Electrical charges

We are going to start a new topic, this time we are going to deal with electricity and magnetism.



  • What's happening in the photo?

  • Do thunder and lightning occur at the same time?
  • If so, Why don't we listen them at the same time?

LET'S HAVE A LOOK TO A EXPERIMENT, it will be very useful to understand the different concepts. 



 Do you think all objects have electric charges?

We can have 
      • objects positively charged.
      • objects negatively charged.
      • objects which are neutral.

When we rub to objects made of different materials, we are creating STATIC ELECTRICITY.


LET'S REVIEW THE VOCABURALY WITH THIS ACTIVITY.

DOMUND 2012: Misioneros De La Fe

En la tutoría de hoy vamos a trabajar el día del DOMUND, que celebraremos el Domingo.

DOMUND: Domingo Mundial de las Misiones.

Lo primero quizás ver cual es el cartel que nos anuncia esta campaña y analizarlo con nuestros compañeros. 
  • ¿Qué vemos en el cartel?
  • ¿ Cuál es su significado?
  • ¿ Cuál es el lema de este año?


Los misioneras son gente de carne y hueso, que deciden cambiar su vida y entregársela a los demás. ¿Qué sabes de los misioneros? ¿Has conocido alguna vez un misionero?

En el siguiente vídeo podrás saber sobre la vida de algunos misioneros que decidieron dejar su vida en España y viajar a Bolivia para compartir su vida con las gentes de allí. 



Después de conocer y profundizar en el día del DOMUND y en el trabajo de estos misioneros, quizás tendríamos que llegar a algún pequeño compromiso personal y de grupo para que también nosotros seamos misioneros a nuestra manera, o para ayudarles.
