Writing 05

Dear Granmum, 

I´m writing to you to thank you for your advice about making new friends . Making friends isn´t easy. You know what I am like. I felt really lost at first, I didn´t know what to do when I was nex to a new partner. Now I make a lot of friends in my class and even I make best friends. First I told to a partner my problem, and now, he has been helping me a lot.

He introduced me to is friends, and they behaved well with me. At first, I found it difficult to join in. Your advice of talking some topycs and ask questions worked. They´ve showed me the town , we played videogames and I´m feeeling realy happy now!

Lots of love,

No more pollution in our cities, please!!!

Comment 13

In our days, pollution is one of the most important problems we have. It can be produced by a lot of reasons, and we can´t stop it, we only can produce less pollution. There are a lot of people that they don´t realize that produce a lot of pollution, which can cause many problems too.
The reasons that we pollute a lot of is that all of us use the cars and in some occasion we can go to the place taking public transport, by bike or even walking. But we don´t think about it because it is more comfortable going by car and park in the door of the place.
Here in villages there are much less pollution than in cities, here we still have clean air, but it the cities there is a lot of pollution in the air, and for this reason if you are in a city you have more probabilities to have a health problem than if you are in a village.
In my opinion, we must decrease the use of car, and we need to use more transports like buses or even the bike.

Time to leave, Britons!! Brexit is here.

Comment 12

Two days ago the United Kingdom left the European Union because of the brexit. Brexit, which is what happened after the people that live in the UK had to decided whether to leave the EU or to remain to the EU. The result of the referendum was that they wanted to leave the EU and as it was their wish, they left the EU on 31st January.
However, despite the fact that the UK has left the EU, the EU has confirmed the English will still the official language of the European Union, because this is still the most spoken language in the EU.
The decision to leave the EU was taken after while, but the Primer Minister in the UK didn´t want to leave the EU, althought he was the one who organized all the election. It is for this reason that it has taken them such a long time to carry out the decision taken.
I don´t think that it was a great idea because it is always safer if the EU can give you for example medicine, food, and if the UK had a problem the EU could help it. But now the UK needs to do all alone because it doesn´t have the EU to help them. In Spain we have a similar case with Catalonia, they want the independence, but Spain doesn´t want to give it to them, and in my opinion Spain is doing well because I don´t think that Catalonia has all the necessary resources to do all the things alone.

NATURE could be the solution

Comment 11

Nature can be the solution of some illness because when you are with nature you can feel very relaxed, you can forget all the everyday problems, problems about work, about your studies... And for these reasons being surruonded by the nature can be the solution to some mental problems.
When you are stressed, for example you can go for a walk in a forest, have a look at all the trees, or you can go to the beach to swim or to see  the sea  waves of the sea, and these actions can help you with the stress and for a moment you can feel free and very well, and these actions are also called ecotherapy.
Ecotherapy is the different activities that you can do related with the nature, from climbing, hiking until activities that you can do in your house as gardening, and as I have just said, these activities can help you with some mental problems.
In my opinion ecotherapy is a good therapy to these problems and it makes people appreciate more the nature and to take more care of the nature. And sometimes I go to the beach to see the waves and to throw some stones into the water because it calms me down and I forget all my problems.
