Religious Education

.In Religious Education we read two texts about the toys and games from last century, and then we made a text relating it with today days. The conclusion was that with the urbanization, children can't play as much as they did before.

4th Soapbox car Grand Premium

In our school every year there is a competition among all the 16 teams. This year in August 20th it was the 4th GP. It was a very nice event, with music and the special presence of Raí, a famous football player. Our team, Roli Flame, was the winner, thanks to Victor and André, our racers! At the end, the soapbox cars were drawn and Victor, won it!

Portuguese

In Portuguese we read the book "Os Meninos da Rua Paulo", that relates with the MUSP Project, because in the end, the ground, where the boys played, turns into a building, exactly like in Brazil, when the kids stopped playing with their soapbox cars because of the urbanization.
 We also worked with the portfolio and learned how to organize it.

Art

In Art, we worked with Mathematics. In Mathematics we built the soapbox car and in Art we painted it. Each group studied about a topic and then we made a presentation to the classroom. The topics were Cultural Heritage, Tipping, Museum, Collection, Curator, an Art Gallery and Monuments of São Paulo.

Geography

In Geography, we did many things. We watched the movie "Modern Times", listened to the music "Três Apitos", by Noel Rosa and made a PIVOT  animation. We also made thematic maps representing socio-economic indicators of the city of Sao Paulo, like the average percentage of years of study, the rate of the black populationand family revenue of each district. And finally, we read the book "Menino de Engenho".

Phisical Education

On phisical education each group chose one Formula 1 team participating in 2011 to make a power point to talk about it. Our group chose McLaren and we talked about the teams participating in 2011, wich of them are car manufacturers, how the carmakers have return to invest in F1, facts and curiosities about McLaren and we showed some pictures too. After we made the power point we had to make a presentation to the teacher and the classroom.
