Children and Friends

When we begin to remember about our live, many memories come to our mind, however, only those that were more beautiful and special make us feel good and smile, and many people think that the childhood is the best stage of life; and somehow, I ‘m agree with them; for this reason, I’m going write about the friendship in the childhood, because most beautiful memories that I have of my childhood, be related to the friendship.

The best years of my childhood were, when I was between eight and twelve years old. I remember that I really enjoyed going to school. I did not have very good grades in the classes; however, I remember that I felt very good at t school every day, because I had many friends in the school. I was friend of all children in the class, and always I was awarded as “the best partner”. I had many friends, because in this moment, I was a girl very happy y friendly, and I was constantly creating new games for play with my classmates. 

I remember especially when I was in sixth grade, and I met to Catalina, one of my best friends until now. Catalina came as a new classmate and immediately, she and I, we became friends. Both had a hobby in common: Tell horror stories, and we were all time tell stories to other classmates. We had really fun. 

I think that the friendship that make when we were kids, are very, very important and significant, because these relations are generally genuine and disinterested. A friend of your childhood is a friend with whom you share many unforgettable memories, also, is a friend with whom you can remember old memories, always. For these reasons, I am totally sure that the friendship is one of my best memories of my childhood.

The Department for Education of Uk, need find between 10% and 15% in cuts over four years. It thinks make is, for example; it use the existing system of allocating extra money to children receiving free school meals. But more money will be granted to some schools, to iron out regional disparities.

The Mapuche´s conflict

The Mapuche people is one of the most important native peoples of Chile. Before the Spanish conquerors arrived to our country, the Mapuche were the original owners of the lands south of Chile, so the conflict began when the conquistadors removed the domain of land to the Mapuche, and the Mapuche anymore return to own land. Since that time the Mapuche have tried to recover what belongs to them, and for this they have faced many political problems over time.


The Mapuche are fighting for their land, and also to care for their cultura.En the last few months, this historic conflict has posed a challenge. The Mapuche have started protesting with much more severe measures, such as hunger strikes. The Mapuche want to be heard by the Chilean justice, freedom and want to get some Mapuche arrested unjustly.

In my opinion, the Mapuche have the right to protest and demand their land, I think that the Chilean government should take care of their peoples, and give them what they need, that is the most fair for everyone.

My last semester!

Hello, now I will write about my experiences in the first semester of this year. Well, it first that I will say is that, in the professional aspect,  the  last semester was really exhausting, but was a semester very beatifull and significant for me, beacuse in the last semester I did my professional practice of my carrer and was a experience very intense, where I could learn a lots of things about the pedagogy, and for this reasons the last semester was very important for me. 

In other aspect of my life - as in my private life-  I could say that the last semester was more relax for me, that others previus semesters, because  despite of the university stress,  I was very satisfied with  my life and my personal succes, I was feeling very happy with the emocional consolidating stability and peace of mind I needed.
however it was a very busy, which usually I could not do my hobbies, so I had a bit tired and bored, for example: I had to stop exercising, stop seeing my friends Often, I had to stop to go dancing on weekends, for the many responsibilities that I had at the time, But fortunately everything was perfect, and it was worth the effort!

Blogs evaluation!

Hi!


Considering that soon finish the English course, I think it’s a good moment to evaluate this curse, and specially the work in the blogs. For this reason, Next, I will write how it was my experience writing in this place.

It first thing I want to say, am that this experience writing in a blog, have been, in my personal case, very different from my experience writing in blog in previous English courses. In the previous English courses the experience was very complicated, for different reasons; one, because it was my first time writing a blog, and on top in another language; I always had a hard time understanding the grammar of ingles, and that, made me feel very insecure as I write. Blogging for me was quite stressful, frustrating, and sometimes a little embarrassing, because I took too long to write something and we had very little time to write.

In addition, I was so load time with the other subject of my career that I had a hard time taking time to write this blog, for this for this reason, always I ascended my blogs back and got bad grades. This was something that, I stressed out a lot.

However, my experience this semester has been very different, because we now have sufficient time within the same class, to write our blogs, what is good, because I allowed me to take the time that I need to create a text on my blog, even though it took me more than the rest of my classmates.

Also in this class, write blogs in a more free and peaceful, the teacher does not force you to write something so specific, and the teacher correct your ask of form nice and with respect, to different was in my past experience. Now, I do not feel it is a task that I must comply with mandatory, but rather as something fun that I permitted learn, which is very different from my experience with the blog above.

I know that I don’t very good, but, I thing in this course I learn too, because, I learn more vocabulary, and when I can obtain write some logically, I feel very fine, because , I really want learn the English language, and then is this a test of that some know, and that I can learn more.

Those in this picture, do not we all knew, when start the workshops, although some of us had worked together in similar workshops in Santiago, in the corporation “Crearte”, but, finally everybody we all became very good friends, since this day, until now; because we have been doing everything together during those two weeks, then, we cooked together, slept in the same house, we talked and we reflected together long hours, and that we met was deeply in a short time.

This photo was taken by a stranger, because we wanted to be everybody, then, we say to a passerby that takes the picture, and was taken before of go to dancing was taken before going out dancing and celebrate our last day.
