Reflection of all year

During the course, we have done a lot of activities in English. Some of them we had done before and others were new.
I think I have improved since Semptember, especially when I was writing composition. Before I didn't use the conenectors and now I used them a lot more, Sometimes I looked up words on the translator I have also learnt to order the sentences correctly.
The activities that have best shown my level of English are the blogs and the listening, but most of all the blog, Because I looked for information. In general I think everything has een useful , but some more than others.
I enfaged the language class room, because I could watch films and I could listen to the listenings with a friend, which is more enjoyable.

Valoration

Onu This presentation I made , but I will do my part on the valoration.In my presentation I used a power point with some images and with short sentences, and sometimes with words.I used resources relevant and photo focusing on the topic.The PowerPoint gave me a lot of support and helped me a lot.The timing in my presentation  was 4 minutes.This time I was very nervous, and I looked at my paper or at the power point, so I didn’t watch the audience very much. As in the power point, the important things were written.I sometimes gestured my hands. The ideas were in the order that I chose, because I spoke about a organization and information about the customs.I made the speech I without pausing. The information in my presentation in part I took from the internet.My presentation was about Onu, and the people who listened to me didn’t know the important things about this organization.I think that I used a correct grammar and a good vocabulary, my pronuntation was wrong, but in this presentation.I used a correct pronuntiation.I think that I will get a 5,5

Spain's oldest university is salamanca founded in 1218. Catalunya's oldest university is the one in lleida, which was founded in 1925.
Entry to university is by a special two-day entrance exam.
The taking of 'gap years' is rare in spanish education culture and most undergraduates in spain study at the university nearest to their home.
Semesters are between september and may, with most exams taken in june.
Degree courses consist of three cycles. The first cycle is diplomatura, with a total of 180 credits required to gain the qualification.
The second cycle is the licenciatura. The third cycle is research-based.
Spain has four different types of university: escuelas universitarias; colegios universitarios;facultades and escuelas superiors.
Undergraduate university fees in spanish public universities are generally much lower than in the UK.
according to EL mundo newspaper the following are the top five in the country: 1-Politecnica de Madrid; 2 Complutense de Madrid; 3 Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona; 4 Autonoma de Barcelona  5 Politecnica de Catalunya.
This article affects the people around me because most of them won't to go to university.
Personally I'm not sure if I want to you to university yet.
It is important to Know about public universities because the private universities are really expensive.
IN Conclusion IN my point of veiw I think that all universities should be public, so, that everybody has the chace to study what they want.

We haven't learnt respect the world

We haven't to respect the world because at this moment there are a lot of problems in the world, like the enviromental contamination and wars.
Moreover we haven't learnt to respec the people.  A lot of people have differents ways of seeing the world and perhaps they'll never respect the world.
Neverthess we think that this can e soved so, there are organizations like the Red Cross or te United Natios that wan to solve this problem.
Inspite of this , these oganizations are rn by very important countries in the world,so, they are everrun agnst them seleves.
On the one hand they are always helped by people if they have food, water medication etc.
As a resolt in the world there are a lot of injustices and people don't look after the world.
In conclusion I think that every body could do more to help toto conserve the world in which we live.

Film

The lord of the rings

This film is very exciting because there are a lot of adventures. In This film there are two boys who have to burn a ring but it is very difficult because other people want ring. At night is magic because when you put on the ring, you becoe obsessed.
First they get to place where they can burn the ring, after they have a lot of adventures and are nearly dies.
In my opinion it is my favourit film because in this film there are very good special effectsand in the film there are a lot of fights at the same time.
Furthermore this film shows you that anybody can be dangerous and even though you are little you can be brave. However strength is important.
In conclusion there are a lot of very beautiful places and a lot of things happier.
