ALL ABOUT ASIA



Asia is the biggest and most populated continent with 53 different countries. More than 60% of the people live in Asia. Indeed, there are more than 4 billion people in Asia and almost 7 billion people in the world!!!
Asia begins at Suez Canal (in Egypt) and is east of the Ural Mountains and South of the Caucasus Mountains, the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea. Siberia (in Russia) is in the very Northeast of Asia and is separated from America (Alaska) by the Bering Strait. The Indian Ocean is in the South, the Arctic Ocean is in the North and the Pacific Ocean in the Southeast. Some geographers do not consider Asia and Europe to be separate continents, as there is no logical physical separation between them.
Because of the size an diversity of people, languages, geography and history, Asia is a mixture of cultures and regions from China to Israel to Uzbekistan. Asia has many different natural resources, such as petroleum, minerals, fish, water and metal.


  • Describing a continent.
  • Using geographical concepts.

BRILLIANT!

This wonderful work was made by Hannah and Sofía. They did it about the terrible consequences of drought for the living beings.

INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PEACE IS COMING

WHATEVER Lyrics

Here are the lyrics of Whatever, the Oasis song of the 2011 coke spot:

I'm free to be whatever I
Whatever I choose
And I'll sing the blues if I want

I'm free to say whatever I

Whatever I like
If it's wrong or right it's alright

Always seems to me

You only see what people want you to see
How long's it gonna be
Before we get on the bus
And cause no fuss
Get a grip on yourself
It don't cost much

Free to be whatever you

Whatever you say
If it comes my way it's alright

You're free to be wherever you

Wherever you please
You can shoot the breeze if you want

It always seems to me

You only see what people want you to see
How long's it gonna be
Before we get on the bus
And cause no fuss
Get a grip on yourself
It don't cost much

I'm free to be whatever I

Whatever I choose
And I'll sing the blues if I want

Here in my mind

You know you might find
Something that you
You thought you once knew
But now it's all gone
And you know it's no fun
Yeah I know it's no fun
Oh I know it's no fun

I'm free to be whatever I

Whatever I choose
And I'll sing the blues if I want

I'm free to be whatever I

Whatever I choose
And I'll sing the blues if I want

Whatever you do

Whatever you say
Yeah I know it's alright

Whatever you do

Whatever you say
Yeah I know it's alright

WEATHER AND CLIMATE



EXPLANATION
NOTES FOR CLASS



WEATHER AND CLIMATE


WEATHER is the conditions right here, right now. Look out of the window and you will see what the weather is like today. It might be sunny, hot, windy or cloudy, raining or snowing.
The weather takes into account the temperature, precipitation, humidity and atmospheric pressure, of the part of atmosphere (air) closest to the surface of the Earth.
The weather is constantly changing as temperature and humidity change in the atmosphere. Landmasses, such as the British Isles, experience constantly changing weather conditions.

CLIMATE is the average weather conditions – temperature, pressure, precipitation and humidity- expected for a certain place. Climate is based on the average weather experienced over 30 years or more.
Climate refers to what is expected to happen in the atmosphere rather than the actual conditions. So it is possible for the weather today to be different from that suggested by the climate.
