¿QUÉ HE COMIDO HOY?

Es una pregunta muy frecuente, pero nunca nos hemos parado a pensar realmente si hoy he comido bien. El trabajo que he mandado en clase y que estais haciendo en estos momentos (o eso espero), intenta provocar en vosotros y vuestro entorno un análisis de cómo es mi alimentación diaria.

Todos sabemos que os encontrais en un periodo de cambios (físicos, mentales o psicológicos y sociales), pues es en este momento donde la alimentación, la actividad física y los hábitos posturales diarios cobran una mayor importancia.

Lo importante es comer (porque dejando de comer no se adelgaza), pero hay que comer bien, variado, equilibrado, desayunar mucho y todos los días, no comer grasas en exceso, comer dulces (con moderación, y no que sean única y exclusivamente la base de nuestra alimentación), y un largo etcétera de aspectos que poco a poco iremos tratando en clase de Educación Física.
Existen muchas tablas o pirámides de la alimentación, pero lo importante es que cada un@ en su casa siga unos consejos básicos: comer de todo (aunque no me guste: ¿lo habeis probado de verdad?), muchas frutas y verduras, que la grasa o los dulces se coman de forma esporádica, no comer con demasiada sal y sobre todo, desayunar bien.


RECORDAD: en vuestro trabajo teneis que apuntar lo que comeis y bebeis durante una semana, intentando concretar algunos aspectos


ES VUESTRA GASOLINA ¡QUE APROVECHE!

Mistery Mineral Match

We have started already studying about minerals in the science class. Yesterday we went to the laboratory to perform some tests that geologists use to discover the minerals present in rock samples.
All rocks are composed of minerals. The combination of minerals determines the rock type. Rocks with high concentrations of valuable minerals are mined for human use. Minerals have characteristic properties that can be used by geologists to help identify them, such as color, hardness, or shape.
Geologists are the scientists who prospect, or explore, for minerals found inside the Earth. These scientists carefully make observations and record data to help them answer questions about the resources contained inside the Earth's crust. Through careful study, geologist have discovered that although there are over 3000 different minerals, 90% of the Earth's crust is made of only 20 of them.
The minerals that make them up are important to us because we derive, or take what we need from them. For example, lead can be derived from the mineral galena. People use lead to make batteries, ammunition and antiknock additives for gasoline. Mining minerals is expensive, but we have come to depend on minerals in manufacturing the products we use every day. Minerals that are rare or especially beautiful are called gemstones. Most gemstones are colorful crystals of common minerals. Graphite, or pencil "lead", changes into diamond under enormous pressure.
