ENDANGERED SPECIES

UNIT 6 PROJECT:

Hi dear Bretonians! Today, many of us are aware that certain animals are endangered species; extinction is the complete disappearance of these species from Earth; animals and plants that are at risk of becoming extinct because of threats from changing environments or predators, are considered threatened or endangered. Human populations and activities will continue to grow and will threaten the Earth's habitat and capacity to sustain life.

These are your guidelines:

• Two-student group
• Select an endangered or extinct animal to research from the video above
• Create a Prezi.......Power Point presentation.....movie....about the selected species
• Where does it live? What does it eat?
• What are the primary ways in which these species are endangered? (Habitat destruction, garbage, hunting, fishing, killing the food supply, global warming, etc...?)
• Are they caused by human activities?
• Propose ways that the animal can be helped
• What does this mean for the future of our planet and the future generations?
• What kind of people , institutions, groups do you know that are helping to protect them today?
• Do you think that protecting endangered species is worth doing?
• Present your project to the classroom
• Creativity, message, layout, content and impact will be assessed
• DEADLINE: End of April

DESCRIBING A WORK OF ART

When we describe something, we want to give the reader a good idea of what it looks like.  When we describe a work of art we also want to describe its style and the mood that it portrays, as well as express our opinion.

We use adjectives when we write a description of a person, place or thing. When using more than one adjective, we write them in the following order:

             OPINION - SIZE- AGE- SHAPE- COLOUR

Choose a work of art from the list below and give me your opinion about it: style, objects, people in it, mood....

And ENJOY!!

2ND TERM PROJECT

EMOJI STORYTELLING

ENGLISH & COMPUTING PROJECT

Every generation has its own lingo and communication systems that make it unique with respect to its predecessors. Based on the mass use of IM apps, so-called emojis are the new revolution in digital language.We use emoticons daily on our smartphones.In the beginning, emoticons were created based on characters, but at the end of the 90's graphic equivalents in the form of small icons began to be used to represent all sorts of elements beyond different mood faces.Japan's largest mobile service provider,NTT DOCOMO, was the first to integrate it in its services but it wasn't until 2007 that these icons were introduced in UNICODE standard so they could be used on any system capable of reading it. The same emoticon looks different on an iPhone, an Android device, or the Google messaging tool.

Emojis have reached such a degree of integration in our daily lives that our brains have adapted to their use in ways that we're not even aware of.

So, our next project deals with emoticons and the way we can amazingly tell stories without using a single word!!

GUIDELINES FOR YOUR PROJECT:

• Make a two-student group
• Create a three- minute presentation 
• Relate a whole story just using emoticons: A story, a song, a fairytale, a news report, a biography, an invention, the school, anything you consider "emojitold"; of course, RUDENESS won't be allowed.
• You can record your presentation using the whiteboard in your Computer Lab; we think creating a video would make you feel more confident when telling the story.
• Make sure audio controls work properly.
• If you consider using another system will work, let us  know!
• Intonation will be very important!
• Further details will be provided by María Vaquero

• DEADLINE: 20TH FEBRUARY

                      ENJOY DEAR BRETONIANS!
