TE QUIEROO!!!!!!!

Jackson

It is kind of difficult to decide which is my favorite Jackson's song because there are a lot of songs that are really great. However, I have to choose just one and the winner is..... beat it!!!

This song is really good, I love the rhytnm and the lyric too, and also when I listen to this song I cannot resist the temptation to dance.

I used to sing beat it with my dad when I was seventy, I still remember!
It was so fun and since then I like Michael Jackson.

Also I think Michael Jackson was a great dancer and I wish I could dance like him!!

Inversion

The effects are becoming apparent only now.
He had never seen anything so beautiful before.
Exhibits must not be touched on any account.
You rarely find a coin of this age in such a good condition.


2. Very Rarely do you come across anyone nowadays who hasn't been abroad.
3. Only by living in a country where the language is spoken, can you really learn it. 4. Under no circuntances should tourists be allowed to visit the Antartic.
5. Not until you've try Frech cuisine, will you know what good food is.
6. Not only did I hate visiting museums as a child, but I also can't stand going into them.
7. Only recently have I started going on holiday without my parents.
8. Never again will I back to that place I went to last year on holiday.

Not only was the hotel expensive, but also the service was terrible.
Only when I saw the soup I noticed there was a flying floating.
Never again I will make a reservation in this hotel.

Thanks to Language V, I knew the world of blogging. I had heard about blogs but I never get interested in, and also I didn’t know how to create an account or what should I write in a blog.

I still remember when I wrote my first post, it was so difficult because I knew that everybody could read it and because I had never written in a blog before.

To write in the blog helped me a lot to improve my writing skills and to recognize my grammar mistakes. Also I think I could develop my creativity, because in some posts we decided what to write and we could add wherever we wanted, such as pictures.

The best part of blogging was to read my classmates' posts and leave comments, because some of the posts were jolly interesting. Also I laughed a lot with Simon's comments because were very funny.

I feel that through the blog I could knew my classmates a little bit more because we always have to write our personal opinion. For example, I realize that I typed the same words in the Google search box as Pamela, because many time we chose the same picture! That was so funny!!

Also thanks to the blog I could realize that Marta is not my friend because she was always writing bad comments in my blog and she threatened to kill me too!!!

I think to write in the blog was a good experience and I really like it. Also the time I spend in the computer lab was enjoyable and relaxing.

Motivation

As future teachers we should know the importance of motivation, that's why I chose the article related to this topic.

I think the article is very interesting because it gives us some ideas to motivate our future students and also to know why some students are not motivated and interested in learning.

Thanks to the article I could realize that when a teacher is preparing a class, he or she should think not only in the motivated students, but also in weaks students, because they are part of the class as well and they get frustrated easily when they cannot do an activity.

Most of the teachers plan a lesson thinking just in the group of motivated students, because they think that weak students are not interested in learning. As future teachers we shoud know that weak students try to pretend they aren't interested, so they won't be called losers if they don't learn a content.

Also the article help teachers to know how important is feedback for students and that feedback is a double-edged sword because if teachers aren't carefull in the way they give a feedback, students can make classifications such as who are the clever students and the not clever ones.

I think motivation is an interesting topic and I wanted to know some ideas to motivate students. The article helped me a lot because it gave me good tips that are easy to apply in a classroom.

Creativity

I think the conference given by Ken Robinson was very interesting because Creativity is an important tool we should develop at school.

Unfortunately, subjects lile arts or music are considered less important than maths or language. Also schools don't let students to develop their creativity, even in arts, because they always have to follow a pattern.

When I was at school I never followed the patterns and I always got bad grades, so school doesn't help students to develop their creativity because they just have to do what the teacher said.

Nowadays most of the employers hope to have creative workers, so school should help students to develop this tool to be successful in their working future.

I consider that I'm creative but that's thanks to my father because I used to paint with him when I was a child. But I wish I could have developed my creativity at school too, so now I could be more creative.

Reading

I love reading and on vacation I always read a new book. In my summer vacations I read "Historia de una gaviota y del gato que le enseñó a volar" written by Luis Sepulveda, a Chilean writer. This story is very short but really interesting and I do recommend that you read this book.

Also I like reading books written by Shakespeare, my favorite writer. I love the book Macbeth and Otelo too! those books are great but kind of difficult to understand because the translation is in spanish but from Spain.

I think in my winter vacations I will read "Cuentos de Eva Luna" by Isabel Allende, because my mother read this book months ago and she told me that it is really good, so I will read it!!
