LABORATORY IN CLASS
The faculty of the subjects of Biology and Geology, Physics and Chemistry and Mathematics We have selected simple experiments and the interested students or the teachers themselves have made a demonstration to the rest of the group, exposing the scientific foundations of the same.
Our main objective is awaken scientific curiosity in students at this level and the ability to question the reason for events, a prior step to formulate hypotheses.

HISTORY OF THE EARTH IN ONE YEAR
The students of the Curriculum Enrichment Program worked during the first term on the project “History of the Earth in one year” .
After learning about different theories about the formation and antiquity of the Earth, they investigated when the most important events occurred, such as the formation of the Moon, the appearance of oxygen, the ice ages, the disappearance of the dinosaurs or the appearance of man and civilizations. .
They then calculated on what day these events would have occurred assuming a year had passed since the Earth was created.
Finally, they prepared a presentation and a game with the data previously calculated that they presented to their classmates from 2nd ESO A.

EXPERIMENTAL ERRORS UNDER CONTROL !!
In any measurement done in science, mistakes are made. Some of these errors are committed in a systematic way due to some error in the measuring device (bad calibration, bad manufacture of the measuring instrument, deformations in said devices, etc.) or due to bad practice by the experimenter (misuse of the tools , incorrect reading of these or even inadvertent errors like stopping a stopwatch)
The objective for the 2nd ESO A, B and D students was to know how the absolute and relative error committed can be calculated mathematically and subsequently, put them into practice and calculate them with 3 simple tests.
Calculation of the volume of a liquid.
For this, a beaker was filled with an indeterminate amount of water and several students were asked to measure the marked volume, obtaining large differences because the apparatus measured sections of 50 ml.
Time to travel a certain distance.
For this test, a student sped through the length of his classroom while 3 classmates timed the time. The results were also very different because of the reflexes of each one in starting and stopping the stopwatch.
Measure the length of the board.
Without doubt the most satisfactory test. Several students measured their class blackboard with a flexible tape measure, this time obtaining less disparate results as it was a more precise measuring instrument.
At the end of each experiment, the students performed the calculations with the data obtained by their classmates and a small debate was held about the goodness of the data taken.
