CAPERUCITA ROJA Y JUEGOS POPULARES Y TRADICIONALES

¿Y qué tendrá que ver Caperucita Roja con los juegos populares?
Está muy clara su relación: las clases de Educación Física del segundo trimestre.
Las Unidades Didácticas que estamos trabajando ahora están relacionadas con la expresión corporal y los juegos.
Por un lado, trabajamos la desinhibición, la pérdida de la vergüenza, el conocimiento de nuestro cuerpo y sus posibilidades expresivas por medio de juegos de expresión y comunicación como los cantajuegos (donde con canciones y juegos infantiles logramos olvidarnos de los demás, liberarnos de presiones y complejos para saltar, gritar y disfrutar mientras estamos trabajando). Todo encaminado hacia la consecución de estrategias y recursos expresivos que podamos utilizar cuando tengamos que representar el cuento de Caperucita Roja (bueno, mejor dicho, el principio del cuento, porque luego tenéis que inventaros el resto del cuento y expresarlo por medio de vuestro cuerpo y la expresión).
Por otro lado, también estamos trabajando una unidad didáctica de juegos populares y tradicionales. Los juegos tradicionales son los típicos de una zona geográfica que se han ido transmitiendo de generación en generación y contienen una carga cultural importante (por ejemplo: la carrera de sacos, la sogatira o el lanzamiento de barra castellana). Sin embargo, los juegos populares son aquéllos que se han jugado desde pequeño en plazas, patios de colegios y que simplemente sirven para divertirnos y pasar el rato: escondite, guardia y ladrón o el retroceso (al mismo tiempo que los niños y niñas van desarrollando su motricidad mientras juegan).
Para mí es muy importante recordar estos juegos populares, porque en la sociedad en la que nos encontramos hay muy pocos niñ@s que se pasan la tarde en la plaza del barrio, en el patio del colegio o por las calles de su pueblo jugando a estos juegos, corriendo, saltando, cayéndose y haciéndose heridas, ... , que son fases necesarias en edades tempranas para conseguir un desarrollo psicomotor adecuado. Ahora la gente prefiere jugar a la play, estar la tarde entera sentada frente al ordenador y "hablar" con sus amigos en el messenger. y yo me pregunto:¿y eso es ocio, eso es pasarlo bien?
Desde aquí animo a todos y a todas a que, por curiosidad, conteis el tiempo que pasais por las tardes frente al ordenador, la play o con el móvil, y el tiempo que dedicais para hacer deporte.
Si yo lo entiendo, pero pensad una cosa, dentro de unos años tendréis un dedo pulgar muy desarrollado de tanto jugar a la play y un cuerpo muy poco fortalecido (tendréis dolor de espalda de estar tanto tiempo sentados en malas posturas, el colesterol alto, la circulación sanguínea alterada, la tensión alta, ....) porque pasar tanto tiempo sentado conlleva comer más alimentos ricos en grasas saturadas y no desarrollar de la manera adecuada vuestro cuerpo, y dentro de unos 5, 10 ó 15 años os preguntaréis: ¡por qué no hice más deporte cuando era niñ@! (porque la edad de jugar es la que ahora tenéis y luego, de mayor, es más complicado por los compromisos que conlleva).

EL DEPORTE ES VIDA
EL DEPORTE ES SALUD
EL DEPORTE ES FUTURO

A dune is an accumulation of sand in the deserts that are generate by the wind so this is why they have this shapes,they are produced by the wind changes or because of the variation of the amount of sand.When the wind has a dominantdirection, the dunes have a C shape; the advance direction of the dunes is the factor that decides the huge. The small one are the one that go faster, the highest dunes are the one that are 4 or 6 meters. This kind of dunes and these movements you can see in Sechura desert (In Peru).

The movements of the dunes can cause big problems like: the invasion of villages, towns, roads, fields... the best way to control this invasions is to plant trees next and over the dune, other possibility is to spray materials like petrol or some used oils. The first village to do this was the town of villa Gesell in Bonaernse and rhe man who did this kind of experiments was Carlos Idaho Gesell in the Uruguay cost, nowdays cover by pinewoods. But in Spain there some examples too, like Barbate´s pinewood.

What would you do is you where in a village near a dune, and you know that in some moment the dune would invade your house?
This question was the principal one when in 19 century in Barbate the villagers has to plant pines covering a dune.

Earthquakes

The tectonics plates make up the Lithosphere that is the more superficial layer of the earth ,those plates are settled in the astenosphere, that is a liquid layer made up of a hot material; now I'm going to talk about three cities and I'm going to say my opiniof about which is the best one city to live in;

Tokio: Is one of the urban cities more importants of the planet, it has a smaller number of skyscrapers in comparation with other cities of its scale due to the earthquake risk,so the majority of its buildings don't have more than 10 floors;I think even if Tokio is a very well prepared city for a earthquake; I wouldn'r like to live there because it one of the places where more earthquakes happen!

S.Francisco:In 1906 a big earthquake was produced, it devasted S.Francisco , in 1989 another earthquake was produced that killed 250 persons! I neither would like to live there even if the buildings are safer than in toko and they have less probabillities for an earthquake to happen than in tokio

Malaga: In Spain the sismic risk is concentred in the limit between the Euroasiatic plate amd and the African plate , the last earthquake that caused catastrophic damages happened the 25 December in 1884 affecting Malaga and Granada; I would choose Malaga even if its not very well prepared to an earthquake is the place of the ones I've choosen that has less probabillities of an earthquake to happen.

Floods in Spain.

The flooding is one of the natural catastrophes that kill more people. In the XX century is calculated that there were 3.2 million people died because of this phenomenon. In Spain this is a social and economic problem, it happen especially in the Mediterranean zone and in the North.

The factors that cause this flooding are: excess of precipitation, melting of snow, breaking of dams and human activity. In Spain floods are also the natural catastrophe that causes more impact. The areas were floods more affect are: The North basin (principally in Pais Vasco). That’s because there use to be from time to time very much precipitations (450L/m2 in a day) the valleys are narrow and deep and the population is situated near the channels. Also in the Mediterranean area floods affect. The risk is high in places like Jucar’s banks, Murcia or Malaga and Granada. This is caused because of torrential rains (like 700L/m2 in a day), also helped the absence of trees and an easy erosion of the soil.

In conclusion, because of different causes the flooding is the natural phenomenon that more problems produce. In Spain it happens more often in the North and in the Mediterranean zone.

INCAS CIVILIZATION

The Incas civilization was the largest pre-Hispanic empire of south America when it was “discover” by the Spanish conquistadors in the 16th AD, the Incas civilization controlled all of the western part of the continent between Ecuador and Chile.
They were a warlike village who fundated a powerful empire.
The Inca’s capital was at Cusco, Peru.
The Inca civilization farmed cotton, potatoes, and corn and herder alpacas. They made up irrigated land systems and constructed crops on the slopes of the mountains.
The metallurgy of the gold and the copper increased its development, and the ceramic was decorated with human’s figures, animals, flowers...
They were distributed in clans, an extended family.
Their principal Gods were Viracocha, creator and son of the Sun and the Moon.
The towns, where they constructed great stones, were communicated by services of post office and very big roads, which crosses the Andes.

El doping en el deporte

Tomando como referencia las marcas deportivas alcanzadas en el alto rendimiento, día a día, se buscan nuevos métodos para tratar de superar dichas marcas. Una forma externa de influir en el rendimiento físico de un atleta ha sido mediante el consumo de sustancias prohibidas.
Esta sustancias, al ser ingeridas, provocan un aumento artificial de un rendimiento deportivo.
La administración o uso por parte de un atleta de cualquier sustancia estimulante denomina doping.
Uno de los principales avances de la lucha antidopaje es la relación de análisis de sangre para detectar la presencia de EPO, que es la sustancia que se usa habitualmente en deportes de resistencia como ciclismo, esquí, atletismo...
El análisis de orina es, sin embargo, el principal método de control antidopaje.
De esta forma, numerosos deportistas profesionales han sido sancionados por el consumo de dichas sustancias prohibidas como Maradona, Ben Jonson...

Aztec civilization

The Aztecs.

The Aztecs, that were a warrior civilization, were poblating the north of the actual Mexico. The empire, was deed by a three town confederation: Tenochtitlan, Texcoco and Tlacopan. The Aztec society was structured in tribus and they were divided in 4 society classes:

• The Priests, who were respected by all the people because fo the important religious belief.


• The noblemn who played an important role in theis civilization.


• The Free Men, who haven't enough resources and they were treated like so, and they constituted the mayority of the Aztec's society.


• Finally, the Slaves, who were war prisoners who hadn't been sacrified to the gods.

Aztec culture had rich and complex mythological and religious traditions. For europeans, the most striking element of the Aztec culture, was the practice of human sacrifice which was conducted thoroughout Mesoamerica prior to the spanish conquest. The Aztecs spoke classical Nahuatl.

They lived fo the corn grown and of taxes that they collected from the near towns. This civilization was conquered by Hernan Cortes in 1521 when Moctezuma II was the emperor.

On the image we can see the chinampas, a very effective method of cultivation of the Aztecs.
