ENERGY CLUB In our school, We have students free activity clubs.Students choose their club in first week of the school year. And they study for their activiy club for one year with their friends and club teachers. This year the most hardworking club has been the ENERGY CLUB.They come together with their teachers one hour in per week.They have started a school project and they study for their friends,teachers,parents and for all school and maybe for all of the village to have awareness about the global- warning and depletion of energy sources. SOME ACTIVITIES OF ENERGY CLUB They prepared warning signs about the correct use of water, heat and lights sources and hang on the walls of toilets and classes. Their Club Teacher, Yasemin Tutkun give seminars to our school staff, students, and parents of students. Club Teacher and club students visit the homes of their friends to see how they use energy in their homes. They plant trees in school garden A little note from our energy club students to their friends from different countries; ! In one second time, 130 mL water flows from the tap,That means while you brush your teeth(in 3 minutes) , you waste 23,4 Liters water. A photo from a sketch Students of school energy club prepared little sketches to draw attention to importance of energy sources and global- warming. In the World of Inventions An exciting exhibition titled “In the World of Inventions” was organized in our school library. Pupils got to know about the way of making lin- en material, they were in- formed about the past life daily tools and devices. An old iron heated by the coal, water yokes, Edison` s gramophone, slide projector, adapter, vinyls and “Pionier” radio were watched by the children with a great interest. These and other tools and devices made the world from the 19 th and 20 th century closer. Our Experiments What lives in the ground? What swims and what sinks? How do the balloon fly? Does the water have skin? Our guests tried to get to know the answers during the School Open Door Day which took place at our school. The classrooms turned into mysterious laboratories, in which many games and experiments took place. They were mainly connected with the water, air, space, light and sound. In the World of the Earth children got to know not only our country` s specimens but also from other foreign lands. The Land of Lights and Shadows took us to the charming plays. We could also see different cells that are invisible without special equipment in the Land of Micro World. In the World of Astronomy The VI a class participated in the inter- school contest on the sport and astronomy knowledge. We took third place. Teams consisting of three representatives, gave the answers to the questions about space (Karol Lange, Michał Szyborski, Karol Wójcik)- and we were the best at it. In spite of this, the teams prepared the post stamp pro- ject (Aleksandra Mizerska, Kinga Stancel, Daiana Suszek) and the space costume. The costume “Space Sumo” was designed by Karolina Baprawska, Klaudia Palkowska and Michał Szymborski. We collected, carried and got satisfaction Few days ago the students from VI a class carried many plastic nuts to the High School no 4. Nuts were collected in order to help raise the money for the wheelchair for a student from that school. All students who joined this action, and thanks to whom we col- lected many bags of nuts, may be satisfied that they could help other person to fulfill his or her dreams The experiment with water Needed for the experiment are: half an orange, one plate, four matches, water, 0ne glass First pour water on the plate. We then plugged in four matches in a half an or- ange, burn the match and cover glass. Af- ter a while the water is drawn into a glass. MELTING AND FREEZING On one of the Physics lessons we were examining the melting and freezing of the solids. Examining the melting and freezing of the ice would be the simpliest way but it is very difficult to freeze the ice in a laboratory so we have chosen a white crystalline substance – the sodium thiosulfate. We started heating the sodium thiosulfate on 22 °C. We did not put it directly above the flame but we were heating it in some water. We had a look at it every 30 seconds and wrote down the temperature. We realised its temperature had been continuosly rising until 48 °C. Then the temperature did not change in spite of the fact that we had cuntinued the heating. The sodium thiosulfate has melted and the crys- tals have changed into liquid. In some time the tempera- ture of the liquid started to increase again. Later we stopped heating and the liquid started getting cool. Its temperature has not changed on 48 °C but it got cool in crystalline form. This experiment shows some heat is needed for melting of crystalline substances and the heat has to be taken away at freezing. ROBOTICS We have Robotics as an extra- curricular activity at our school. On the first lesson we constructed a robot from a lot of small pieces. On the other lessons we made programmes for it on the computer. Later we equipped the robot with various sensors, such as a distance sensor. It can identify the distance of the robot from other objects. The light sensor helps the robot to slow down or stop if there is not enough light. It depends on the programme. There is a sound and a bumper sensor too but we have not used them yet. I like this activity very much. (Dávid Demjén) Do you know, how many teeth does the adult horse have? Solve this cipher. Jakub Verbík, Petr Batonožek An interesting thing from animal word My favourite animal is a horse, because it is the second most faithful animal. The most faithful is a dog, I think. But now I will write about horses. I like their noble walking. We can breed them in a herd or separately. They need access to fresh hay. A suitable way consists in ensuring them free movement. If the horse is in a box he need enough light and air.

We bring an egg to the classroom and ask chil- dren if they think there is a chicken inside. We open the egg and they seem sad because there is only “an egg”… From this moment we start our project. We explain chil- dren that chickens have a mum and dad (calle hen and rooster) and when the hen lay eggs, they need heat and be wet. Finally we explain them that as we can not have a hen and a rooster in the class we take a machine, called incubator and which will do the same task as the hen (give heat to the eggs). Eggs must spend 21 days inside the incubator and later chickens will be born. Children enjoyed and learnt a lot with these activities: eggs are also a kind of food, when a chicken grows up it becomes a hen or a rooster… You can see here some photos about the project… Drought in Spain We have only seen the rain once during the last winter in Cabanillas del Campo. It has been all the same in the central and south areas of Spain, and even in some north- ern areas, which is really unusual. Here are some data which can make us realise how dangerous this situation may be. These data have been extracted from a piece of news by Matthew Bennett. Spain is used to long, hot summers, of course, but this winter is not over and experts are already calling for an urgent declaration of extreme drought. Some say it is set to be the driest three-month period since the 1940s. The severe lack of water and intense frosts have all but ruined crops across large swathes of the Spanish coun- tryside and there are regions in which rainfall has well, fallen, by up to 75%. New Agriculture Ministry data shows that water levels across Spain’s reservoirs are down 20% over the last year. The giant Duero basin has lost more than 25% of its water. A lack of water on this scale has also led to a massive economic problem for Spanish farmers and crop growers. Spain’s young agri- culture association is saying that the lack of decent pas- tures due to effects of the drought is costing them 2 mil- lion of euros per day more than it should in feed for Spain’s 15 million head of cattle, pigs and sheep. They also warn that ALL the dryland crops (wheat, barley, olives, almonds, etc) from huge areas of central and southern Spain (Aragón, Andalucía, Extremadura and Castilla-La Mancha) might be lost. Spanish environmen- tal group Ecologistas en Acción has warned that Spain’s Agriculture Ministry urgently needs to decide on priori- ties for the summer and that these priorities should be: drinking water for the population, river discharge levels and only then crop irrigation. They think things are get- ting that bad. Airbus adec and bio-diversity proyect Our school participates in the Project for the Conserva- tion of the Bio-diversity, an initiative from the Airbus Foundation which was first established in 2010 (International year for the Bio-diversity) This project is offered to any centre which expresses a desire and pre- sents a project. The project has a very close relationship with the Eco-Schools programme, but any other schools can also join it. Basically, the project consists on developing a series of action plans and a conduct code, which will be carried on in each centre. These projects are, of course, focused on Biodiversity in a number of ways: protection, recov- ery and improvement of spaces, species and eco systems, water, energy, waste, tourism, spare time... and how all this can be implemented in schools.

SOME ACTIVITIES

OF ENERGY CLUB

They prepared

warning signs about

the correct use of

water, heat and

lights sources and hang on the walls of toilets and

classes.

Their Club Teacher, Yasemin Tutkun give seminars

to our school staff, students, and parents of students.

Club Teacher and club students visit the homes of

their friends to see how they use energy in their

homes.

They plant trees in school garden

A little note from our energy club students to their

friends from different countries;

! In one second time, 130 mL water flows

from the tap,That means while you brush

your teeth(in 3 minutes) , you waste 23,4

Liters water.

Students of school

energy club

prepared little

sketches to draw

attention to

importance of

energy sources

and global-

warming.

In the World of Inventions

An exciting exhibition titled

“In the World of Inventions”

was organized in our school

library. Pupils got to know

about the way of making lin-

en material, they were in-

formed about the past life

daily tools and devices. An old iron heated by the coal,

water yokes, Edison` s gramophone, slide projector,

adapter, vinyls and “Pionier” radio were watched by the

children with a great interest. These and other tools and

devices made the world from the 19th and 20th century

closer.

Our Experiments

What lives in the ground? What swims and

what sinks? How do the balloon fly? Does

the water have skin? Our guests tried to get

to know the answers during the School Open

Door Day which took place at our school.

The classrooms turned into mysterious laboratories, in

which many games and experiments took

place. They were mainly connected with the

water, air, space, light and sound. In the

World of the Earth children got to know not

only our country` s specimens but also from

other foreign lands. The Land of Lights and

Shadows took us to the charming plays. We

could also see different cells that are invisible

without special equipment in the Land of Micro World.

In the World of Astronomy

The VI a class participated in the inter- school contest

on the sport and astronomy knowledge. We took third

place. Teams consisting of three representatives, gave the

answers to the questions about space (Karol Lange,

Michał Szyborski, Karol Wójcik)- and we were the best at

it. In spite of this, the teams prepared the post stamp pro-

ject (Aleksandra Mizerska, Kinga Stancel, Daiana Suszek)

and the space costume. The costume “Space Sumo” was

designed by Karolina Baprawska, Klaudia Palkowska and

Michał Szymborski.

We collected, carried and got satisfaction

Few days ago the students from VI a class carried many

plastic nuts to the High School no 4. Nuts

were collected in order to help raise the

money for the wheelchair for a student

from that school. All students who joined

this action, and thanks to whom we col-

lected many bags of nuts, may be satisfied

that they could help other person to fulfill

his or her dreams

The experiment with water

Needed for the experiment are: half an

orange, one plate, four matches, water,

0ne glass

First pour water on the plate. We then

plugged in four matches in a half an or-

ange, burn the match and cover glass. Af-

ter a while the water is drawn into a glass.

MELTING AND FREEZING On one of the Physics lessons we were examining the

melting and freezing of the

solids. Examining the

melting and freezing of the

ice would be the simpliest

way but it is very difficult to

freeze the ice in a laboratory

so we have chosen a white

crystalline substance – the

sodium thiosulfate.

thiosulfate on 22 °C. We did not put it directly above the

flame but we were heating it in some water. We had

a look at it every 30 seconds and wrote down the

not change in spite of the fact that we had cuntinued the

tals have changed into liquid. In some time the tempera-

ture of the liquid started to increase again.

Later we stopped heating and the liquid started getting

cool in crystalline form.

This experiment shows some heat is needed for melting

of crystalline substances and the heat has to be taken

away at freezing.

I like this activity very much.

An interesting thing from animal word

My favourite animal is a horse, because it is the second

most faithful animal. The most faithful is a dog, I think.

But now I will write about horses. I like their noble

walking. We can breed them in a herd or separately.

They need access to fresh hay. A suitable way consists in

ensuring them free movement. If the horse is in a box he

need enough light and air.
