Activities: The task is supposed to be accomplished in three main activities. Activity 1. The teacher shows the picture to the students and encourage them to make questions using "I wonder..." "I wonder who is the girl". "I wonder what is she doing". "I wonder why is she like that". Activity 2 .

  This video can be suitable for the 5th grade of Primary . Subject: Natural Science . First, we tell our students that we have found an amazing video that we have never seen before (If we show excitement they will be more easily engaged with the activity). Then, we show them just a frame of the video in which they can see the sea/lake, the kayak and a flock of birds. The teacher can ask them some questions so that students can try to predict what the video is about, questions like: What kind of place can you see? Does it belong to your city? Why? Why not? What elements can you see? The most likely answers will be: It is the sea, I can see birds, it is not Burgos as I can see the sea and there´s no sea in Burgos, In the middle I see someone using a kayak… Just immediately, we will resume the video and let our students watch the moment in which the whale jumps out of the water and the teacher will ask students to explain what has happened and what they think will happen next (re...

The students will ask different questions in order to guess what is inside. But the answer can be only YES/NO . For example: is it big? Can you eat it? Is it a toy?... 2. If they cannot guess what is inside, they will close their eyes and one by one can touch the object inside. They have to share with their partners their feelings and emotions. After than they can give their ideas. In my case, inside the box there is an elf puppet but, can be anything, or several things 3. Now they will create their own mystery box. We can divide the class into different groups so the activity will be shorter than allowing every student to do it in front of the class.

Objectives : Through this lesson plan students will think about how important is the Information and Communication Technology, becoming aware of the positive and negative impacts in our daily lives. To start, I will read to them this text: Last friday I was waiting for my favourite actor at the premiere of his new film. While I was looking around and a lot of people were absorbed with their electronic devices. I saw an eldery woman just allowing herself to enjoy the moment through her own senses, not through the lens of an smart phone. She was living completely in the moment, looking with her eyes, not through a screen. I thought she was ignored but she looked so happy... That made me forgot to look at my mobile and enjoy the moment. Then, I’ll show my students the picture and the activities could be the following: First of all, I would ...
