Within the Project "Sharing Experience Across the Ría", CEIP PLURILINGÜE Grade 5 students have made a research about the school area by the Ría and how it has changed in recent years to share with another school across the Ría.
Volcanoes are one of the most powerful forces on Earth. Even more powerful are supervolcanoes. Yellowstone National park is home to North America's largest supervolcano. It is also home to some interesting geological features and lots of wildlife. Check out our presentation to find out more!

New Orleans: A City Under Water pt. I, II & III
This was the capstone presentation for our Global Warming project. We had the idea to compare two cities in the world. One city that the students were familiar with, Vigo, and another city of the same size that our auxiliar de conversación was familiar with, New Orleans.
New Orleans was the site of the 2004 hurricane Katrina natural disaster. The entire city is, and was, built under sea level. So, with a little bit of strong wind and rain, the city itself could be flooded very easily.
This presentation goes through the history and geography of the city, so that the students can more easily relate to the effects of Global Warming. At the very end of the geography section there are two really cool maps that use GIS (Geographic Information Systems) to measure what would happen if the global temperature increased and the sea-level rises. You should definitly check out the maps!
Global warming definitions_clil_ceip_pl_riadevigo_2017riaenglish
In this segment of our Global Warming project, we created definitions to define the causes and effects that our students had brainstormed earlier in the year. With dramatic pictures of Global Warming effects, we were able to show the severity of climate change.
