UNIT SUMMARY
VALUES AND ATTITUDES
In this unit, students will learn facts about the Earth and different planets in
the Solar System as well as the Moon. They will explain the stages of the
water cycle and identify and describe different bodies of water on Earth.
In this unit the students will learn about what makes our planet special. The
students will work both individually and collaboratively.
They will be asked to investigate facts about different aspects of the Solar
System, giving them an appreciation of the world in which we live.
To begin with, they will learn not only about the Earths movement,
atmosphere and layers but also about what makes Earth such a special
planet. They should enjoy discovering the uniqueness of our planet.
They will then start to study the interaction of the Sun, Earth and Moon and
then the phases of the Moon and how they can be identified.
Students will gain appreciation of the water cycle and bodies of water on
Earth and how they affect us and our planet. They will be faced with issues
of water conservation and potential and real damage to our planet. They
will be encouraged to think deeply about the human impact on our planet.
Towards the end of the unit they will concentrate on the water cycle and
how it is beneficial to life on Earth. They will be able to identify each stage of
the water cycle and give a detailed description of each one.
Students will consider and analyse issues regarding the water crisis and
types of pollution in the air, water and on land. They will analyse the effects
of this pollution and how humans can have a positive effect on our planet.
The students will learn what makes up the hydrosphere and how to identify
bodies of water such as lakes, oceans, seas and rivers.
Fragile world
In the fragile world section at the end of the unit, students will learn that
pollution can be in the air we breathe, in bodies of water and even on the
land we inhabit. They will discover the different types of activities that cause
pollution, both natural and human, and how it can harm both our health
and our planet.
Students will be asked to think about both the short term and long term
consequences of pollution.
They will learn about an important environmentalist group called Friends of
the Earth, what they do for us and why groups like these are a worthwhile
cause.

UNIT SUMMARY
In this unit, students will consider Europe as a geographical entity as

opposed to a political one. They will learn the names and locations of the
most important mountains, seas and rivers in Europe. They will become
aware of the boundaries of Europe, with particular reference to the
landforms separating Europe and Asia.
In this unit, students will learn facts and figures about the continent of
Europe. They will need to memorise information.
They will mainly work individually but will be asked to give feedback to other
students on their work. They will need to do this constructively and to
receive constructive criticism positively.
Students will review and build on knowledge of the countries and capital
cities of Europe and their location on a map. They will also learn about the
populations of the most highly-populated European cities. Students will
focus on the important mountain ranges and bodies of water in Europe.
They will be able to locate them on a map as well as learning facts about the
height of specific mountain ranges and peaks, and different types of rivers.

UNIT SUMMARY
The students will learn about the economy both at local, national and
European level, which will help them understand the community where they
live in greater depth.
In this unit, the students will learn about the world of work which, one day,
they will be part of. They will be able to relate the information they are
exposed to, in the unit, to their own lives and to the development of their
country. They will analyse the world of work and share their conclusions
with their classmates. They will also learn about making informed decisions
based on what they experience; particularly in relation to advertising and
selling techniques. The students will be encouraged to explain their ideas,
defend their arguments, as well as listening and accommodating other
points of view.
The students will investigate the primary section, including different types of
land management and the extraction of raw materials; the secondary sector
and the manufacture of products; and the tertiary sector, services, tourism
and trade.
The importance of each sector to the Spanish economy is an integral part of
the unit. The unit also focuses on the European economy, and the value of
the different sectors within Europe.
Fragile world
The students live in a world where they constantly encounter selling
techniques and advertising. This section will analyse these techniques and
encourage students to be responsible consumers, buying to their needs, not
the needs of the seller. The students should be aware that advertising
informs but, also exploits peoples needs, and they will learn to identify the
real message behind the slogan.
The students will also study the importance of advertising and selling
techniques, allowing them to make informed decisions in their own lives.

UNIT SUMMARY
In this unit the students will be introduced to some basics of business,

personal finance and the challenges of running a company.
In this unit, the students will learn about personal finance and running
businesses.
They will begin by finding out how companies are structured and what
entrepreneurs need to think about when starting a new company. Then they
will learn in more detail about the different kinds of fixed and variable costs
involved in running a business. This is important because more and more
young people are entering into business, sometimes even while still
students.
Students will work both individually and in groups and should be

encouraged to take both individual and collaborative responsibility.
They will learn about costs, profits and losses in a business setting but also
about the value of money in regular life.
They will be asked to brainstorm ideas in a group and to reach a consensus
about which idea to develop. They will need to be creative and to not get
too attached to one idea in case it is rejected later in the planning stage.
The students will learn about ways to save money and how to plan a budget
in their daily life to help them manage their own money. This will require
some Basic maths skills.
Fragile world
In this unit, students will also investigate what they would need to consider
if they were starting their own business and present their ideas to the class.
Students will read about an alternative type of company that doesnt

operate for profit NGOs. They will learn what socially responsible activities
some well-known for-profit companies carry out and think about how they
themselves could help collect money for charity.
They will also learn about socially responsible companies and nongovernmental organisations (NGOs).

Century has influenced modern times. They will appreciate the interwoven
nature of historical events and how different countries affect the history of
others.
They will learn about the value of democracy and freedom by comparing it
with absolutism.
Students will begin with a general introduction to the period and a more
detailed examination of the inventions of the Industrial Revolution and their
effect on how workers worked.
They will see that social status used to be something a person could not
easily overcome and perhaps appreciate that they have access to
healthcare, education and social mobility.
They will focus on the reigns of the Spanish monarchs of this time: Carlos IV,
Fernando VII and Isabel II and on the events that took place during their
rule. They will also learn about Napoleon and Joseph Bonapartes
involvement in Spanish politics.
Students will also deepen their understanding of the art of the times: its
meanings and its messages.
Finally, students will learn about social changes in 19th century Spain and
how they were reflected in the art of Goya.
