Ecosystems objectives and tasks.

Escribo en español los objetivos principales para esta unidad para que las familias podáis entenderlos:

• Conocer qué entendemos por un ecosistema.
• Entender cómo los animales y las plantas interactuan con su hábitat.
• Poder ordenar seres vivos de un ecosistema en cadenas alimenticias simples.
• Conocer algunos tipos distintos de ecosistema: Bosque tropical, desierto, mar....
• Ser capaces de distinguir distintos hábitats, seres vivos característicos , interacciones y cadenas alimenticias en distintos ecosistemas.
• Mostrar una actitud de respeto hacia el mantenimiento de los ecosistemas.

Además, como siempre venimos haciendo a través de las diferentes actividades se trabajarán objetivos lingüísticos y trabajaremos comparativos ( deserts are hotter places than rainforests), uso de superlativos, ordenación de secuencias para hacer cadenas alimenticias, descripciones, hablar del clima... , trabajaremso cuentos, distintos tipos de textos orales y escritos, comprensión lectora...

Los alumnos como tarea final elaborarán un diorama en el que plasparán un tipo de ecosistema y hablarán sobre él, después elaborarán un trabajo muy sencillo sobre distintos ecosistemas. Además haremos una salida al parque para aplicar los conocimientos al mundo real.

• We have sung a song and a miserable pumpkin has changed into a spooky Jack O´Lattern.
• We have prepared a Jack O´Lattern with the life cycle of a pumpkin.
