My Food Festival Blog a food festival
in Chile?
Hello, I'm Mikela from Malta. Malta is a small country
but there are lots of food festivals. Here are two of my favourites.
The first food festival of the year is the Citrus Festival in January.
Farmers pick oranges and lemons in winter, so there's lots of fresh
fruit to eat. At the festival, there's a cookery class, where you can
learn a recipe for orange biscuits or make a lemon cake.
In April, there's a strawberry festival in my village. There is sweet
food, like strawberry cakes and smoothies, and there is savoury
food too. There is pasta with strawberry
sauce! Or how about strawberry sushi?
It's delicious, I promise!

Endangered Animals What is an
endangered animal?
in China
Native animals are those animals that live in a specific
habitat or ecosystem.
Animal habitats are affected by human actions.
Sometimes our actions can damage or harm the
environment, causing animals to lose their habitats.
If animals have no place to live, they are in danger of
extinction and can disappear from the planet forever.
A good example of this problem is in China, where animals like the giant panda and the
Amur leopard are considered to be endangered.
Giant pandas live in the misty mountains of southwest China and
nowhere else on Earth. They eat bamboo and live near these plants.
Because pandas are hunted, there are not many of them today.
The Amur leopard is listed as critically endangered, because there
are fewer than 100 individuals left. They live in forests and they adapt
well to cold temperatures. Their fur changes with the seasons, with
short hair in summer, and long hair in winter.

CHILE My family and I went camping last weekend
and I met a new friend. She was very shy, and
she didn’t talk too much, so I talked to her.
Her name is Liz and she is nice, friendly, and
smart, she knows a lot about animals and their
habitats. Liz went there with her parents and
her brother Peter, who was very lazy.
He didn’t like any activities and he just wanted
to sleep. We had a great time camping,
especially because my father was always
making jokes and we laughed a lot.
He is so funny!

Getting on Board
Ready!
Different means of transport can take us to many different places. Some have got
wheels and others haven't. Cars have got four wheels and they are fast.
Regular bikes have got two wheels and they also have got pedals, but they are slow
compared to cars. Planes have got wheels too, but only for landing. They have got
two wings and they can fly long distances; they are really fast! Boats don't fly or
have wheels and they move slowly, but they can travel long distances on water.

Daniel and Lucía had their Grandpa's birthday party on Saturday. They are from
Copiapó, and their Grandpa lives in Chillán. Daniel and Lucía love adventures, so they
decided to try different types of transportation to get to their destination. They
had never travelled by plane, so they took one to La Serena. They were surprised
to see how big and fast planes are! Once they got to La Serena, they took a bus to
Santiago. It was a long trip, but they had fun playing cards and listening to music.
When they arrived in Santiago, Lucía suggested they travel to Chillán by train. They
took a train to Chillán in Estación Central. They had a great time watching the
scenery change, passing through cities like Rancagua, Curicó, Talca, and Linares,
until they finally got to Chillán. Their Grandpa was waiting at the station. They had
a great adventure, but they were very happy to get some rest and see their family!

Saving Energy
Fossil fuels, like coal and petroleum, are sources of energy used to generate
electricity. The problem is that they harm the environment. They produce carbon
dioxide that flows into the atmosphere, where it accumulates and contributes to
global warming and air and water pollution.
One way to help solve this problem is the use of other sources of energy, like
wind and the sun, for sustainable transportation. Here are some examples of
sustainable transportation used in Chile.
Solar boat taxis. They are used to cross Calle-Calle
River in Valdivia. They use 100% solar energy for their
engines, and they carry 26 passengers per boat.
Trolleys. Valparaíso has a long history of sustainable
transportation. Trolleys are considered National
Historical Monuments. Like the elevators on
the hills of this city, they work with electricity,
which causes less air pollution.
Electric buses. In the last few years, new
electric buses were bought for the public
transport network in Santiago.

Hi! I'm Julio. Let me share with you a story about my summer
holidays. Last summer, I did a lot of fun things! First, I got on

She lives in a really nice cabin that is very close to the mountains.
We went hiking, played the guitar and sang songs. I didn't want to

Pie charts are one way of showing or representing information. This
type of chart is generally used to compare part of the information

about people’s favourite destinations when going on holiday.

Mind Sports
W hen we think about sports, the first thing that comes to mind are activities
involving movement (running, swimming, jumping, etc.). But did you know
that there are other types of sports called mind sports?
Board Games
They are games in which there are
usually two opponents that play using
a board, where they must plan a series
of movements in order to win. They are
challenging games that require intense
thinking and concentration. Players
hardly ever take their eyes off the board,
even for several hours! Some board
game examples include Chess, Go and
Chess competition
Backgammon, which have competitions
all over the world.
Carioca
Uno
Memory Games
Games such as Sudoku and
Spelling Bee are also considered
mind games, because they
are activities that require
high levels of memory and
calculation. These games
are contested two times per
year in the World Memory Spelling Bee competition
Championships.
Mind sports are growing and becoming more popular. Did you know any of
these? Do they look like other games you know? Which other games can be
classified in this category?

The
Mermaid of
Abundance and Plenty
When the priest was saying his last words at the marriage ceremony, the father of
the bride arrived in the city. No one knows exactly how, but at that exact moment
the city vanished along with every single person that lived there, including the
two young lovers. The Cacique and his soldiers went around the entire area,
including the mountains and the seashore, but the city
was nowhere to be found.

The
Hare and the
Tortoise
An Aesop Fable
O ne day a hare was showing off how fast he could run. He bragged and
bragged and even laughed at the tortoise, who was so slow. The tortoise
looked at the hare, stretched out his long neck and challenged him to a race. The
hare started to laugh.
"My, my, what a joke!" thought the hare. "A race, indeed, a race. Oh! What fun!
My, my! a race, of course, Mr. Tortoise, let's race!" said the hare.
The race began, and the hare, being such a fast runner, soon left the tortoise far
behind. About halfway through the course, the hare realised he had plenty of time
to beat the slow-moving tortoise.
Some days later, while following his prey in the forest, the Lion was caught in
a hunter's net. Unable to free himself, he filled the forest with his angry roaring.
The Mouse knew his voice and found the Lion struggling in the net. Running to one
of the big ropes that tied him up, she bit it until it cut, and soon the Lion was free.
"You laughed when I said I would repay you," said the Mouse. "Now you see that
even a Mouse can help a Lion."

Try Geocaching!
Meet Lennart from Germany.
Last summer, my mum and I had a look at a
geocaching website. Geocaching is like a
treasure hunt, where you use a GPS to hide and
seek containers called “geocaches” or “caches”
at specific places by using coordinates.
There are caches all over the world! Caches
are usually small boxes with a logbook and a
pen. When you find a cache, you write the date,
and a message in the logbook. You can find Go geocaching with
other items too, like stickers, small toys and someone, like your
postcards. We found caches in the forest and
found coins, marbles and badges.
Tip parents or a friend, and
prepare a bag with water
and snacks for the trip.
