A etwinning tile

I made a "etwinning tile" for the 5th birthday of etwinning.




The "etwinning tile" will stay in my school as a reminder of a very special year for us all.

Photos and postcards from Poland

Some photos and postcards from Poland decorate our classroom.



The april fair

From saetas (religious flamenco songs) to sevillanas (Seville flamenco songs)... Once the pointed hoods, trumpets and drums of Easter week are left behind, it is the turn of flounces, ornamental combs, castanets, and, above all, the joy of a people who positively give off imagination and good humour. Seville is more beautiful than ever during the fair, and, with music and jubilation, it displays the essence of this magical city: its joyful spirit and the good nature of its people.

Here's a video about the Fair.

Up or down?

To make our experiment, we need this materials:
Two boxes
Two sticks
Two funnels
A sticky
A cardboard cylinder

To make or experiments, we need to prepare a pair of sticks tilts with two boxes.
Then we fix two funnels with a sticky, to make our double funnel.

If we drop a cardboard cylinder in the sticks, we can see that it goes down because of the action of gravity. However, if we drop our double funnel in the sticks, we can see it goes up.

If we pay attention, in the upper part of the tiet sticks, it increases the separation of the sticks and it makes that when the funnels roll up, its center of gravity (that coincides with the geometric center) goes down.

So the funnel, the same as the cardboard cylinder, goes down because of the action of gravity.

Equilibrio con dos tenedores, un palillo y fuego.

Equilibrio con dos tenedores, un palillo y fuego.
Il equilibrio tra due forchette, un stuzzicadenti e il fuoco

Para realizar nuestro experimento necesitamos un par de tenedores, un palillo, un vaso y unas cerillas.
Per fare il nostro esperimento abbiamo due forchette, un stuzzicadenti, un bicchiere e cerini
Negrita

Entrelazamos los dos tenedores con el palillo y dejamos el conjunto en equilibrio en el borde de un vaso. El equilibrio se logra al estar el centro de gravedad del conjunto por debajo del punto de apoyo.
Facciamo una cruce tra le due forchette e il stuzzicadenti e dopo lasciamo tutto en equilibrio nel bordo del bicchiere. Riusciamo il equilibrio per essere il centro di gravità di tutto sotto il punto de appoggio.

¿Qué sucede si quemamos el extremo del palillo que está dentro del vaso?
Cosa succede si cominciamo a bruciane il stuzzicadenti che si trova nel bichiere?

Una parte del palillo se quema pero la llama se apaga al llegar al borde del vaso y se mantiene el equilibrio de los tenedores.
La chiama comincia a passare per il stuzzicadenti, ma da subito si spegne quando arriva al bordo del bichiere e tutto se trova ancora in equilibrio.

La pérdida de masa del palillo que se quema no afecta significativamente al centro de gravedad que continúa por debajo del punto de apoyo.
In fatti, avere perso la massa del stuzzicadenti non è neccesario per rimanere le forchette e il stuzzicadenti nel equilibrio perchè il centro di gravità è sotto il punto di apoggio.
