Living in Democracy

After Franco died, the transition to democracy took place. There was a lot of tension in Spain at this time, but the transformation happened peacefully.

Look at these pictures

In 1975, Juan Carlos I became the king of Spain. The king named Adolfo Suárez as the president of the new government after the first democratic elections in 1977 were UCD (Unión de Centro Democrático) won. It was the first democratic government since the Second Republic.

In 1978, the Spanish people approved a new constitution in a referendum. 

A referendum is a vote in which all the people in a country are asked to give their opinion about or decide an important political or social question. 

The Spanish Constitution is a text that defines how Spain is organized and sets out the fundamental rights of its citizens and the most important rules of our society. The Spanish people approved the current Constitution on the 6th of December 1978. In its first article it defines Spain as it follows:

Spain is constituted as a social and democratic State of Law, which advocates freedom, justice, equality and political pluralism as superior values of its legal system.

The first president of our current democracy was Adolfo Suárez. 

Spain is a democracy. Spanish citizens vote for their governments. 

Spain is a social state. The state is ruled by laws and its citizens have rights. The constitutional values are liberty, justice and equality. The form of government is a parliamentary monarchy.

Spain’s territory is divided into Autonomous Communities. The symbols of Spain are the flag, the coat of arms and the national anthem. 

In 1981, Suárez resigned and Leopoldo Calvo Sotelo became the president of Spain. This was a tense moment for the new democracy. On the 23rd of February there was a military coup. The leader was Tejero but in the end it didn’t succed and things went to normal again.

In 1982, there were new elections. The winning party was the PSOE (Partido Socialista Obrero Español) and the new president was Felipe González. Between 1982 and 1996, the PSOE formed various governments. The democratic transition was complete. 

In 1996, the Partido Popular (PP) won the elections and José María Aznar became the president. The PP and Aznar won the elections again in 2000.

Magnetic fields, electric motors and electric generators

A magnetic field is the area around a magnet that has magnetic force. All magnets have a magnetic field, no matter how big they are. 

Things that are attracted to magnets are called magnetic objects. All magnetic objects are made of metal, but not all metals are magnetic. The main metals that are attracted by magnets are iron, cobalt and nickel. You can turn one of these metals into a magnet by rubbing it with a magnet!

The Earth Is a Magnet

Magnetism is at work all around you. Almost everything that uses electricity or runs with a motor has magnets in it. The magnetic force helps your car run, your microwave cook and your computer work. Even the Earth we live on is a giant magnet!

Earth is a huge magnet

The middle of our planet is made of two metals called iron and nickel. Both metals are attracted to magnets. These special metals can also become magnets. Our planet is always turning around in space, and Earth's metal core is turning, too. These movements make a magnetic force that surrounds the Earth called a magnetic field.

The electrical generator uses movement to produce electricity using magnets.

The periodic table*

The periodic table is a system for arranging the chemical elements. The chemical elements are the basic substances that make up all matter.

Use this colors in your project

Here is an example of how to do it.

An example

Here's a video, my mask was crooked!

Each chemical element has a particular feature called its atomic number. That number comes from the amount of tiny particles called protons in each atom of the element. For this you must remember what is an atom. We saw this in class. Remember?

Please draw the atom in your notebook. Here's a cool video talking about the atom:

Here is a picture of the periodic table:

Watch this video. It's a song that will help you understand the periodic table.

Here is a video that explains very well what is the periodic table.

Activity: to become familiar with all this, now you have to draw the elements that we saw in class. With the colours from the first table on the top. 

I hope you enjoy this! 🌝
