Finished the semester!

Is finished the seconds semester, always is very short and the national holiday and other holidays they does more short this semester. in general this semester went not difficult, but  the subject that more I find difficult is English four and I wait for to pass the subject because I suffer all the semester with this subject and  I  would pass the subject already that I would finish English at the university.   

In this semester what I liked most were the video, record me  speaking for two minutes, I It seemed impossible but first I wrote the that  had to say and then I listened the pronunciation and then I learned. Was very entertaining but I had record me single because when someone me recorded I had laugh attack.  With the blogs I discovered that I knowed more than he thought and that I not as difficult to write in English and I discovered I started thinking about English, this was very exciting. 

The aspects I need to improve...I think that even I have difficult with the English above all in the listen the conversations, I have difficulty understand when I speak me, I need to improved this aspects. Recommended me for improve this aspect see television series in English and try understanding of dialogues.

Outside the English class I not used much the English, a somewhat in the computer software and in internet, in the summer I use more the English than in the winter because in the summer holiday I travel  to Easter island to visit my boyfriend and work in the restaurant of her cousin and the tourist generally speak English.

Of all forms in the future I like take a course of the English with more calm and dedication for learn. Of all forms in the future I like take a course of the English with more calm and dedication for learn and fill the emptiness that even I have.

Teacher Gabriela Mistral!

Gabriela Mistral is very famous for his poems and receive the Nobel prize of literature the 10 of December of 1945, but I go to write of  Lucila  De Maria Del Perpetuo Socorro Godoy Alcayaga the teacher and her connection with the education.

Gabriela-Lucila born in Vicuña in the north of Chile in a family consisting of her mother Petronila Alcayaga, her father Juan jeronimo Godoy and her half sister fifteen years older Amelina molina. Her father Jeronimo  and her half sister  Emelina were teachers. His father also wrote poems for your small Lucila, with this antecedent we can understand as Lucila-Gabriela developing these talentos that even keep her legacy.  

The first teacher of Lucila-Gabriela and the only teacher in the formal education was her half sister amelinda in the school in the city Montegrande, she her mather and her half sister lived in a house right next at the school, in her prose she write how happy I was in those years.

To the fifteen years his mother says that  to Gabriela that  need help economic that  shall work and how her father and half sister were teacher she also could to be teacher or to teach read and write to the small childrens.    

For its time had an vision very constructivist of the education, she recognized that the childrens have is the centre of learning and that the teacher have to is educate always. She worked in schools of different places of country from Antofagasta to Punta Arenas, Barranca, talcahuano, Coquimbo, also in other countrys how Mexico where was minister of education.

 She was saying that be poet was his lateral trade, that before poet she is teacher.

I care the environment?

Hello in the post today is about the care environment...

Day to day we see how the environment was dirtying by the irresponsibility of many people and industries that not care of the environment and how affect his actions in the planet earth.
Some time ago it has created more conscience of the care of the environment and the naturals resources as for example the water.  Today exist more forms and places where to teach as care the enviroment, for example in my practice in  kindergartens and schools I have seen as the teachers teach to childrens different forms to care of environment and also to  ways of signifying their environment.  I have always recycled because my parents from girl teached me to throw trash in the collector or  save in pocket until arrive to house.

I have always recycled because my parents from girl teached me to throw trash in the collector or  save in pocket until arrive to house. also to separate the paper of the glass and put the peel of the fruit in the plants as fertilizer. I have always used public transport since I have no car, but my mother my was leaving in bike in to the schools and now I use the bike in generally  although I love walk. formally I not belong to none eco-organizations, but always support the causes as " Patagonia without dams" or "Save the Arctic", I go to marches and I signed, but not I have time for join to the organizations because I study and work.

I think in the santiago missing the responsability of the government because for example I have recicled but the garbage truck seal all waste and the big industries pollute without receiving any penalty.

David Paul Ausubel!

In the post today I will write on a psychologist and pedagog that to marked my carrera because of his theory of the "meaningful learning". He is David Paul Ausubel was born in 1918 New York, study in the New York university and was a follower of Jean Piaget. In the moment when the Bruner theory  gained strength based on discovery learning, Ausubel thought that this was not only important but also the learning styles of reception, he thought  that learning could be acquired by discovery and reception according to certain rules. The important thing is to obtain a "meaningful learning".

               

the "meaningful learning" is the more important discoveries of Ausubel, this  "meaningful learning" is a learning that is achieved according to certain characteristics:

Significance logic of material

Psychological significance of  material

Favorable attitude of the student

For example for to achieve a "meaningful learning" they must first to rescue the "previous knowledges" asking to the childrens that know of butterfly, they will share her experienced, later, beginning  of the experienced of the childrens we organize the new knowledge

I think is very important this knowledge and i believe that is a deficiencies of the school, the  learning  is not meaningful for the childrens.  are  learning decontextualized and aliens. 

with this information we can create the environment necessary for that childrens can development this  "meaningful learning"  and the education to have more sense. 

The piece of news: Pre-school of thought!

The piece of news I chose is  about of a program of the "Westminster Children's Society" (WCS); this program is about, a form of combater the racism in the children's, as that was discovered that children’s develop racist thoughts from three years.  How they do? In the classroom the elementary teacher and the children’s turn on the computer and they begin to send instantaneous message to Iceland.  The children’s asking about where are the penguins? Or how is the beef of the shark? This help to the children’s to know about customary of others places and tolerate the is different. 

The WCS runs 15 community nurseries in the London borough of Westminster, this is a fundation social and charitable for this the profits it makes are reinvested in new materials for the community nurseries.

The WCS not only cares of the childrens also of the parents more poor and workers, by providing community nurseries where leave their children meanwhile works Also  provide certified, vocational training to his staff.

Also are financed asking for monthly payment to the parents with more resources for to finance the parents with less resources and single mothers, is as Robin hood “we rob the rich to support the poor"

The parents say:  "There are a few private nurseries in the area, but they're nowhere near as interesting as this one. It's good value for the service. My child's really happy and has developed really well.
