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!

E-Car présentation

E-Car Présentation
Dear Brigitte and Isaac.
Hello, i going to présent the e-car in France. This car is so small:

E-Cars
Do you think if this car are dangerous ?In America do you have this car ?
Les Bus Jaunes:
Bonjour Opale
Sont-ils utilisés que pour les personnes scolarisés ? Est-il banale de le prendre ? Combien de bus jaune se rende a l'école ? Fait moi un film et interview le conducteur. Roule-t-il la nuit ? Y'a-t-il beaucoup de personne qui prenne ce bus ? Nous n'avons pas de bus scolaire mais beaucoup de personnes viens en scooter ,voiture sans permis , a pied ou en vélo et certain se font amener par leur parent
Merci de me répondre
Au revoir Opale
THE FRENCH E-CAr : Citroën Ami
Dear Aneele and Lorelai,
Today, I'm going to present you guys a french e-car called Citroën Ami. This car is very famous around teenagers and mostly students. That is because, it's pretty affordable (the price can go from 9,504.04 $ to 11592.85 $) and also as you don't need a driving license to drive this e-car.Now, I'm going to describe this car real quick. In the inside, you can see only two seats, one steerring wheel and a horn. Then, you should know the outisde of this Citroën car is mainly made of plastic. There are two identical doors with windows as well as two rear view mirrors on both sides. The four wheels are also identical. One of the particularity of this car is that there is no hood at the front and no trunk at the back.
You can have this car in three different colors : grey, black or blue. However, if you pay an extra 464.18 $, you can have it in red, white and green
Now let's talk about this car a little more scientifically. The Citroën Ami e-car can reach a top speed of 28 miles per hour and it has an autonomy around 47 miles. As this car is elecric, you need to charge it : for this specific car, you need 4 hours to get it fully charged. Also, this battery has an energy of 18 millions joules per hour.
I have some questions for you !
Have you ever seen such a car in the US ?
If you ever come in France, would you like to have one ?
What is your opinion about this e- car ?

Hello Fromage
I looked at your vending machine and I did some research on one of your products. It’s the Reese’s biscuit.
From a simple scientific point of view, this biscuit is high in sugar and fat, which means it gives quick energy but has low nutritional value. Foods like this can be enjoyable, but eating them often may contribute to weight gain and is not ideal for a healthy diet.Because of this, I would advise you not to include it if you want healthier options in your machine. But if the goal is to offer a tasty treat that people like, it can still work well.

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
Hello Camila and Gracie,
I have looked at your vending machine. I have some research on onr porduct. It is the Kit Kat. I advise you to dont eat a lot of it cause there is a lot of sugar, vegetable fats ( palm, palm kernel shea ) and a lot of butter... I advise you not to buy it because it encourages the production palm oil so encourages the deforestation of the Amasonia.
bye Cloé

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
Manon and Diego
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
LEO AND OIHAN
What is a degree?
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.
