UNIT 1: HUMAN BEINGS AND HEALTH
LET'S LEARN ABOUT THE HUMAN BODY...


The circulatory system moves blood around our body. That is what we call blood circulation.
Our blood has 2 main FUNCTIONS:
- It transports nutrients and oxygen to the different parts of our body.
- It collects waste substances (the substances our body doesn't need).

Blood travels around our body through blood vessels.
There are 3 different types of blood vessels:
- Arteries carry blood away from the heart to the rest of the body. They carry oxygenated blood (blood with oxygen) that is bright red.
- Veins carry blood back to the heart from the rest of the body. They carry deoxygenated blood (blood with carbon dioxide) that is dark red.

INTERACTION
As we learnt in class, we interact with each other and the world since we are born and in many ways. But... what do we need to interact? Exactly! Our nervous system, the five senses and the locomotor system.
Here you have some videos to remember important facts about them:
Check your knowledge about this section in the following links:
REPRODUCTION
It's turn for the third vital function to be learnt: reproduction.
Like many other living things, human beings reproduce by sexual reproduction... What does it mean? We need female and male reproductive cells to reproduce.

2nd TERM.
All living things carry out the three life processes but in different ways... do you remember their names? That's right: nutrition, interaction and reproduction.
To make the study of living things easier we divide them into kingdoms: the Animal, Plant and Fungi Kingdom. Look at the following pictures, can you guess what kingdom do they belong?
1. Plant Kingdom 2. Animal Kingdom 3. Fungi Kingdom


ANIMAL KINGDOM
Have a look at the following presentation of unit 3 made using Prezi:
and at this set of activities to learn, play and review made with Quizlet:
Animals can be classified into vertebrate and invertebrate. Do you remember the difference between them?
VERTEBRATE ANIMALS
All vertebrate animals have a backbone. We can classify vertebrates into five groups: mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish.
INVERTEBRATE ANIMALS
An invertebrate is an animal without a backbone. More than 90% of all living animal species are invertebrates. We can classify them into six groups: mollusks, jellyfish, sponges, echinoderms, annelids/worms and arthropods.
INVERTEBRATES

Plants are different from animals because of two main things... do you remember them? They to do with movement and nutrition... You're right! They can't move around and they make their own food.
We can classify plants in three main groups: grasses, bushes and trees. Looking at the following pictures, match them with their proper definition:
Definition 1: Plants that have a flexible, green stem and are usually short. They grow quickly.
Definition 2: Plants with one big woody stem, called trunk. The branches grow high above the ground. They grow slowly. They are the tallest plants and live the longest.
Definition 3: Plants that have a woody stem but not a trunk. The branches grow near the ground.
Now, watch the following video to learn a bit more about types of plants and their characteristics.
NUTRITION
As you could see briefly in the video, plants produce their own food by photosynthesis. Can you explain it to your parents or a friend? Why is it so important?
Plants are fundamental for the food chain and for our respiration.
REPRODUCTION
Plants reproduce by sexual and/or asexual reproduction. What's the difference between them?
- In sexual reproduction pollen goes from one flower to another.
- In asexual reproduction there are no flowers or fertilisation.
According to this, do you remember the name of the following types of reproduction?
1. Insect pollination 2. Wind pollination 3. Self-pollination 4. Runners 5. Tubers
Now, practice on your plants' knowledge:

UNIT 4 THE EARTH
PLANET EARTH
Planet Earth is also called 'the blue planet' because it's made up mostly of water. It is the third planet in the Solar System... Do you remember how many planets we can find in it? What are the names?
- we use them to describe a location on the Earth's surface.
- Meridians are vertical lines. Meridian 0º is Greenwich Meridian. Meridians are measured in degrees E or W.
- Parallels are horizontal lines . Parallel 0º is the Equator. Parallels are measured in degrees N or S.
THE EARTH'S MOVEMENTS

The Earth has two different movements: revolution and rotation. Would you be able to explain in which consists each of them?
THE EARTH'S LAYERS
DISCOVERIES
Astronomers study the Sun, Moon, planets and other objects in space.
Thanks to them, we know that the Earth is not flat as they originally believed... what did they find in Ancient History?
You're right, they calculated the Earth was a sphere.
Also, they discovered planets such as Uranus and Neptune using telescopes.

REMEMBER!
- WEATHER is the atmospheric situation which occurs in a given moment and in a specific place. It can change from day to day.
- We can say the weather is sunny, cloudy, windy...
- CLIMATE is the combination of atmospheric conditions that occur in a place for a prolonged period of time. The elements that make up climate are: temperature, precipitation, humidity, pressure and winds.
- We can say the climate is hot, temperate or cold.
Get to know more about climate here!
CLIMATE ZONES
As we have just learnt, we could say there are three main climate zones on Earth: the Hot or Torrid Zone, the Temperate Zones and the Cold or Frigid Zones.

- Rivers
- Oceans
- Lakes
- Ice caps
- Seas
- Groundwater
(Salt water: oceans and seas; fresh water: rivers, lakes, groundwater and ice caps)
THE WATER CYCLE
The amount of water on Earth never changes. But it does change state... Can you name the three states we know? You're right: solid, liquid and gas.
These different states occur in the constant round of changes known the water cycle.
Videos about the water cycle HERE, HERE AND HERE
The water cycle has four main stages... Unscramble the letters to get their names:

ROCKS AND MINERALS
Wow, isn't Earth amazing? We have learnt that it has different layers (geosphere, atmosphere and hydrosphere) and we can now say a lot of each of them. Do you remember which is made up of rock?
You're right! The geosphere, specifically the crust, is full of rocks and minerals. Keep reading to know more.
Minerals are substances that are naturally formed in the Earth. They can exist on their own and they can combine with other minerals to make rocks.
Rocks are chunks of minerals, that is, they are made up of one or more minerals. Then, rocks are generally not uniform. There are three main different types of rocks: igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic.
Interesting, isn't it? Watch the following videos for a further explanation and discover the wonders that you can find outside!
Let's go on a tour around the world and discover where people have used rocks and minerals throughout history!

Everything around us is matter. We can define matter as everything that has weight and takes up space or has volume.
Matter comes in different states... Do you remember the three most common states? You're right: solid, liquid and gas.
STATES OF MATTER
As we have studied, the three most common states of matter are known as solid, liquid and gas. Let's check the following video and anchor chart to refresh our minds about their characteristics!
So... will you classify properly the following things? Check your knowledge on matter states!
Solid: people, bell, crayons, computer, books, soccer ball, pear, hat, ice, flowers.
Liquid: rain, soda, glue, syrup, lemonade, milk, gasoline.
Gas: Sun, helium, rocket exhaust, smoke, steam, hot air, oxygen.
PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS
We use wood, metal, plastic, glass and fabric to make most everyday objects, but... do you know how to describe them?
We can also classify materials in thermal insulators and thermal conductors. Can you remember the difference?
- Thermal conductors can get very hot as their molecules are free to move about. Examples: water, glass and metal.
- Thermal insulators can't get hot as their molecules are close together and can't move about. Examples: plastic, fabric and wood.
Here we go again... Will you be able to classify the following materials in conductor or insulator?
MIXTURES AND SOLUTIONS
FORCES
Now that we can define matter and identify materials' properties, let's tack about motion and forces... Have you ever wondered why we can move and walk on our feet, airplanes fly or fish swim?
We can't see forces, but we can feel their effect. For example, forces make things move or stop. They can change the shape of an object or even break it. They make things fall to the ground or stay still. They also make things float or sink.
PUSH AND PULL FORCES
- Balanced forces don't make an object move as the forces applied are opposite and equal.
- Unbalanced forces can make an object start moving, speed up, slow down, change direction or stop.
Look at the following pictures... What happened in each of them?
As you can see, in both pictures we can find some people playing tug of war. What's the difference?
- In the top one, they apply the same force (300 Newtons) in opposite ways. Because the forces are balanced, no one is moving.
- In the bottom one, they apply different forces in opposite ways (the left team is pulling 100 Newtons more than the right team). Because the forces are unbalanced, the team on the right is moving onwards.
Let's practice a bit more identifying balanced and unbalanced forces!
GRAVITY AND WEIGHT
Gravity is a non-contact, pull force. All masses have gravity.
Is the force of gravity stronger on the Earth or on the moon? Why? Mass is the amount of matter in an object. It is measured in kilograms (kg). Weight is a force. It is mass x gravity. It is measured in newtons (N). Do you remember who discovered gravity over 300 years ago? You're right, Isaac Newton! Learn more about gravity and find very interesting activities related to it here: Gravity Pulls Things Down [Video, Discussion Questions, Vocabulary, Reading, Experiment and Quiz] Is the force of gravity stronger on the Earth or on the Moon? Why? Remember that mass and weight aren't the same, are they?
UPTHRUST AND FLOATATION Upthrust is a contact, push force applied by water and air. It pushes objects in air and water up. The mass and volume of an object influence the amount of upthrust:
|
Archimedes, an Ancient Greek scientist, discovered upthrust in his bath over 2000 years ago!
En la serie de televisión Érase una vez… los inventores
∴ Experiment time! ∴ Do you want to check what Archimedes discovered? Watch the following videos and, if your parents let you, try them and tell us in class your results!
SIMPLE MACHINES We are almost done with this unit, guys! Now that we know a lot about matter and forces, let's talk about the instruments that make our life easier... You're right, machines! The first ones were simple machines with one or two parts. They used energy from people or animals to do work. Watch these videos to get to know more about them! Remember:
Some examples of lever are see-saws and scissors.
Some examples of pulley are wells and blinds.
Some examples of inclined plane are a slide and an emergency ramp. Now it's your turn... can you think about more examples of simple machines around your city? If you find any of them, tell us in class! ∴ Experiment time! ∴ Do you want to feel like an authentic engineer? Watch the following videos and decide which simple machine you want to build!

THE IBERIAN PENINSULA IN ANCIENT HISTORY
![]() Wow, guys... Can you feel it? The end of the school year is in the air! We know you're doing a great effort, so let's finish it learning a bit more about history. T time, we will get to know more about Ancient Times in the Iberian Peninsula. Let's zoom in!
THE START OF ANCIENT HISTORY IN SPAIN First, let's refresh our minds... Do you remember which civilisations where living in the Iberian Peninsula at the end of Prehistory, during the Metal Ages? You're right! The Celts and Iberians (Celtiberians). From about the 10th century B.C., people from three civilisations started to come to the Iberian Peninsula looking for metals. They also wanted to trade with the Celts and Iberians. They established colonies. Which were these three civilisations? Unscramble the letters to solve the mistery!
Watch the following videos to review what we have learnt about the three colonizers.
Finally, remember that thanks to Greeks, Phoenicians and Carthaginians, there were introduced:
Watch these videos about the Greeks, the Carthaginians and the Phoenicians HERE anD HERE Why did the Phoenicians, Carthaginians and Phoenicians come to the Iberian peninsula? Who established colonies in Cataluña, Andalucia, Murcia and the Balearic Islands? Can you find these autonomous communities in the map? Watch videos about the Romans: here and here. ColonisationPara saber más Ancient History on the Iberian Peninsula🍀🍀 🌱 🍀🍀
From 1100BC, Mediterranean cultures began arriving on the Iberian Peninsula and founding colonies. They were the Phoenicians, Ancients Greeks and Carthaginians.
What they all had in common was that their cultures were based on urban-living trade.
The Phoenicians:
The Ancient Greeks:
The Carthaginians:
¯\_(ツ)_/¯Watch these videos to learn more!
Do you think the Iberian Peninsula was crowded at that time? Well... another civilisation wanted to come: Rome! The Romans came from the Italian Peninsula. The Romans and Carthaginians were rivals. They both wanted to control the Mediterranean Sea. The Romans also fought different wars against the Celtiberians for almost 200 years. As you've seen, the Iberian Peninsula changed a lot during Ancient History... Let's have a look at these maps to review.
The Roman Empire on the Iberian Peninsula:
The Roma conquest of The Iberian Peninsula began in Emporio in 218 BC. It was a gradual conquest and finished the 19BC.
The Romans called the land Hispania.
Important figures and events:
Viriatus
Numantia was a Celtiberian town.
Roman Hispania:The Roman conquest ended in 19 B. C. This was when the Romans controlled all of the peninsula and called it Hispania. They divided Hispania into provinces and changed how the people of the Iberian Peninsula lived. Do you remember how these changes are called? That's it, Romanisation! Language: Latin. Many modern languages are based on Latin, they are called Romance Languages. Romance Languages: Spanish, French, Italian, Romanian... Religion: Emperor Constantine converted to Christianity in AD 312.
Seneca was born in Corduba (Córdoba) in 4 BC. He became tutor and advisor of Emperor Nero.
Trajan became emperor of Rome in AD 98. He constructed a column in The Roman Forum to celebrate his victory in Dacia (Romania).
Hadrian became emperor in AD 117. He built a stone wall to separate the Celtic tribes in Caledonia (Scotland) from the rest of Roman Britannia (Britain).
