Improving my writing

Dear Ms X

Each morning over the past six years, I have been so happy to see my students walk in the door and see my classroom take life again.Being a primary school teacher feels so natural to me, yet for the past few months I have been longing for and thinking about a new personal challenge in the field of primary education.As I iam very much intrigued by different cultures and languages I have decided to start looking for a position at an international school.

As it is a relatively young international school and I would like to be member of a pioneering and ambitious team,your school attracted my attention. I also like the fact it is a Dutch subsidized school with competitive fees,so it is open to a very broad variety of students.Last, as I think this city an also the Dutch culture have much offer,I value the fact that the experience of living in Amsterdam and Netherlands are being such used and added to the multicultural setting of your school.

To me, children of these ages are still very spontaneous and eager to learn and at the same time able to communicate and discuss well,so I am interested in positions groups 3-8.Although in view of my university education,teaching secondary school students might be a future job possibility to me.I am an open minded person with excellent social skills,tolerate pressure easily.Group management,organizing and planning is natural to me. I graduated at an outstanding technical university and worked several years as an consulting engineer and groupleader in the field of logistics and general management. This way I developed my rational, analytical and coordinating skills. Then I decided to really follow my heart and passion and became a primary school teacher.

I believe value would be added to you organisation with my skills And enthusiasm as well I would appreciate very much to be interviewed so we could discuss more about the job description, my motivation and suitability .

Yours sincerely,

Candidate Y

To kill a mockingbird

Boo radley diary

July 16

yesterday I saw children outside of my home, it was really weird because I have never seen child so close to my house in many years, I think that it's because there are many stories and rumors about me and my past that are fake, like that I am about six-and-a-half feet tall ,I eat squirrels and cats that I catch ,that my hands were bloodstained because once you ate a raw animal, the blood would not wash off and also that I stabbed one of his family members with a pair of scissors.

writing task 3

1. Do we change our identity when we wear different clothes,for example, when we are not wearing our school uniform?


I think that we dont change our identity when we wear different clothes , we only change the wey that we look and also how we feel  more comfortable.Maybe we can change our attitudes our clothes but our identity will be the same.

2.Do we change our way of speaking when we are wearing different types of clothes, for example, school uniform or more casual clothes?

 I think that no,  because the way we talk does not depend on what clothes are you wearing, it depends on the country or place where you  lives or the people with  you interact every day.

3. How do our clothes represent our identity?

Clothes can represent our identity in many ways because it shows like a image of who are you and also whew you came from, for example in football , we can see that in the football world cup there are different countries that have differents uniforms that represents the country with the colors of the flag and with the emblem because all of them have differents identities.

Writing task animal farm

Dear editor,

I am writing to you this letter because i require to inform you about the different changes that the animal farm has suffered.First of all i would like to tell you about old major's speech before he got shot.In the speech old major proposed a radical change where humans are expelled from the farm,as old major considered them to use animals for their own benefit.In other words old major propose a "rebellion".The first important change after the death of old major was that napoleon takes the leadership and successfully performing the rebellion.Other change was that napoleon and the others pigs comes up with Seven Commandments, which are to form the basis of Animalism.They are ,whatever goes upon two legs is an enemy ,Whatever goes upon four legs, or has wings, is a friend.No animal shall wear clothes.No animal shall sleep in a bed.No animals shall drink alcohol.No animal shall kill any other animal. All animals are equal.In others words the animals takes totally the control of the farm.Now that you know the changes I will proceed to inform you the relation of the animal farm with the Russian revolution.This book portray the Russian Revolution of 1917 as one that resulted in a government more oppressive, totalitarian, and deadly than the one  it overthrew.You can see this in the some characters because they represents the figures of the Russian Revolution , like old major that represents Karl Marx , Napoleon that represent Stalin and Snowball that represent Leo Trostky.Finally I regret to inform you  that is the end of  letter .

Regards, Esteban Karmy

Animal farm

1.What is your reaction to the animal's revolution ?

I am agree with the revolution because is okay that the animals demand respect and have a fair deal.


2.Do you sympathize with the animal’s complaints and goals? Why? Why not?

I sympathize with the ideas of the animals because  is unfair to treat them wrong and take advantage of them but I think that the way that them resolved the situation was not the best.

3.Describe how the rebellion takes place? How does the animal’s behavior during the rebellion suggest human characteristics?

the rebellion takes place after the death of old major,and it  was led by napoleon.The animals  attack all together making expel human farm and taking the control of the farm.Some human characteristics in the animals like that they got together against the humans,and they wey  that they were prepared for the revolution becuase they look like a real army.

4.How do the pigs gain the rights to the cow’s milk? Why do the other animals allow this? What does this event suggest about power in hierarchy on the farm?

The pigs gain the rights the cow’s milks because Napoleon had the lead and control of the farm, so he make excuses and lies because he wanted to have all the food and stuff for him and for squiler.The animals allows this because they are a little scared of Napoleon and also because they say that if Napoleon say somethig , it since that is the best because he is the leader.

5.What is your reaction to Snowballs expulsion from Animal Farm? Explain

I think the expulsion of snowball was unfair because he was  only trying to give an idea to help everyone on the farm, but Napoleon thought he wanted to take the lead of the farm so he opted to expel him.

6.Identify three ways that Napoleon tries to solidify his leadership on the farm. How does the process of decision making on the farm change under Napoleons leadership?

Three ways where that Napoleon expel snowball from the farm because in a wey he was like his competition for the leadership, Other was the seven commandments that the pigs established.And the other way was Napoleon made the animal believe that he was doing the right thinks and the best for the farm.The process of decision change because Napoleon made that the animals of the farm where sacared of him, so nobody could question him and also because he changes the commandments, in order that all the things that he did where right , so he had the control of all.

7.Why do the executions take place? What message do these events send to the animals about their role in a future society?

The executions take place because Napoleon wanted to impose fear on the animals to show them what happend  if someone question him or is not agree with the rules that he dictated.

8.Do you think it’s fair that those who are more educated or more skilled like the pigs in Animal Farm have more influence on the decision making? Who makes the decisions in your family, community and nation?

I think that is fair that the people that is more educated or more intelligent have to take the decision , but in the case of the animal farm is unfair because the pigs are not doing th best for the farm and for the other animals.In my family my parents takes the decision , in the community the teachers and in the nation the president.

9.By the end of the film it can be suggested that the pigs and human political leaders are interchangeable. How might power change those who have it?

The power sometimes can change the people in a bad way like what happened with Napoleon or in a good way because you can be a very good leader and help many people , but that depends on you.

10.In your opinion are the pigs in Animal Farm more intelligent than all the other animals? What qualities enabled them to lead the others? Provide examples that support your answer.

In my opinion the pigs where more intelligent than the other animals but i think that the most intelligent was snowball because he was the only one of the others pigs that really wanted to help the other animals and the farm.The others pig where intelligent too because they use tactics to control the animal but with all the power they change and turn into bad animals because they wanted the best for they own and not for farm.Some examples are that Snowball invented an idea for helping on the farm and also that he was the fisrt of th farm that learm how to read and write.

Lyrics:


When the days are cold

And the cards all fold

And the saints we seeAre all made of gold

When your dreams all fail

And the ones we hail

Are the worst of all

And the blood’s run stale


I want to hide the truth

I want to shelter you

But with the beast inside

There’s nowhere we can hide

No matter what we breed

We still are made of greed

This is my kingdom come

This is my kingdom come


When you feel my heat

Look into my eyes

It’s where my demons hide

It’s where my demons hide


Don’t get too close

It’s dark inside

It’s where my demons hide

It’s where my demons hide


When the curtain’s call

Is the last of all

When the lights fade out

All the sinners crawl

So they dug your grave

And the masquerade

Will come calling out

At the mess you made


Don’t want to let you down

But I am hell bound

Though this is all for you

Don’t want to hide the truth

No matter what we breed

We still are made of greed

This is my kingdom come

This is my kingdom come


When you feel my heat

Look into my eyes

It’s where my demons hide

It’s where my demons hide


Don’t get too close

It’s dark inside

It’s where my demons hide

It’s where my demons hide


They say it’s what you make

I say it’s up to fate

It’s woven in my soul

I need to let you go

Your eyes, they shine so bright

I want to save their light

I can’t escape this now

Unless you show me how


When you feel my heat

Look into my eyes

It’s where my demons hide

It’s where my demons hide


Don’t get too close

It’s dark inside

It’s where my demons hide

It’s where my demons hide

Travel Writing

Have you ever gone to New York? If your answer is no, believe me you missed something awesome.Since I'm a good friend I will tell a little of this city.First o all I want to tell you that you can meet different cultures, and the people here is very nice,the only problem is that sometimes there are too many people that you cand find some phonies.

Also you can find a lot of attractions and places to visit, like Central Park, it's located in the middle of Manhattan, and you can do a lot of things there, like going to the lagoon to see the ducks, walk around and relax, play tennis etc. Inside the park, you can also visit the Central Park Zoo. Near the park you can visit the Museum of Natural History, one of the largest in the world where you can learn new things and expand your knowledge.If you are going to shopping, defiantly you need to go to the Fifth Avenue, a wonderful place to buys some fancy clothes , gifts and stuff. If you prefer to visit buildings and would like to have a beautiful view of the whole city, no problem ! , you can visit the Empire state,one of the biggest skyscrapers of the world and also the statue of the liberty ,one of the most important icons of NYC.

Maybe this is not all that you can do in this enormous city, but I think that are the most important and fun , believe me and not to others phonies.I think that is a beautiful city where you can have fun with your friends and family.

Week Summary

Before this week, i didn't know anything about was modernism about, and what I learned this week it’s that modernism is a movement that we can see it in literature, like the catcher in the rye for example , Arts, and architecture. I think that i need to review more modernism on architecture, because there are a lot of important facts and keywords.Also in this week we did some posters and some presentation about modernism where each group presents about modernism in arts, literature and architecture. After that we did a short summary of what we said on the presentation.

Modernism: Architecture

Modernism: Architecture

We made a short presentation where with my partners Guillermo Ahumada and Carlos Jimenez, we talk about architecture of modernism,where we said some important facts like this:

The modern movement in architecture and industrial design, which emerged in the early 20th century, responded to sweeping changes in technology and society

Reacting against historicism, the Wiener Werkstätte employed simplified shapes, geometric patterns, and minimal decoration. A great deal of attention was put on fine craftsmanship. This followed the group's motto: “Better to work ten days at one piece than to manufacture ten pieces in one day.” 

Modern architecture is generally characterized by simplification of form and an absence of applied decoration. It is a term applied to an overarching movement, with its exact definition and scope varying widely.

Also i would like to say that of the most importan and most influences  city of the modernism was Vienna becauseit there takes place this important movementsand also was one of the first cities.

Discussion point page number 162

1.- What effect would video recording and distribution have on the film industry?

Cinema will no longer have the same importance and the same customers as before because most of the people would prefer to see movies for free at home, so that cinemas will get less money.

.2.- How would radio and television negatively affect film and record sales? How could the development of radio and television be used to boost film and record sales?

Affect negatively if the television and radio broadcast the films and records for free or in a cheaper way to people, because the people will not be interested on the product any more. It will boost if the TV and the radio do commercials because it will get people attentions and they will buy the films or the records.

 3.- How has digital technology and the increased use of the Internet affected film and sound recording? How has the Internet had an effect on distribution?

It has affected for bad because as the good and free  distribution of the internet , now there are many web sites where you can get new films and songs for free whiteout the need of paying, what it’s bad for the film and record sales. The effect of the internet was massive connection for everyone and anywhere in the world, which is good for sending a message or commercial to anyone, but bad because its very easy to distribute these products.

4.- What distinctions can we make between professional film and sound productions and personal or amateur use?What role do they both play, and are these roles interchangeable?

Obviously the professional productions have a better work because they had more experiences and they have tools, techniques of best quality that will help them to make a more specialized work than an amateur production. he role that they do is to show us the difference between a professional and an amateur and they are no interchangeable. Also with more time and experience you pass to a professional.

1. First impressions on video 1

How does the video portray the image of power?

Its reflects the power the power of the words, and how they can produce a change in people

What are the main differences between the text in the first sign and in the second one?

It’s the same idea but in different words.

What was the people´s reaction to the first sign like?

People didn’t take care about the sign of the blind man

What was the people´s s reaction to the second sign?

The second sign has strongest words so people feel more affected and  feel more involved and have more compassion,

Does the video effectively reflect the power of words?

Yes, because when the blind man use the second sign attracts more the attention from people and earned more money.

4. Detail explanation of techniques

The main technique we are using in our interactive poster is the problem and benefit, and that the problem is that young people today do not carry much physical activity because they are more sedentary and prefer to stay home, so the benefit we are giving the sport is free, where anyone interested can participate in the academy as our poster says "our academy is a group open to men and women of all ages". Also we used imperative form to call the attention of people like, as it says in the poster “SIGN IN NOW!” We used the testimonial technique like when we mention Gary Gait (that is a lacrosse famous player) saying media “Join in now! And play like me!” Also we included some mass media like broadcast media, the video in the poster and the website that is www.lacrosseacademy.com that can be used to consult us.
