Today we have started the class assesing our classmates´ questionaries aboout the unit. Besides, the teacher has sent us a document with the right answers so it was easier to check if they were right or not in their answers. So, it is a good opportunity to sel-learning.
 
The second part of the class was based on the ecosystems´ explanation. Teacher gave time to read the unit and understand some basic concepts such as habitat, species, population, community, ecosystem, nutrients, community, population....   The most important part of the lesson was the concept of photosynthesis which is the first step in a food chain. So, it is really important fot ecosystems.
