The largest trees in the world. Remember General Sherman?

Hey kids, a while ago we talked about sequoia trees in spanish when we read "Nabuco" by Ema Wolf. Back then i showed you some pictures but here is a nice video to show you both Sequoias and Coastal Redwoods, another gigantic tree (even taller than general Sherman). Hope you enjoy!

Día del animal.

Hola chicos, en el día del animal quiero dejarles una noticia periodística (tema que trabajaremos con sexto más adelante, pero pueden ir practicando su lectura desde ahora) sobre el tráfico de animales y las estadísticas muy tristes que hay al respecto. Ojalá todos tomemos conciencia y los animales puedan vivir dónde y como corresponde.

Good news for the giant tortoises!

Here is the most fantastic news report in a while. Giant tortoises from Galapagos islands are no longer in dager of becoming exctinct! The report says: "The island is now home to over 1,500 of the giants. This is a far cry from just fifty years ago, when the population of the saddle-backed shell tortoises that once used to inhabit  Española Island in the thousands, had been reduced to just 15". Here is the full article:  http://www.dogonews.com/2014/11/2/galapagos-island-giant-tortoises-saved-from-near-extinction
