This is a blog created by Ms Luminati (science teacher), Ms Mathis (English teacher) and Ms Burguière (science teacher) for the students of lycée expérimental André Malraux (Biarritz, France) who are learning science in English. They want to show that science is fun, interesting and easy particularly when it is done in English! This year we hope to work again with some fine European partners. Let us all have fun together!

The vending machine of my foyer
The vending machine of our foyer.
Dear Camila and Gracie,
Today I am going to present you the vending machine in our foyer. So in our vending machine there is practically only sugar as sodas, diet coke, sugar free coke... and some salt product as chips and really little soft food as fruit purée and sesame biscuits. So I can say that we haven’t good food inside of it and of very transformed.
In your high school do you have a vending machine?
Do you have some health food?
What choice do you have ?
What is your favorite food?
Thank you for answering to my questions.
Bye Cloé

Dear Emery & Emerson
In our hightschool there is a place that in french is named "foyer", where we can take a break. In it there is a vending machine were we can buy snacks and drinks like kinder, sodas, bars of chocolate, biscuits...
Hes made of Carbonated water, Caramel colour, Phosphoric acid, Aspartame, Potassium benzoate, Natural flavour, Acesulfame-potassium, Potassium citrate, Caffeine.
There is a lot of sugar but we can also takes one without but it don't taste the same and I prefer the one with.
Do you have vending machine in your school ?
If yes, what do you have in it ?
What is your favorite snacks ?
Do you often takes something in it ?
See you soon

the price is cheap and the food delicious
my favorite snack in the vending of our foyer is a kinder bueno there Ingredients is: much MILK chocolate (sugar, cocoa butter, cocoa mass, skimmed MILK powder, concentrated BUTTER, emulsifier: lecithins (SOYA), vanillin), sugar, much palm oil, WHEAT flour, HAZELNUTS , skimmed MILK powder, MILK powder, chocolate (sugar, cocoa mass, there is not much cocoa butter, emulsifier: lecithins (SOYA), vanillin), ...
What's your favorite snack ?

What is a degrees
-We have three degrees scales Celcius(°C), Fahrenheit(°F) and Kelvin(°K). Formule to convert °F->°C: C=(F-32)x5/9
°C->°F: F=(Cx9/5)+32
-Freezing point of water is 0°Celsius equals 32°Fahrenheit
-Boiling point of water is 100°Celsius equals 212°Fahrenheit
-The two scales meet at one temperature -40°C like -40°F
-The scales differente, a change of 1°C equals 1.8°F
-Origins of the scales Celsius date is 1742 and is based on the freezing and boiling points of water. Fahrenheit date is 1724 based on a mix of physical experiment for exemple human body temperature.
-0°Kelvin equals -273°C

Dear Aneele and Lorelai,
Today, I'm going to present you our vending machine which is located in the foyer (students resting room). It contains eitghteen different types of snacks such as chocolate bars, biscuits, chips or fruit purée and ten different sodas like sugar free coke as well as water. Prices are reasonable and compared to other vending machines, everything is quite healthy.
My favorite snack is Kinder Bueno and I am about to present it scientifically :

What is a degree
What is a degree?
A degree is a unit used to measure temperatures. You can express it in °C,K or °F
The fahrenheit scale was created by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in the 18th century. During his studies in Poland, he decided to create a temperature scale based on the blood temperature in the human body: he chose 98.6°F he then added more temperatures such as; the melting point of ice(32°F)and the boiling point of the water(212°F)
After The French Revolution at the end of the 18th century,a lot of countries changed their temperature scale from Fahrenheit to Celsius since it was a lot more easier. Indeed, in celsius the freezing point of water is 0°C and the boiling point of water is 100°C
Finally, Lord Kelvin invented the Kelvin scale which is now the most used temperature scale in the world
Those scales give us formules:
C=(F-32)*5/9 ; F=(C*5/9)+32
0°C=32°F 0°F=-18°C 0 K=-273°C
100°C=212°F 98.6°F=37°C
-40°C=40°F

What is a degree
The degree is a unit to measure the temperature
There is 3 types of degree used in the world
-The Celcius (the most used in the world)
-The Farenheit (used in USA)
-The Kelvin (international system)
Gabriel Farenheit created the scale of farenheit during the 18th century
Boiling temp of water : 100°C / 373°K/212°F
Freezing temp of water : 0°C/273°K/32°F

What is a degree?
A degre can be in three different units : the Fahrenheit in F, the Kelvin in K and the Celsius in C. The boiling point of water is at 100°C so in Fahrenheit it's at 212°C. Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit base on the tempeture of the blood. That units are create in the 18e century.
We have three different formula:
- Form the Celsius to the Fahrenheit :C=(F-32)*5/9
- Form the Fahrenheit to the Celsius: F=(C*9/5)+32
- Form the Celsius to the Kelvin: K=C+273
- Form the Kelvin to the Celsius: C=K-273

The maga flash lightning
This colossal flash surpassed the previous record of 709 km, set in Brazil in 2018. Contrary to popular belief, this type of lightning is not vertical but horizontal, spreading between clouds.
The event caused no damage or injuries, but it is impressive due to its sheer scale.
This megaflash highlights the extreme power of thunderstorms and the importance of weather monitoring.
Scientists use specialized satellites to detect these rare events. This record underscores the technological progress made in understanding atmospheric phenomena.
