UNO Internacional has been developed by a multidisciplinary team of 50 educational
experts from 12 countries in Latin America (Mexico, Brazil, Spain, Argentina,
Colombia, Chile, Guatemala, Peru and Venezuela, among others).
Grupo Santillana has been working on the project for 10 years, researching,
piloting, designing, exploring, and listening to thousands of students, teachers
and directors throughout the region.
The result is UNOi, a new and completely innovative educational
proposal for schools, built around 21th Century parameters and oriented
towards a shared vision for leadership, new practices, quality, and profound
improvement… in short, for a better education.

Our World
and Beyond
LgîiZcWnGdWZgid:he^cZaaV
E]didHZaZXi^dcWnBc^XV9Za\VYdYZEVigjXXd
You might think that Earth and the Sun are the most important bodies
in the universe. But they are only a small part of it. Our solar system and
the stars that you see at night are part of a galaxy called The Milky Way.
Very advanced satellites and telescopes help scientists see and study the
universe. Scientists think there are billions of galaxies in the universe. They
are discovering more about them every day. For example, scientists believe
that galaxies are moving farther apart. This means that the universe may
actually be getting bigger.
Jcî*ÇI]ZJc^kZghZ &*

Our Solar System and Gravity
Our Sun is the center of our solar system. It is actually a star. Earth and the
other planets revolve around the Sun in separate paths called orbits. Earth’s
orbit is shaped like an oval. It is about 585 million miles long. It makes a
complete revolution around the Sun every 365¼ days, or one year.
The force that keeps Earth in an orbit around the Sun is called gravity. The
Sun’s gravitational pull on Earth keeps it revolving in its orbit.
&+ AZii^c\Di]Zgh@cdl

GZVY^c\
Earth also has a gravitational force. This force keeps the Moon in an orbit
around Earth. It also makes the oceans on Earth bulge. The Moon tries to pull
at anything on Earth to bring it closer. Earth holds onto everything except
water. The pulling of the gravitational forces causes the world’s oceans to rise
and fall. This creates the ocean tides.
Gravity holds you down on Earth. You cannot see gravity, but you can feel
its effects every day. If you jump up, you always come back down. When you
throw a ball straight up into the air, it will come back down to you.
Jcî*ÇI]ZJc^kZghZ &,

Day, Night, and the Seasons
As Earth revolves around the Sun, it also rotates, or spins around, an
imaginary line called an axis. This rotation causes day and night. During the
rotation, one side of the Earth faces the Sun. This side is in daytime. The other
side facing away from the Sun is in nighttime. Each rotation of Earth takes
twenty-four hours, or one day.
The seasons of the year are caused by the tilt of the Earth’s axis. They are
also caused by Earth’s revolution around the Sun. Different parts of Earth
receive more direct sunlight than others at different times of
the year.
&- AZii^c\Di]Zgh@cdl

GZVY^c\
When the Northern Hemisphere of Earth tilts toward the Sun, this area
enjoys the warm days of summer. The Sun’s rays are stronger in summer. The
hours of daylight are longer. When the Northern Hemisphere of Earth tilts away
from the Sun, the cold days of winter arrive. The Sun’s rays are weaker. There
are fewer minutes of daylight. Some places have only a few hours of daylight in
the winter.
In between the summer months and the winter months come the seasons of
spring and fall. In spring, Earth is drawing closer to the Sun. In fall, it is moving
farther away.
Jcî*ÇI]ZJc^kZghZ &.

The Changing Moon
Have you ever noticed that the Moon seems to change shape? One night,
it may look like a full circle. Another night, it seems to be a thin crescent.
Sometimes it may look like a half circle. However, the Moon does not actually
change shape. It looks different as its position in relation to the Sun and Earth
changes. The Moon does not make its own light. It reflects light from the Sun.
As Earth and the Moon move in their orbits, the amount of light on the Moon
varies.
The changing views of the Moon are called phases. When the side of the
Moon facing Earth is completely in sunlight, you see a full moon. Some nights,
you do not see the Moon in the sky at all, even when the sky is cloudless. This
happens when the side of the Moon facing Earth is not lit by the Sun. This
phase is called the new moon. In between the full moon and the new moon are
other phases. It takes about twenty-nine days for the Moon to complete its orbit
around Earth. A full moon usually occurs only once a month.
'% AZii^c\Di]Zgh@cdl

Our Neighbors
GZVY^c\
Earth is not the only planet in our solar system. There are seven
other planets and some dwarf planets that orbit the Sun. Many
of these planets have moons that orbit them, too. Smaller objects
also orbit the Sun. They are called asteroids and comets. Asteroids
are pieces of rock. Thousands of asteroids are located between
the planets Mars and Jupiter. This area is called the asteroid belt.
Comets are fuzzy clouds made of ice, rock, and dust. They look like
streaks of light in the night sky. You can sometimes spot a comet
because it has a bright tail of light. The tail of a comet always
points away from the Sun.
Billions of stars are in the galaxy. These stars are the twinkling
lights you see in the sky at night. They are actually huge balls of
very hot gas, like our Sun. However, they are extremely far away.
Stars give off light that travels really fast. The light from the Sun
takes about eight minutes to reach Earth. Light from the nearest
star takes about four years to reach the Earth! Because our Sun is
much closer than other stars, it looks large and bright. The other
stars look small and faint.
Jcî*ÇI]ZJc^kZghZ '&

Stories in the Stars
Some stars look like they are grouped together to form patterns or pictures.
These are called constellations. People in ancient times named the patterns
after gods or heroes from myths and stories. Sometimes they were named after
animals. Ursa Major, or the Great Bear, is a constellation. One star grouping
within the Great Bear is the Big Dipper. It looks like a small pot with a long
handle. Ursa Minor, or the Little Bear, has the Little Dipper. It begins at the
North Star, also called Polaris. Throughout the ages, sailors have used the stars
and constellations to help them find their way on the seas.
'' AZii^c\Di]Zgh@cdl

You may have noticed
GZVY^c\
that stars are not always
in the same part of the
sky. They seem to move
around during the year.
However, it is Earth that
moves and not the stars.
An astronomer named
Nicolaus Copernicus
proposed this idea in
the sixteenth century.
Before that time, people
thought that the Sun
and the stars moved
around Earth.
The next time you
look up at the night sky,
think about everything
that is happening out in
space. You will realize
that the universe is a
fascinating place!

Small Events, Big Effects
AVc\jV\Z
Once upon a time, a girl lived in a small village in
Africa. She liked to catch butterflies and keep them
in jars. One day, she decided to set a butterfly free.
She went outside and opened the jar, and soon the
butterfly flew out. The girl went back into her house
with her empty jar.
The butterfly flapped its wings as it flew up to a tree. It
landed on the branch of the tree.The flapping of the wings created a small
breeze that blew some leaves on the ground. The leaves on the ground blew
to the edge of a cliff and fell over the edge. They created a small gust of wind
that pushed the air and the leaves up into the sky, making a bigger gust of
wind.
The big gust of wind pushed the air farther up in the sky. It became stronger
as it rose. Some small breezes joined the gust of wind. Together they became
a strong wind that blew across the Atlantic Ocean. It picked up some water
from the ocean and blew even harder. The wind found a big storm and picked
up even more water. Together they created an enormous storm that soon
became a hurricane. When it reached land, the hurricane caused a great deal
of damage to homes along the coast.
Moral: Small events can have big effects.

Orion the Hunter

Orion the Hunter was the son of Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea. His
mother was Euryale, a princess. Orion hunted with his two favorite dogs, Canis
Major and Canis Minor. Artemis, the goddess of the hunt, admired Orion very
much. Orion boasted to her that he was the greatest hunter ever.
“I could kill all of the animals on Earth,” Orion said to Artemis.
Demeter, the Earth goddess, heard what Orion said. She became very angry.
“Orion thinks he is the greatest hunter on Earth,” said Demeter. “He thinks he
can kill all my animals. I will stop him.”
She sent a scorpion, a small creature with a
deadly sting, to sting Orion. Orion could not
escape the scorpion, and it stung him. When
Orion died, Artemis was so sad that she placed
him in the sky with his two dogs. That way, she
could see him every night. She made Orion easy
to find by marking his belt with three bright
stars in a straight line.
Orion and the scorpion were given honored
places in the sky. They were placed at opposite ends, so that they would never
engage in battle again.

&# Who is this story about?
'# How is Orion like any other human being?
(# What natural event does this story explain?

Dialogue
A Read the text.
In a story, the words a character speaks out loud are called dialogue. These
words have quotation marks (“ ”) around them. Words that identify the speaker
are placed before, after, or in the middle of the dialogue. A comma may be
needed to separate the dialogue from these words. When a different character
begins speaking, a writer begins a new paragraph.
Notice the placement of the quotation marks, commas, and speaking words in
the following dialogue:
“I could kill all of the animals on Earth,” Orion boasted to Artemis.
Artemis admired Orion very much. She said, “You are a brave hunter.”
Demeter became very angry. “Orion thinks he is the greatest hunter on Earth,”
Lgî^c\

Imagery
In songs, as in poetry, authors use imagery. Imagery is the use of words in

a description that appeal to the reader’s senses in order to create pictures, or
images, in the reader’s mind of the thing described.
Example: Flaming flowers that brightly blaze.
Literally, the example says that the flowers are on fire, since both flaming and
blaze mean on fire. However, the author of the song Vincent uses flaming and
blaze as imagery to communicate the idea that the flowers are very bright.
A Read the following phrases that contain underlined imagery. In the space
under each phrase, write what you think each image means.

Contrast and Movement
A Read the text.
Vincent van Gogh was born in 1853 in the

Netherlands. The Starry Night is one of his most
famous paintings. Some parts of this painting
are darker than others. The lightness or darkness
of a color is its value. You can change the value
of a color by adding black or white. If you add
black, you get a shade of that color. For example, adding black to the color blue
produces navy blue. If you add white, you get a tint of that color. Adding white
to the color blue produces light blue.
The differences in color value in this painting give a feeling of movement.
The swirls and curved lines in the sky also show movement. The contrast of the
bright stars with the dark areas and swirls makes the sky appear to be moving.
B Create a picture of how the night sky looks to you.

&# Use your pencil to make a sketch of the night sky on your paper. Decide
where to add curved or swirled lines to make the stars appear to be
moving. Include your town or city below the night sky.
'# Outline your drawing with crayons. Hjeea^Zh
