ACTIVIDADES DE RECUPERACIÓN Y TEMAS TRATADOS EN LA VIDEOCONFERENCIA HOY

For those who couldn't attend the videoconference today this are the main topics covered:
A FECHA DE HOY, Y A LA ESPERA DE QUE SE FIRMEN OFICIALMENTE INSTRUCCIONES MÁS PRECISAS:

     a)     NO HAY APROBADO GENERAL. Se calculará la nota final con las notas que ya tenemos y con lo que hagamos este trimestre. Seguiremos trabajando como hasta ahora.

      b)      Para los que tienen que recuperar la segunda evaluación: DE MOMENTO se deberán hacer ACTIVIDADES DE RECUPERACIÓN, descargar:

      Circulation and excretion RETAKE ACTIVITIES. 

      Digestive and respiratory systems. RETAKE ACTIVITIES.

      Además ya os mandé antes de la suspensión de las clases, copiar las preguntas de los dos jeopardy games sobre las unidades de digestivo, respiratorio, circulatorio y excretor. Teníais que responderlas sin mirar y luego corregirlas con boli rojo con las soluciones del jeopardy. Buscadlas, porque deberíais tenerlas ya hechas,  y me mandáis foto por mail junto con los dos archivos anteriores respondidos. FECHA LÍMITE 30 DE ABRIL.

      c)       El CUESTIONARIO GOOGLE lo voy a contar otra actividad de clase, con positivo o negativo, sin nota, porque no es realista (sin tiempo límite, pudiendo mirar apuntes o buscar en internet, y con fallos en la corrección automática por escribir de distinta forma la palabra). DE MOMENTO no hay fecha de examen del tema 5. Ya os avisaré.

      d) Os recuerdo, aunque ya lo expliqué en otro post, que los que querías podéis subscribiros al blog para recibir las notificaciones de las entradas que subo. Y que las tareas se mandan por mail, pero las dudas sobre las tareas, a no ser que sea algo muy personal, se hacen en los comentarios del post  donde se publica dicha tarea. 

     PRÓXIMA VIDEOCONFERENCIA EL VIERNES 24,  A LAS 10:00 para 3ºB y a las 11:00 para 3º A y C. Pondré las instrucciones y el link la tarde del jueves 23.

WHAT TO DO DURING EASTER FOR ENTRETAINING AND LEARNING

Don't worry, no homework for Easter, but as we still have to stay at home here you have some suggestions to do these days. It is voluntary, but I would really appreciate if you write a comment in this post telling me your opinion or which one did you like the most. I will count it as a possitive actitud in the subject. These are your options:

- Listen to this radio podcast in Spanish: Estrategias psicológicas para superar la cuarentena (first half of the program is the most interesting). You can also listen or download the podcast through the app iVox in your mobile phone.

- Watch this video about mirror neurons and how emotions are contagious. A Spanish psicologyst that explains it in 6 minutes. Neuronas espejo y empatía: Así se contagian las emociones

- Watch this documentary Inside the human body:  Michael Mosley shows how existence is a struggle and how, minute by minute, from your first breath to your last, your body performs countless small miracles to keep you alive.

- Read some of these books we suggest formt he biology deparment (you may download them in the internet or by them in amazon..) Libros de lectura para 3º de ESO Remember if you deliver a summary in English (1 page) and a paragraph with your own opinion about the book you can get  0,5 points (maximum) as long as you have a minum mark of 5 in the term.


Finally, some advise for everyone (based on scientific evidence):

- Eat healthy: specially fruits and vegetables hich in vitamin C (strawberry, kiwi, orange, tangerine...) and food high in vitamin D (specially eggs and "blue fish", like tuna, salmon or sardines), all of them good for your inmunitary system.

- Practice physical exercise at home (not moving enough could lead to decreasing of your muscular mass and gaining weight, and it can also help your brain developement and psicological health.

- Look into the distance will prevent myopia.

- Dance, jump, sing, laugh, hug your relatives if you can, it will help you to cheer up. YOU CAN'T CAN BE SAD IF YOU ARE JUMPING OR DANCING!
