...... About the article....

When, I enter the website indicated (www.guardian.co.uk/), immediately I chose the item of education, because my career is Education preschool and initial basic, then it was logical to select a news from there.

The news is called “Nappy curriculum 'boosts basic skills”, this is about the implementations of a curriculum created by the government. This intervention in education, is for early preschool education, for children between three and four years. The main objective of stimulating to children for that they reach targets for basic literacy, numeracy and social development. The results, by a side has been positive because the percentage increase in basic skills of the children, but also has been negative because it decreases the percentage of the children who were more capable because they worked at higher levels before the project implementation. Precisely, that this decrease text considers important in the results of children than before is highlighted.

Now, as a student of pedagogy, I think that a good teacher should be able to prepare a class for the different levels at which are children. Unfortunately, if children more highlighted don´t respond as before, this may be because they are worried about the majority, and the teachers and the curriculum forget diversity in the classroom. Diversity is a key element to is having a good education. Also, I think that preschool education is not to pressure to children, they can not provide schooling for a child of three or four years, the children should learn according to their stages of development.

... Cinema Films....

Going to the cinema is not a bad option when you want to do something fun. I remember that as a child, my family and I were going to see the movies. We liked to go the cinema because the image you see in a very large screen, listened a lot better, the seats were comfortable, you could eat popcorn, and was a good opportunities to share with family. With the step of the years, we even go to movies at least one day a month.

Then, during my childhood I saw several movies, but my favorite is “the lady and the tramp”. This film was produced by Walt Disney in year 1955. The movie is about a couple of dogs that come from very different realities. But, although they have differences which may have their lifestyles, tastes, etc, they can have a relationship.

I like this movie, is one of my favorite first because it reminds me of my childhood, and second because it teaches values as the friendship and the love. These two reasons are the good points of the film. In short, is a movie that at first glance seems to be light in content, but if you look with attention can find some very interesting elements.

... what to do/ where to go in Santiago ...

The good about Santiago, is that as the capital of our country it has several places to visit, and various activities for residents of this place, and for visitors. I was born in the metropolitan region, and I have always lived, in the commune of Santiago, specifically.

Then, I know this place, I would recommend visiting the sites most characteristic, for example some tourist attractions are at the center of Santiago there you can visit the “paseo peatonal Londres” begins in the Plaza San Francisco and goes to Alonso Ovalle, this area is declared as a typical area of the capital, and is by its architecture of the years 30. Also, we have “La casa de la Moneda”, which now occupies the seat of government, is very interesting to visit because it is part of our history, and you can visit their museum. And, if you walk a few streets, arriving at the "Plaza de Armas" maybe this place is not pretty, but worth the trip because there is the cathedral, this if is beautiful.

And that's not all, after of visit places that are part of our national identity, after of know places more characteristic in our history. It's time to visit other sites as the “Santuario de la naturaleza Yerba Loca”, where there are long roads, beautiful landscapes, different ecosystems and many animals and plants. Here, you can take long walks, contemplatethe nature, make camping with the family, walking horses, and of course, take many pictures.

And finally, I recommend the "Barrio Bellavista" because already mentioned most cultural places, and other natural environments, but we needed somewhere for the fun. On these streets will find several restaurants, some dance clubs, or if you prefer there are also karaoke, there is local for all tastes. You will not regret visiting these places.¡

...MY FAVORITE TV.SERIAL ....

The true is that, I am not good for to watch TV, because in my free time I prefer to do other things, as by example I like going to the cinema with my family or I love going out with my friends at different places.

But, considering how little of TV than I see, I can say that my favorite TV. serial is “Sex and the city”. IT is not difficult choose for my because I think immediately in this serial. I like this.¡

This serial is about the story of four women, who are united by a great friendship. They live in New York, and that is where they pass through joys and sorrows, loves and hates, but they always have the support of her friends. Right, that´s why it is my favorite, by the concept of friendship that living, and that is an example, the unconditional friendship. Moreover, this comedy is about relevant problems for society and especially for women which more than a chapter, they feel identified with the characters.

I will recommend it to everyone, simply, because it is a mixture, you can entertain, and also you reflect on your life, and social events. Maybe at the beginning you do not like much, but slowly you captivate, and you end up like me, without bother you watch in different channels the old chapters.

Transantiago...before and after.¡¡

I can not forget that the pre-Transantiago system, It was not bad for me because I had several buses for I travel from my house to all the communes of Santiago, and it was best that you wouldst only one bus and ready, you arrive at your destination. Besides if I didn’t want to take bus, I could travel by underground, this was faster, comfortable and clean. Precisely, this last, the bus was a feature negative because the most of them were old, then they were in very good condition, so that they were unsafe.

Now if we compare the old with the new system I would say the new system, unlike the previous one, to I travel from one commune to another I have to take more than a bus, and even take underground. I think these combinations are tiring and are a negative feature because it takes more time after all. And, I don’t think only this¡ But, if the current system is better because the users must use a card to cancel, this allows than the drivers with less danger, because without money will not be attacked.

The truth is that I hate it a little to Transantiago because to travel from home to university, I have to make several changes of underground to bus, of metro to bus, etc. Then, I linger long in coming and that did not happen before¡.

The idea of changing the system is not bad, but if arrangements need to improve roads, or build more lines, because another negative feature is that the bus and underground collapse at certain hours and that should not be so arrangements needed to improve routes.

"A Country I would like to visit"

Is very difficult for me select only a country, because I like to visit several countries around the world, because each one of they has different culture, and every one these place it has a special magic.

But, as I have to choose just one. First, I would like to visit España because It is my favorite country. I Like to go a this country because since that I was a girl, I heard to talk about it. And moreover, when I was eight years, I started to dance “flamenco”, I had classes in the school, in the which I learned about this beautiful dance.

España don’t is unknown country, It is a popular tourist destination of several people, because this country has many interesting places to visit, has a fantastic architecture, and has beautiful place to know, and that's not all. Also, there I could find a good meal, according to the than have been, they recommend to try the typical dishes, and they recommend to visit some traditional festivals.

I would like to know each historical site, each beautiful landscape and most of all I want to know many people and that they talk me about their cities. And not only that, in the next future I want to study in España, because there are good opportunities, it is a place that give a good education. España is a great place to live for a time, it fulfills with all necessary, and it is a modern country.

“Good and bad points”

I´m going to talk about my first term the this year. In that time I had good and bad moments. It`s very common in the life of the people. If everything was only good or bad, it`s would be very strange¡.

In relation to the good, I remember my stay in university. The true is that I reach to finish of this successfully period, because I approve all courses. I learned many new knowledge of education. Also, I shared more time with my friends, because our hours of classes were many, We were together all day. And, another positive point was in relation with the deport, I started to play football in the university, first it was not easy but with the time it was more entertaining. I would like to practice again this sport during this term, it was one of my favorite activities.

But, in relation to the bad points, it is very easy to say. For me, the worst of the previous months was the class timetable. The first class of the day started at 8:30 a.m, then I had to get up very early because my house is far from the university, I take an hour and a half in to get, and something similar happens at school dismissal, as us we had several classes, I arrived at my house at night and very tired, Then I had less time to share with the family.

I can not deny that the term was difficult. I finished very tired. And just after, I could rest, because started the holidays, it was a good point¡.
