Blogging experience!

Hi everyone!
I just want to share with you a little about my first blog experience and why I’m interested in blogging .
I've been blogging for about three months. On this blog I share whatever information, ideas, interviews and funny things about me.

When I started my blog, I thought that it would be so difficult to write brief or long entries with a good use of English words in order to be clearly understood and to gain the attention of my friends. Since I’m not a creative writer, I make my blog posts as long as possible with sweet meaning about a topic uploading photos, videos, drawings and so on. That`s not bad for a new blogger right ?

My unique experience in terms of interaction was great. Personally, I think that language V blogging experience highly motivated my classmates to read more and share opinions to each other by interacting with posts and replied back some comments.

In my opinion, you must read other blogs if you wanted to become a true blogger. Gladly, I enjoyed making comments and being interested in others popular blogs. As a Blogger I had the opportunity to improve my writing skills, getting involved with all english words and express myself on my own way, literally.

On the other hand, I could learn many blog tools and use them every day to give my own impression about something. Based on the things I said above the main reason I have this blog is because I have fun with it, one way or another I enjoy posting things here for others to read.

I think my blog has been fairly successful and very useful in my English learning. So, maybe I’d share some of my own reflections on this tool forever.

“Be friendly, Write what you know”

[Cartoon ]

What`s up? well, I was thinking in a super cartoon and finally decided this...here it is...
One of my favourite cartoon is ThUnDer CaTs!!!
This cartoon programme tells about a interstellar feline family which arrived to the earth after that their native planet was destroyed because of natural disasters. Then, in the earth the youngest of them, "Leono" will be the leader.
this story is set in a fantastic world where all the cats became friends with differents kind of species like animal, robots and so on...But! they have an enemy...."Munrra, the inmortal" who is a mommy actually.
Looking back on my chilhood , I remember that I was watching them every day in the morning. what else?
I really like this cartoon because they fight for real justice and their characters have really cool powers.

au revoir!

Household chores ¬¬

Truly, I hate doing household chores but I do them regularly because I don't want my house to be too messy and icky. Also, my mom get angry when I do not have all the things in order. She likes that everything looks and smell perfect.
First, I hate doing the dishes!!to be clear... washing and drying.
I get stuck doing them every single day. Besides, we have no dish washer so I have to wash them by hand and I spend time instead of having fun...XD!
So, what`s yours?
cheerio!

My house ¬¬

I`ll provide a brief description of my apartment, actually.
My apartment, situated at the third floor, is very comfortable and brightly illuminated. It’s includes hall way, dining room with a completely equipped kitchen, large living room with a green sofa, Tv, Dvd with home theater and Cd player. Besides, the rooms are furnished to suit all tastes. There are 2 bedrooms, one with a king size bed and the other with twin beds and 2 bathrooms. By the way...I live with my sister.
It is a very lovely and charming flat with the most modern comfort within easy walking distance of the square.

Next reflective Essay

The topic of my essay will be "Low-risk activities" in schools based on the article by Dick Edelstein (1988). The main idea is to discuss how this topic is relate to the Chilean context, including my professional practice or possible future work environment.
First of all, I`ll present an introduction and then my arguments about the biggest problems in chilean’s school which is that students are not learning like the article says “the real risk in the language classroom”. Thinking about that, a few questions comes to my mind ¿what is the sense of risky?¿What teachers need to do an interesting lesson?

Well, I`ll write enought using examples and strong points.
Finally, to conclude by giving good ideas to put in practice to make the students learn with innovative activities to improve learning skills.
As the article said "many innovative activities are not particularly risky" I think that teachers should provide opportunities of participation every class to make students feel comfortable in their learning environment. So, we need teachers with self-determination and they have to be open-minded!
Nowadays, in my work experience at school, I pretty sure that students learn with enjoyable activities and they work as well when something is fun and interesting.

Catch ya later!

school kill creativity

I am very interested to comment on the creativity expert Sir Ken Robinson`s talk.
The speech was brilliant and I agree with most of ideas that he said. He challenges the way we're educating our children. As he said we have to rethink of our school systems in order to cultivate creativity and knowledge.

Most importantly was that Sir Ken Robinson argues that we've been educated to become good workers, rather than creative thinkers.

"We are educating people out of their creativity," Robinson says. Why don't we get the best out of people?

Looking back on my own experience in school, I and my classmates were put inside in a little room for creativity between authoritative, confucius and conservative education environment. School was the biggest bore to me!. We were students with restless minds and bodies far from being cultivated for our energy and curiosity. Actually, we were ignored. X(!

In short, we are all unique and it takes an extraordinary gift to recognize what it is that makes each child special and to help bring out their talents. Education needs to be more inclusive to new ideas, cultures, technologies.

Everyone should watch this. Go there http://www.ted.com
