INFORMACIÓN A FAMILIAS

Ayer entregué las licencias digitales de los libros de NS y SS. QUE NO SE PIERDAN (hacer una foto, copiarlas en un post-it junto al ordenador, copiar usuario y contraseña en la agenda...).

De esta forma:

1.- Los niños pueden acceder al libro desde cualquier parte y sin necesidad de andar paseándolo. 

2.- Pueden ayudarse de ello para preparar su exposición.

Cada alumno irá preparando y exponiendo una parte (que voy asignando en clase), así que la semana que viene se estrenan los de NS7 y a la siguiente los de NS8. Luego citaré para SS7 y SS8. E igualmente lo haré para NS1 y NS2.

Ya hemos terminado las unidades SS5 y SS6. Así que es un buen momento para ir repasándolas de cara al examen (sin fecha de momento, pero espero que pronto). Incluye la famosa mano de las edades de la historia, que deberían sabérsela ya sin dudar nada.

NOS VEMOS EL MIÉRCOLES EN LA REUNIÓN FAMILIAS-TUTORES 6º ;)

DAY 5 (13th September 2018)

SUMMARY OF THE DAY

Today, 13th September 2018, we reviewed the units 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 of Social Science. Sergio told us a new form to remember the history with a mnemonic rule. We copied the special words of the three first units and we finished the class.

José M.

Yesterday in Sergio´s class we were
reviewing what we had left of Natural
Science. He was asking us things about the
subject and we answered them. Then he
put some points in the agenda and we
were losing or winning them depending on the
behavior. And at the end we calculate the
points.
Diego S.

Yesterday in class, we first did a mnemonic about history. The mnemonic was a hand that has the five ages, one in each finger; from the prehistory to the contemporary ages. Then, we did a review of the mountains, rivers, and coasts of Spain. Also, we did a review of the population and economy of Spain and Europe.

                     Daniel. LL.

The 13/9/2018, at Sergio´s class, we review the 1-5 units of Social Science. Then we draw a hand shaped graphic with the history eras in each finger. We also learn a very easy and funny way of remembering historic dates.

Daniel R.

Day 4

Hello, today we have finished reviewing units 6, 7, 8, 9 of natural science in class. Sergio told us his idea of each conversation we talk in English is one point for us, and if we talk in Spanish is one point fewer for us. We started with 50 points. If we reach 100 points, we stop doing this activity, and if we reach 0 points Sergio told us that we were going bad. This is what we did today in class.
Inés S.

Today we did the end of the review of Natural Science. We looked at the expectations for this course.
Tomorrow we will have to bring again the papers that Sergio gave us before the summer to study.
Clara M.

We reviewed with Sergio the units 6, 7, 8 and 9 of Natural Science. We also practiced our vocabulary with the most important words of this units. Then Sergio tells us that if we speak in Spanish we will have more points, but if we speak in English we will have more points.

DAY 3

Today we did a review of Natural Science. Sergio has asked us about the papers to study during summer but we have not given them yet, we will have to bring them on Wednesday. For homework we need to do a painting and/or a writing in the agenda about what we expect and wish for this year. 

Paula.F

This is a summary of what we did in the class. We were doing a test of Natural Science from unit 1 to unit 5. The questions were of every unit. If they were correct, we ticked them and if they were wrong we put a cross. Finally, we had to take notes of the names, the telephone numbers and the birthdays dates.

Aitor O.

(11-Sept-2018) Today we did a review of English in the notebook and if we had it good we put a tick, if it was wrong we put a cross. Finally, we went to Vicky's class.
Sara M.

DAY 2

Today at school we did a review from day 1.

After we finished with the review we made a little English initial self-assessment test.

After the self-assessment test we put posters of everything we learned in 5th grade. The first ones to put the posters were the ones with the highest marks.

Sergio also told us that the papers he gave us before summer were for Wednesday.

💣💣💣 Goran A.


++++++

Today Sergio shown us the blog. He has taken numbers and we have been reading. Then, he has been asking us questions to know what we knew, and at the end he asked us for the paper that we committed to study this summer.

 Mar T.

DAY 1

The teacher welcomed us to 6th grade, gave us the new blog website, and we read it.

He expects us to be the best human beings we can be (not mediocre), and warn us about physical, psychological and sociological changes that are prone to appear in this period of life, so we must take them into consideration and react with intelligence (not with fear or ignorance).

We were talking in English about our summer holidays with the classmates, and the teacher assigned our new positions in the class.

Sergio will ask us for 'the papers' on Monday because there were a few friends missing.

He forgot to mention that we should bring on Monday our 5th grade notebooks to help with the review and to continue using them. (No 5th grade books needed).
