Is internet a better invention than books?


I think Internet is the most important invention in the world. I was created in 1960s during the Cold War, it was called Arpanet. The US army used it to communicate with each other quickly and secretly. Before that, they used telegrams but it was too expensive and slow. On the other hand, it was safer than now because nobody could hack it.

I choose Internet instead of books because books are so heavy that our backs hurt althought books don't damageour sight.
Another positive point of Internet is that you download books freely or really cheaply and from any part of the world although sometimes they are incomplete.

Anyway, I choose Internet because it can always be improved so maybe, one day, we will have our school books in tablets and our backs will be healthy.

Neferu Aton Nefertiti



Nefertiti was known as ´´a beautiful woman has come´´.

She was born in Tebas, Egypt around 1370 BC. Her father was Ay, an important Pharaoh so she grew up in the palace with all her cousins. That was because the family wanted to keep the royalty between their own DNA.


She was very important  because she prohibited he cult of Amon and replaced Tebas by Amarna.

Amarna was a city made for Nefertiti, Akenaton and their daughters to worship Aton.


She didn't depend on the Pharaoh and without his opinion she did a serious mistake. She changed polytheism to monotheism. The Egyptians didn't like this change so one day Nefertiti disappeared around 1330 BC.
Nowadays, nobody knows what happened to queen Nefertiti.

29016 Málaga
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to ask for information about the possible lottery projects.
Málaga is not as big as other cities but there are a lot of interesting places for young people. However, there are not any places for elderly people. For that reason, I would like to build a sports centre for them, There, they could meet each other and do different activities such as swimming, aerobics or zumba.
I would be grateful if you could send me a budget of this project.
Yours faithfully,
Marian Arrugaeta

How will my life be as a blind person?

If someday I have an accident and I become blind, I think that it will be fatal to me, I mean psychologically.

At first, I'll have to learn Braille and it might not be easy. Then, I'll have to learn how to do the same things but in another way such as watching a film or doing sport. And I will have to learn maybe the most difficult thing, learnt to trust in people.

But what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger, I think.


Anne Frank


Anne Frank was born on 12th June  1929 in Frankfurt , Germany.
She had an elder sister called Margot, her dad called Otto Frank and her mother called Edith.

In the beginnings of the second World War they had to leave Germany and go to the Netherlands.

Later in 1940, Germany invaded the Netherlands and the family had to go into hiding until 1944 when they were arrested.

Margot and Anne died in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp , but her dad was still alive so he published his daugther's diary.





Story of a crime.

One day I was lost in the centre of Fez in Morocco when, suddenly , I saw a lot of policemen so I decided to ask them how to go back to the hotel. but when I arrived near them, they were staring at a colourful building.
I felt scared because there were two men in black clothes with guns so I went back to a corner, I took a photo when nobody was looking at me and I called my parents.
The next time I saw them, they were in the TV news, the police got hold of them.

Forum about mobile phones

Supermum. 8th of may 2015, 15:46

Hi, I am worried about mobile phones I don't know if I should give a mobile phone to my daughter. Could you give me advantages and disadvantage?

Ipdroid. 9th of may 2015, 16:29

Hello, like everything in this world, one thing can be good or bad, it depends on its use.
There  are a lot of  advantages:
  • You can communicate all over the world.
  • You use it as an emergency device.
  • And we can get information easily.
But there are also bad things:
  • Parents can not control them, so teenagers can contact people they shouldn't.
  • And they also emit radiations thay are not healthy for us.
So My conclusion is that if you want to protect your daughter, you should give her the mobile phone but, first of all explain to her how it can be dangerous.

The Bulb




People have used fire for thousands of years.
Before there were bulbs, people used lamps with oil, but this was very dangerous and didn't lighted up very much.
In the 19th century an inventor called Thomas Edison invented the first bulb.
Eventually another inventors improved it.
Finally, these days all the people use bulbs there are many different kinds and with different intesity, yellow colour, disco or low consume.

Universal Declarations of Human Rights

The four artichle says: No one has the right to treat you as a slave not should you make anyone your slave.
For example , a man in Seville works 74 hours per week when he only signed an agreement of two days per week.
And the salary was of 625€ per week,
So this man reported this company and went to court.
And I thought he won the trial.
Also the fifteen article says. (1) Everybody has the right to a nationality.
(2)No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his nationality.
But this does not always happen.
For example, a women from Morocco, shae's thirty-two years old and she has live in Spain, according to the law, for seventeen years but the Spanish High Court don't want to give , the Spanish nationality to the woman because she doesn't know where "Almeria " is in the map.

My favourites

I don't like clothes but if I have to choose I will choose my light blue sweater.
It's very warm and comfortable I use it for school.

Also, I like my terndy linght green blouse I use it for parties.

And my number one is my black and white stripped pair of pyjamas.
They are so comfortable and I use them for summer holidays.




My dream came true.


Two years ago I was going to the centre of Madrid in Spain when, suddenly, I saw a lot of cars coming to me.
I was afraid but then I saw Katy Perry get off the car so I was very excited because I had never seen a famous person. She waved at me and gave me a photo of herself. That was a good day.

Last week there was a special event in our square called Green Peace Week.
It consisted basically on throwing out our rubbish into a special rubbish bin and finally, we had 12,064 of rubbish so the people showed how much they cared about recycling. It was a good day because then we had a party and we cleaned up the park.

Strange story...

12/10/2014

One night, five year ago, I had a strange experience, I was sleeping in bed when I felt a hand touching my hair then I turned to look but there wasn't anybody.



I was afraid so I turned on the lights, I opened the door and I saw my room, but I didn't see anything. Ten minutes later, I went to the living room and I fell asleep there.

In the end, I woke up on the sofa and I heard a noise in the kitchen, but there wasn't anybody, only a bird.

I told my parents but they said it was a dream. Maybe they were right...

Visit to Málaga's Port

9/10/2014

-What's Málaga Port?  The Port of Malaga is a Spanish seaport located on the Bay of Malaga, and in the south of the Iberian Peninsula, in the western Mediterranean. It is a commercial port, passenger, cruise and fishing port.
What did we see at the port?
There we saw a white lighthouse, many ships, the Palm of Surprises, container cranes, many bollards also we saw the auxiliary ships and fishing boats, the cathedral  and the Alcazaba.

     


-The Alboran Sea:
A) Write as much information as posible about the origin and history of Alboran sea:
The Alboran Sea, formerly called "Sea of ​​Granada" - is the westernmost part of the Mediterranean Sea.
Its boundaries: north, the mainland coast of Spain, on the south, the African coast of Morocco and Algeria to the west, the Strait of Gibraltar, which connects with the Atlantic Ocean and the east, in general, an imaginary line that goes from Cape Gata in Spain, to Cape Fegalo, Algeria, west of the city of Oran . The eastern boundary is not always maintained, as sometimes is also considered the meridian passing through Cape Palos (Spain), for example, so does the weather service of Italy in their newsletters
B) Talk about the different people who have been connected to the port throughout history:
 Phoenician Port:
The city of Málaga was founded by the Phoenicians of Tyre , in the ninth century BC . These established a trading colony in order to exploit the many natural resources .
