History | |
|
|
|
- Chronological relationships - Cause and effect relationship between events and situations - Transformation of people, objects, environments connected to the passge of time - Concept of periodization - Evidence in the community of events, trends and significant figures that have shaped local history - The world before man and the experiences of Prehistoric man: the appearance of man, hunters of the ice age, the Neolithic revolution and agriculture, the development of crafts and early commerce - Passage from prehistory to the history of man in early civilizations - Myths and legends about man's origins |
- Make use of chronological relationships, and put events in sequence - Use the clock in all its applications - Reorder events in logical order and analyze situations that occur at the same time and in the same space - Identity cause and effect relationships in society and formulate hypotheses about the possible effects of a cause - Observe and compare objects and people in the present with those of the past - Distinguish between and compare different oral and written historical sources - Understand the difference between a myth and a historical account - Read and interpret evidence of the past found in the community - Identify elements of shared traditions in the history of diverse people living in the same place and time |

Geography | |
|
|
|
- Relationship between geographic features and their representation: basic elements of maps and globes; relative and absolute position, localization - Physical and human, fixed and movable features of environments: open and enclosed spaces - Features of national, regional and local geography and the distribution of the predominant physical and human characteristics and their transformation over time - Man and his activities as part of the environment, and how he uses and protects it - Behaviours to adopt to protect living spaces and the surrounding environment |
- Formulate proposals for organizing living spaces (classroom, room at home, park) and plan for behaviours to adopt in those spaces - Read simple maps and illustrated plans, using legends and the cardinal points - Recognize and represent graphically the different kinds of landscape (urban, rural, coastal, mountainous ...) - Describe the principle characteristics of an environment, using appropriate terminology - Distinguish physical and man-made features of an environment, and highlight significant connections and interactions - Recognize the most evident changes made by man in the local community - Organize a walk (in the garden, in the school atrium, ...) that conforms to the rules of traffic circulation and represent it graphically |

Science | |
|
|
|
- Solids, liquids, gas in everyday use - Process of combustion - Principle methods of cooking - Basic measurements (length, weight, time) - Basic definition of environment and nature in relation to man - Water, an essential element for life - Plant varieties and observable changes in plants familiar to students - Animal groups and animal behaviours - Basic elements of human sexuality: physical differences, the relationship of a couple, maternity and paternity
|
- Use common instruments to measure length, weight, time - Compare objects by measuring observable properties - Transform objects and materials: in the solid state (mold, shatter, melt) and liquid state (mix, dissolve,...) - Illustrate some elementary transformations of materials with practical examples - Establish and apply simple criteria to classify a group of objects - Recognize the parts of a plant - Describe an environment in relation to man's activities - Explain why water, soil, etc. must be conserved - Understand the need for synergy and interaction for the survival of man and the environment - Gather evidence and give a clear report on discoveries made during an exploration of an environment - Observe and describe defensive animal behaviours |

Technology and Information Technology | |
|
|
|
- Properties of some materials commonly used to make objects (wood, plastic, metal, glass...) - Characteristics of some common materials - Construction of models - Concept of algorithm (problem solving) - Word processing and graphics |
- Make models of commonly used objects, using simple designs, identifying materials most suitable for their construction - Construct commonly used objects - Classify materials according to their characteristics: heaviness/lightness, resistance, fragility, strength, elasticity, plasticity - Identify the functions of tools used in the construction of models, classifying them by the work they perform - Use Internet to find information (for example, weather sites or sites for children) - Write simple pieces on a word processor, using spelling and grammar check - Use problem solving in real situations - Draw the models or other images in color using simple graphic programs - Insert the drawings into text |
