The reason why we need to use technology

Since the dawn of man we have looked for more efficient ways to manipulate our environment, we have developed new technologies that help us to work, record information and communicate. With every new information the world is changed forever. New technologies effects economics in nearly every field that affect what we do in our leisure time, they affect how information is shared. Technologies can improve our lives, they can light our way to a better future. HOWEVER, if we don´t adopt or adjust to new innovations we can get left behind. Technolgy is changing fast, new technological innovations are occurring everyday. THEREFORE, it's important our children learn how to use this new tools, we need to invest in the tools, training and infrastructure to engage students in learning tasks that emphasize creation, manipulation, innovation and are appropriate tools for active engagment in authentic learning tasks. The studets  are ready " we need to engage them or enrage them" they want to learn, they want to learn with the tools that will shape their future.
We need to be there to help them learn how to critically analize information, we need to be there to make their experience with these tools safe, we need the tools to make this happen

parts of speech

parts of speech

Traditional grammar classifies words based on eight parts of speech: the verb, the noun, the pronoun, the adjective, the adverb, the preposition, the conjunction, and the interjection.

Each part of speech explains not what the word is, but how the word is used. In fact, the same word can be a noun in one sentence and a verb or adjective in the next. The next few examples show how a word's part of speech can change from one sentence to the next, and following them is a series of sections on the individual parts of speech, followed by an exercise.

Books are made of ink, paper, and glue.

In this sentence, "books" is a noun, the subject of the sentence.

Deborah waits patiently while Bridget books the tickets.

Here "books" is a verb, and its subject is "Bridget."

We walk down the street.

In this sentence, "walk" is a verb, and its subject is the pronoun "we."

The mail carrier stood on the walk.

In this example, "walk" is a noun, which is part of a prepositional phrase describing where the mail carrier stood.

The town decided to build a new jail.

Here "jail" is a noun, which is the object of the infinitive phrase "to build."

The sheriff told us that if we did not leave town immediately he would jail us.

Here "jail" is part of the compound verb "would jail."

They heard high pitched cries in the middle of the night.

In this sentence, "cries" is a noun acting as the direct object of the verb "heard."

The baby cries all night long and all day long.

But here "cries" is a verb that describes the actions of the subject of the sentence, the baby.

Greeting students

My dear students in this new year we are going to know many exciting things about English that may be you ignore, but the idea is everyone can understand everything in the best way, for that reason I need that you have a positive attitude toward the language and remember this is an important tool in your professional lifes.

What's your Learning Style?

I want my children to understand the world, but not just because the world is fascinating and the human mind is curious. I want them to understand it so that they will be positioned to make it a better place. Knowledge is not the same as morality, but we need to understand if we are to avoid past mistakes and move in productive directions. An important part of that understanding is knowing who we are and what we can do... Ultimately, we must synthesize our understandings for ourselves. The performance of understanding that try matters are the ones we carry out as human beings in an imperfect world which we can affect for good or for ill.

VISUAL
Visual learners take information best with their eyes. They love to watch someone else do something before they try it themselves. They love colour and are typically organized. Visuals often maintain a neat appearance will use visual language when they talk..."I see"...."Imagine"..."Look at this."

AUDITORY
Auditory learners use their ears to take in information. They love to listen to others and often like to talk a bit themselves. They need to talk with others to cement what they are learning and are easily distracted by noise in the learning environment. Auditory people use language like, "I hear what you're saying"..."Listen to me".

KINESTHETIC
These learners need to move their bodies to keep their brains fully functioning. Most kids in a classroom are highly kinesthetic and have a hard time sitting and listening for long periods of time. Use body shots and frequent state changes to keep them alert and to manage behavior. Kinesthetic people dress with comfort in mind (loose) and often use language like, "I feel tired"..."Can I try that?"
