STUDYING BIOLOGY IN ENGLISH

As we decided to follow the European session in Lycée Prieur, we have 1h30 per week of science taught in English by Mrs LABAUNE, a biology teacher. I am going to tell you all the themes that we have studied this year :

  • theme one : what is a body made of ? Example of the vertebrates

Lesson one : what is a vertebrate ?

Lesson two : Let’s learn more about the anatomy of vertebrates

Lesson three : what does the microscope reveal ?

  • theme two : what does an animal organism need to develop and get renewed ?

Lesson one : animals need food

Lesson two : animals need to breathe

Lesson three : what is a balanced diet made of ?

Lesson four : the importance of eating well

During two sessions we played a game about animals. We had a picture which represented an animal and the other pupils had to make us guess which animal it was. It was very funny !

Besides, during our trip to England, we visited the NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM of London. The latter houses collections of life and earth sciences (approximately 70 millions of specimens ! Can you believe it ?). This amazing museum is well- known for its entrance hall dominated by the skeleton of a diplodocus and for the exhibition of skeletons of dinauraurs. The museum houses five major collections in the following areas :

-botany

-entomology

-mineralogy

-paleontology

-zoology

We are so lucky to learn English outside the English class. It is definitely a plus for us in our mastering of Shakespeare’s language !
