Unit 2. Point 2: the fief

Hello, my friends! Don not worry! The activity is to be done quickly. It is an easy question. Copy this text about the fief into your notebook and translate it into Spanish. Look up on the dictionary any unknown word. Have a nice weekend.

Fiefin European feudal society, a vassal’s source of income, held from his lord in exchange for services. The fief constituted the central institution of feudal society (see feudalism). It normally consisted of landto which a number of unfree peasants were attached; the land was supposed to be sufficient to support the vassal and to secure his knight service for the lord. Its size varied greatly, according to the income it could provide. It has been calculated that a fief needed from 15 to 30 peasant families to maintain one knightly household. Fief sizes varied widely, ranging from huge estates and whole provinces to a plot of a few acres. Besides land, dignities and offices and money rents were also given in fief.

Unit 2: points 2 and 3

Hello, everyone!!
Here you have the rest of the activities to develop the point 2 (tectonic plates and relief formation) and the activity to develop the following 3rd point (about the changes of the relief). Before starting a new point of the index, do not forget to write its title.

Point 2
Do this activity below the activities you have already done about the video that we have corrected in class. Copy these tables into your notebook and fill them in Spanish. Use the Spanish book to get the information (all the information is in the Spanish book). In order to translate the concepts into English you can use either a dictionary or the English book. There is a concept per each row. Do not forget to define it in Spanish and to translate it into English
Rotate the page to landscape orientation and use a side for each table. 

Haz esta actividad debajo de las actividades que has hecho ya sobre el vídeo que hemos corregido en clase. Copia estas tablas en tu cuaderno y rellénalas en español. Usa el libro en español para obtener la información (todo está en el libro en español). Hay un concepto por cada fila. No olvides definir cada uno en español y traducirlo al inglés. 
Por la hoja en sentido horizontal y usa una hoja para cada tabla.









Point 3

Read this text and answer the questions below. You might need the meaning of the following words. If you need it, look up the rest of the words on the dictionary.

- "To get worn down": Desgastar.
- Beat: golpear. En esta frase quiere decir que no hay nada que erosione más el Gran Cañón que el agua del río Colorado.

What causes valleys to form? Why do streams and lakes get muddy after a rain storm? Why are the rocks at the bottom of a river usually round? The answer to all these questions is EROSION!
Erosion is the process by which the surface of the Earth gets worn down. Erosion can be caused by natural elements such as wind and glacial ice. But anyone who has ever seen a picture of the Grand Canyon knows that nothing beats the slow steady movement of water when it comes to changing the Earth.
The key to erosion is something called "fluid flow." Water, air, and even ice are fluids because they tend to flow from one place to another due to the force of gravity. Of the three, liquid water is the most common agent of erosion because there's so much of it on the surface of the Earth.

a) Define in a line at most what erosion is.
b) What are the natural elements that cause the erosion?
c) What is the most common agent of erosion? Why?

Have a nice weekend!

Notas del examen de la 2 GM


Buenas tardes:
Estas son las notas de los aprobados. Me he enfadado un poco - ¡¡¡el examen era muy fácil!!!- porque siempre  espero más nota, sobre todo de algun@s, que estoy seguro que controlan un montón, pero a la hora del examen fallan en:
- Situar en el espacio y en el tiempo. Directamente se olvidan de decir cuándo pasó y dónde...
- Relacionan el texto con todas las causas de la guerra y sólo hay que relacionarlo con las causas que están en él. De esta forma se sabe si comprendéis el texto o no.
- Os cuesta captar la atención del lector en las redacciones. Empezáis a dar datos de cómo vivían en Auschwitz, sin hacer una pequeña introducción...

 Los que figuran en lista con un suspenso quiere decir que no tendrían que presentarse a la recuperación de la 3ª evaluación, porque la media les daría al menos para llegar al 5.
A tod@s os recuerdo que el proyecto es un 20% del total de la nota de la 3ª y que el debate subirá nota también como sigue:
- 5-6: 0.5 puntos
- 7-8: 0.75 puntos.
- 8-9: 1 punto
Tomaroslo en serio porque es una subida considerable.

Águila, Miguel: 6
Baeza, Fernando: 9
Drejan, Razvan: 7,7
Estévez, Natalia: 8.3
Frías, Miguel Ángel: 4,6
Galdeano, Sandra: 4,25
García, Manuel: 5,75
Gázquez, Rodrigo: 9,5
Gil, Sergio: 8,25
Gilabert, Carlos: 6
Gómez, Noelia: 4,3
Gómez, Adrián: 5,2
Jiménez, David: 6
López, Iker: 4,9
Martín, Yolanda: 5,25

Herramientas interesantes para la realización del vídeo del proyecto

Aquí os dejo los enlaces:
Cuatro herramientas para crear videos educativos

Los mejores diez programas gratuitos para la edición de videos

Espero que os sirvan de ayuda.

Cómo usar y descargarse videoescribe

Ya os he hablado en clase de la aplicación para utilizar videoescribe (el programa que convierte imágenes, texto, voz en un video). Es sencillo de usar. Os voy a dar a continuación una breves instrucciones para usarlo y descargarlo, pues la versión online sólo se puede usar siete días.

Primero meteos en este enlace, que es el vídeo del tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ll9bgB4Wmy8

Cuando os metáis veréis que en la descripción del vídeo aparece el siguiente enlace: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B10KXiIHZXYzbVN5OHNmYzB1aGc/view

Este es el enlace a la carpeta de Drive con la que comienza el vídeo y de donde debéis descargar el programa. 

Cuando lo descarguéis veréis que es un archivo comprimido, así que con el botón derecho le dais a extraer (todo esto aparece en el tutorial), abrís la carpeta extraída y lo instaláis. 

Una vez instalado, pincháis sobre el icono del programa con el botón derecho y le dáis a abrir en ubicación. Volvéis a la carpeta que os descargasteis y en la carpeta de "crack" copiáis el archivo que hay dentro y lo pegáis en la otra carpeta (la que habeis abierto desde el icono del programa). Le dais a pegar y reemplazar.

Ahora ya podéis abrir el programa. Os pedirá una cuenta y una contraseña. Tenéis que poner la que dice el tutorial:
- Contraseña: 1234

¡Mucha suerte! Si tenéis alguna duda preguntadme en clase.

World war I and enterwar period exam

These are the questions to be focused on to prepare the exam. Remember that the infography will be the 30% of the mark.

- Causes of the war. You should explain all the causes of the war. It might appear a text to recognize the causes and comment them.

- Alliance system: we worked this point by a crossword.

- Development of the war and its features. Pay attention to the novelties of this war (weapons, use of the propaganda, means of communication...) and the life in the trenches. We read a sodier´s letter about Christmas truce.

- Peace treaties: Focus on the Versailles treaty, worked by a crossword.

- Consequences: What changes are there in the political map of Europe. Compare both maps, before and after the war.

- Pictures: Review the pictures that are uploaded on this blog. You should relate them to an aspect of the war.

- Russian revolutions: chronological outline; text worked in class about the two revolutions (matching paragraphs) and videos (both in English and in Spanish, uploaded on this blog).
It is very important to difference the bourgeois revolution and the Bolshevik revolution, to know the main politicians and revolutionaries (Lenin, Kerensky, Trotsky) as well as Czar Nicholas II; to know the differences between the liberal ideas and the communist ones; to explain Lenin´s program to gain soviet´s support (all the power to the soviets: peace, bread and land).

- Crash of  1929. Causes and consequences.
