The digestive system

Hello everybody, after finishing unit 1 in science and before starting unit 2 we are studying the Digestive system as we think is the perfect link between the two units. In the students book there are no contents about it, so we have presented the topic through these videos and a worksheet.

The human body

The first science unit is called "The human body". In this unit we will revise things children already know and they will learn new things about what's inside our body.

One of the things we are revising are the 5 senses. Have a look at this video and find out what can you remember.

Do you remember this song? Don't forget that the five senses are: the sense of sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell. Due to the sense of sight we can see.

Practise what you know with these games

The new contents we're learning have to do with the inside of our body. Inside our body we have the skeleton, which is made of bones, muscles and important organs such as the brain, the heart and the lungs.

Watching this video you can reinforce what's been already taught in class about the skeletal system. Notice that it mentions many bones, at this level you only need to know the skull, humerous, femur, ribs and hips.

The alphabet

Last year in 1st grade we learnt the English sounds and the most common way of writing them, that is, we learnt how some letters sound. This year we are learning the name of the letters, that is, the alphabet.

Here there is a song in which you can listen both, the name of the letters and how they sound. It can help you to understand the difference.

El año pasado en 1º aprendimos los sonidos en inglés y las formas más comunes de escribirlos, es decir, aprendimos cómo suenan las letras. Este año vamos a aprender el nombre de las letras, es decir, el abecedario.

Aquí tenéis una canción en la que podéis escuchar ambos, los nombres de las letras y cómo suenan. Puede ayudaros a entender la diferencia.

And here is the alphabet song

Y aquí está la canción del abecedario

Let's revise

Hi kids, after practising speaking about our holidays it's time to get into some curricular topics. This year in Science we will start learning about what's inside our body. 

Let's revise what we already know playing these games

Hola chicos, después de hablar un poco sobre nuestras vacaciones es hora de entrar en materia. Este año en Science vamos a empezar a estudiar qué hay dentro de nuestro cuerpo. 

Vamos a practicar antes las partes del cuerpo que ya conocemos con estos juegos

Here you have the well known songs about the body we learnt last year.

Aquí tenéis también las canciones ya conocidas por todos que aprendimos el año pasado
