¿Sos consciente del impacto que generas en el ambiente?

A lo largo del primer trimestre estuvimos trabajando con el medio ambiente. A nosotras nos toco presentar los actores y factores e investigamos un caso que se relacione con algunos de los términos trabajados.

Coco

Coco tells the story of Miguel, a boy who wants to fufill his dream of becoming a great musican as he become Ernesto de la Cruz, the most famus artist in Mexico. However, his family prohibits music and that is why he has to live his passion almost c;andestinely. Despite his great musical talent, Miguel can not convince his family to let him follow his passion, so in a moment he sees himself in the dilemma of following his dream or continuing with the tradition of being a shoemaker. Throughout the year, the Land o de the Living and the Land of the Dead coexist separately but, during yhe Day of the DEad, both lands come together. It is on this day that Miguel, through the guitar of his hero, unleashes the magic of the festival and is transported to the Land of the Dead, where he meets his ancestors who will help him return to his world.

Pixar movie is synonymous with great animation quality and Coco is no exception. Usually people had always taken a back seat in their films, so it was a challenge to animate the characters and give them personality according to the role they play in Miguel's life. As if that were not enough, in the Land of the DEad the work was even bigest since they had to be to build a city that would reflect  the history of Mexico and its inhabitants. The skull had to be able to show emotions, both in their expressions and in their clothes. The Land of the Dead is full of characters, buldings, colors and more of all those elements are a visual spectacle.

In my opinion Coco is one of the movies that I liked most about Pixar. I recommend it since it is a movie for all ages, also you can share a good time with your family watching and talking about it. In adittion, his songs are very catchy and cute.

Opinion personnelle sur l'internet

Écrit par Delfina et Martina en classe de Francaise

Pensez-vous qu'internet nous donne plus de liberté?

Pour commencer, nous pensons que l’internet donne l’opportunité de rencontrer nouvelles personnes, parler avec des amis et les membres de la famille qui ne sont pas avec vous aussi vous pouvez chercher des informations utiles.

Bien que parfois il peut être dangereux parce il y a personnes que prends l`information  de ta famille et de ta vie privée. En plus vous emmène hors de la vraie vie et du temps avec votre famille.

Mais cela peut arriver si vous ne savez pas comment l'utiliser. Aussi Internet vous donne la liberté parce que vous pouvez rechercher des informations et gérer comme vous le souhaitez.

Two different films

In this review I am going to put in contrast two films which I have encountered personally strongly different. The first film which I am going to analize is so great, with an awesome history and very carismatic and deep characters. The second film is an autentic horror for my eyes and a waste of time. This films are "The Schlinder list" and "2012".

The Schlinder list tells the history of a bussines german man, Oskar Schlinder, in the context of the second world war, all based in true historic facts. He was in the nazi party and he viewed the war situation as a bussines opportunity. However, he was horrified with the jewish holocaust, so he managed to take jewish people as employes of his fabric to safe them from the concentration camps. It's a really beauty and emotive film and Lian Neeson (Oskar Schlinder) really did a great interpretation. 

But in the other hand, we have the fiction film "2012" which is based on the possible "world's end" that was announced in the year 2012. Despite of the special effects, this film doesn't have nothing more left! It has bad interpretations, simple developing.

So, as you can have read, I would strongly encourage not to miss "The Schlinder List" and of course not to waste your time and money in "2012".

Skumdog Millionaire

Slumdog Millionaire is a drama film which was directed by Danny Boyle. The story shows the hard life of the poor people in India. The main characters are two brothers – Jamal and Sulim, and a girl Latika. The two boys don’t have a father and their mother is killed when they are about 4-5. Then an unfamiliar man finds them, begins to take care of them and a couple of other orphans, among whom is Latika. They are soon compelled to do things, they don’t want to and find a way to run away. But the story doesn’t end here, the 3 children begin to earn their living differently, only 3 of them get to know bad people and start to do illegal things. The most interesting thing about the film is that the story is presented through the TV show” Who wants to be a millionaire? “. Jamal answers all the questions thanks to his wide experience, which amazes everyone.

This incredible film shows us how different and hard some lives can be. It acquaints us with the culture if a distant country – India. We start to be more concerned about the situation in such countries.

The music and atmosphere in the film make us relive the story of the film. The actions develop fast and that is what makes it so intense.

“Slumdog Millionaire” is a movie worth considering, I strongly recommend it to everyone. With thid film you can discuss with your friends and family for a long time.

Students should think in a positive way

It is often that students should think in a positive way. They should be trained to think positively, this will help them to reduce stress, and thy will improve their productivity. In this essay i will talk about the level of stress that students have and hw to reduce it, also to improve their productivity.

To begin with, students should think in a positive way to reduce the high lvel of stress that they have. Also, this way they will promote happiness and will therefore improve students general well-being. In addition, students get stressed out because they feel they can not achive everything, because they do not have enough time. Eventhough some students will need more advice to combate the stress because these are not enough.

On the other hand, training students to thik positively will help them to increase their productivity. When students belive they can not achieve something, they will give up without even trying. Also it will help students to be more organized , and if they have the things more organized they will be happy.

To conclude, i can say that both arguments are usefull but the best is that you have to be positive because this will help you yo reduce stress, because it will improve your general well-being.
