SESSION 3: WHERE ARE WE?
« The hexagon » as we call it, is separated from
the United Kingdom by the English Channel. We
can offer the tourists 3427km of beaches!
Area: 543 965 km2 ;3rd largest european country
after Russia and Ukraine, and 48th in the world.
We have natural borders with Italy (the Alps),
Switzerland (the Jura), Germany (The River
Rhine) and Spain (the Pyrénées). Luxemburg and
Belgium are also our neighbour countries.
Population: 64 102 000 inhabitants.
France is a country of mixed cultures due to its
numerous immigrants from everywhere in the
world and to the migration from its colonies
overseas. (Corsica, Saint Pierre- et- Miquelon,
French Guyana, The French West Indies
(Martinique, Guadeloupe, ) Mayotte, La Réunion, in
the Indian Ocean, French Polynesia (Tahiti), New
Caledonia, Wallis and Futuna).
Regions and « départements »
France is divided into 22
administrative regions.
Each region is composed of
several « départements ».
Each « département »
provides for local expenses.

•
On the 14th July 1789 the Parisians
assaulted « La Bastille », a state prison,
the symbol of despotism of the Ancient
Regime.
The high taxes imposed on them by Louis
XVI triggered off the riot.
The French flag has existed since the
French Revolution:
The National Day, 14 July,
commemorates the storming of « La
Bastille ».
« Blue and red » stand for the colours of
Paris, the capital of France.
« White » stands for monarchy.
The bust of « Marianne » is a symbolic
representation of the motherhood spirit:
healing, peaceful, nourishing and
protecting. She is present in Town Halls.
She also figures on coins and stamps…
Laetitia Casta, top model
and actress, was the model
for this « Marianne »
Riot on 14th July

We can combine the various theme parks according to the
themes around which is based their creation and
organization
►
Historical Theme Parks: based on historical themes like
the case of Camelot, in England.
►
Parks based on mythical or fantastic characters: Asterix in
Paris, Disneyland (USA, France, Japan);
►
Natural parks, which use the elements of nature like water:
SeaWorld, the fauna and flora: Cypress Gardens in
Orlando;

►
Parks concentrated in multimedia and new technologies:
Futuroscope, France;
►
Based on geography and past civilizations: Port Aventura in

What is a robot?
Machine: A machine is a tool which can do work that has
been designed and constructed.
A robot:
A robot is a machine with a memory and a program
capable of replacing humans to perform some work. Acting
on their physical environment to perform tasks and must
learn to adapt it to meet its mission.
Do you want to dance whit a robot
► Since
1990, the robots are increasing in most
human activities. So it has tried to make a
classification.
► Typologies proposed are numerous. Can be made
according to the chronology (1st, 2nd or 3rd
generation) depending on your level of expertise
(class 1 to class 6), depending on their areas of
application or...........
Do you want to dance whit a robot
►
Classification by field of application: (Classification of CNRS)
►
1 - The robots that explore places replacing the man,
because they are inaccessible, dangerous, or because the
task is unpleasant or impossible to make: The robot
firefighter, inspector of nuclear power plant, which washed
crystals, which monitors sewer .. .
►
At Futuroscope the robot Spirit, in the room before the
attraction Destination Cosmos. It is a copy of the two robot
explorers launched by NASA in 2003 to explore the planet
Mars, and in particular to detect the presence of water.
Do you want to dance whit a robot
►
2 - The robots that provide services to men: surgical robots that
provide greater accuracy and allow intervention at a distance, domestic
robots that do the works most tedious (robot vacuum cleaner, robot
garden), industrial robots, which are the most numerous ( automobile
assembly, manufacturing medicines, agro-food), the automotive sector
is globally the largest consumer of robots.
►
Also fall into this category the robots for entertainment and learning.
►
In Futuroscope the dog-robot, the KUKA robot dancer, the painter
robot.
►
The painter-robot, programmed by the laboratory of solid mechanics of
CNRS is capable in 5 minutes to draw the portrait of the visitor with
the same gestures of a human designer. Capture the image using a
digital camera, and makes the picture using an articulated mechanical
arm.
Do you want to dance whit a robot
►
3 - The robots directly inspired by the living world, human
or animal: the development of androids (in some time, a
robot of this kind could develop all the household chores)
and companion animals.
►
In Futuroscope, the dog-robot AIBO Three small-dog robot
pet authentic, in a scene from La Cité du Numérique play
every day with children and adults.
SESSION 4: THE CASTLES
► The
Loire with over 1,500 km in length is the

the Atlantic Ocean.
In the section that flows between the towns of

Kingdom using the most important data
Here you can obtain the necessary information: World
and British History for Kids
B) Events and dates in the History of London:
In 1940 the Blitz (the German
bombing) began. By the end of the
Second World War, 30,000 people
had been killed in London and many
of the city’s buildings lay in ruins.
During the 19th century
London’s population
exploded from one to six

In the future, London is going to
host the 2012 Olympic games
and some time around 2050
London will be celebrating its
2000th birthday!
King Henry VIII, looking for a son, married 6 times.
In 1530, after the Roman Catholic Church refused to

In 1066, William the Conqueror, who was
Norman, was crowned king in Westminster
Abbey and to impress the local people, William
the Conqueror built three castles in the city,

population reached
about one million.
The Romans invaded
England in 43 AD, and
created a settlement which

Mathematics: Practicing with Large Numbers
Distances between sites trip
In the United Kingdom, people use miles instead of
kilometres to measure large distances. There are 1.6
kilometres in a mile.
So, to convert from miles to kilometre you have to
multiply the number of miles by 1.6. So, 10 miles
would be 16 kilometres.
How many kilometres are in 25 miles? 50 miles? 136
miles?
To convert kilometres into miles we have to divide
the number of kilometres by 1.6 so, 16 kilometres
divided by 1.6 equals 10 miles.
How many miles are in 25 kilometres, 100
kilometres, and 255 kilometres?
