FORCES

CAN AIR PUSH?  FIND OUT!





What makes a jet take off?
Can you make a balloon move like a rocket? Try!

A push and a pull are contact forces. What about non-contact forces? What kind of a force is MAGNETISM?

Watch and find out.


  • What are magnets made of?
  • What can we find in the core of the Earth?
  • Where can we find magnets?
  • How many poles do magnets have?
  • What can magnets do?


CHECK OUT THE AWESOME MAGNETIC PROJECTS PRIMARY 4 CARRIED OUT!

We used recycled materials!
Can you spot what they are?




Did you see any magnets?
Are magnets attracted to all metal objects?

VERTEBRATES

IGUANAS

An iguana is a vertebrate because it has a spinal column and an internal skeleton.

It is a reptile and it has hard scales covering its body. It has four short legs with five toes on each foot.

It also has quite a long tail. It breathes air with its lungs.




It looks a little scary but not to worry! It is an herbivorous animal. Iguanas eat plants.

They are oviparous and they lay their eggs on land, so their young are born from eggs.

PRIMARY 5: OUR SOLAR SYSTEM

OUR SOLAR SYSTEM


We have learned a lot about our solar system and we want to share what we learned about it with you.


We did the visual presentations along with Miriam, the Basque Art teacher. 

Read what she says about the Solar System Project:




"Proiektu polit hauek aurrera eramateko, arte hezkuntzako ordua aprobetxatu dugu, elkarri lagunduz eta talde lanean poliki-poliki bakoitzak al duen neurrian landuz. Horrez gain, euretariko askok, birtziklapeneneko gauzakin egin dituzte eta esperientzia ederra izan dute. Arteaz gain, ahozkotasuna ere landu dugu, bai inglesez eta baita euskeraz ere. Ekintza polita benetan!"   -Miriam-
                                                                             









 




Look at the wonderful projects Primary 5 students carried out in pairs.

LANDSCAPES AND SETTLEMENTS



In the last unit we have looked at natural landscapes and man-made ones. We compared urban landscapes to rural ones. And we even thought about the positive and negative points to living in a rural town or in a large megacity.


We also did a project on rural and urban landscapes.

Would you like to see our projects? Then watch the videos that follow. 

After you have had a look at all the different projects take part in our "Landscapes and Settlements" poll and vote for your favourite projects!
