Critical Thinking

Hi Everybody,
I’m going to talk about Barbara and Francisca’s presentation. They talked on a Pink Floyd’s song called “Another brick in the wall” which talks about how the education were during 70-80’s decades. In which they showed us the meaning of the lyric, the main problems of education in those year, especially from teachers like repression and control to their students, frustration, bullying, etc. Also, they give us their point of view about education and what the though about the bad way in which teachers acted those years.
Plus, they showed us that we can make the different working at school in which teachers respect their students, accept their opinion, and so forth because those thoughts would be a good way to improve the relationship that teachers have with their students. That’s why they made us some questions to think about.
To be honest, I liked this presentation because they wanted to show us how the school’s life is
developed.

Some questions,
Nowadays, why is important to respect each other in class?

In which way can we change the way in which we teach?

Do you think students need to have someone in this case a teacher concern for them?

Poetry


Divine mother

I was wandering the street with my mind in blank

Glancing at mum taking care of her little daughter to cross the avenue

Suddenly I remember my mum doing the same

I could not stop the rain in my face

Remember that mothers give the life for us.




I was wandering slowly around the park

Gazing at younger couple

Smiling and floating on their own world

They looked like just the only human being in the earth

This made me believe that yet love exit

When you though there’s no way to find it again.

I absolutely agree with Richard's message. Success is a continuo journey in which we have to give our best effort to improve and to be as we wish. As said Richard, success can spend many times, not just a little time. For that reason, I think that in many classroom children are not interests because they hope to receive all the things immediately. In the other hand, teachers are not motivating students, therefore they are not motivated to reach their dreams, getting success or improve their life. In the case of my work experiences, students are being motivated for their English’s teacher who invited them to be active in class working, playing, asking, etc. They can feel supported by their teacher. Therefore, they feel motivated to participate. Why? Because they are focus on that, they word hard to improve, they feel comfortable.

Personal Success

I do not know if I have had many successes in my life. However, one of my biggest successes was in the high school, getting the best average of the school.
Since I was a child, I have always dreamt to achieve my aim and in this case, it comes true. It makes me feel very well and of course my family felt the same.
They always said my, “if I work hard; I will get on my life the entire thing that I want.” For that reason, I make my best effort to improve and get a bright future in my life.
Other success that I have had good memories, it was when I was in eighth grade.
During this year, I played with my partners one of my favourite deport “basketball”, for a race, in which we got the gold medalist, something that I have never thought that we were going to win because our competitors were very good. Nevertheless, it made us to understand that making our best effort and working in groups; we could reach thing amazing like this, have won this race and being recognized for our school.
Well, these successes have been my major personal success during my short life. I hope to have more successes in my life and to be happy as you. :)
