International breakfast

Last friday we did a international breakfast with the social science group . Every group  had to choose a country and bring breakfast typical of this. We chose North Korea ,so we bought rice and meat and bring it to class.It was great but that kind of food for breakfast is  strong. Some groups they did very well, they brought the typical clothing or music, and a very detailed breakfast.In general it was funny because we can see hungry people eat the food very fast and Nestor asking for food by the tables as if it were a beggar.I think that if we had more time we could have done better.

The opinion of Lesli Samuel

The opinion of Lesli Samuel

Aranzazu and me sent to Lesli Samuel the address of our blog because Sergio wanted to know the opinion of Lesli Samuel about the dissection that we did. I think that he liked because he gave us the congratulations. I felt very good to know that he liked... :))

France

French breakfast

We did a very special breakfast. Each of the groups chose a country and brought the typical breakfast of that country. My group, formed by Julia, Lorena, Anabel  Ana and me, chose France. We brought croissants with ham and cheese or with jam and bread with butter. For drink we brought chocolate, milk with Cola Cao and orange juices. Julia and Anabel brought fruit. Ana and Lorena could not eat with us because Ana was in Germany and Loraine was sick.

In France the consumption of croissants, muffins, neapolitan of chocolate, bread raisins or other products of this type, usually reserved for special breakfasts. The typical French breakfast is bread with jam,baguettes with jam and butter. For drink coffee with milk, but also chocolate or tea. And juices or pieces of fruit.

With my breakfast :

         
                             

I felt very well but some full.

That breakfast was, approximately, about 1410 Kilo-calories.

The French breakfast is known for its high fat content, but for one day nothing happens.I really like this experience, I had fun seeing people dressed of other countries and seeing the food that they had brought, I hope repeat it ... :))

Heart disection

HEART DISECTION

First, we put all the materials on the table and take out the heart og bag. Lorena take a photo of the heart on the tray.

Second, we put the pencils in the vessels: a red pencil in the aorta arterie, an orange pencil in the pulmonary arterie, a yellow pencil in the cave vein and a light orange pencil in the pulmonary vein. then we differenciate the right part and the left part of the heart.

 Third, we cut the heart in two, to differenciate the ventricles. After located the ventricles , we put again the pencils into the vessels. And we find the valves.

 

                                                 

At the end Anabel washes the tray and the others materials and Ana and Lorena picked up cleaned the table.

PROBLEMS THAT WE HAVE DURING THIS PROJECT:

Anabel and Ana send tweets to many that are experts in biology that can helps us, but none us answer and we have to find a page in internet that could helps us in this project.

The problem with the tablets, the connection was bad and only seven groups had tablets and the others had to wait for them.                                                                                                                   

Lesli Samuel

This is the page of the Lord who gave us the page where we get all the information about how to dissect a heart. All this happened because Sergio gave us a page of twitter, where there were many twitters of science teachers.

Of all the teachers, we chose four. Only answered Lesli Samuel.

This is the conversation that we had with Lesli Samuel:

   

ThingLink

   Sergio gave us a program to put animations on the photos. The name of that program is ThingLink. Here are our two photos. In one of them leaves the explanation: What is the heart? and on the other are the major arteries and veins of the heart.

Conclusions

     Conclusion: It was  well because I  had never  done anything like that, but I 
thought that it would be better, I guess that I had very high expectations maybe we
 can do better because we weren't not very sure about where we have to cut or what are the aorta, we had it on paper but in practice was different, thank god that day had a stuffy nose from a cold... Carla was not as lucky as me. I just hope the next time Mary give us masks... I think in general the class behavior is good because everybody are concentrated and all had wanted to work , but at the end  some people thought it was not a good idea. We want to
repeat, with a less disgusting body part :)

      Conclusion of the group: I think in general the class behavior is good because everybody are concentrated and all had wanted to work. We made a little noise because it was a new experience and we were very excited. I really liked how they worked as a team and as they helped other groups, for example, Dani and Ismael helped us to put pencils and to cut the heart. I think, it was the first time that the class worked so well. I liked to see them so excited but at the end  some people thought it was not a good idea. We want to repeat , with a less disgusting body part.
