Environment


Hello, I really like this topic but I think that the people don’t practice usually. All of us talk about the importance that care the environment, but just a few really do something, like recycling or plants trees, or the most important, leave the car in home and use the public transport. Principally because there’s not public policy about the theme, so people don’t inform about the forms to participate.
Personally, I don’t do many things, I recycle in the place that is possible, but in my house don’t do. But I always put the trash in the right place, I never leave in the floor or another places where is not appropriated.
I don’t use a bicycle because I don’t have but I try to walk when I can, and I try that my father don’t use the car so much, when he can walk.
If don’t support eco-organizations, is for I don’t have the money to do that but I’m agree with the thing that they do.
I always try that the people that is near me take conscience about take care the environment and about the importance of this problem, because in a few years our world could be destroyed for our fault, because we don’t have good practice whit the environment and just live without caring about the others.
In our city the care the environment is not a theme, people don’t do many things because is all very quick and nobody have time for think in the people who live around us.

Vacations!


Hello, I´m going to write about vacations. This precious moment when we can relax and disconnect to the work and all the stuff that stress in the year, when we can go to a beautiful place and do things that like us. This is very important because vacations give us energies to work.
This summer I will go to the south of Chile, I hope visit Chiloé, Puerto Montt, Frutillar, Valdivia and another places that I think that are very beautiful, the best of this trip is that I will go with all my family, my father, my mother and my sister. My dad will be responsible for carrying us because we don´t have drive license. I know that will be a good experience. Besides I have a great camera to take many photography to all places that I go to visit and this very important to me because I love pictures of sceneries.
I plan to go many places and taste many food, and drinks beer in Valdivia, of course.
The second part of my vacations will be travel with my boyfriend and friends, I think we will go to a beach but we don’t have a house so we going to camp no matter the place, we can enjoy together in any place.
Regards!

Removing bad teachers – panel verdict


This articule that I selected is about a new policy to dismiss bad teachers. In this column write four experts in education, which are: Katharine Birbalsingh, a former deputy headteacher; Alice Robinson, president of the Association of Teachers and Lecturers; Stephen Twigg is Labour's shadow education secretary and Sally Llewellyn, who is mother of four children.
Katharine explains that the young teachers lack of motivation because they have no respect for the profession. The old teachers sometimes are not good but they are still working, not like doctors or lawyers. Besides union power defense teachers and prevents that they are dismiss.
Alice reference to the problem of bad teacher is for the system , if a teacher works much time in a grade and it is good, change it's a bad idea because he needs time to adapt to this new level.
Stephen says that policies have been implemented, however is not enough, it should be implemented new methods for the evaluation of the teachers.
And Sally, the mother of four kids, thinks that is necesary for the kids that the school have good teachers, because she says that poor teachers damage the children's learning.
I really like this articule, is very intresting. The link is: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/jan/13/removing-bad-teachers-panel-verdict?INTCMP=SRCH

Movies


Hi! I’m going to write about a topic that I like so much, the movies. I think that the movies can help people to know about another culture and different realities. Are many type of films, like to education or just for entertainment. I have seen many education films, I thinks very useful, but my favorite type of movies are scary movies and romantic comedies, and several other types, but the movies that I don’t like is the Disney films, I don’t like the princess and this type of stuff. I like feel fear with the suspense and see blood and other things like that.
I don’t have a favorite actor or director because many times the lesser-known are very good in this job.
The last movie that I saw was “The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn” is a very entertaining film, and I saw the series when I was a kid so when I saw this movie was like back to my childhood and I really liked.
See ya!

The country that I want to visit


Hello! Well, today I’m going to write about the country that I want to visit, and is it France. I always think that should be a very beautiful place, with the Eiffel Tower and Arch of Triumph. I know the Marseillaise, I learn when I was in school, in French class. I hope that sometime I can visit Europe and watch all the historical sites.
I don’t know if I like to live there because I like my country and my culture, maybe study there would be a great experience, and go to the vacation of course.
Another country that I want to visit is Italy, for the same, the culture. I want to see the Pisa Tower and the Roman Coliseum , maybe the Vatican too. The architecture is very interesting for the antique. But the most I like of Italy is the gastronomy because I love pizza and pasta. I hope visit this mythical country soon.
See ya!

Summer in classes


Hello! In this new post I write about this summer term, is very weird to have classes in summer, but the good thing is that this term is shorter than a regular one; there are only 6 weeks before vacations!
I’m taking 10 subjects because is my final term, so I have to take them now to finish my career. I am very stressed for that, I have to approve all my subjects.
The worst of having classes by this date is to pass Christmas studying. I want to be celebrating, but I am doing homework, which is sad, mainly when my family is celebrating and I can’t.
I hope that the time pass fast so I can go to the beach and relax for the next year.
See you!

My favorite place

Hello dear classmates and teacher! I hope that you are good in this sunny day.
Well, I like too much and I know very well Santiago, is definitlly my favorite city. I'm going to write about all the place that a love visite. In first places the Metropolitan Park in the San Cristobal’s hill, is a very beautiful place to go for walk and enjoy the nature, but also you go to see animals in the Zoo, the only problem is that not smell so good, but it’s not really important. In the same park you can find the Japanese Garden, is a very small but nice place, are very relaxing because have a lagoon whit a wheel. Every time that I can I go to this park to feel in contact with nature. The first time that I go to the Park I was very small so I don't remember too much. But now I go frequently to walk, cycling and do barbecues, but also to see the animals.

Another place is the Santa Lucía’s hill, is smaller but has much history that makes very interesting. And in front of this hill you can find a place where you can shop many thinks of all types, principally object for the tourist for that remember Chile, like t-shirts, hats and ornaments.

For change the types of places I also like museums, for learn about the history older I go to Museum Historic National, is a very interesting place.
But for eat something typical, you can eat ‘empanadas’. I know a place that makes the best ‘empanadas’ in my opinion. It call “El Quijote”, is located in San Bernardo, a town at south of Santiago it’s not near but you can’t visit Santiago and not taste this ‘empanadas’.

Like you will notice, I love my city! So everywhere can be my favorite place.
I see you next class!
