Today we have finished the Unit 3, so for homework we have to do the crossword in the photocopy that Silvia has given us and the exercises 25, 26 and 27 of the Review.
The exam of this unit is going to be on the 4th of February, all the unit for the people who didn't pass the project and only of fishing and the Primary Sector in Spain for people who passed the project.
In this picture we can see an old gold mine in La Cabrera (Madrid).

Afterwards we have started the new unit, The Secondary and Tertiary Sectors and Paqui has explained us the projects that we have to do if we don't want to do all the exam which are in the pages 48 and 53, they are about the Secondary or Tertiary Sectors.
Then we have copied the index of the unit and we have read the page 43. In that page we have seen that mining is a very important activity because we need the minerals to make a lot of things that we use in our life but is also a very dangerous activity because mines are dangerous. But like is very important, there are a lot of problems with mining, there are wars, like the First African War caused by the fights for the control of coltan mines.
In the Secondary Sector we also include the production of energy, that is also very important. We classify the energy sources in renewable, like solar power, and non renewables, like the oil.
In this picture we can see an oil field in Neuquén (Argentina)

Well done, Javi.
My corrections will refer to the content of next week´s exam and Unit 4 projects:
- The contents for the people who passed the pro9ject will be fishing and the primary sector in Spain. Don´t forget this.
- The projects of the next unit are related to activities that belong to the secondary or tertiary sector.
I think it would be interesting that you write what the pictures you have included are. You could also include the caption (the website where you have found the pictures).
My last correction is related to articles: Don´t write "the mining", "the mines"...
Make the most of this afternoon to prepare your exams!
Hi to everybody!!
I´ve read through the articles you have published on this blog and I have to admit that I´m pleasantly surprised. I find the topics you write about are really interesting and I think that you could use these ideas for our “Curious Impertinent”… Do you agree with me??
Congratulations to all of you. Well done!!

Ok, thanks. I have corrected all. If you find something more tell me.
Bye!
Hello again,
You classmates may be studying (!) and they haven´t corrected some small mistakes. I´ve added the word "source" to the links from which you´ve uploaded the pictures.
Just one correction: review how to say "yacimiento" in English. You´ve written "yield", which means "rendimiento, producción".
See you on Friday.
I've corrected that. Thanks.
Javier your reflective is very well you did a very hard work. It's a good idea that you putted some links.
Congratulations!
Hello Silvia. There are still some mistakes that no one has corrected. You could try. See you tomorrow.
