An adventure into the island
Hi, we’re going to listen this story:

and then answer the questions proposed by your teacher.
1 º ESO
FIVE KINGDOM DISPLAY
The students of 1st of ESO -IES RAMON Y CAJAL-MURCIA have made several jobs about some living beings. They are displayed in the classroom.The students have used different materials. Here you can see these jobs in one presentation.
ONE OF THE MOST EXPENSIVE MINERAL ...AND BLOODY
Coltan: A mineral that is often found in electronics. While this may not be the world’s most expensive metal, it is weighted with blood. Coltan is mostly harvested in the Congo, Rwanda and Venezuela and is considered to be a leading conflict mineral. Violence, rape and monetary exploitation are often side effects of the mining practices. Rwandan rebel soldiers force prisoners, some children, to dig for the mineral. Coltan mining also impacts the endangered Mountain Gorilla as it is mined near the Kahuzi Biega National Park (gorilla hábitat). Coltan harvest in the Democratic Republic of Congo reaps 8 MILLION DOLARS a year. Each pound of coltan sells for 100 DOLARS.

A display of presentations made by the students of 1st of ESO -IES RAMON Y CAJAL-
Without solution we are 7000 millions of habitants
Without solution we are 7000 millions of habitants
"Our planet has already 7000 millions of people", I can read, uneasiness, in the País newspaper"... and in 2050 we will be more than 9000 millions.." This is not a thriller film, but it sounds frightening and this week Halloween was celebrated .. But the most confusing is that some babys are fighting to get the doubtful honour of taking the world tittle "7000 millions"
Sin solución somos 7000 millones de habitantes
"El planeta tiene ya 7.000 millones de habitantes", leo no sin cierta desazón en el País, "..y en 2050 probablemente superará los 9.000 millones.." , aunque no sea una película de terror, suena terrorífico y además coincide con Hallowen....Pero lo que de verdad me ha confundido es que se haya establecido una pequeña batalla campal entre los bebés que optan al dudoso honor de llevar el título mundial de "7000 millones".
HAPPY HALLOWEEN
The bilingual classes of 1ºB and 2ºB have celebrated Halloween on Monday 31-10. The last two hours we have been watching some presentations and videos related to this celebration. Their English and DNL teachers have assisted too.

PLANTS AND FUNGI
PLANT: A living organism of the kind exemplified by trees, shrubs, herbs, grasses, ferns, and mosses, typically growing in a permanent site, absorbing water and inorganic substances through its roots, and synthesizing nutrients in its leaves by photosynthesis using the green pigment chlorophyll.
FUNGUS: Any of a group of unicellular, multicellular, or syncytial spore-producing organisms feeding on organic matter, including molds, yeast, mushrooms, and toadstools.
INVERTEBRATES
There is an interesting website about invertebrates here --> www.pbs.org/kcet/shapeoflife/animals/index.html where you can revise all groups: porifera, cnidaria, platyhelmints,.....
If you want to know more about WORMS try this -> http://www.naturewatch.ca/english/wormwatch/virtual_worm/index.html It is a 3D application about the Earthworm. It will be useful to past the exam.

type A solutions UNIT "Matter"
EXAM:
2) A regular container has the next measures: l=150cm, w=60 cm, h=35 cm.
Volume in cm3 ? Capacity in litres?
v=l*w*h= 150*60*h=315,000cm3 1l=1dm3=1000cm3 -->315,000cm3 =315 dm3= 315 l
3)Density of a substance, mass=1,500 kg and volume=15 m3
d=m/v=1500/15=100 kg/m3
4)Convert these temperatures:
-80ºC to K --> K=ºC+273--> K=(-80)+273=193K
160K to ºC-->ºC=K-273 -->ºC=160-273=-113ºC
5) Density of oil is 900kg/m3. There are 9,900,000 g of oil in a container.
Capacity of the container in litres?
9,900,000g=9,900 kg
d=m/v--> v=m/d=9900/900=11m3
1m3=1000dm3=1000l -->11m3= 11,000 l
type B solutions UNIT
EXAM:
2. A regular container has the next measures: l:15 m, w:6 m, h:3.5.
Volume in cubic metres? Capacity in litres?
v=l*w*h=15*6*3.5=315m3 1m3=1000dm3 --> 1dm3=1l --> R=315,000 l
3.Density of a substance; mass=114 g, volume=20cm3?
d=m/v=114/20=5.7 g/cm3
4. Convert: -60ºC to K --> k=ºC+273 -->k=(-60)+273=213K
190K to ºC--> ºC=k-273 -->ºC=190-273=-83ºC
5.The density of oil is 0.9g/cm3 . There are 99 kg of oil in a container.
What is the capacity of the container in litres?
99kg=99000g
d=m/v-->v=m/d=99000/0.9=110,000cm3 1l =1 dm3=1000cm3 -->
110,000cm3=110dm3=110 l
Visiting the Nature Classroom "Mar Menor"
Some students of bilingual classes; 1º A and 1ºB from IES LA FLOTA have been visiting the Aula de Naturaleza (Nature Classroom) in los Urrutias "Mar Menor". They have been looking at a very special ecosystem in the Region of Murcia: The Mar Menor and Surrounds. They were be able to get a better idea about this sea, learn about its features, its internal ecology, its formation, its uses, what it supplies and some of the enviromental problems affecting it. They have had a good day!.
