During the first term, sixth grade students dealt with energy concept and now it is the turn for matter. ]]> 2018-05-04 10:23:23 UTC https://padlet.com/annabespinalt/y7x1nf8a695k/wish/257972088 annabespinalt https://padlet.com/annabespinalt/y7x1nf8a695k/wish/257973525 What are you made of and why does matter matter?]]> 2018-05-04 10:31:02 UTC https://padlet.com/annabespinalt/y7x1nf8a695k/wish/257973525 annabespinalt https://padlet.com/annabespinalt/y7x1nf8a695k/wish/257973726

They will also have to collaborate and cooperate with their teammates in order to create and organize the relevant content. Thus, the responsibility of the teaching and learning process is practically entirely theirs. They will build up self confidence and esteem since they will have to teach their topic as well as awareness of how to use the linguistic and non linguistic strategies to make oneself understood.]]> 2018-05-07 11:16:47 UTC https://padlet.com/annabespinalt/y7x1nf8a695k/wish/258469951 annabespinalt https://padlet.com/annabespinalt/y7x1nf8a695k/wish/258470705
This project, in its original design, included experiments and to produce an informational brochure about easy experiments with matter to do at home for kids. However, the research time was widen due to the students engagement on keep on collecting information as well as the extra amount of time to prepare an oral exposition about the topic has also consumed plenty of time. In addition, the time for implementing it was just of 45 minutes per week. Thus, the initial projects has suffered some changes. 

Having said that, the balance is completely positive as well as the results. The students have already asked to do the next science topic in a project mode arrangement.
