botanic gardens october 26

http://www.tufacilweb.com/admin/imagen/?id=377&anc=400

I can see that these trees like very different from what I see every day because they are very green and with more history. They also look like Narnia trees. I think thet there are maybe little birds that tweak for these trees.
Maybe these trees taste good because of there green atractive leaves.
I think that these trees feel a little rough because of the years that they have. I hope also that these trees smell really good.

Coal mining: Comprehension Questions

  1.  Underground mining is more dangerous because there can be movements that could destroy the mine and let many people die. But on the other hand, surface mining is on open air, not like underground mining that is underneath the ground.
  2. In surface mining, they use trucks, large earth moving machines and bulldozers.
  3. The tunnels are used for traveling throughout the mine, moving coal from place to place and allowing air to circulate in the mine.
  4. A conveyor belt takes coal out of the mine.
  5. There are three types of underground mines: slope, drift, and shaft. 
Slope:  When the coal seam is close to the surface but too deep to use
surface mining, a slope mine can be built. In a slope mine a tunnel
slants down from the surface to the coal seam.

Drift: A drift mine is built when the coal seam lies in the side of a hill or mountain. Drift mines may also be built in a surface mine that has become too deep.

Shaft: These mines may be 125 to 1,000 feet deep. A large hole, or shaft, is drilled down into the ground until it reaches the coal seam.









Glossary:
  1. Dragline: a large machine used in the surface mining process to remove overburned, or layers of earth and rock, covering a coal seam.
  2. Subbituminous: type of coal with lower sulphur content than other types and so is cleaner-burning found mainly in western states and of US and Alaska.
  3. Overburned: layers of earth and rock covering a coal seam.
  4. Drift mine: type of mine created to access coal buried deep underground, charecterized by an entrance that is horizontal tunnel into the sean of coal.
  5. Deep mine: type of mine created to access coal buried deep underground, charecterized by a set of shafts dug straight down to the coal.

Glogster

glogster:

I think that this project was very interesting because I learned about how other children go to school and with what conditions. With my partner we investigated about two schools; Ruben Castro and Aconcagua.

Similarities and differences

Ruben Castro and Aconcagua Schools

Ruben Castro School is an institutional school and Aconcagua is an subsidized school. Also Ruben Castro does not give that much impotence to English as Aconcagua School.
This tells us that Ruben Castro does´t have much Bilingualism. In Aconcagua School they have extra academies, such as sports, dance, quimic, technology, etc. But in Ruben Castro they only have two academies, that are art and sports.
Ruben Castro is specialized in Language, but Aconcagua is very good at Maths and Science competitions. In Ruben Castro they don´t have technology classes incorporated. But in Aconcagua school, they have technology incorporated. Ruben Castro has a robotic competition also, and Aconcagua School does´t have one.

5 reasons to study in The Mackay School

The Mackay School
Carecteristics

1)Sports and fairplay: this school practices sports to compite with  other schools. But what is most important, besides of the results, is learning to make new friend and having fairplay.


2)Academic achievments: the mission of the school is to give the students a good teaching leason for a good future of each one.


3)Nationally none: the Mackay School is known by many people of Chile. Specially recognized as the Old Macks wich is the rugby team.


4)Masculinity: in this school study only boys but not girls.


5)Education 3.0: on these two past years our school has importes M.A.C computers in every classroom with a reproducing data.
Thanks to this tecnology our students are each day more in touch with actual tecnologys.
This is why I invite you to study in The Mackay School.

Tiger short story



A fuious tiger escaped from the famous zoo the other day and wandered into the school grounds. The gates were open at the time and nobody saw the tiger enter. When the bell rang for playtime, all the little children went running out to have their break and to eat their delicous sandwitches. At first, none of the little children noticed the enormous tiger, exept for one girl who was sitting talking to her friend. She heard a noise behind here and when she turned around, she saw this giant tiger looking at her, licking his lips with his tongue because he was thirsty and hungry. The little girl wasn´t sure what to do and just sat there with here sandwich in her hand. Then she carefully put the sandwich down on the ground so the hungry tiger could eat it, and slowly got up and walked slowly away. What a brave girl!

Picture description using present continuous

Daily Routine

First of all I wake up at about 6:40 from mondays to fridays, I get dressed and have a big breakfast for a long day of school. My dad drops me at school between 07:20 and 07:30 every day. Classes start at 07:50 but I always try to arrive earlier. I have two breaks each day and one period to have some lunch. I have sports on mondays and fridays. One of the things that I like most of my school is playing rugby or football with other schools and making new friends.I have lunch at 13:45 and then I have classes until 16:00. After that, I finally arrive at my home eat eat a bread or a glass of milk. After studying and doing my things, I go to bed between 9:30 and 10 o´clock to have a nice sleep for a new day.
