Bullying;





The bullying is when one pupil is ill-treated for one o more pupils again and again..


Now is one thing more usual in the schools. There are cases more serious, because often the friends, or adults, don't know that the boy/girl is suffering, because she do it in silence..
And this is what no it's advisable do.


The ill-treated has five characteristics:

1. The aggression can be physical or verbal or with the relacionships..
2. There is a imbalance of power. Because the person that is suffering, usually is weak and the bad person, usually is popular.
3. The victim is no defend, and no talk with anybody of the subject.
4. The bullying is something that isn't only one day or two, is during a long time..
5. The aggressor says that he/she doesn't do nothing..


There are diferents types of ill-treated:

Physical:

Direct ~> To hit, to threaten with weapons..
Indirect ~> To hide, to steal, to break.. objects or possesions.

Verbal:

Direct ~> To insult, to mock, to put a bad nickname..
Indirect ~> To talk bad things about someone, to concoct a rumour..

Social Exclusion:

Direct ~> To exclude, don't let participate to someone in some activity..
Indirect ~> To ignore..



There were cases very importants.. Boys and girls even to commit suicide, it's very impresionant, but it's true. People that not toletare more and pass what pass..


My opinion ..*


I'm against of the bullying.

People that do this be a mental case.. Because do this to children is very important. And it's not normal..

I don't know what's the hell that they thinking. This people, if when they're small are of this way, when they'll be adults, I don't know what will be..

The Desert of the Sahara is situated in Africa, is the bigest of the world. It has a extension of 9.065.000 km².

The Occidental Sahara is in the occidental extreme of the Desert of the Sahara.

The Occidental Sahara, beginning was of Spain, but after decided leave it. And then the Occidental Sahara passed to be of Marruecos. Now is of Marruecos, but no all the territory.


In the Occidental Sahara there was a problem, (and now too). Because the people that life there, the Saharauis, have a low level of life. The haven't something. They was expel of his towns, and they finished living in the Sahara Occidental. And they can't go out of this country.
Also, they live in a campings of refugees.

Saturday

FALLAAAAAAS!



Fallas is a typical celebration of Valencia. When Valencia is in Fallas, is a continuous party, because: the streets are cut and you can walk free, everynight there are night festivals, also there are concerts, people throw firecrackers.. <-- This is the city council's falla*


In reality, the day 19th of March is the day of everybody have holidays, but children in the school have holidays this day, and two or three days before that.

The 19th of March is the last day of Fallas, and is the day that every falla is burn.

The fallas (esculture) are escultures that make the artists falleros, and the last day burn, this is called "La Cremà". <-- La Cremà*


There are a small falla (for the children) and a big falla in each casal.

The casal is the place that are the falleros in fallas, where do all the dinners, and the parties, the dances..

In each casal there is a "Fallera Mayor" & a "Fallera Mayor Infantil", and the boys are the presidents.. Those persons are the more important persons in this year.

Also is the day of the "Ofrenda".. The falleros & falleras walk to the "Plaza de la Virgen" and put flowers to make a virgin. And do a route for Valencia. <-- Those are the faller@s in the ofrenda*

Every day, the falleros do a "Mascletà", this is a firecracker. And is very loud.

And one night is "La nit del foc", and do a firework display very nice. <-- This is the firework display in La Nit Del Foc*


The last years there is a problem with the prizes, because every year win the same fallas. Because some fallas, and people of those, spend a lot of money in the esculture and always are the bests. And the small fallas now haven't got emotion to win.



FallaS in

Escuela 2 ..*

In the school, we do one falla. In the Semana De (this year has been of the SOStenibility) there aren't classes, and we do activities related with the subject..


This year, we made the falla with sostinibilities things (cloths, timber, ecologic paint & things like this.) And the day before the holidays, come to the school a fireman and burn the falla..


Also, with the hose throw water and we end wets. This day is very funny!
<-- This is the falla of the school of this year*

Saint Valentine'S Day*


Saint Valentine's (or the Day of the lovers) is the day of the love.

It is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other..

Is the 14th of February..

Usually people give a present like a love letter, some clothes or a bunch of roses..

The celebration of Saint Valentine was declared for first time in the year 458 from the Papa Gelasio I.

Also, some people think that this day is only for the big stores to earn money, because this day people buy a lot of presents..

Second Life*


Second Life is a new computer game.. Is in 3-D.. Is similar to "The Sims", but this is in Internet.
In this game you design your life..


You make a character however you like.. Also, you decide where you life & like this a lot of thing..
For have some things, you must buy it with real money.. You must eat, drink, go shopping, sleep, work, have a shower.. & all things that you do in the life..
You meet people and talk with them..
Three millions of persons are users of this virtual game..

I think that.. is a little bit exaggerated, because in this game you forget of the real life, and you to get into a bad habit..
Also, is dangerous, as a lot of things of Internet, because you meet people, but you don't know who they are..

ETA_ A bomb attacK- Cease fire is finished {!!}


ETA was broke the Stop Fire that started 22th of march 2oo6..

The 30th of December 2oo6, the terrorist band made an attack {they put a bomb car} in the T4 of Barajas's airport..

ETA didn't want kill anybody {but I think that for they this is not very important.. } , but in the attack there was two victims.. And a lot of damags..

Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero declared:

"With violence there isn't dialogue, any dialogue"

Also, ETA announced that the Stop Fire finished, but they can make attacks..



My opinion about this*
I think that people that can do this are very, very
C R A Z Y!!

It isn't a normal thing, it is obvius..
But I don't understand why they kill innocent people..
Because the things DON'T resolve making attack & killing people, and nothing similar..
Because whatever, don't achieve of this form..

Sunday

..Green House Effect*


The greenhouse effect is the rise in temperature that the Earth experiences because certain gases in the atmosphere (water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and methane, for example) trap energy from the sun. Without these gases, heat would escape back into space and Earth’s average temperature would be about 60ºF colder. Because of how they warm our world, these gases are referred to as greenhouse gases..
The greenhouse effect is important. Without the greenhouse effect, the Earth would not be warm enough for humans to live. But if the greenhouse effect becomes stronger, it could make the Earth warmer than usual.
Even a little extra warming may cause problems for humans, plants, and animals.
<~This is what happened..

[High School musicaL]
I'm going to do a summary about the film "High School Musical"..
The film starts in New Year's Eve, Gabriella Montez (Vanessa Anne Hudgens) & Troy Bolton (Zac Efron) (the main characters of the film), sing in a karaoke.. They met that day.

<-- This is the first song that they sing..

After Christmas Holidays, Gabriella change of school, and is the casuality that is the same school that go Troy.. There they see again. Darbus, the drama teacher propose do a musical. Every year, Sharpay (Ashley Tisdale) & Ryan Evans (Lucas Gabreel), two brothers are the main characters of all the musicals.. In the prove, the people must sing this song -->

Sharpay & Ryan sing, and they're selected. But after Gabriella wants take, and she say it to the teacher Darbus.. Troy say that he'll sing with she. At the end, they are preselected too..

Troy is the leader in his basket team. But he don't wants be only the basket's boy, he wants to be only a boy...

Gabriella loves maths, but she don't wants be of the Maths' team, because she wants before meet the school.

In the middle of the film, Troy & Gabriella, make the song, with help of Kelly, the composer of all songs.

With some problems, Troy & Gabriella achieve his purpose, be they the main characters of the musical. They get this with this performance -->

Also, Troy win the basket's match, and Gabriella the maths' decathlon..

--> All the film is about a musical, but this musical isn't in the film.. And I think (and I hope.. ) that they'll do "High School Musical 2"..
