3.JUSTIFICACIÓN (how comes the need for this activity):
Township Glass Gallows which is our education center has a Center of Nature, tiny but interesting, but what kept closed if not for an arranged visit. Our goal is to visit to get the maximum benefit to the pair spent a day in nature studying the typical vegetation of the area.
addition, the need to introduce into the GLOBE data server of the Protocols of Vegetation Cover of our areas of study in the Glass Gallows output requires the immediate setting in which to collect data and samples for processing. These data are obtained through a process of prior training as to be performed during this field trip.

living together and breakfast together is very important:
Here 's a quick summary of Chema, Professor of Language Assistant to the output:
On March 24 students from 1 of the Eugenio CEIPSO ESO Wall Gallows the glass and three teachers made a departure to the Venero, along with the quarries. We left at nine o'clock and just over an hour later we were in front of a pond in which, as they soon discover the students themselves could be observed in frog eggs. The inimitable professional spot of Sciences, also known as David - he explained the importance of not altering a microenvironment like that, because such a small space depended on the life of frogs, snakes, maybe, algae, various microorganisms, etc.. Then we went to a pond just remarkable, apparently dirty and full of silt, but actually under that surface also beating a number of ways of life. Too bad that some savages had thrown in the middle of that space so cool a couple of containers: human stupidity has no limits, as already warned us many years no less than Albert Einstein.
And it was time to put away the sandwich, which we did with real enthusiasm, because we had walked a while and the day was wonderful: it was not hot and the sun shone and the time to return to the center, but did not all cold. Deserved break after sharing sandwiches, juices and swings (surprising success of these devices among boys), we at the Center for Nature Interpretation Cadalso, where the panels, model, recreated habitats and, of course, explanations of David, came away with a fair idea that the wealth of raptors, storks, mammals as diverse flora let alone Gallows The glasses have, and the need to preserve all with the utmost care. After that visit
we split into groups and the kids were square measuring ten meters by ten meters into the ground using tape measures and compasses. From these measurements could be calculated similarly, the size of the beautiful courtyard where the activity takes place. And finished it was time to return to the village, without missing all the time photos and a good atmosphere among peers (except for some small conflict common among kids). As we were leaving the students in their homes seemed to me that we were a kind of professional line as that was concerned with the guys from that collected from their homes until they are returned to it in "Finding Nemo." The pity is that we do not sing like him, for the joy that we had in the body is the only thing we missed.
