Keep Fit (extra reading)

In Unit 1 you are going to learn vocabulary about the parts of the human body as well as adjectives of description so it could be a good idea to read about some tips to keep you healthy as a teenager:

Being Fit

Being fit is a way of saying a person eats well, gets a lot of physical activity (exercise), and has a healthy weight. If you're fit, your body works well, feels good, and can do all the things you want to do, like run around with your friends.

Eat a Variety of Foods      

You may have a favorite food, but the best choice is to eat a variety. If you eat different foods, you  get the nutrients your body needs.  Some foods, such as green veggies, are more pleasing the older you get. Eat at least five servings of fruits and vegetables a day — two fruits and three vegetables.

Drink Water & Milk    

When you're really thirsty, cold water is the best thirst-quencher . Kids need calcium to build strong bones, and milk is a great source of this mineral. How much do kids need? If you are younger than 9 years old, drink 2 cups of milk a day, or its equivalent. If you're older than 9 years old, aim for 3 cups of milk per day, or its equivalent. You can mix it up by having milk and some other calcium-rich dairy foods.

Listen to Your Body  

 What does it feel like to be full? When you're eating, notice how your body feels and when your stomach feels comfortably full. Sometimes, people eat too much because they don't notice when they need to stop eating. Eating too much can make you feel uncomfortable and, over a period of time, can lead to unhealthy weight gain.

Limit Screen Time      

What's screen time? It's the amount of time you spend watching TV or DVDs, playing video games , and using a smart phone, tablet, or computer. The more time you spend on these sitting-down activities, the less time available for active activities, like basketball, bike riding, and swimming. Try to spend no more than 2 hours a day on screen time, not counting computer use related to school and educational activities.

Be Active    

One job you have as a kid — and it's a fun one — is that you get to figure out which activities you like best. Not everyone loves baseball or soccer. Maybe your passion is karate, or kickball, or dancing. Ask your parents to help you do your favorite activities regularly. Find ways to be active every day.

Vocabulary. Maths Operations

Have a look at this vocabulary we have seen in class about basic operations in English

Basic operations

Vocabulary. Numbers

Natural numbers are the numbers used to count or order. There are two types, cardinal and ordinal.

• If we use them for counting: CARDINAL
• If we use them for ordering: ORDINAL

The symbols we use to represent numbers are called digits: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9. Our numeral system is decimal and positional.

Decimal: because we group the digits in tens, and

Positional: because the digits have a different value according to its position. 

The European Language Day 2015

The European Language Day is held on 26th September, a day to encourage language learning across Europe. With this celebration, we alert  people to the importance of language learning in order to increase plurilingualism and intercultural understanding as well as to promote the rich linguistic and cultural diversity in Europe.
