Elementary School Lessons

Spring rolls with ground chicken, finely chopped carrots, red bell peppers, onions and garlic served with tomato ketchup served in a sunny yellow lunch box with a yellow Bento Japanese toothpick:

If I remember it right, these were for breakfast, not for lunch. The kids arrive at school early and have time for breakfast. They don’t have enough time for a leisurely breakfast in the morning before the school bus arrives so they bring their breakfast to school.

Kampo Trexo field trip was fun. There are many activities to do in Kampo Trexo and here are some of what the son and his classmates did (warning: there are a lot of photos in this entry so I hope your internet connection is good):

The son lining up to go down the zipline:

The Kampo Trexo zip line from below:

Kampo Trexo Rock/Wall Climbing. This looks easy but not all the children were able to reach the top:

Kampo Trexo rappelling:

Kampo Trexo Obstacle Course: Read the rest…

Entrance to Balite Falls:

Going down to where the waterfalls are:

Children enjoying themselves:

They are all off-limits to go near the waterfalls. The field trip facilitators are manning the rope that stops them from going there.

Lovely isn’t it?

Who needs to go to the bathroom when you got free-flowing water to remove the dirt off?

Fun, fun, field trip.

Review Notes for 5th grade Science covering Reproductive System.

MALE reproductive system
• Primary male reproductive organs are the testes, enclosed in a suspended sac-like structure called scrotum.

• Each testis has coiled tubes known as seminiferous tubules. Uncoiled, these measure 250meters. Inside the tubules are packs of cells that produce sperm cells.

• Epididymis is a set of coiled tubes (one for each testis) where sperm cells are temporarily stored.

• Vas deferens is a muscular tube that transports the sperm-containing fluid called semen.

• Seminal vesicles are structures attached to the vas deferens beside the urinary bladder.

• The prostate gland is located at the base of the urethra, just below the bladder. It produces part of the semen.

• The channel that carries the semen to the outside of the body through the penis is the urethra.

• Found between seminiferous tubules are interstitial cells that produce the male sex hormones called testosterone. Testosterone is the hormone responsible for the development of secondary male characteristics like facial hair growth and deepening of the voice, among others.

• A hormone is a substance that has a specific effect on a body activity.

Ang sugnay ay lipon ng mga salitang may simuno at panaguri ngunit bahagi lamang ng pangungusap.

May dalawang  uri ng sugnay:

• Ang sugnay na makapag-iisa ay bahagi ng pangnungusap na may buong diwa kahit ihiwalay sa pangungusap.

• Ang sugnay na di-makapag-iisa naman ay hindi nagbibigay ng pinangungunahan ng pangatnig gaya ng ngunit, samantalang, kung, para, habang.

Halimbawa:

• Sugnay na makapag-iisa

1. Ang kalinisan sa kapaligiran ay dapat na panatilihin

• Sugnay na di-makapag-iisa

1. nang maging malusog ang bayan natin.

Ang parirala ay lipon ng mga salitang walang simuno at panaguri. Wala itong buong diwa.
