Se suele decir que, de todo lo malo, siempre puede sacarse una parte positiva. Puede que, para muchos casos, sea una frase que invita al autoconsuelo y carezca de un fundamento real pero, curiosamente, tiene un rastro de verdad cuando se habla del devastador incendio que azotó a la catedral de Notre Dame de París en abril de 2019.
A lo largo de nuestra historia como humanos nos hemos preguntado de numerosas formas si existe el alma. Se trata...
Sophie Germain, destacada matemática autodidacta nacida en París durante el Siglo de las Luces, es un ejemplo de superación y de lucha por los sueños.

In less than a week the summer holidays will be over and I'll be back into the whirlwind of teaching once again! I've been trying to get my brain back into "school mode" and I've been in and out of school sorting out my classroom and finding sources of inspiration. I have found some great teaching ideas over on Pinterest. If you haven't explored Pinterest, I urge you to now. Here are my Pinterest pin-boards. The best ideas are the simplest, you can pick up these little pots for very little cost. There's always the potential for chaos during a maths activity if everyone in the class needs to be rolling dice, so this is the perfect solution! This is one of my favourite ideas! In year 3 one of the science topic looks at what plants need to be healthy and this is the perfect and really easy way to illustrate to children exactly what is happening when a plant grows. One of the most interesting stages of a seed germinating is that first moment when the seed sprouts roots and this is ordinarily completely hidden from view. I'm definitely going to try this with my class this year! I also came across a fabulous idea of growing seeds inside lightbulbs that you hang from the window frames in the classroom. What a brilliant idea! My sister The Style PA suggested it could be adapted by inserting Kings and Queens. But this idea could be used in many ways. With a variety of book characters inserted, it would be a powerful way of children developing their skills of character description and would be an exciting way of starting a literacy lesson on descriptive language. Another brilliant and cost-effective storage solution. A great way of teaching children about erosion. Another recycling idea - using Starbucks plastic cups as paint pots. I think I may have to steal this for my classroom. I currently have words around my clock, but this is a simpler and and more visual aid for telling the time. Every child works at different speeds and there are inevitably going to be a few children that finish tasks early. This is a great way of having a quick and easy bank of extension tasks that can easily be adapted and added to depending on the context. This is a lovely idea for an early morning activity while children are filtering into school, a time filler activity, or as part of phonics sessions. (for sources follow this link)

German biologist and artist Ernst Haeckel dedicated his life studying far flung flora and fauna, drawing each of their peculiar specificities with an immense scientific detail. Haeckel made hundreds of such renderings during his lifetime, works which were used to explain his biological discoveries to a wide audience. In addition to these visual masterpieces, Haeckel also discovered many microbes, and coined several scientific terms commonly known today, such as ecology, phylum, and stem cell. More

We at Bright Side are certain that any subject, no matter how complicated, can be made interesting for children provided it’s explained in an accessible way. Take chemistry for example, which is often considered one of the toughest subjects for a child to learn at school. We suggest beginning with the most famous chemical elements and their characteristics.
¿Te suena el nombre de Laura Bassi? Lo más probable es que no, dado que es uno de esos fascinantes personajes que, a pesar de marcar un hito en la historia y desafiar las normas establecidas en su tiempo con un carácter empoderado, están condenados a que su nombre quede olvidado con el paso del tiempo.
