blogging experience.

I really like the blogging experience and I must to say that this was my first time doing something like this.
Thanks to this written communication I had been able to learn and know more about my classmates. Furthermore thanks to this I can communicate what I want to say or what I think about a specific topic, such as a complicated topic like education or Chilean behavior to one that is easier like your favourite movie or cartoon.
What I really like about this, is that you can make comments about what your classmates said and all the way around too. I find out that some of my classmates think the same as me in some topics, such as when we had had to write about education. I discovered that many of my classmates like the same movie as me or the same song.
I think that if it would not be for the blog I could not be able to find out all this things, because I do not talk with all my classmates, but trough the blog I could read what all those who I do not really know, feel and think.
I must to say that sometimes it was really hard for me to write the blog, because one thing that it is really complicated for me is witting. I do not why but I misplace or untidy the writing organization, I mean I used period or commas were I do not have to do it or I do not put it. For this reason I think that sometimes what I wanted to say it was not understood, because the main idea of my post was not clear.
The positive side of this is that how I had to do a post weekly I had had the chance to improve (a little) my writing.
To zip up this, I must to say that follow the blog and sharing my thoughts, believes and experiences it has been a great experience.

my favourite anime character!!

mm.. it is so hard for Me to choose just one XP

Simon why you do this to me?, make me choose just one (joking).

well first of all i love Japanese animation and all the characters!!!

From all the anime girls, i think the one i like the most is emy, sailor mercury from sailor moon.

i recall that when i was little i used to played with my classmates and cousin to be sailor scouts, and i always performance as sailor mercury. also once i got the same haircut as her.

i like emy or amy because she is honest, friendly, she is always protecting her beloved ones and really smart.

when i was little i tried to imitate her.

that is all for today.

see you tomorrow

kiss and hugs

what time is it? it is time to catch up with the blogathon!! XD

blogathon:

blog 10: learning English

mmm... first of all i decided to study English, because i do really like languages.

nowadays English language is a really important subject, because this language has the characteristic of being universal.

what aspect of learning English do i find most difficult?

for me it is really hard to write correctly, because i am not very organized, sometimes i miss the period and comas. Also sometimes i had some many ideas about the topic that i put it all together or i tend to explain the idea and then i repeat all over again.

what am i doing to improve this?

i try to write in the blog more often. pay attention about what i wrote and read about it.

can you give me an advise to improve this?

blog 11: A place you like to visit in Chile

i think our country is really beautiful, because if we think about it we have many touristic and gorgeous landscape.

it is a shame that we do not know about all those places, because it is really common that we choose to travel abroad instead of know our country.

what place i would like to visit?

i would like to do a tour for all the country, from the I to the XV region, go to all the places and learn about the different traditions from all the region. try all the typical dishes and share with the people.

blog 12: my house

my house is one of the kind.

my house is next to my grandparent's house, is not the same house but the two houses are in the same place.

my house is located near the Town centre.

we have 2 rooms (my parents room and i share my room with my sister), 1 bathroom , living, dining room and a large garden.

my bedroom is bigger than my parent's bedroom, i think it is because my sister and i share the room, but we have our own spaces in it.

if you want to know more you must to come to my house, in Melipilla XD

blog 13: lucky number

i had never think about this topic.

I do not know which is my lucky number, but when i have to choose a number for a play or bingo i always choose 18, i think it is because i was born on the 18 th.

i am not a superstitious person, but i have to admit that everyday i read my horoscope, to know what is suppose to happen to Libras people, but i do not think that all what is written is real, because sometimes nothing happens.

think that if you think positive you will have lucky, because positive thought attract positive things.

what do you think about it? share with me your opinion.

blog 14: household chores

i do not bother to do some household chores to help to my mother, but one thing i really hate to do is to vacuumed, i do not know why,but i do really hate it.

a long time ago my sister and i make a deal about the household chores . in special when we have to clean our bedroom.

i would be the one who has to clean the furniture of our bedroom and wash the dishes, and she would be the one who has to vacuumed the carpet of our bedroom and the living room.

what do you hate about household chores?

come on, share with me what you think about it?

see you later

essay draft

MoTiVaTiOn!

It is a simple word that in the practice of theaching has a huge meaning. how important is motivate and help our students is something that we already know,because three years ago we were students and we now how important were those teachers who encourage us to do our best.

One of the major responsibilities that a teacher has is to assure that their students do not lose the sparkle of their eyes and the friendly smile from their face, well this is about what i want to talk about in my reflective essay.

how to motivate somebody else it is a hard work, because not all the people has the patience and the strength to fight against those who are not interested in anything.

it is for that reason that nowadays we have many teacher, here in Chile and around the world, who do not even care what their students are doing in the classroom, the only thing they want it is go trough the material and then go home, but what we really need is dedicated teachers who has the aims to help their student to achieve their goals, to help them to develop their critical thinking.

A teacher have to support their student ideas and don let them shut up their voice.

"motivation" is something we need, to make our student interested in the subject, but more important it is to make them interested to learn about everything.

what i would try in the future.... i do not have it clear, now, but the only think i know is that i would try to share with them something that really like, that is ENGLISH and try to makes them interested in the topic and love it as i do.

well this how is going to be.

well it will be more logical, because right now is a bunch of ideas and thoughts

when i watched the video in class was like OMG!! he talk so fast!!!, but that does not mean that i could not understand him.

I like how easy he link the topic with life, i mean how he explain it with typical situations and jokes, such as family anecdotes.

i think he is a pretty good orator.

mmm... About what he was talking, i agree with him in some points. Like when he said that the education is a common topic of discussion for all of us, and it is really important because it makes the future that we can achieve. in fact this is true, all of us feel with the right to talk about this topic, but no one do something to make it better.

I think education is a key that can open many doors, such as success and happiness. a person who is educated is able to get whatever she/he want.

When he talk about how the school are killing creativity, i totally agree with that, because some school do not let the kids to express their ideas or opinion.

I think that develop the imagination and creativity helps the kid, because he would be able to handle with the life's difficulties, i mean he would be able to think in how to resolve a problem without feeling anxious or stressed. Also this would help them to try to do, create new things to develop the knowledge that we have now and to have a better world for all of us.

We should give more value to the subject that develop this, such as art, dance etc... because this help people to be more open-minded and be able to create and achieve new things.

• About Chilean school, we should recognize that we are really narrow-minded and we do not accept new things, if somebody wants to study art, drama or dance we have prejudice about them, we call them lazies, gays etc...
• If somebody thinks different as us, we call them crazy or problematic
• Some schools do not let the kids to develop the imagination and creativity, because they do not want or care to listen what they want to say and suggest.

it is like the example that one teacher gave us when we were in university's first grade.

ex: a teacher do not let a kid to paint her whale with a pink pencil, because all the whale are blue. but what is the problem if she want to do it in that color, if she image that whale in her mind with that color, why do not let her express?, what is wrong with that?

what do you think about it?

what are you going to do as a future teacher, help them to develop their creativity or not?

think about it, and share with me your comments

i would be eager to read it!! XD

reading

The truth is that i do not have any reading tactics.
When is a text from the university i use to underline the main ideas, but when is not i do not.
My favorites books are about romantic stories, science fiction, magic, mystery, etc.
i can not chose one favorite book, because there are so many that I like. Such as: Harry potter (all of them), mujeres de los ojos grandes, paradise, etc.
i think that reading is a good way to learn, about everything. Also is a mode to escape of the reality and let you image new world.
