SAINT PATRICK’S DAY 2021

                           

   

On 17th March ESO students have been learning about Irish culture through the celebration of Saint Patrick’s Day. They have done some research on typical Irish terms like Shamrock, Eire or Gaelic. They have also been working on the tradition of Saint Patrick’s Day and finally they have taken part in an Irish dancing workshop in which they have experienced what an Irish jig is. If you want to feel the «Irish experience» at Élaios, click on the image below to see the video:

CHEMICAL ELEMENTS: THE BUILDING BLOCKS OF THE UNIVERSE

The chemical elements are the building blocks which the Universe is made of. Everything around us, even ourselves, is built up with them, atom by atom. Opposite the library you can see the Periodic Table that Physics and Chemistry teacher Fabiola Lacueva’s 2nd ESO students have built «cube by cube» and «cell by cell».

 

Each side of the cubes shows the information about each chemical element. Some of the cubes are in Spanish and some others in English (the latter made by 2nd ESO BRIT students). The different colours of cardboard help to distinguish between metals (purple), semimetals (light green), nonmetals (dark green) and noble gases (orange). As for the ink colour of the written text, it represents the different usual physical states, that is to say, black for solids, red for liquids and green for gases.
