With this post you are going to evaluate your partner's videos and popplets following the rubric and answering to this questionaire.




When you finish reading the rubric and you have everything clear in your mind, you can start watching your partners video and answering the questions to evaluate it. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO HAVE CLEAR WHAT YOU HAVE TO LOOK FOR AND WHAT ARE THE CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION.


You will send your evaluation through this Google Form. DON'T FORGET TO CLICK ON SUBMIT AT THE END.

Mind maps about PREHISTORY AND ANTIQUITY (Science Year 5-Unit12)

Utilizando las TIC para repasar, una vez terminada la unidad sobre LA PREHISTORIA Y LA EDAD ANTIGUA: la Prehistoria,  la Península Iberica en los tiempos Prerromanos, y  la "Hispania" Romana,  trabajamos como siempre, realizamos nuestro mapa conceptual con Popplet.




Después los alumnos graban su explicación con la aplicación Screencast-O-Matic. 



Publican su entrada en su Portfolio Personal creado dentro de los blogs personales de Kidblog.

Roman Hispania

In the previous lessons we have learnt about THE PREHISTORY and THE IBERIAN PENINSULA IN PRE-ROMAN TIMES.

Now we are going to finish this topic talking about ROMAN HISPANIA. To introduce this topic we are going to use a video about a Spanish City. At the end of the video you have to answer this question:

  • What reminds or things does the video show us about Roman Times?



ROMAN TIMES. 
2000 years ago Romans defeated the Cartaginiasn. 
The peninsula became part of Roman Empire: HISPANIA
At the end conquered tribes adopted Roman customs and spoke latin.

Hispania was Roman for 600 years.

After about 400 A.D the Roman Empire weakened.
Visigothic entered in the peninsula from the north part of Europe.

ROMAN CITIES.
The Roman founded many cities like Tarraco (Tarragona), Sagunto and Hispalis (Sevilla)

They were modelled on Rome.
They had two main streets and the forum 
(large public square for important events)

Roman cities were connected by excellent stone roads.


ROMAN ARCHITECTURE 

Temples were used for religious purposes


Theatres, amphitheatres and circuses were used for entertainment.

Aqueducts transported water.

Public bath houses used hot water. 

LET'S REVIEW WHAT YOU HAVE LEARNT.




Let's use the THINKING ROUTINE: THE TRAFFIC LIGHTS. With the green you will say what you know, in orange what you need some support to achieve it and in red what you haven't achive or you have lot of problems.

The Iberian Península in pre-Roman times

Today we are going to work with a new THINKING ROUTINE. It is called THE MISTERY QUESTION. You have to think on what we learnt the last lesson: THE PREHISTORY. Once you have in mind you have to create a question that maybe one of your partners could not understand. The teacher will try to answer and explain better that points.

Once we have solved all the questions and everything is clear we are going to watch a video to learn a bit mor about PRE-ROMAN TIMES. Pay attention because at the end of the video you have to answer the following questions:

  • Where is the place the video is talking about?
  • What was the main crop iberians had?



PRE-ROMAN TIMES
The peninsula was inhabited by Iberians and Celtic tribes.
Then Phoenicians, Greeks and Cartigians came through Mediterranian Seas.

THE IBERIANS AND THE CELTS
Iberians lived in the east and south.
They lived in walled settelments and rectangular houses, they are divided into tribes.
They were herders, farmers, traders and craftsmen.


Celts lived in the centre and the north.
They lived in walled settements with round houses, they are divided into tribes. 
They were herders, farmers and expert metalworkers.


COLONIES
Phoenicians came from Asia, and settled on the southern coast.
Cadiz and Almunecar.


Greeks came from Greece, settled in the Mediterranean coast.
Denia and Ampuria.


Carthaginians came form North Africa, settled in the Mediterranean coast.
Cartagena. 


LET'S PLAY AND CONTINUE LEARNING:

PREHISTORY

Let's start a new topic, as we are used to, we are going to start with a THINKING ROUTINE. We are going to look for CSI (Colour, Symbol, Image). In the following chart you will have to colour, look for a symbol and draw an image about the topic PREHISTORY. 


We will watch this video about general information about prehistory. At the end of it you will have to answer this question:
  • What are the characteristics of prehistoric hunter?
  • What are the characteristics of HOMO ERECTUS?
  • What are the characteristica NEANTHERTAL?



PREHISTORY
The long period before the invention of writing. 

Stone Age.

Half million years ago. Stone tools were used.


Paleolithic period.
People moved from place to place.
Hunting, fishing and gathering plants.


Neolitic period. 
People lived permanently in one place. 
Farmers, crops, domestic animals.


Metal Ages.

Seven thounsand year ago. Metal tools were used.
The wheel was invented.
First cities were built. 


FIRST CRAFTSMEN
Paleolithic Period: They made tools and weapons hitting one stone against another.

Neolithic Period: They made polished stone tools and weapons, also pots and cloth.

Metal Ages: They made metal tools, weapons and jewellery.

FIRST ARTISTS
Cave paintings, like Altamira Cave, are manificent works of art.
They often paint animals. 

LET'S REVIEW ALL YOU HAVE LEARNT.

Prehistory in the Iberian Peninsula.

We are going to learn about another topic of Science, from this moment to the end of the school year we are going to focus our lesson on the HISTORY OF SPAIN. To learn history is very important because this will be the way you will understand most of the things that are taking place now.

LET'S HAVE A LOOK TO THESE PHOTOS AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS:




  • What can you see in the two pictures?
  • What are these things made of?
  • Which ones were made first?
THE FOLLOWING VIDEO WILL HELP YOU TO UNDERSTAND THE LIFE IN THE PREHISTORY PERIOD. 


PALEOLITIC PERIOD:


  • Million years ago, Iberian Peninsula was inhabited by homids or early humans beings. Modern people appeared in Spain about 35.000 years ago.
  • They were nomads, they moved from place to place.
  • They lived in caves or huts.
  • They lived in family groups called clans.
  • They obtained their food hunting, fishing and gathering plants. 
NEOLITIC PERIOD:


  • People became sedentary. They built settlements.
  • People lived in tribes, they were larger than clans.
  • Each member of the tribe had a specific job  (cultivating th land, looking after animals, making tools or weapons)
THE METAL AGES:

  • They used metals for weapons and tools.
  • Settlements became villages, with walls for protections.
  • Every village was run by a chieftain. 
PREHISTORY HERITAGE:
Prehistory people were the first:
  • To use fires to cook and protect themselves from the cold.
  • To make clay pots.
  • To use animal hair and looms to make cloths.
  • Create art forms such as cave paintings. 
LET'S REVIEW WHAT YOU HAVE LEARNT WITH THIS ACTIVITY. 



If you want to learn a bit more about PREHISTORY, you will play to this game about PREHISTORY ANIMALS.
