THE BLoG OF a CLaSsmaTe

Today I am going to evaluate the Amanda’s Blog.
Well, I first I can say is the name of the blog: “I don’t know” I ask why? Maybe it is by the difficult for to learn English. It is a possibility.
She has eight post of ten. I think that lack motivation. I know the English have resulted difficult in special the listening, but the blog is a form for improve the language and “to save the marks”.
I like the post of the person that we admired, she chose to Charles Chaplin. I think that she put more enthusiasm in to writing this post, the images and the title made the difference. Besides we can note in the lecture and in the extension. Aside from the theme, it is interesting of writing. In the other topics there is few motivation, besides I think the texts aren`t completes.
I noted some problems of the grammar, the creation of the sentences or vocabulary. I saw problems with the sentences in past but I am not the person appropriate for to evaluate this part, I have mistakes too.
I don’t think that it is necessary put images in every post but I think is a form to show an interest in the blog. Although the texts are the most important, the images are important too. In my case, I think the image do the blog more presentable, but it is just an aesthetic thing.
The blog is good but obviously can be better.

C H I CHI L E LE

Hello!

Wow…Think in our country is to see a big and large strip of earth, from north until the south there are many different cultures, beliefs and traditions. Chile is a country very diverse, but that is not a reason for to be a country separated, on the contrary I think that Chile is close and also nationalist. There are many instances in the Chilean people can demonstrate your patriotic spirit. There are fundamental events as LA TELETÓN or now with The World Coup and the spirit or Chilean sold is more lighted than ever. All the people celebrated, include me, the game with Honduras. We won.
The spirit nationalist follow with life, sometimes the people think the culture already isn’t the most important or simply we forgot it. I think that is a mistake, is true the native people are less and a new music, for example, has come but the food and the celebrations follow equal.
I like be a Chilean I can’t leave the “Sopaipillas”, and not in a day so rainy how today, the traditional dances as “la cueca” or “saya” and “tinku”, dances of the North, I prefer this last.
The Chilean is patriotic, supportive and is comic but there is at least one Chilean in every country of the world. Did you have thought in that?
In advertising on TV about the earthquake I heard a phrase, I don`t remember it very well but said: “When one part of the Chile fell, the other part lifted it”. I think the solidarity is the most important of the Chilean people.

mY Photo

Hi everybody!
I have many favourites photographs of the remembers along all my life. Today want to say about this picture when I had five o six years. It was summer, days before the Christmas and New Year. My cousins and I, we had by first time a swimming pool. How you can see we enjoyed a lot. I don’t remember who took it, maybe my mum or some of my aunts.
The pictures of my infancy are all that, this is me and my cousins doing anything in anywhere.
The swimming pool lasted some years. There we played many games as “The TITANIC”. It was very funny. Later we had a swimming pool bigger, but we always remember this.
I like this picture, we were so happy, so little and we didn`t think in problems. We were just children. The girl of the center is my sister called “eFe”, to the side her I am littler. To my side is Manuel and the other side is Cotè and the other girl is Lidia. In the photo we were in the garden of my house, the house of my grandparents. How some of you know in Rosario. The garden is big and in that time the garden was greener that today and all the trees had fruits. Now the garden is some different and we too. We are not five or eight as it was in that time, now we are ten. My cousin David and my sister Catalina were born after. The family has not children. I think that hope our kids. But for that we need wait a bit more of time.
That is the story.

EDUCATION

Hi!
Today we visited the TED website and there we saw a presentation of Ken Robinson. I don’t remember very well but I had heard him.
I believe the ideas that Ken Robinson exposed is very interesting and I think that is totally truth.
He is a man very didactic and funny for exposed his thought. It is the main reason for the people follow him.
One of the things that He said was the young people start the studies now and finish in 2065. It is some comic but have some of real. Today a degree isn’t enough. We need a Master or a PhD for can get a job. I think that is a matter of the universities or of the government, I don’t know but is for win money and money.
Other thing very interesting is that today the schools have preoccupation just for the mathematics and language and the Art WHAT? The society and the institutions don’t teach music, art, and dance. The society don’t accept this how a career or the support of the life.
Ken Robinson believes that the schools kill the creativity. It is hard say it but is happening. He tell a story about a little girl that was drawing a god and the teacher said that nobody know how looks god. The girls answer her that will wait a minute. I like this example because shows the naivety, the ability and the most important the creativity that the teacher almost or not destroyed.
The art will not be to the end. The art should be in same conditions of the others courses.
