5th grade: SOCIAL SCIENCE. Unit 8 THE TIME OF THE CATHOLIC KINGS

Catholic Monarchs, also called Catholic Kings, or Catholic Majesties, Spanish Reyes Católicos, Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile, whose marriage (1469) led to the unification of Spain, of which they were the first monarchs.
Although employed earlier, the appellation Católicos was formally conferred on them in a bull published by Pope Alexander VI in 1494, in recognition of their reconquest of Granada from the Moors (1481–92), their New World discoveries (1492), and their strengthening of the church by such agencies as the Spanish Inquisition and such measures as compelling Jews to convert to Christianity or face exile (1492).

Dear Mr Vandaele,

I did the guided tour aboard the Vedettes de Paris cruise ship on Thursday with my class. I am writing to thank you for inviting us. We had a great time. I really enjoyed looking at the Tour Eiffel, Orsay and Louvre Museum, Notre Dame de Paris, Obelisque de la Concorde,... My favourite building was Notre Dame cathedral. After our visit, we made a paper Paris city and display it on the corridor of our school.
I'd like to visit your city again one day.

Your sincerely,
Mary Irgin

5th grade: Social Sciences ARQUITECTURA ROMÁNICA Y GÓTICA

El románico en Extremadura

Más que románico, habría que hablar de tardorrománico puesto que la presencia musulmana se prolongó en Extremadura hasta mediados del siglo XIII, época en la que el arte gótico ya estaba consolidado en la mitad norte de la Península. Por tanto hay pocos ejemplos de arquitectura románica, fundamentalmente en la mitad norte de Extremadura.
http://www.viajarporextremadura.com/cubic/ap/cubic.php/doc/El-romanico-en-Extremadura-331.htm
Basílica de Santa Eulalia (Mérida)

El gótico en Extremadura

El arte gótico surge en Extremadura de forma tardía con respecto al norte peninsular. Las órdenes militares, principalmente las de Santiago y Alcántara, son las principales impulsoras de las construcciones góticas. La mayor representación gótica es la catedral. En Extremadura destacan la catedral nueva de Plasencia , la de Coria y la de Badajoz, así como la concatedral de Santa María de Cáceres. Otras importantes manifestaciones de la arquitectura gótica son algunos castillos y palacios, entre los que destacan los castillos de Granadilla, Alburquerque, Montánchez, Burguillos del Cerro, Puebla de Alcocer, Coria y Belvís de Monroy, el Alcázar de los Duques de Feria, en Zafra, o la Casa de los Solís y la Casa de los Becerra, en Cáceres. Son especialmente relevantes algunas portadas góticas, como las de las iglesias de Villafranca de los Barros, Fuente del Maestre, Azuaga y Arroyo de la Luz.El monasterio de Yuste cuenta con un magnífico claustro gótico. Así mismo, el monasterio de Guadalupe conserva excelentes obras góticas, como la iglesia del Real Monasterio, las puertas de bronce y algunos sepulcros, como el del padre Gonzalo de Illescas.En Trujillo se encuentra el mejor retablo gótico de Extremadura, el de la iglesia de Santa María.En definitiva, todos estos ejemplos revelan que el gótico, en sus diversas tendencias, es el estilo artístico predominante en Extremadura.
Catedral de Cáceres
Catedral Vieja y Nueva de Plasencia
Catedral de Coria

Tras la batalla del Salado, Alfonso XI ordena la construcción de una fortaleza con una iglesia adosada. La iglesia debió construirse a finales del siglo XIV y debió estar terminada en los primeros años del siglo XV. Cuando Los jerónimos se hace cargo del monasterio en 1389 comienzan importantes obras de reforma como la fastuosa fachada meridional que sirve de entrada al templo, la construcción del claustro mudéjar incluyendo su célebre templete.

El mudéjar en Extremadura

El Monasterio de Guadalupe

El Monasterio de Guadalupe es una de las obras cumbres del gótico mudéjar no sólo en Extremadura sino de toda España.

La citada fachada tiene puertas de arcos apuntados superados por tímpanos, marcos rectangulares y un gran rosetón, todo con tracerías flamígeras muy mudejarizadas.

El claustro es de espectaculares dimensiones y formado por un cuadrilátero de tramos formados por dos pisos formados por arcos apuntados de herradura sobre pilares ochavados.

En el centro se erigió un originalísimo templete en el cual se funde armoniosamente las formas góticas e islámicas formando una especie de pirámide de gabletes de exquisito aspecto.

5th grade: SOCIAL SCIENCES:MEDIEVAL TIMES (ROMANESQUE VS GOTHIC STYLE)

The Middle Ages, or Medieval Times, in Europe was a long period of history from 500 AD to 1500 AD. That's 1000 years! It covers the time from the fall of the Roman Empire to the rise of the Ottoman Empire. 

This was a time of castles and peasants, guilds and monasteries, cathedrals and crusades. Great leaders such as Joan of Arc and Charlemagne were part of the Middle Ages as well as major events such as the Black Plague and the rise of Islam. 

The Romanesque style refers to the types of cathedrals, monasteries, and places of religion built during the 1000s-1100s in Europe, and it gets its name from looking very Roman in appearance. In other words, columns and arches were frequently used, just like in ancient Roman architecture. Gothic buildings, on the other hand, came later. These were popular just after the Romanesque style began to lose its appeal, and were very fancy in comparison.

Cathedrals in the Gothic style were often narrow inside, filled with stained glass windows, and frequently had what were known as “flying buttresses” or large, curved stone arches connected to the outside of the building to give it support. This style became very popular for cathedrals throughout Europe, such as Reims Cathedral in France and Westminster Abbey in England. Many of these cathedrals have been well taken care of, and you can still visit them today.

He lived during the Renaissance

He died on May 2, 1519. He was Italian.

Leonardo da Vinci was an artist, scientist, and inventor.

He painted the Mona Lisa, the Vitruvian Man and the Last Supper.

Flight was of particular interest to da Vinci. He studied the flight of birds and created plans for flying machines that resemble hang gliders and helicopters

The Vitruvian Man is a drawing by Leonardo da Vinci that describes the relationship between human proportions and geometry.

Da Vinci wrote in the opposite direction to what is normal, meaning you’d need a mirror to read it properly
