A Trip to the SCIENCE MUSEUM

VISITING THE SCIENCE MUSEUM IN VALLADOLID

Written by 3ºA students in cooperative writing

On Thursday, February 22 2018 the Bilingual groups of 3ºESO went on a trip to Valladolid with our Science teacher Ignacio de Blas to visit the Science Museum.
There were several remarkable exhibitions there.
Off we go!

NUTRITION, VITAL IMPULSE
The first thing we saw was a video about food in the different periods of history. There was a puzzle which showed the percentage of water in some foods and in the human body. You could also smell different foods and try to guess what each one was. Besides, there were some computers showing the typical dishes of some countries, as well as information about the calories and nutrients in each food. Playing with interactive games, we also learnt about the food pyramid and the diseases we can get if we don’t have a proper diet.










THE TREASURES OF TUTANKHAMUN
In 1928 Howard Carter discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings. This archaeologist found the pharaoh’s personal objects by digging a hole in the wall of the burial chamber.
 


 THE PLANETARIUM: Energy for Life

In the Planetarium, we saw an audiovisual presentation in English about renewable and non-renewable energies and the impact they cause. The resources have evolved from the fire mainly used in pre-history to fossil fuels and coal used nowadays. These resources can cause a severe harm in the environment, producing global warming and the greenhouse effect. Therefore, we need to find new renewable energies such as wind power.

  1. This was an amazing trip. We learned a lot about nutrition and the kilocalories oF food. The projection about the energy was so interesting. I hope we will return to the museum early.
