blog#4Reflection on Video

My reflection on the video is that it was pretty unusual to see a parent have their children learning like that. You don't see too many video's like this but, it was very helpful. The video helped me alot when I needed help in class so, I would go look at it during tutorials.It made my work in class a little bit easier and not as complicated. I liked the video a lot it showed me a good route on how to use the words and verbs.

blog#3Last Summer

From what I can remember, last summer I played AAU basketball. I have done that almost every summer but, last year my team was very good! We won a lot of games and lost to some good teams. My team almost went to every championship but, we couldn't win all of them, we worked hard to get where we wanted. As a team player I loved playing with my teammates, they were like my brothers and we never gave up on any play. I went to the pool a lot more usual too! Swimming to me is like freedom, I never gave up and it's a stess reliever to me too. Last summer to me was the best summer to me and I loved it!

blog#2 Description

I would say that I am a very relaxed person to hang around with. I like to laugh, go play basketball, and working at Nike in Smithfield, NC. I don't talk much while in class, sometimes! Sometimes I like going to school and sometimes I don't, it's just a on-going process that I hate waking up in he morning for.Also, I'm a Senior this year,too! I'm looking forward to graduating this year beacause I have came a long ways.I'm trying my all to do well in Spanish 2 even though it's a hard class. I think I'm doing way better than I was doing last year in this subject.

Current Event #1

    In August the Mexico soccer federation was trying to defend a doping decision. Five soccer players where found guilty for using Clenbuterol; a drug substance while in training camp for the Gold Cup. This made a bad reputation for all five players that are all surrounded by teammates, friends, families, and coach's. The Clenbuterol came from the players eating meat which they didn't know was contaminated at the time, which is also starting to be more frequent.  The Mexico Football Federation is ready to defend its problem to clear the players that all tested positve.
    Goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa, the defenders Edgar Duenas and Francisco Rodriguez, and midfielders Antonio Naelson and Christian Bermudez all were suspended during the Gold Cup in June but, were dropped from the team then later got their suspensions lifted.  This case is goin to be very long and expensive that the federation has to put up with.  The player's could face up two or four year's of suspension by the World Anti-Doping Code rules.  The president of Mexico has acknowledged a lot that Clenbuterol is a very big problem in Mexico and the drug is also used to make live stock look more bigger.

This semester I'm very determined to do better in Spanish 2. Last year I did very bad and did not prove myself. I'm also trying to get straight A's this year because I would be proud of myself when I graduate. My thoughts about blogging is that it's a good source to explain ourselves to our teacher to have a good relationship or to let teacher's see how well we participate. Yes, this is my second time doing a blog and it's a useful tool because we can get homework done at a faster pace. I just want to know how to progress and prove  myself to work harder; also how the  test would be made.

My goals for Spanish II are to be able to speak this language at a better degree and to understand what people are saying.My personal learnig style is using pictures, groups, and hand-on activities in class.I learned a lot in Spanish I but, dont remember much because it mostly didn't make sense to me.Spanish I was a lot to learn but I think Spanish II will be more work and fun to learn!!!!
