FINAL EVALUATION!

Now, we’re in the doors to finish our 1st of Batxillerat. When I started 1st Batxillerat, when I saw all the work that we must do, I was really frightened, but the days passed and the work everyday was less.

At the beginning of the course, I thought that the English project will be really difficult, but now, we did all the activities that it involves, and I think that I improved a lot my English looking for all the sides, writing, speaking and listening.

Looking my portfolio and blog posts from the beginning of the course, I think that I’ve improved a lot during this course. Moreover, when I started to do this project, when I must do a post or a composition, I passed a lot of time doing it, and now, I can do the compositions better and quickly.

I think that all the activities shows my improvement. Beginning for my oral presentations, the first that I did I was really nervous and I spoke with breaks and interruptions, and on my third oral presentation I wasn’t really nervous and I could speak with a little fluency. About my capacity of understand the dialogues, my friends oral presentations, the video news, listenings... is better, ‘cause I practiced more and now it’s more easy for me understand an English conversation. And finally, my writings I think that also have improved, ‘cause I have more vocabulary, more knowledge about linkers and I think that my compositions are more pleasant for read.

In my opinion, the best activities to improve our English are writings, ‘cause at the same times you must think in grammar, vocabulary and how write it, so there are a lot of topics inside one activity. In conclusion, I find useful all the activities that we did during these course.
Apart from doing the proposed activities from the teachers I used to do another one. This activity is translation of songs. I really like do it, ‘cause I learnt the meaning of my favourite songs and I practiced my vocabulary.

The activities that I enjoyed during these first year of project, is doing summaries of news, ‘cause you practice your way to do summaries and you learn things.

Well, apart from all the work that I must did during the course I’m self-satisfied of my English improvement during this 1st Batxillerat!

WE HAVE ALMOST LEARNT TO RESPECT OUR WORLD. DO YOU AGREE?

Nowadays we’re reading a lot of articles from the newspaper and magazines, seeing a lot of reportages from the TV about climate change, global warming…

There are a lot of people who think that they know all about this topic, but I disagree with this.
I think that we don’t know all the things that we must know, or simple we don’t put in practice the things that we know.

In my opinion, I think that there are two groups of persons. Firstly, there is the group who want the best for our planet, and they make associations for save the world, like Greenpeace. Secondly, there is another group that they contaminate the planet without any stop.
These types of persons are deteriorating the world and they are making air pollution, deforestation, global warming and increasing the climate change. Beginning with the animal extinction we can do the human extinction. People don’t want it, but we’re doing it without seeing it.

I think that if we don’t control the activities that we do and we don’t think the repercussions that it will have in the future, we can destroy our planet easily.

In conclusion, I think that we don’t know all the things that we must know to save our planet.

Laura: Laura: Well, I'll talk about the problems that involve have to much water in one country and as you know, people who don't have enough water in her country want to have more, but the others that have a lot ot water don't want to have more.
For example, one problem that exists in a lot of places around the world is the inundation, when it starts to rain very hard or when the sea comes to the Earth. They can lose their houses or maybe their families or simply their own life. It happens usually in countries like China and Japan.
Our world it's really contaminated, so, with all the gases that we have in the sky, it's probably that theses acids will be converted to acid rain. This is a photo when acid rain came to the Earth and hurt the forest.
Other meteorological phenomenon really dangerous for the flora it's the hailstorm, 'cause it can destroy a lot of nature in a really small period of time. For example, in our town, Sant Pere, on last summer, on September, there was a really hard hailstorm and all the farmers lost their apple crop, and their lost a lot of money. It was a really big desaster.
Also, in a place that there is stagnant water there are a lot of possibilities that mosquitoes come so it's really dangerous, 'cause now, in our zone are coming the Tiger mosquitoes, and this type of bite of mosquito it's really painful and really dangerous for the human.
On the other hand, when we are inside a car it's really dangerous drive a car when it's raining, 'cause for the driver it's really difficult to control the car with the rain in the road. Also, other problem that we have it's when a river it's passing on a road, and the current can carry our car away from the river and we can die in a few minutes. About this case, the problem isn't the water, 'cause the persons know that they mustn't pass to this place when it's raining, so the problem are the persons that they aren't conscient about of they are doing at this moment.

Pau.


Laura: As you know, now we are in a period of time that we are missing a lot of water for our lives so I want to put some advices to save more water in our country.
- We must close all the taps of our houses correctly.
- We mustn't take a bath, we must take a shower.
- We mustn't clean our car in our home, we must go to Manu Groc.
- We mustn't have swimming pools in our homes, we must go to the beach or a public swimming pool.
- Switch on the washing machine when it's full of clothes.

In conclusion, we must save a lot fo water 'cause we don't know when we'll really need it. As you know before our oral presentation, a lot of water it's the same that don't have enough.
Well, we think that in our geography situation, we are in a place that we don't have a lot of water but we don't miss it in our times, so we think that in our geography situation we're good.
Well, if you have any questions we'll try to answer it and be water my friend!

Check your Language and Structure. Can you correct your mistakes?

Well, I think that in this third oral presentation I did less mistakes, but I don't know what happened that I used to say "bueno"...
Generally, I think that during the course I've improved my speaking and my pronunciation. course

INFECTION.

There are a lot of people who’re more vulnerable than others to get infections, so during this new summary I’ll tell you why and how we can prevent them.

The causes of the infections are the microscopic organism, which can be bacteria, viruses and fungi. We are surrounded of bacteria, viruses and fungi, so we can't escape from their. Micro-organisms are unavoidable, they’re in the air we breathe, every surface we touch and the food we eat.

The three biggest causes that we get infected from these micro-organisms are these:

• Infections from food: for example when we don’t clean as we must clean an apple. Also we must pay attention with the water that we clean something or we drink, ‘cause depending of the zone it can be infected or full of bad micro-organisms.

• Close contact: like the first contact that we have with the world, with our mother’s skins, or simply, don’t practicing safe sex.

• Hospital-acquired infections: Hospitals are full of bacteria, viruses, fungi and a lot of other micro-organisms that we don’t know that exists, so it’s a place where it’s really easy catch an infection, so we must pay attention and if we are bad, we mustn’t go there, ‘cause we will bring more micro-organisms to the hospital and it will be dangerous for the patients.

If in one place are a lot of people and only one person takes the virus it’s for his immune system, he has low defenses.

The people who’re exposed to more infections are young and old persons, persons with a malnourishment...

To prevent infections we must wash our hands regularly, follow a healthy diet, practice safe sex...

COMMON MISTAKES.

Always, when we do our texts, we make mistakes. There are a lot of common mistakes with us, so I will put some of them.
Sometimes, we can confuse these words: dead (the adjective), died (the noun) and death (the verb). For example, died people it’s incorrect, we must put dead people. It was a common mistake in Frankenstein’s exam. I think that I was one of the persons who did this mistake.
Like the previous mistake, we confuse life (the noun) with live (the verb), and I think that I’m one of the persons who did this mistake too! We must have clear that the plural of life is lives.
Another common mistake with us is the demostratives. Sometimes we change this with these, for example this investigations it’s incorrect, and we must put these investigations.
When we expose our opinions, sometimes, we did this mistake: I’m agree with…, and we must put I agree with. I recognize that I was one of the persons that did this mistake, but I use it usually, so I think that I improved this mistake. Now, when I write something I remember it, and I don’t do this mistake.
At the beginning, when we didn’t know anything about the connecting files, we put “on the one hand”, and now, we know that we must put,” on the other hand”, because usually, we use this connector and we know a little bit more about connecting files.
Well, I think that these mistakes are the more important that we did in this second term, and we commented in class, so I decided to do a revision to improve more all these mistakes.
