Fertilization (steps)

Fertilization, simply, is the joining of an ovum and a sperm. It happens inside a woman's reproductive system and is the first step of a pregnancy. It specifically involves the joining of the female reproductive cells (egg or ovum) with the male reproductive cell (sperm).

Make the drawing of the Uterus and the Fallopian tubes, ovaries, etc. and label the five steps and write what happens in each of those steps on your notebook. 

Spanish History XIX Century (From 1808 to 1833)

 When you study history you must focus on concepts, people, events, dates and timelines. Here we are going to see two concepts which are: Constitution and Absolutism. 

A Constitution is the most important law in a country. 

Napoleon, with the excuse of invading Portugal, agreed with Spain to cross the country with his troops, with 20.000 soldiers at first, but some time later, he kept on sending more soldiers and invaded Spain as well. 

The timeline will help you locate in time these events and people. Tomorrow at 10 o'clock we will have a class about this. See you then. Now you can watch this video and leave a comment.

What to do? Copy this information on your notebook and make a timeline from 1800 to 1833. 

Sex Cells

Men and women have different reproductive organs as we have seen. A woman's ovaries produce egg cells or ovum, and her uterus can carry a developing baby. A man's testicles produce sperm. Other glands add fluids to the sperm.

The Ovum is the female sex cell or gamete. They cannot move and they are very big compared with a sperm. An Ovum can measure approximately 0,14 mm and we can see it with the human eye. It's the biggest cell in the body. 

Here is a video that talks about this:

Today we will have a Natural class at 10:00 o'clock. I will send you the link of the meeting on Milton. See you then!!!

Contemporary Ages (XIX Century)

When we study History we can see the events that happened, the important people and the dates. Make three columns with this information that we will see today.

It is also important to understand certain concepts. For example: What is a Constitution?

Finally, we can read about history, we can make mindmaps and also make timelines. 

Here is a timeline of the XIX Century in Spain. 

Task: define briefly these events, people and dates. Search the information on your notebook and also on Google. 

We will meet tomorrow at 10:00 o'clock. Some minutes before I will send you a new link. 

Tomorrow class at 11 o'clock
