LET'S MAKE
A TREE
1ºESO A: April 3rd, 2007 We learnt the parts
of a tree and how a tree works with a simple
performance
directed by Eleonora Scheltus. |
|
Jose and Manuel
represented
the nerve of the
plant. Its function is to
hold the tree upright. Juan Carlos, Angela and Juan José were
the
roots
which absorb water and minerals from the soil.  |
Isa, Sandra, Isabel D.
R. and María
represented the xylem vessels
which transport the crude sap (water and minerals) from the roots to
the leaves. On the right,
our theatre director: Nora.
 |
Alejandro,
Fran, Isabel D. G. were
the leaves. They make food for
the plant using water from the soil and carbon dioxide taken from the
atmosphere. |
Four more students
represented floem vessels. Elaborated sap moves through floem
vessels from the leaves to the rest of the plant. |
| In order to complete the tree we added some
more
actors and actresses to represent the bark that protects
the tree from fungi, insects, woodpeckers... Alvaro Gago and Francisco
Calvillo played this role as you can see on the videos. |
