Celebrating the International Year of Small Islands Developing States


This year UN celebrate the International Year of Small Islands Developing States (SIDS). It was at the 1992 Earth Summit that the international community recognized the special vulnerabilities of SIDS – small size, isolation, exposure to disasters, to external shocks and to climate change impacts.



IES Nuestra Señora de la Victoria decided to to work on this issue from 7th to 11th April and this is the result.

Lola Galán, Carmen García and their students from 4º B made beautiful cardboard islands with some information about islands.





Mavi Carrión and her students from 3º A made some posters about SIDS and the environment.









My 2º A students looked for information about the Pacific Islands and showed it on posters.

















In 2º Bachillerato C, we watched some videos. First, this one
to learn about SIDS.




Then, an interesting documentary about Tuvalu, the sinking island.
