A script, or screenplay, is
the text that describes the
setting and the actions and
words the characters of the
film or TV programme have
to do and say.

First, you need to start with the place, or setting, and the time of the day.

Setting: the school’s backyard. During the day.

Secondly, you need to think about your characters and about what happens to them.

Amanda is a shy girl from the sixth grade. She looks very worried.
Amanda enters the scene.
“Help! I cannot find my pencil case.”

Lastly, you need to finish your scene with something interesting.

Enters Detective Girl, a schoolgirl from the sixth grade


who really likes detective films.
“This looks like a job for Detective Girl!”

This is Martina. She is from the USA. It’s Green Week at Martina’s school.
She wants to be green this week and hopefully, in the future.

Every family uses water for showers, washing


clothes, cooking, and drinking. Martina wants
to save water by turning off the tap when
brushing her teeth, and by putting a bucket
in the shower to collect water while waiting
for it to get warm to reuse it.

In the USA, 40% of food is thrown away everyday.


This waste has an environmental impact as it
corresponds to land use, pesticides, and water
irrigation wasted. Rotting food in a landfill releases
methane, a greenhouse gas. Martina will start
composting this week to avoid food waste.

Project Our Compost Pile!

1 Read the background information and discuss.

With the help of micro-organisms and insects, we can take our organic materials and turn
them into a rich, dark soil amendment called compost. In this way, valuable nutrients are
returned to nature rather than shipped away to a landfill.
Composting is an excellent way to demonstrate the cycle of life: life, death,
decomposition, and re-birth. “Browns” are dry and woody plant trimmings,
such as wood chips, dried leaves, and straw. Browns are rich in carbon.
“Greens” are moist vegetable and fruit scraps, green leaves, and
fresh manure. Greens are rich in nitrogen. In a compost pile,
you want approximately half brown materials and half green
materials by volume. Decomposer organisms need air and
water to break down organic matter.

Adapted from “Do the Rot” (2020).

2 Materials needed:

Food scraps Bedding materials


(greens) Pitchfork (browns)

Water
Shovel Five pallets

3 Follow the instructions to build a compost pile at school!

Remember
a. Chop materials into pieces.
Stack the pallets
b. Mix bedding material with food
creating a box. scraps (half of each by volume).
c. Maintain moisture by keeping
the pile humid.

material layers of bedding material, food scraps,

Stir the layers together with a pitchfork


or shovel as you build the pile.
Keep the pile “fluffed up” to maximize
the air in the pile.

Always finish the pile with a layer of browns, finished


compost, or soil. Don’t put greens on top; this will
help prevent flies from nesting.

4 Promote the idea of composting.

a. Discuss the idea you want to convey.

Cubism was one of the most influential styles of the twentieth


century. Its biggest exponent was Pablo Picasso. It reduced
everything to geometrical outlines. Cubism was the starting
point for abstract painting. Cubism shows different viewpoints
at the same time. It emphasizes the two-dimensional flatness
of the canvas instead of creating an illusion of real space from
a fixed viewpoint.
Adapted from Cubism, Tate Modern (2020)

Technology in Times of Crisis


Technology connects people, objects,
and information much more than any
other time in history. You can see the
traffic on a smartphone, call a taxi to
your exact location using an application,
you can chat with friends living in other
countries, and you can even do exercise
by watching an online video. However,
when technology has really proven to be
a life saver is in times of crisis. Whether
these are natural disasters, humanitarian
crises, pandemics, or any other,
technology has become an ally.

Natural disasters
One of technology’s most meaningful benefits lies in the humanitarian sector, which reaches
large numbers of people in remote and dangerous locations to provide critical resources fast
and efficiently. In times of disaster, basic connectivity is a form of aid, allowing organizations
to deliver life-saving information and resources.
• Big data analytics is useful to get crucial information on which to act. It helps
build a real time picture of what is happening on the ground. Analysing water levels,
shelter locations, availability of beds, road closures, among others allow humanitarian
organisations to act. For example, the Red Cross responded in less than two months to
more disasters than they had covered in the last four years thanks to data
analytics platforms.
• Aerial robotics like drones help
tremendously in times of crisis.
Using this technology, organisations
can assess damage in real time,
increase situational awareness
and deliver items faster, cheaper,
and more effectively. In the case of
earthquakes, aerial robotics allows
for effective response.

Pandemics
Technology has become an essential part of our lives; it plays its part by making people’s
lives more feasible and productive, whether this is from a basic or professional level. Many
services continue to work because technology ensures safety and reliability.
• Medical facilities are able to
diagnose and treat infected
patients with the help of healthcare
technology.
• Pharmaceuticals use advanced
technology to test and develop
vaccines and drugs that can cure
and provide relief for a disease.
• Online teaching platforms make
it possible for students around the
globe to stay on track with their
learning processes remotely from
their homes. Videos of teachers doing class, workshops on streaming, as well as
readings and guides are some of the many teaching instruments that circulate in order
to help students stay on track.
• Video conferences allow workers to continue doing their jobs, making it easier to
discuss connected through the internet.
• Social media and the internet play a vital role in raising awareness among users. It
also becomes a source of entertainment and relaxation in an extraordinary context,
where users can do sports, meditation, chat with friends, among others.

What are the problems?


Some problems arise when speaking about technology. This regards fake news
circulating, which challenges the reliability of information. Stress and anxiety occur due to
an excess of information that can sometimes be overwhelming. Finally, having little access
to internet or any technological services in some places makes it more difficult for people
to benefit from technology.

The Giant’s Causeway


My name is Ciara Hughes and I’m from
Belfast, Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland is
a small province located in the north east of
the island of Ireland. I really love living here
because there are beautiful places to visit
and everything is so green because the
weather is mild and it rains a lot.
My favourite thing to do is going on family
trips, especially going to the countryside
where there a many lakes and rivers.
This year my cousins from Italy are visiting
us, so we are planning a special trip to
the Giant’s Causeway. It’s a beautiful national
reserve and World Heritage area filled with basalt columns formed
by volcanic activity 60 million years ago. In this post, I want to tell
you a little bit about this amazing place, the scientific facts, and
the magical legend behind the formation of these 40,000 stones.

So, what does science say?


The Giant’s Causeway is on the Antrim county coastline. The stones that are a perfect
hexagonal shape are the result of molten basalt (melted rocks from a volcanic eruption) that
cooled down and contracted across the Antrim Plateau. So, imagine a large pool of magma
that goes down the volcano, melting the rocks that cool down, fracture, and form these perfect
stones. The scientific explanation seems good to me. But what always amazes me is the
hexagonal shape of the stone. It’s like someone shaped them perfectly and put them there.
Now, let’s continue to the legend, which I think is going to be quite interesting.

CL0000000001363 U5 INGLES 6B 2020 TXT FINALES_9686.indd 122 19-11-20 18:07


What does the legend say?
Let’s start by understanding the name: The Giant’s
Causeway. So, of course, there is a Giant. Causeway is
another word for path or way; in other words: The path of
the giant. That’s where our story starts: Why does a Giant
need a path? Well, the legend tells about a giant named
Finn McCool fighting with another giant across the water, in
Scotland, his name is Benandonner. In a fight, Finn throws
pieces of the Antrim coast to the sea. These pieces form
a path for Finn to chase Bennandonner, who is huge! Finn
regrets going to see him and runs back home. His wife
dresses him up like a baby to help disguise him from the
terrible Bennandonner. When Bennandonner reaches the
Antrim coast, he sees the baby and becomes terrified,
because he thinks: “If this baby is so big! His dad must be
massive! So, he runs back home to Scotland, breaking
the chunks of land and rocks from Finn’s path. So
according to legend, the stones are a result of the fights between two giants.
What do you think? Which theory do you like more?

Activities to do
I’m very excited for this trip with my family
because there are a lot of activities and
things to see at the Giant’s Causeway.
Of course, there is the walk along the
causeway and the cliff. There is a hike
which you can take from Dunseverick
Castle, along the coastline and up to the
Giant’s Causeway. The part I’m most
excited to see is the Giant’s boot. It is
in Port Noffer in a small path that leads
to the sea. The legend says that Finn,
the giant, lost the boot in his flee from
Bennandoner. The boot is approximately
a size 93.5!
Also, there is a visitor centre which has interactive spaces and you can watch the story of Finn
McCool on a big screen, and of course, there is a lot of information for tourists.
I can’t wait to show my cousins the Giant’s Causeway!
What about you? Would you like to come? Let me know in the comments below!

was formed” (2018) and “The Giant Story” (2020)

WALL-E
Part One: Landing on Planet Earth
By the year 2815, a lovely and curious robot and his loyal friend,
a tiny cockroach named Hal, are the only inhabitants on Planet
Earth. His name is WALL-E and he collects and compacts
garbage to clean the planet for people’s return. Humans
instead live in luxurious spacecrafts since the year
2115, after they failed to save Planet Earth from
excessive pollution and desolation covered it all.
One day, WALL-E finds a seedling plant growing
up inside an old boot in the middle of
the trash. He picks it up and carries the plant
to his refuge. Upon their return, a landing
ship appears, and an amazing elegant white
figure emerges. WALL-E observes from a
distance. What’s she doing? What is she
looking for? As WALL-E continues to watch,
Hal approaches her. Hal, no! She fires her arm cannon at anything that moves! But she
doesn’t harm Hal at all, instead they both play together. After a while, the white figure, Eve, is
interrupted by WALL-E’s laugh and she doesn’t hesitate to point her gun at him demanding
to know his identity, but Hal defends him by crawling into his hand. She scans WALL-E and
finds no harm, so she ignores him.
WALL-E immediately falls in love with her and he is determined to get her
attention. He approaches her and introduces himself, “WALL-E”, he says,
“Eve”, she answers back. Suddenly a dust storm interrupts
them and WALL-E carries Eve to his refuge. “Hurry! The
storm is coming!” They both get safe inside just in time.
What are those? Those are WALL-E’s most important
treasures, pieces he has collected on his journey on
Planet Earth. Among those treasures is the plant and
WALL-E shows it to Eve. Eve scans the plant, stores
it in her torso and suddenly shuts down. What
is happening? Why is Eve inactive? WALL-E
doesn’t understand…anyway, he protects her
motionless body from every natural event: rain,
dust storms, and thunderstorms…until one
day the ship returns to take Eve away…Where
are they going? WALL-E doesn’t hesitate
and chases her.

Part Two: The Spacecraft Battle
WALL-E decides to follow Eve when the ship took
her off Planet Earth. Where are they? Ooooooh!
The Axiom! The spacecraft where humans live.
What are they doing there? It seems the plant is
the key…
As soon as they arrive, WALL-E is amazed by
the way humans and robots live together in
harmony. But what surprises him the most,
is that humans are unable to walk. Why
aren’t they like the humans in Hello, Dolly!?
The VHS that showed people moving and
dancing. These people instead, are obese, leave
all manual work to robots, are always staring
at the screens in front of their faces, and move on
hoverchairs! WALL-E’s astonishment is interrupted when Eve
is carried to the ship’s captain while WALL-E hides and observes from a distance…The
captain is very surprised that a robot finally found life on Planet Earth. Going back home
after 700 years? Yes! It’s time to start the Recolonising Operation. The only thing they
need to do is to put the plant in the holo-detector and the Axiom will fly back to Planet
Earth! But, where’s the plant? Eve reactivates, finds WALL-E hiding, and sees the plant is
not there, she thinks WALL-E stole it… Suddenly, the captain discovers WALL-E and they
both are carried to cleaning cells. However, WALL-E manages
to run away with Eve…
On their escape, WALL-E and Eve discover that GO-
4, the ship’s second-in-command, has the plant and
is about to destroy it…He activates the capsule’s
self-destruct sequence with the plant inside! WALL-E
tries to catch it, but he gets trapped inside
the capsule that is ejected into space
and explodes! Eve follows the capsule
with anguish… but, wait! What’s that?
WALL-E manages to find propulsion
with a fire extinguisher and escapes
at the last minute, with the plant
unharmed! The Axiom immediately
heads towards Planet Earth, where
people can start their recolonisation
and where WALL-E and Eve can live happily
ever after for another 700 years.

Santuario Igualdad: A place where


farm animals can have a new life.
Just like dogs and cats, farm animals can have their own
personalities and unique traits. Santuario Igualdad is a shelter for
farm animals. Its main purpose is to rescue, welcome, and protect
these animals and give them a new home. Here, animals live and
grow up being loved no matter the species.
Santuario Igualdad is a profit-free institution located in El Monte, an
hour distance from Santiago, Chile. In this place, animals are not
treated like numbers, prey, or products. Each animal has its own
name and they run freely because there are no cages. The animals
that live here were rescued from the meat, milk, or egg industries.
Ariel and Marisol came up with the idea for this animal shelter after
spending several years filming documentaries about the cruelty
of the meat industry. Getting to know the reality that animals go
through in these kinds of industries definitely changed their lives.
For this reason, they decided to do something about it and created
Santuario Igualdad. Now, they take care of 85 animals including
cows, sheep, goats, chickens, and pigs. Despite the great number
of animals and all the different needs they have, they take good
care of all of them. The animal shelter was created for animals to be
happy and respected.

Animal Peace
Oliva the goat and Pam, Dieguito, and Alelí the sheep
live peacefully here. They are very sociable and they
immediately come to greet when you go in the special
yard. Special yard? Yes! They all have special needs
and live in this special yard that lets them play and
move freely. Some of them were born with medical
problems in their bones and some others had
accidents when they were little. However, everyone
has their special wheel chair and lives normally.
Susie is a little pig and she arrived at the shelter
when she was only three months old. She was

the size of the palm of your hand! She was the
smallest pig in the Shelter. Now, she has grown
and become strong. She always runs to greet
every visitor and then lays on the grass just to
get some belly rubs. Despite the common belief,
pigs are very picky when it comes to food. In
fact, when they feed them, they start with the
food they like the most, like cereals, and leave
the fruit and vegetables for later. In general, pigs
are very energetic and love the sunny hours
during the day and, obviously, mud baths.
Alex and Paris are two chickens that were
rescued from the egg industry. They are very little
but they are getting stronger each day. They love
when people pet them and feed them some corn
and grains. Also, they love to snuggle and sleep
together. They have a better life now!

Clear objectives
The shelter has been open for four years
now and they have 800,000 followers on Facebook, 150,000 on
Instagram, and their videos have been shared in different media
across the world. “We want this project to be like a seed. We know
that there are animals that we cannot protect, but if we protect the
ones around us, at least we are doing something,” said Marisol. All
the animals in the shelter are grown adults and strong now. They
got here very little. It has been a huge challenge because most of
them get here very weak.
“We believe that we are a big family of different species. Goats,
sheep, cats, dogs, cows, pigs, and even a bull play around freely
here” said Ariel. Also, there are volunteers and “Padrinos” or
sponsors who work day after day to give a better life to these
animals. The volunteers work directly with the animals while the
sponsors support the shelter and the animals economically. In this
way, they can have the food and the implements they need to take
good care of every animal.
