new grammar structure that we use when we don´t know, when it is obvious, or when we don´t want to say who or what is doing an action, which is PRESENT PASSIVE.

These videos explain the difference between active voice and passive voice: when passive voice is mainly used, subject pronouns and object pronouns, 'doer' and 'receiver' of the action...

BUZÓN DE LAS EMOCIONES

Imagen
                       Las emociones son muy importantes en nuestra vida porque reflejan nuestro mundo interno, es decir, cómo nos sentimos "por dentro". Nos informan de cómo vivimos, en nuestro interior, lo que sucede a nuestro alrededor. Identificarlas y comprenderlas nos permite conocernos mejor y entender por qué nos comportamos como lo hacemos en determinadas situaciones.           En cursos anteriores teníais un buzón físico en clase pero este año ya sabéis que todo será "más digital", así que vamos a modernizarnos y a abrir un "buzón virtual".           Como ya sabéis la mayoría, será un espacio ("virtual") para que nos contéis todo eso que os pasa "por dentro" y que os cuesta identificar, comprender o gestionar. Queremos que os sintáis libres para compartir todos esos sentimientos que nos asaltan de vez en cuando (unas veces positivos y otras no tanto...

HAPPY ST PATRICK'S DAY!!!

  Last Thursday, 17th of March, we celebrated St Patrick's Day at school. We saw some videos and learnt about the origin of Ireland Big Day, the traditions around it and how it is celebrated in different parts of the world. Here we leave you the two videos in case you want to watch them again. Afterwards, fifth graders solved a really difficult crossword after doing some research on the internet and finally we made some crafting related to St Patrick and Ireland. We made an origami shamrock following this tutorial: However we modified the final result so that it looked like the one St Patrick used to explain the mistery of the Holy Trinity when he was spreading Catholicism through Ireland. Here is the result:
