1.       Write a short email to a friend telling him or her about your first year at college

(125-150 words).

Dear Lucy.

Thanks for the information about your experience an Infant Education school.

I’m writing to tell you about my first year at university in Ibiza. There are a lot of subjects and projects to do.

At the moment, were are preparing for exams and I’m nervous!

I want to be a good teacher like you and to have my classroom with my children.

One day, I worked in a Kindergarden with children from 0 to 3 years old, and I learnt a lot. I camed out art activities, for example painting finger and food, sing and dance too.

We were creative! But I prefer to be in a school because I like older children.

I think that teacher must forster group work, develop children’s imagination and creativity.

Do you agree with this?

Love and Kees.

2.       ITC is the future of education. Discuss (150 – 180 words).

Techology nowdays is changing our lives and education. There are different opinions about ICT:

On the one hand, there are people like it, because “it will be the future”.

Schools work with it. In the classrooms, children have their computer and do a lot of work with it.

Teachers can promote e-portfolios. This is a free program on the Internet that everybody can use. For example: in class all time students write their work on a blog, and we can share it with others. It can develop people’s creativity.

On other hand, there are people who disagree, because they prefer the traditional methodologies.

They think that the better way to learn is writing, searching for information in books, communicating with letters and not with computers…

In conclusion, I agree with this opinions because it is true that technologies makes children lazier. But its true that nowadays a lot of things are done with computers and the internet.

I like technology and I will work with it at school. Do you agree with it?

Dear Lucy.

Thanks for sending me an information to visit you, but at the moment can’t go to visit you and so that’s why I’m writing.

Write this email to explain my situation at this moment.

I am living with my parents in their house in Ibiza. Every morning, I go to the university and in the evenings I work.

As my boyfriend works and I too, we are thinking about buying a flat in Ibiza centre, because our jobs are in the same city.

This year I will be finishing my studies at the university and I will be a teacher in a primary school.

I’ve always wanted to be a teacher and work in a school, have own classroom, my children… and now it is going to become a reality.

So this is why we can’t go to Asturias. Now, we have buy furniture and pay more things.

I hope you will understand and not be upset.

Thanks a lot.

2.       Traditional methodologies are still better than modern methodologies.

(150-180words)

Methodology is a characteristic part of every schools, because it is a form of work education with children.

Nowadays, there are more school that work in a different way, because teachers use different methodologies.

First, there are professionals of education that agree with traditional methodologies.            They think that writing on paper, searching information in books and understanding it, is the most important in children’s education. For these teachers isn’t important.

One the other hand, there are teachers who disagree with traditional methodologies  and prefer modern methodologies.                                                                                                             These teachers work with projects. It is a form to working, learning and practicing skills.New technologies are another of tool students in education can work and use computers in class, become a blog and publish here those activities. In this way, children creative and intelligent.

In conclusion, I think that working with both methodologies is better for students,  because they don’t forget to write and learn.

                Do you agree with the idea form helps developing children’s skills?

WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO BECOME A TEACHER?

Buckingham Palace

TEXT OF BUCKINGHAM PALACE

Buckingham Palace is the official residence of the British Monarchy in London.

It is used for celebrations and important meetings. It is opened for tourist during the summer months. To visit the palace, it is necessary to buy tickets because the seats are limited.

The palace is protected by the royal guard which they are famous for their suits and shows that they offer to the tourist. Around it, there are big gardens where people enjoy taking a lot of photos.

One of the best knowns places of the palace is the royal balcony, where kings and queens go out to receive the visitors.

The palace is near other points of interest: Green Park and Saint James Park. If we compare Buckingham Palace to other palaces and British castles, it is more modern in all aspects.

This house has a big central block of three buildings and two smaller buildings more. Nowadays the palace is decorated with pictures of royalty over the centuries. 

COMPOSITION OF:

WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO BECOME A TEACHER?

When I was little and asked I was “what would you like to be?”, I told them:

I would like to be a hairdresser, because I liked to comb and wash dolls heads; a flight attendant, because in my childhood, I travelled a lot by plane and it’s a form of transport that I always chose to travel; and a teacher.

The latter, it is a profession that I have always liked since I consider myself to be a responsible, happy and a loving person, and apart from that I love children a lot and I have a lot of patience.

As I grew up, I saw that my life were children. My sister and I played as if I was a teacher and gave her a piece of paper to colour, I explained what I learnt at schcool, etc.

As she grew up, I could see what she was doing at school which helped me to decide my job. I understand how important is teaching and I like thinking about having been part of their education.

So, when I finished my studies at high school, I started a vocational course on Infant Education during two years. I learnt a lot of things especially when I did the practicum subject with children from zero to six years old in a nursery. I will never forget this experience.

When I finished I was sure about what I wanted to study Infant Education at the university. I hope I will become a good teacher.
