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.

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!
