RENEWABLE AND NON RENEWABLE ENERGY

HELLO FIFHT GRADERS

We are going to learn about energy. We need energy to have electricity, to move our cars and buses and to have heat.

Does all the energy come from the same sources?

(¿viene toda la energía de las mismas fuentes?)

Energy comes from different sources. Energy sources can be renewable (energía renovable) or non-renewable (energía no renovale)

RENEWABLE ENERGY is NATURALLY REPLACED by the EARTH. We never run out of it

(la energía renovable es reemplazada por la tierra y nunca se agota)

NON-RENEWABLE ENERGY is NOT REPLACED. It is LIMITED (

la energía no renovable no se sustituye y es limitada, se agota)

WATCH THIS VIDEO

Here you can find one more video and more information. Look at the definition of the words.

https://www.generationgenius.com/videolessons/renewable-vs-nonrenewable-energy-for-kids/

Do a graphic organizer in which you classify renewable and non-renewable sources of energy. Write some keaywords of each type

Haz un esquema clasificando fuentes renovables y no renovables de energía. Escribe dos o tres palabras muy importantes sobre cada tipo de energía.

HUERTO

Hola alumnas y alumnos de quinto y sexto

En días como hoy, lluviosos y casi invernales, me acuerdo mucho de nuestro huerto y pienso en cómo estarán nuestras pobres plantitas tan solas ellas.

Antes de que todos tuviéramos que irnos a casa encontré tiempo para hacer esto, quería enseñároslo aunque me hubiese gustado más que lo vierais en persona

Una amiga mía que es profe de Huertos (aunque no lo creas existen profes que solo se dedican a los huertos) ha hecho este trivial. Me pide que le mandemos preguntas. Por favor, después de jugar, haz una pregunta y escríbela en los comentarios de este post. (PINCHA EN LA FLOR PARA EMPEZAR Y DESPUÉS PINCHA EN LA FLECHA QUE APARECE ABAJO A LA DERECHA)

¡Cuidaos bien!

Drawing landscapes/ Dibujando paisajes

Hello fifth graders!

Are you doing some Art work these days? I hope so. Today we are going to learn how to draw landscapes (paisajes).

In these videos you have different techniques to make your pictures look awesome.

Something very important when we draw landscapes is the RULE OF THIRDS

(LA REGLA DE TERCIOS ES MUY IMPORTANTE)

Divide your paper in three parts and put the horizon line in one of the horizontal lines. you SOULDN’T put the horizon line at the center of your picture. Look at these two examples I drew myself

(divide tu papel en tres partes y pon la línea del horizonte en una de las dos líneas, nunca pongas el horizonte en el centro)

Picture on the left side is a BAD PICTURE: The horizon line is at the centre, the trees are equally big, the river has the same size…

En el dibujo de la izquierda he hecho la línea del horizonte en el medio. Los árboles son del mismo tamaño y el río es siempre igual… no hay profundidad ni perspectiva y por eso es un MAL DIBUJO

Picture on the right side is a GOOD PICTURE: the horizon line is at the superior third, the river is smaller at the background and bigger when it comes close to us. The grass is big on the front and small at the back.

el dibujo de la derecha es un BUEN DIBUJO: la línea del horizonte no está en el medio (está en el tercio superior), el río es pequeño al fondo y cada vez se hace más grande y lo mismo pasa con la hierba.

NOW YOU DRAW YOUR LANDSCAPES! SEND THEM TO ME AND I WILL UPLOAD YOUR PICTURES TO THE CLASS BLOG!
