Work for week April 27th- 1st May The Renaissance in Italy and architecture

This week we are continuing with unit 1 the Renaissance in Italy (I) and architecture.

I also want to let you know about the new assessment criteria for Geography and History.


1. Here you are an explanation about point 8 of your book. You have already worked in an introduction in the past week. The Renaissance in Italy and architecture.

It is very important that you take a look at the pictures and legends I publish here. They will help you understand what you are hearing.

Take notes while you listen to the audio (don´t be lazy and listen to it as many times as necessary)

Do activity 11: already published in unit 1 and send it to me before Friday 1 May

You need to know and learn the concepts and names and periods of works of art published here.

Linear perspective. 
Method used to create the sense of depth by making lines converge in the vanishing point.

Vitruvian man. Leonardo da Vinci. Human proportions are used to make things beautiful and harmonious.

The ideal proportions of a human figure: the height of a person equals the measure of 8 heads.

5. Here you are an explanation about point 8.2 Architecture and its periods.

Between 1420-1426 Brunelleschi added the huge dome (cúpula) to the gothic cathedral of Florence.  Quattrocento (15th c.)

Rucellai Palace by Alberti. Quatrocento (15th c.) Doric, Ionic and Corinthian pilasters are used in different floors. It aims beauty by bringing a harmonious and proportionate structure.

These are the architectural orders followed by the ancient Greeks. They are going to be an inspiration for Renaissance architects. Doric, Ionic, Corinthian. Greeks used them separately but Renaissance architects are going to incorporate the three of them to the same building in different floors.

The human proportions are used to design the height of each floor of the Palazzo Rucellai. Round drawings on the right represent a human head.

San Pietro in Montorio by Bramante, Cinquecento (16th c.) It has a circular and centralised plan and Doric columns. It also holds a dome.

Felices vacaciones de Semana Santa

Querid@s alumn@s,

Aviso importante para el alumnado de Geography and History 3ESO

1. POSIBLE CAMBIO DE CRITERIOS DE CALIFICACIÓN PARA LA TERCERA EVALUACIÓN
Como aún no sabemos cuándo volveremos clase, el Departamento de Geografía e Historia del IES Luis García Berlanga está estudiando la posibilidad de hacer un cambio en los criterios de calificación de la asignatura para la tercera evaluación para dar más peso a la entrega de las actividades que aquella que figuraba en vuestras programaciones de inicio de curso.

Por ello os animamos a que os pongáis al día durante las vacaciones de Semana Santa terminando y entregando todas las actividades en la forma en la que os las haya pedido vuestro profesor.

2. POSIBLE REALIZACIÓN DE EXÁMENES ONLINE
Para evitar que se vayan acumulando temas, es probable también que empecemos a haceros exámenes online a través de aplicaciones como Kahoot (convendría que os la fuerais descargando), así es que si tenéis alguna duda sobre el contenido de la asignatura, preguntad a vuestr@ profesor@.

3. REALIZACIÓN DE TRABAJOS PARA LOS ALUMNOS QUE NO HAYAN HECHO EL EXAMEN DE RECUPERACIÓN DE LA SEGUNDA EVALUACIÓN
El Departamento de Geografía e Historia ha previsto, para aquellos alumnos de la ESO que no hubieran hecho la recuperación de la 2ª evaluación, la realización de un trabajo de recuperación que deberéis entregar a vuestro profesor para que valore si habéis recuperado. Vuestro profesor se pondrá en contacto con vosotros para explicaros en qué consiste el trabajo.

No debéis preocuparos si ya estáis trabajando; entendemos que casi tod@s estáis trabajando muy bien y que estáis aprendiendo muchas cosas.

¡Mucho ánimo para tod@s!


Departamento de Geografía e Historia del IES Luis García Berlanga, Coslada.
