Blogging
Is a popular form of e-communication. Many people write blogs, and even more people read them. There are both advantages and disadvantages to blogging.

Advantages:
Blogs are helpful to internet users because they them find the Web sites that are better than others. Blogs are also useful for writers because people all over the world can read and comment on their writing.

Disadvantages:
On the other hand, blogging is not always a good way to build a reputation. There are many millions of blogs on the Internet. A blogger may have to wait a long time for readers to notice his or her blog.

Conclusion:
I think that blogging is useful because it provides information to large number of readers.  

 

Block 3 - Topic: Things happen (Unit 9)


Things to happen. Share an experience about a time when you lost or broke something. Think of a short anecdote about something that happened to you this week. Share your ideas.

When I was shopping at the mall last week, I lost my wallet with all my money and credit cards in it. I spent a long time looking for it with no luck. I was really upset because it had my spare house key and my address in it, too.

Anyway, later that day after I got home, my doorbell rang. Apparently, he saw it on the ground when he was walking into the mall. He drove all the way to my house to give it to me! I couldn’t believe it! I was so lucky!

16 students created, sang and danced the song about Past Continuous
This is the lyrics:

"I was walking through the door when I saw Angelina
I was talking on the phone when he called my name
I was singing in this song when I kissed Christina
She was wearing up her boots when it started to rain
I was dancing on the streets when she looked my way
Se was coming in my direction when I started to faint
I was sleeping, I was dreaming when she slapped my face
I was really going crazy but she escaped away"

Adolescence describes the teenage years between 13 and 19 and can be considered the transitional stage from childhood to adulthood. Adolescence can be a time of both disorientation and discovery.

Block 1 - Topic: Meet new people (Unit 1)

When you meet new people, how do you usually start a conversation? Are you the conversation starter or the follower? Share your experience.

Pobably  many people throughout the course of your dating preparations that could be The One, but you’ll never know for sure . the Starting a conversation with a stranger can be daunting, but it doesn’t have to be impossible.

Every conversation runs its course within a similar outline: making first contact, introductions, speaking with each other, and then ending the conversation - hopefully with plans to meet again. To navigate these sometimes scary but usually rewarding waters.


Some conversation starter ideas to get the words flowing:
 •Comment on an item that you both share in your immediate surroundings, such as the long lineup you’re both waiting in .

•If there is something the person is or has that truly intrigues you, simply use that as a conversation starter. This could be as simple as admiring a piece of clothing or asking them about the item they ordered.

when I know new people, I who initiated the conversation:
- I ask his name
- Then I ask that is dedicated
- how old is
- what study career

- In what cycle is now
- In what district live
- Has a job.


Example:
                                                  - hi!  What's your name
                                                 -I'm jorge
                                                 -which career are you studying?
                                                  -I'm in graphic design
                                                 -really?,and what cycle are you?
                                                  -in the third.

is as well as I make friends, and I have many. <!--[endif]-->

Resources:

Step 1: 
Whether you like it or not, kids form initial opinions based on clothes, hair, and fashion sense. Make an extra effort to look your best those first few days. Looking good will boost your confidence, too!

Tip
You're not going to be rolling in friends on Day 1. Devote the first couple of weeks to laying solid groundwork.

Step 2: 
Come out of your shell. If you're naturally shy, you don't have to fake a new personality. But try to avoid looking at the ground, and flash a smile once in a while. The easier you are to approach and start a conversation with, the more other kids will want to talk to you.

Step 3: 
Find excuses to talk to people. Once you get a conversation going, be a good listener and offer up a compliment or two, no matter how small.

Tip
Build up a little courage and sit in the middle of the classroom to surround yourself with as many potential new friends as possible.

Step 4: 
Get involved in the extra-curricular activities you enjoyed at your old school. Join a sports team, help with the yearbook, try out for a play -- anything that interests you. Joining a club or team is a great way to start because you have at least one thing in common with everyone in the room.

Tip
Cast a wide net -- don't just focus on the popular people. Making friends in different circles will open you up to more options.

Step 5: 
Use the web. Sign up for a social-networking site and join your school's group page. Post some videos and pictures and write a few blog entries to showcase who you are. Kids at school will discover your personality through the web and all that small-talk torture will start to disappear.

Step 6: 
Get a part-time job where you know fellow classmates work. Meeting kids outside of school and bonding over menial work is often a recipe for friendship.
