PRESENTATION
Based on CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) methodology, this book has been designed to give teachers access to a variety of
resources in each unit, so that they can pick and choose according to their needs.
• Theoretical content, with clear explanations, summaries, keywords, vocabulary in use, idiomatic expressions and language structures
(“Learn”, “Review” and “Express Yourself!” sections).
• Plenty of exercises to allow students to get to grips with the theory and practise what they have learned (“Comprehension activities” and “Extend your knowledge”). The activities are set out thus: tasks requiring passive language knowledge (reading and listening) come first, followed
by active knowledge activities (speaking, writing). This way, students gain confidence as they work through the unit.
• Practicals to do in the workshop and suggested and step-by-step projects (“Design and build”).
• Computer-guided practicals (“In the computer room”).
This is all done using information and communication technology (ICT) as the learning tool for the full range of topics covered in Technologies.
The book is based on CLIL methodology and adheres to the following guidelines:
• Student-centred learning and tasks to encourage students to get involved through familiar examples and situations that reflect real life.
• Flexible teaching to ensure that students have understood the content and context through listening and reading comprehension tasks.
• Interactive and autonomous learning through pair work and group activities that require students to negotiate meanings, discover things
for themselves and investigate.
• Task-based work in workshop practicals at the end of each topic (green section), at the end of the book (projects), and in all computing activities (pink section).
• Use of multiple resources, indicated by icons for easy reference. The meaning of each icon as shown in the table below.

Have you ever stopped to think about all the metal objects around you? They are not all the same and
we do not use them all for the same purpose, but they all have similar characteristics: they tend to
be cold to the touch, they generally shine and most of them rust when they come into contact with
moisture. In this unit, we will look at the special characteristics of metals that allow us to differentiate
between them. We will also learn how to work with them in the workshop.

3.
Ê Look for different objects in the workshop: plastic boxes, strips of wood, bottle caps, pieces of material, rubber,
aluminium foil, etc. Study them closely and answer the following questions in your notebook:
• Which ones are colder?
• Which ones are heavier?
• When you try to cut them, which ones are harder to cut? What happens when you try to bend them?
• Which ones can stretch?
Most likely, the ones you thought were colder, heavier and harder to shape (the ones that were more difficult to
work with) are metals.
Now take a magnet and try to attract the objects you think are metals. Does the magnet attract all of the metals?
4.
Ê With a partner, find two metal tools and a piece of cord about 1 metre long in the
workshop. Tie one of the tools to the middle of the cord as shown in the photograph. While you
hold the cord, your partner has to use the other tool to hit the one tied to the cord. Listen to the
sound it makes. What do you notice?
As you can see, metals are excellent conductors of sound.
5.
6.
Ê Open exercise Unit04 0A Metals in Unit 4 of the CD and complete the exercise on types of metals.
Ê Do an online search for information on how metals are recycled. Which container do we need to put them in
for recycling? Do you know what percentage of metals can be recycled? Save the information you find in a text document
with the name Unit04_0B_namesurname.

“Learn”
This section is marked in blue. It contains theoretical aspects of the topic,
presented clearly and concisely.

Learn
Metallic materials have been around since ancient times.
For enquiring minds!
Key concepts and definitions are displayed inside a pink box for easy reference.
At the end of each page or double spread, students will find a box with
exercises to check that they have understood the concepts explained in
this section. These exercises are marked with one, two or three stars, according to their difficulty; some also have listening, speaking or writing
icons. Generally every two pages or so, there is a keywords box containing important terms and their definitions (the listening activity with
these words can be found on the virtual CD).
An alloy is a mixture of two or more metals, or
of a metal and non-metallic components (phosphorus, carbon, silicon, etc.).
The product we obtain from the mixture may
have a property that the original components
did not have. This makes alloys very useful.
The first alloy created by humans was bronze
(copper and tin), which is harder and stronger
than its components.
Pause and reflect!
Do not confuse hardness with toughness. Diamond is a very hard mineral, because it cannot
be scratched. However, it is not very tough because we can grind it easily. Look at the picture
below: the steel hammer (a very tough, but softer material) smashes the diamond (very hard,
but brittle) into pieces.

• They are very good conductors of electric current, so they have lots of applications in electricity and electronics.
They are not usually used in their pure state. Instead, they are alloyed with other
metals or non-metallic elements (like carbon). The earth’s crust contains minerals,
and metals are a type of these minerals. To obtain them, we need to mine them. The
part of the mineral that we use to obtain metal is called ore. The rest of the mineral
is called gangue.
• Some have a magnetic behaviour and can attract other metals.
Other properties
Metallurgy is the name given to the techniques used to obtain metals from the mineral ore and process them.
• Many rust easily.
„Main properties of metals
• They are solid at room temperature (except for mercury).
There are many types of metals, but they all have some common properties:
• They are heavy and dense.
Mechanical properties
These properties tell us how metals behave when external loads are applied to
them.
• They are hard: they do not scratch and cannot be easily pierced.
• Some are malleable: we can press the metal into thin sheets and it will not
break. For example, aluminium.
5
Electrical and magnetic properties
These properties tell us how metals behave with electricity and magnetism.
Rusted iron. Can you see the difference? The
metal plates in the foreground are not completely rusted but the sections behind them are.
• They are sound conductors.
„Stock forms of metal
Metals for industrial use are usually sold as:
• Plates of different thicknesses (the thinner ones are called sheets).
• Sections: lengths of metal whose section is shaped like a U, square, circle, triangle, etc.
• Ingots: blocks obtained by pouring liquid metal into a mould.
„Classifying metals
• Some are ductile: we can stretch the metal into wires (like the strands we
find in cables). For example, copper.
• They are tough: they are very resistant to breaking when they are hit (the
opposite of tough is brittle).
Thermal properties
These properties tell us how metals behave when heated.
• They are very good conductors of heat. Metals are used in a lot of cookware
where it is important to transmit heat to cook the food.
• They expand when the temperature rises and contract when it falls.
• Some metals can easily be soldered to other metals or to parts of the same
metal.
The most widely used metal today is iron. This is because it is so common and easily
obtained. Metals that contain mainly iron are called ferrous metals. Metals that do
not have iron in their composition are called non-ferrous metals.

4.
ÊÊ Get into small groups and find any two metal objects in the part

5.
ÊÊ Briefly explain the difference between ferrous and non-ferrous
metals. Give an example of each group.
