NEW YORK

From my point of view, is better New York than London because of:

-         

       - If we go to New York, we will be there almost fifteen days, but, if we go to London, we won’t stay there more than a week. 

      - In New York, there are much more activities to do, such as going to Central Park, to the highest skyscraper, to an amusement park, to a lot of museums (there are free, not like in London) , to Wall Street, to the liberty statue, Times Square…

-       - If we go to New York, there is a possibility of doing an exchange with Murrow’s students.

-           -  The weather is better in NY than in London.

-          -   I think all of the people should visit NY once at least, and this is a nice opportunity for visiting it.

CULTURAL DIFFERENCES!

I was searching for them the other day and I have found a lot of them, but I'm gonna put here only those ones that impressed me most!

- If you are in Turkey, you won't do the OK sign with the hand because it means "anus", so if you do it, you are calling gay the other person.

- In Arabia, if you are scratching your moustache, it means you want to have sex with the other person.

- If you are in Germany and you have just eaten in a restaurant, you should give a 10 % tip, if not, it's considered as impolite. Sometimes, they take it without asking to the client.

- Be careful if you go to Asian countries, because moving the head from one side to another means yes, not like in Europe.

They're crazy, they do everything the other way round!!

I WILL MISS YOU!!

Hi mates! I'm veeery happy because I'm at the same class that the last year, with different teacher, but with the same classmates! I'm a little bit sad because this is our last year here, and the next course we will go to different high schools and our class is going to separate.
I hope we are going to achieve a lot of things together in our last year!! Good luck this course mates! BFN ;)

HANDBALL
-GENERAL WARM UP:

At first, we will run for five minutes more or less. Then, we will run side step.
looking to the left and to the right. Then, we will run backwards for 1 minute. We will run
making circles with our arms, forwards and backwards. After that, we
will do skipping. Then, for the general warm up, we will play "tag". In this game,
two people are it, and they must each catch another person. If another is caught, he is  it, and he/she must catch another person and so on...

-SPECIFIC WARM UP:

For the specific warm up, we are going to stretch the arms and the legs.
Afterwards, we are gonna work in pairs. Each pair must take one ball. The pairs
must run while they pass the ball each other, at first with one
hand, and after with the other. Furthermore, there is going to be one person from
each pair on the wall, and the other must throw the ball, and the other must try to
catch it.

-MAIN PART:

There are going to be two matches, in one of them, girls are going to play
, and then, boys are going to play. When the girls are going to be
playing, the boys, in pairs, are going to pass, and vice versa.

-COOL DOWN:

We are going to run, and progressively, we are going to decrease the speed
over five minutes, and then, we are going to walk for two minutes more. Then, we are going to do articular movements and we will stretch during for two or
three minutes.

MY INVENTION

It was invented by Antonio Meucci in, but it was patented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876.

It has revolutionized the life of millions of people. In the last years, it has improved a lot. All the people have got at least one. People usually use it for calling people, sending messages, for chatting via Whats-App, for playing games, knowing what is happening to people (friends or famous people) ,listening to music, knowing new people, etc...

Nowadays, there are a lot of different brads, like Samsung or Apple, and from my point of view, it's one of the most important inventions in the history.

Have you already guess what invention I was speaking of?
