THE DAY OF THE SECOND CLASS ARRIVED!

Today, we have started the class by creating our "Group identity". It was fun to think about the name of the group and the catchprhase.

We couldn't think of anything, and after thinking about different things we have opted for:

• Name: Little Einsteins
• Catchphrase: "Faster than the electrons"

Afterwards it has been a lot of fun to also try to make a decent drawing, since none of the members of my group know how to draw well. In the end we have done as we could a planet (Saturn) and a test tube. This has been the final result. It could have been much worse.

Then the complicated part has arrived, where we had to assign different roles. After speaking to decide what role we were staying each of us decided to do it as follows:

• Facilitator: Andrea
• Secretary: Álvaro
• Spokesperson: Belén
• Timekeeper: me

During the second hour of today, we have seen a video. It was a TED talk by Kiran Sethi where he essentially conveyed the following message: "I can".

Then we have been discussing different methodologies and how to design a change. We have to take into account the following aspects to improve:

🠊Feel, imagine, do and share.



Next we have to discuss with a classmate a problem close to us that affects us and is related to earth sciences. We have thought about climate change, and the consequences are what just happened in Valencia, Catalonia, better use of water, enhance use of solar energy, traffic (too much), using less plastic...

During the class I felt good, I really liked the video we have seen and we have come closer to the subject relating it to our daily problems.

FIRST DAY OF CLASS

Today we had our first class of the subject "Earth Sciences at School". 

During this first class, Irene explained the schedule and the teaching guide of the subject. Afterwards, she explained that in the same way as last year, we had to make a learning diary, but this time, we will do it through this blog.


After all this, we have begun to talk about science, what is science and what is not, and I have discovered that astronomy was not a science.

Finally, we have seen a video that talks about earth sciences.

During the second hour of this first class, Irene has left us time to create our blog and upload the link to the virtual campus so she can access it.

And that has been all for today, I hope it is not a very complicated subject, since the sciences do not passionate me and we will do funny things.
