Valores Cívicos y Sociales - La resilencia

¿ Eres una persona resilente?

En esta entrada del blog podrás descubrir si tienes una capacidad humana muy útil: la resilencia.

En primer lugar, supongo que te harás una de estas preguntas:

¿ Qué es ser resilente? o ¿ Qué es la resilencia?

Para que puedas averiguarlo y luego realizar la tarea que te voy a proponer debes leer el artículo que puedes encontrar en el siguiente enlace y ver el vídeo pinchando en la imagen de abajo.

ARTÍCULO : "  RESILENCIA: LOS 12 HÁBITOS DE LAS PERSONAS RESILENTES.

Una vez que tienes la información sobre esta capacidad te toca pensar un poco, hacer un esfuerzo para conocerte a ti mismo/a y contestar por escrito en un folio a estas cuestiones.

1. ¿ Ves en ti mismo/a algunos de los hábitos de las personas resilentes? ¿ Cuáles tienes y cuáles no tienes?

2. Pon un ejemplo de una situación en la que tú mismo/a o alguien que tú conozcas haya tenido una conducta resilente.

Cuando volvamos de las vacaciones de Navidad compartiremos las respuestas en clase.




Un saludo.

Joaquín.

Good morning children,

We hope you are feeling well. Here are some proposals for bilingualism in the blog divided by areas.

Remember, the holidays are just around the corner.

 

Social


Here are the answers to yesterday's questions. Correct them in your notebook with the template.

 

Questions about : THE RESTORATION: 1875-1923

 

 What did the peaceful turn (turno pacífico) consist of during the reign of Alfonso XII?

 

Under his reign, there was a new political system: the turno Pacífico. Only two political parties were permitted: the Liberals and the Conservatives. These parties took turns in holding power.

 

2º Who were the most important political figures during the reign of Alfonso XII?

 

In this new system of alternating power, there were two key political figures:

 

• Antonio Cánovas del Castillo, who was Prime Minister six times and leader of the Conservatives.

• Práxedes Mateo Sagasta, who was Prime Minister eight times and leader of the Liberals.

 

 

3º What were the pros and cons of the Restoration period?

 

PROS:

 

·       After a century of instability, Spain was stable again.

 

·       It was a period of economic prosperity and modernization.

 

·       There was peace and prosperity in Cuba and Puerto Rico.

 

 

CONS:

 

·       The only way to guarantee the system would work was through electoral fraud: the King chose the government and the result of the election was decided in advance.

 

·       Basque and Catalan nationalism grew in protest against the unfair system.

 

 

 

Here is the presentation again:
