El pueblo Celta. Documentales en vídeo.

EMPEZAMOS SEMANA Y CON ELLA TEMA NUEVO: CELTS.

Os propongo que paséis un buen rato visionando los siguientes vídeos.  
¿Quiénes fueron los Celtas  y qué herencia nos dejaron? 

Estaban organizados en tribus  dotadas de un profundo sentido mágico, religioso y místico.
Eran grandes expertos en el arte de la guerra y defendieron sus tierras contra las invasiones romanas.
Los Celtas poblaron gran parte del terriotorio Europeo. Cruzaron los Pirineos y llegaron a nuestro país, expandiéndose por el Cántabrico y llegando hasta Galicia.
Influyeron en todas las culturas con las que entraron en contacto.

¿Quiénes eran y en qué creían? 
¿Cuál era su visión del mundo?

Eran un maravilloso pueblo que nos ha dejado un legado de historia fantástico, aunque desgraciadamente no escrita, porque ellos consideraban que la escritura destruía la cultura de un pueblo.
 
Los Celtas han sido los grandes desconocidos de nuestra antigua historia.
    Siempre se ha hablado de ellos  como un pueblo agresivo, salvaje y sanguinario y eso se lo debemos a los cronistas de la época que eran griegos, romanos y fenecios.

Los Celtas eran gente muy pacífica, amantes de la Naturaleza y respetuosos con el medio natural y sobre todo sentían una gran respeto por la mujer.
 Los Celtas surgen hace unos 3.500 años en el corazón de los Alpes de Austria, a orillas de un paradisiaco lago.
    Eran tribus que se aglutinaban en torno a una cultura, la cultura de la sal. Extraían la sal de la montaña y comerciaban con ella. Después se contituyeron como un país.
    Al principio eran 50 tribus.
La palabra Celta significa pueblo de lugares lejanos

El grupo espiritual celta más importante eran los druidas. Los druidas eran los que conocían todos los saberes de la Naturaleza, del Cosmos y del Ser humano. Ellos impartian clases por vía oral en medio del bosque.
    Los druidas eran los sacerdotes, los médicos, los maestros... Es una lástima  que no utilizaran la escritura para transmitirnos tanto saber. Lo aprendían todo de memoria y la educación era obligatoria.

CHICOS, YA VEIS TODO LO QUE HE APRENDIDO, SOBRE LOS CELTAS, VIENDO ESTOS VIDEOS. AHORA OS TOCA A VOSOTROS. 

ON THURSDAY AND FRIDAY I WILL TELL YOU A LOT OF THINGS ABOUT  CELTIC.



I hope you enjoy yourself with this new lesson: Celtcs

Peace´s day!


Imagine
                                                      
Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
And no Hell below us
Above us only sky

Imagine all the people

Living for today
Imagine there's no country
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Living life in peace
You may say I'm a dreamer   
But I'm not the only one
Maybe someday you will join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
Or Brotherhood of Man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
And maybe someday you will join us
And the world will be as one
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
Maybe someday you will join us
And the world will be as one.
John Lennon
John Winston Lennon (9 October 1940 – 8 December 1980) was an English musician and singer-songwriter who rose to worldwide fame as one of the founding members of The Beatles, one of the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed acts in the history of popular music. Along with fellow Beatle Paul McCartney, he formed one of the most successful songwriting partnerships of the 20th century.
Born and raised in Liverpool, Lennon became involved as a teenager in the skiffle craze; his first band, The Quarrymen, evolved into The Beatles in 1960. As the group disintegrated towards the end of the decade, Lennon embarked on a solo career that produced the critically acclaimed albums John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band and Imagine, and iconic songs such as "Give Peace a Chance" and "Imagine". After his marriage to Yoko Ono in 1969, he changed his name to John Ono Lennon. Lennon disengaged himself from the music business in 1975 to devote time to his infant son Sean, but re-emerged in 1980 with a new album, Double Fantasy. He was murdered three weeks after its release.
Lennon revealed a rebellious nature and acerbic wit in his music, his writing, his drawings, on film, and in interviews, becoming controversial through his political and peace activism. He moved to New York City in 1971, where his criticism of the Vietnam War resulted in a lengthy attempt by Richard Nixon's administration to deport him, while some of his songs were adopted as anthems by the anti-war movement.
As of 2010, Lennon's solo album sales in the United States exceed 14 million units, and as writer, co-writer or performer, he is responsible for 25 number-one singles on the US Hot 100 chart. In 2002, a BBC poll on the 100 Greatest Britons voted him eighth, and in 2008, Rolling Stone ranked him the fifth-greatest singer of all-time. He was posthumously inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1987 and into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994.


If you like we can sing the song all together.

The World of the spiders



Tarantulas are big, hairy spiders. They haven´t got a backbone; they are invertebrates.

Where do they live? 
There are tarantulas in Africa, Asia and Australia, but most of them live in North and south America. Some tarantulas live under the ground, some live on the ground and others live in trees.

What do they eat?
Tarantulas are carnivores. They eat insects like grasshoppers and beetles. Big tarantulas eat small lizards, snakes and frogs. They kill their prey with their poisonous fangs. They usually hunt at night.

Do tarantulas kill people?
Tarantulas kill small animals but they don´t  kill people.

Do tarantulas have babbies?
No, tarantulas don´t have babies. They lay eggs. Female tarantulas lay between 50  and 2,000 eggs. After six or seven weeks the young spiders hatch from the eggs.
