Microorganisms

Hello everybody!

Our Easter break is almost finished.  And the third term is going to be very short. We are going to have to work really hard! Are you ready?

This third term,  you shall be working with food and eating habits; and by now, you should now that everything is connected (related).

That is why in our Study-time class we are going to learn about microorganisms in English!

Hmm…  What do microorganisms have to do with  food and healthy (eating)  habits?

Click on the word MICROORGANISMS   and you will find a PowerPoint Presentation with information and links to more videos and online games and activities.

Well, I hope we’ll learn a lot and have fun! See you soon!
