INTERACTION AND REPRODUCTION

 Hi everyone!

To help you get ready for this week's test, I have prepared this post. 

INTERACTION

We interact with the world around us (we see, smell, taste, move, feel, talk, comunicate...). To help us through this process of interaction, we need some body systems.

THE FIVE SENSES AND THE NERVOUS SYSTEM

We receive information from the five senses about what we hear, see, smell, touch and taste.

This information is sent to the brain (the nerves carry the message).

Finally, the brain sends instructions to the locomotor system.

* The brain is the main organ in the nervous system. It controls everything that we do.



Now, let's watch these videos:




THE LOCOMOTOR SYSTEM

It allows us to move and bend. It is made up of the bones, muscles and joints.

Bones are hard and rigid. They help us to protect our main organs and they support our body and give it its shape. The human body is made up of 206 bones.

Muscles are soft and elastic. There are more than 600 muscles in our body.

Bones and muscles work together at the joints to help our body to bend and move.

Can you locate theses bones and muscles? 

BONES: skull, spine, ribs. humerus, femur

MUSCLES: abdominal muscles, pectoral muscles, quadriceps, biceps, calf muscles.





These are the joints in our body:


Now, enjoy these videos!







REPRODUCTION

Humans reproduce to make more living things of the same type.

In this process (over 9 months) an egg becomes fertilised by a sperm and grows into a baby.

1. Fertilised egg

2. Embryo (6 weeks the size of a small seed).

3. Fetus (at 9 weeks, it is the size of an olive).

4. At 3 months it has all the organs (it is the size of an avocado).

5. At 9 months, a baby is born.


MALE AND FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEMS



To finish, let's watch some videos about reproduction.

To watch the REPRODUCTION VIDEO clicK   HERE.








I hope you find this information useful.

Don't forget to ask if you have any doubts or you don't understand anything.

See you all in class!

NUTRITION

 Hi kids!

Let's review what we have learnt about Nutrition.

Nutrition is one of our three life processes. Our body needs oxygen and nutrients and also to eliminate waste.

The body systems involved in this process are: THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM, THE EXCRETORY SYSTEM, THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM AND THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM.

THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM

It helps us to get nutrients from the food and elimate the waste.

The food gets in our body throug the MOUTH. In the mouth, the teeth break down the food and the tongue mixes it with saliva. When we swallow, the food goes down the ESOPHAGUS into the STOMACH. In the stomach, gastric juices make the food into a thick liquid. In the SMALL INTESTINE, nutrients pass into the blood and the waste go through the LARGE INTESTINE where it becomes harder and leaves our body through the ANUS.


Let's watch this video:



EXCRETORY SYSTEM

It helps us to get rid of the excess liquid in our body.

It is made up of : two kidneys, two ureters, one bladder and one urethra.

The KIDNEYS filter the blood. Then, excess water and waste are made into urine. Urine  goes down the URETERS into the BLADDER. When the bladder is full, it sends a message to our brain.The urine leaves our body through the URETHRA when we go to the toilet.


Let's watch this video,


RESPIRATORY SYSTEM

It helps us get oxygen from the air.

It is made up of the NOSE, WINDPIPE (OR TRACHEA), THE BRONQUI and THE LUNGS.

When we breathe in, the air goes into the NOSE through  the NOSTRILS. In the nostrils, little hairs stop foreign objects to enter our respiratory system.The air goes down the WINDPIPE. The windpipe divides into two tubes called BRONQUI. The bronqui go into the LUNGS. The lungs are like big sacks, they are squidgy and are made up of lots of little bags called ALVEOLI suronded by blood capillaries.The air goes into the alveoli.In the alveoli, Oxygen goes in and carbon dioxide goes out.

When we breathe, we use our DIAPHRAGM.

    When we breathe IN, the diaphragm goes DOWN and the chest gets BIGGER.

    When we breathe OUT, the diaphragm goes UP and the chest gets SMALLER.




Let's watch this video!



CIRCULATORY SYTEM

The circulatory system transports BLOOD (that includes nutrients and oxygen) to every part of our body.

It is made up of the HEART and the BLOOD VESSELS.

It is functioning day and night.

HEART. It is a muscle the pumps the blood. Every time it pumps is called a HEARTBEAT. The more oxygen we need, the faster our heart beats.

BLOOD VESSELS can be VEINS, ARTERIES AND CAPILLARIES.

    VEINS: return the blood back to the heart.

    ARTERIES: carry blood from the heart to the rest of the body.

    CAPILLARIES: Tiny blood vessels where the blood gives nutrients and oxygen to the cells in our body and also picks up waste products and carbon dioxide.

BLOOD is made up of: PLASMA,RED CELLS, WHITE CELLS AND PLATELETS.

    PLASMA    It is a watery liquid that carries  nutrients and also red cells, white cells and platelets.

    RED CELLS They carry oxygen.

    WHITE CELLS They fight infection.

    PLATELETS They help the blood to clot and for  scabs.



Let's watch this video!




I hope you find this information useful.

See you in class.

PLANTS

 Hi everybody! I want to remind you all the things you need to know about plants.

- PLANT KINGDOM.

    Plants are born, grow, reproduce and die.

    They need water, soil, sunlight and carbon dioxide.

    They can't move around but the can move some parts.


-PARTS OF A PLANT

Plants have different parts with different functions.

    ROOTS. They anchor the plant to the soil and absorb water and nutrients from the soil.

    STEM/TRUNK It holds the plant up and transports water and minerals from the roots to all parts of the plant.

    LEAVES. They make the food for the plant.

    FLOWER. They are the reproductive part of some plants. Some flowers grow into FRUITS.


-TYPES OF PLANTS

There are TREES, BUSHES and GRASSES.


-PLANTS REPRODUCTION

SEXUAL REPRODUCTION. Flowering plants reproduce by POLLINATION (the pollen from a stamen joins the pistil). There are different types of pollination (insect pollination, wind pollination and self pollination).

ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION: Non flowering plants reproduce by spores and stems.


- PLANTS NUTRITION.

Plants make their own food in a process called PHOTOSYNTHESIS




Now, let's watch some videos:

THE LAYERS OF THE EARTH

 Hi kids!

Today I want to review with you the three layers of the Earth.

The Earth can be divided into three layers (or three spheres):

  • GEOSPHERE is the solid part of the Earth. The Geosphere is divided into: 

        CRUST (the outer layer made of solid rock).

        MANTLE (it is under the crust and it is made of magma, semi liquid rock and it is very hot).

        CORE (the inner layer, it is the hottest and it is made up mostly of iron).

  • ATMOSPHERE is the layer of gases around the Earth (mostly nitrogen and oxygen).
  • HYDROSPHERE is the water on Earth (solid, liquid or gas).



Now, let's watch some videos:




I hope you find this information very usefull.

ANIMALS

 Hi kids!

Today, we are going to review everything we have learned so far about animals:


Animlas are living things. They are born, they grow, reproduce and die.

All animals perform the THREE LIFE PROCESSES of Nutrition, Interaction and Reproduction.

Depending on their internal structure, animals can be classified into: VERTEBRATES AND INVERTEBRATES.


INVERTEBRATES

Invertebrate animals don't have any backbone or spine or skeleton.

97% of animals are invertebrates.

Let's learn some more about these animals:





VERTEBRATES

Vertebrates have an internal skeleton made up with bones.

They can be classified into 5 GROUPS: MAMMALS, BIRDS, FISH, REPTILES AND ANPHIBIANS.

Let's learn some more about vertebrates!









And now, enjoy with these GAMES:


VERTEBRATES

INVERTEBRATES


That's all for now.

See you in class!

EARTH'S MOVEMENTS

 Hi everyone!


As you all know the Earth moves in two different ways. The MOVEMENTS OF THE EARTH are:


ROTATION

-The Earth moves on its own axis. 

-The Earth takes 24 HOURS/1 DAY to complete one rotation.

-This movement causes DAY AND NIGHT.




REVOLUTION

-The Earth moves around the Sun. 

-The Earth takes 365 DAYS/1 YEAR to complete one rotation.

-This movement causes THE SEASONS.

IMAGINARY LINES

 We can see imaginary lines on globes and maps.

We use these imaginary lines to describe a location on the Earth's surface.

MERIDIANS are semicircular vertical lines  from the North Pole to the South Pole. They are measured in degrees East and West. Meridian 0º is the Greenwich Meridian.

PARALELLS are circular horizontal lines. They are measured in degrees North and South. Paralell 0º is the Equator that divides the Earth into the Northern and the Southern Hemisphere.




Meridians measure LONGITUDE (the distance from the Greenwich Meridian).

Paralells measure LATITUDE (the distance from the Equator).

A GEOGRAPHIC COORDINATE is the combination of longitude and latitude to describe a location on the Earth's surface.

Now, let's watch tihis video. Enjoy!!



Last, you can try these GAMES. I hope you have fun!!

FIN DE CURSO Y RECOMENDACIONES DE VERANO

¡Buenos días!

Llegamos al final de un curso que no va a ser fácil de olvidar.

No queríamos dejar de mandaros un mensaje a familia y alumn@s.

A las familias, queremos reiteraros nuestro agradecimiento inmenso por haber trabajado desde casa con los niños y haber sido parte imprescindible de la continuación del proceso de aprendizaje de vuestros hijos. Sin vosotros no habría sido posible. De nuevo y de corazón, muchas gracias.

Para nuestros niños y niñas nos faltan palabras. Habéis demostrado ser unos auténticos campeones y no podemos estar más orgullosas de vosotros/as. Nos ha llegado vuestro trabajo y sabemos que os habéis esforzado mucho. ¡Bravo! ¡Sois los mejores!

Ahora toca despedirse, pero es una despedida cortita, un hasta luego.

Esperamos poder vernos todos en septiembre y que la situación para entonces sea lo más parecida a lo que todos recordamos. Ese es nuestro deseo, y esperamos que se cumpla.

A partir de hoy, toca un merecido descanso. Es muy necesario que durante este periodo de vacaciones repongamos fuerzas y disfrutemos mucho.

Os dejamos a continuación un documento que os hemos preparado con nuestras RECOMENDACIONES DE VERANO. Para verlo pinchar AQUÍ.

Os deseamos un feliz verano y ¡hasta septiembre!

Todo nuestro cariño.

SEMANA DEL 15 AL 19 DE JUNIO

¡Buenos días!

Comenzamos esta última semana de cole. Es un fin de curso muy diferente a como lo habíamos imaginado pero esto no nos tiene que poner tristes.

Si estuviéramos en el cole, esta sería nuestra Semana Cultural, que este año íbamos a dedicar al cuidado del planeta. Debido a las circunstancias excepcionales no se ha podido celebrar.

Pero aunque no podemos celebrarla en el cole hemos querido aprovechar esta última semana y os hemos preparado unas misiones especiales en relación con el cuidado de nuestro planeta.

Ya conocimos muchos rincones del Sistema Solar la semana pasada y esta semana os hemos preparado una misión a través de nuestro planeta en la que esperamos que aprendáis y os concienciéis  mucho sobre ecología y cuidado de La Tierra. MISIÓN: SALVEMOS EL PLANETA.

Esta es la única entrada que haremos esta semana pero eso no significa que tengáis que hacerlo todo hoy.

Está pensado para toda la semana. 

Ir haciendo cada día un poquito a vuestro ritmo.

No os olvidéis de buscar todos los elementos interactivos de cada página para no perderos ninguna información.

Hay que apuntar los códigos que se van consiguiendo en cada misión. Coger lápiz y papel.

Recordad, cada día de esta semana volver a esta entrada y continuad con la misión.

¿Queréis empezar?

Pues ¡a por ello!




¡Que tengáis una feliz semana!

¡Mucho amor!
