How Much To Rent A Sailboat?

Meme on happiness

After the maelstrom of the final course, with Virtual Congress included, I have taken this bridge of Sant Joan ( sorry for communities that have not had) as a mini-vacation avant la letre fully unplugged computers, emails, and sms. Well, anything that is not cocaine, champagne and beach.
When I opened the mail, I find this meme in which I have imbloglucrado Lu (the buzzword is yours) and Angus .

The rules are:

-link to the person who invites us
-list six unimportant things that make us happy
-
to state rules, to elect six people to continue with the challenge
-Leave a comment on

your blog

This meme has reminded me film Things that make life worth (2004) by Manuel Gómez Pereira. The leitmotif of the movie are the voice-overs for Gemma Nierga e Iñaki Gabilondo listing precisely those little things that make us happy.

Well here are mine:

1. Look at my son when he does not know that I'm looking, and hallucinations every day with the mystery of life to think how that little thing round and wrinkled that once fit in the palms of my hands can now be an autonomous being spoken Read ... dreams of their own.

2. Read on the beach. There is nothing that makes me feel as good as those Sunday afternoons indolence in which devoured reams between dip and dip.

3. Drinking coffee with my friends and kick back and half the human and divine. I remember Isabel Allende in her autobiographical novel The sum of days says that every woman should have that circle of special friends with whom to share things. Totally agree.

4. Play flamenco. As a sample, of Aute Al alba, versioned by José Mercé. Creeps, fixed.

5. Sing. I think it is the gift by which the gods wanted to give me, good voice. So just dare me at home in the car, in karaokes ...

6. Go to work. No ... no, no one misunderstand me. I'm not a workaholic. I enjoy my moments of rest, I'm not working at all hours. I mean every day I feel well go to a job I like, relate to people around me, learn, help people enhance ... in short the human side of work.

Well, now comes the hard part, since most of my blogamigos have already expressed their happiness in their blogs. Step this meme to Antonio de Nosa Biblioteca (share his library Revitalization workshop also made me very happy), to Felipe Zayas with I've also coincided in the studio, JM Armayor , I've met in Ning, a Gonzalo de Darabuc , whose preciousness blog recently and I met Francesca Verd of Atelier de Feng Shui , I meme spent a few months ago I could not continue due to lack of time.

All ... Keep on being happy!

The Firefox browser is a cane. Firefox extensions are a cane. I could put melodramatic and say that "because I could not live without my personalizadísimo Firefox extensions." Most useful for a language teacher: I l correction spelling. But there are many more, and continue to grow as bolets. "

The other day I read in blog Felipe Zayas the existence of Add-Art, a Firefox extension that turns out those annoying commercials side of pages of free services in a work of art.



This is how you see my website in the Classroom from the Explorer:



And so it is in Firefox Add-art extension enabled:


I have found that also works on Wikispaces. There

who think that these ads are not bothersome, but as a mother and teacher I am concerned that children and young people are surrounded by advertisements for "Chat hot" and other pages much less desirable. I think seriously the option of installing the add-on to computers on high school students.

Or maybe you could bring serial Linkat?

Today was a very special and emotional. A group of teachers have gathered to celebrate the retirement of Pepe Lopez, the first mate of mine who is retiring from the classroom. For me the excitement has been twofold, as I have been acting as companion and former student of hers. Among other things, we have given words, written by each of us, and bound into a book of memories. They still have mine:

rattles his fingers on the green table, while students are reading, as always, in silence. That's why the sight he will not want to the window and thought, at other times. Outside it's raining, and so little rain that seems to have come to water their last days in high school, to give a touch of nostalgia that is having this year ends. Remember

almost without trying its principles, even in times of dictatorship ... "I had not collejas in class! "seems to mean the act of half-smile that appears in the corner of his mouth. Many students then are now parents, workers, entrepreneurs. Looking

not say, but is about to retire. Do not say it always comes to school with a smile on the lips, and some funny comment to her colleagues ... "How do you teach the teacher!". And goes to class with the same energy, or more, that we have been a very long time unless he struggling with the students.

And that which has taken them to see in all colors. First as a teacher in a school neighborhood public, then and in high school, attend to the UAC, Classrooms Open or any other euphemism that the administration wants to label these students with others do not know what to do.

not use ICT, and ... needless truly makes him! I laugh of those who think that the teachers connect more young people are more motivated because they are closer to the reality of bit generation.

His students love him and respect him. Respect him because he represents to them the figure that, unfortunately, many lack: the authority that dictates what is right, and repressing what is wrong, with respect and through dialogue. It is the only teacher I have ever met that students of all generations call Mr. Smith.

Now we say goodbye to the partner (not the friend), and do it with an intimate celebration, nothing official. And everything is invested with a halo bittersweet. Pepe the joy of this well-deserved rest and feeling sorry for orphans left to us to which we must continue to soldier on without their advice.

Pepe, we wish you well.

My first appointment ... Spanish Redhead

Yes, tomorrow I have my first appointment ... in Second Life. I stayed with the group members Second Life, Educational Applications , Internet network on Ning Classroom for a walk, tomorrow, Thursday 5 / 5, at 22 am on the Peninsula.

The truth is that I have not very clear. When I opened the account last year, at the request of my sister, I thought they were entering a sort of role-playing game to the Sims. I created the avatar MJO Quinnell.
The truth is that the good thing is that virtual reality takes away, and, without surgery or anything, 20 years and 20 pounds. For total, I noticed several times and supremely bored me, because I knew no one. I also felt, what Sabina sang, like a bullfighter on the other side ...

But look you where, after I read the blog of Bea Marin it can have educational applications and now Ferran Mas invites me to join the SL group of Congress.
Nothing, if the gods do not prevent it (are there gods in Second Life?) We'll be there tomorrow to see what we have prepared the hosts.

I still have it very clear, because I've tried entering the address they had given me, and I have come to a site written in Chinese characters, and Japanese ligerita clothes. He quickly tried to flee, seeking some urgency ... get, get, "Rome" teleported me and arrived at a reconstruction of a Pompeii quite rare, because seems the galleries of a shopping center with ... "Roman ligerita clothes"!



I already explain ...

How Long Does A Jar Of Bubbles Last?

Since I have opened my blog As a queen, many people contacted me, I guess I stand to it by having my picture (real, but has chosen to go out a little with most favored ... trap may be made right?) and my email.


Well, I've already received several gifts through (or because) of the blog. The last was a book, on the day of Sant Jordi. This is English Redhead of Enrique Galindo (ed. Irreveretes) and I sent the author himself.
promised that when we read would give my opinion. Well here goes, Enrique.

The book has surprised me ... pleasantly. When I started reading I created expectations about the plot then not met. What would you think you begin a novel:

"I would write naked, on a white wall, wetting my penis in an inkwell and forming fine words on the wall ..."

Well this is not an erotic novel at all. It is a friendship between an old man who can barely fend by itself, and "Kangaroo", if the term can be used. In my opinion, the book is, in essence, of human loneliness, but the most cruel, which is not wanted, but imposed.

Two things could reproach Redheads. One, a first-person narrator is cast twice (at the beginning and towards the middle) and not just relate to the overall plot of the novel, narrated by an omniscient narrator.
The second, which is too short. It reads very quickly, and leaves you with the desire to continue seeing and living with the characters, their miseries, perhaps because of this need we have of happy ending, the hero down to hell and up, that evolve and redeem.

Thank you for your gift, Enrique. This novel has left me with the same sense of one who eats chocolate, and look all around the whole box. I hope your writing career is long and fruitful. Let me know when you write another book. I guess then you'll already a cache and I have to go buy it at the bookstore.

From the 2006-07 academic year our librarian Núria Reichardt we proposed to the components of language departments could jointly develop a portfolio of our students reading 1st cycle of ESO, to scroll gradually each year to add one more level, to complete the whole and high school. It was involved Project to Promote the Reading Núria Reichardt had driven this year 2006-07. This portfolio of reading is inspired by the European Language Portfolio, PEL1, which is an adaptation rather sui generis to the reality of our center.

PORTFOLIO WHAT IS READING?

currently is a folder that has two rings on the back the name of the student and the course that started 1 º ESO in high school. Contains plastic bags where they will keep all student work related to reading, from 1 to 4 of ESO or school, if applicable. Currently stored in the library.



The main purpose of the portfolio is that the student has evidence, physical evidence of the process of reading motivation. In the comparison between two different stages of the same activity is when students become aware of their learning. It is the students themselves reflect on their learning process (as far as reading is concerned in this case), and is an active subject of his own self. To do this, students write a statement read or review for each book you read, following this guide:

In addition there keep everything related to reading (works of authors about books on poetry, reading reviews, etc.). We chose this format, when the time in which the student leaves the center, you can bind it all and is in the form of chronological dossier, which is clearly visible the evolution of the student both in quantity / quality of their readings, and quantity / quality of their ratings, their changes in taste drive. It's about having "evidence" of the student's reading activity passing through the institute.


To move the student to think, use metacognitive questionnaires, which I attached a sample. We had at the end of the course, and after having answered, students write an introduction, an index and a conclusion to his portfolio and deliver everything in the folder.

Earlier I said that " currently "the portfolio is a physical folder (except reading our wiki), but we're toying with making the leap to digital, to what has been called" eportfolios "or" eportfolio "(in part this is fault that I'm in this workshop).
