(en esta página se muestran la secuencia de actividades: lectura previa sobre el tema, visualización del vídeo, actividades sobre el mismo, control de conocimientos mediante diferentes actividades….)
SESSION Nº5 What is mass? What is volume and capacity? (libro página 133)
- Simulación: States of matter (Universidad de Colorado, PhET Interactive Simulations) en el que se apreciará que una misma sustancia cambia su volumen según su estado.
-Andamiaje:
- Pregunta previa acerca de el volumen que ocupan las partículas debido a su movimiento. Si caliento, ¿ocupa más o menos? ¿por qué?
- Lenguaje a utilizar: particles, speed, volume. The higher the temperature, the faster the particles move, the more space they occupy. The lower the temperature, the slower the particles move, the less space they occupy…
- Tabla a completar (la última columna).
- Simulación: Gas properties (Universidad de Colorado, PhET Interactive Simulations)
Con esta simulación vemos ver la dilatación y contracción de un gas de una manera mucho más clara.
− Guión para escribir el Lab Report con los resultados de la actividad que consiste en medir el volumen de gases, líquidos y sólidos irregulares.
SESSION Nº6 What is density (libro página 135)

SESSION Nº8- Revision
- Hacer un mapa conceptual del tema con http://www.mindmeister.com/es
- Preguntas del Quiz (jugamos en equipos de 4-5 personas). El juego ha ido evolucionando con los años: cada persona tiene que ser el spokesperson una vez antes de poder repetir, solo se habla en inglés, hay un sheriff (one-man team) que participa en los turnos de preguntas y es el que lleva las puntuaciones y se asegura que nadie hable en inglés, ni hay insultos (estas cosas se penalizan con puntuaciones negativas, que restan a los puntos ganados por cada respuesta correcta). Al final del curso uno de ellos suele hacer de Host y yo ya me dedico a observar (en vez de ser yo la que hace las preguntas). Terminan jugando de una forma totalmente autónoma, llevando ellos mismos la sesión.
- Como revisión (opcional): Interactive activity. Se presentan actividades on line: unas de ellas son de revisión de los contenidos de la unidad y otras son de ampliación. Por tanto, este tipo de actividades son para comprender, analizar y motivar

7.- METHODOLOGY
Organization and class distribution (timing)
9 x 55 min
The methodology will be active and participatory; in addition, it must facilitate both individual and group learning.
Class distribution (depends on the activity): individual, pair, groups.
The methodology will be applied through the establishment of work habits, including completing activities in the student's book.
