Why studying English?

Study English, don't see it as an obligation, give us suggestions, do your best, make discussions and do it by playing; this is not difficult, the thing is you need to pay attention and things will be better. You're on time, don't waste it, remember school time is the best and you will live it only once. When time goes away in a second, you'll give me the reason.

PERU, THE STRONGEST COUNTRY

Not only Pisco, Chincha and Ica were communities that suffered a disaster in Peru, but sometimes we forget that our country is a land where earthquakes are with frequency; do we need to be scared everyday thinking that something terrible will happen any day? what we must do during an earthquake is to calm down, don't think panic will help us, don't think you will save your life if you start crying, you must relax and think you can overcome it. If you were not at home during an earthquake, the first thing you should do is to call your parents inmediately, but if it is not possible, we must wait until the communication comes back, it is normal if telephones are out of order after an earthquake, but if you keep thinking of everything is going to be alright, it would be the best thing you could do.

"Calm down, try to find a safe zone, don't use elevators either stairs, if the earthquake is harder, cover your head with your arms and hide under a strong table but don't be scared because God knows why these things happen"

Respect your teachers

Respect, what does whis word mean? only consider people who are concerned about you... consider them and give love as you receive it.

What are you thinking when you talk to your teachers in a bad way? have thought if these people get upset? or if someone of them could cry because of your fault? I don't understand why a lot of people is like that, they need to remember they got parents and they're adults, too; so in that way they won't like other people are disrespectful with them, think the same because it's the same, your teachers could be your parents, your uncles or aunts, you must love them, you must love your teachers, they're people who help you a lot and who are going to be with you only if you want to count on them.

Besides teaching you, they are always concerned about you because they see you everyday, they see you more than 7 hours in a day, so it is so wonderful to have a relationship with that magnitude, it is so amazing, I like it when teachers and students don't argue, they have a good time and everyone looks happy. It would be so great but unfortunately is only something I want, there will always be students who don't respect, we don't know maybe who they are but what we really know is that they won't find these people anymore.

Lack of water

Water

We all know the water, and it's a benefit, maybe it's a gift, we feel good when we wash our hands and faces, or when we take a bath, when we drink it once we're so thirsty; we use it everyday, everyday and we all also know that if we have no water, we couldn't live; it's the most important thing in this world for living, but what do we really know about water?

• Water is the Universal Solvent, it serves in the whole world, and we're not using it in a correct way.
• It can be used as lubricant and helps in many situations.
• Water is so important in our health; as we studied, the 70% of our body is water.
• The water is 3/4 parts of the world, that's why we have lots of seas in the huge ocean, but only 2% of water can be consumed by life.

There are more reasons to know that there's happening a problem with water , lack of water is something true, we need to react, to realize we're wasting time and water, water that in the future will be necessary for us all the way. Take care of your life, take care of our water.

I speak English

Romina (13) is a peruvian teenager who attends English classes in Karol Wojtyla College, she says the most interesting part of learning English could be the Listening section, when she listens to some music and complete the blanks in practice sheets with her classmates; she laughs when all the class is making the pronunciation, in fact it is really fun but We must know that if We don't pronounce well, English won't be understood. As Romina, there are more people who at this age are learning the foreign language, knowing more vocabulary, getting along with grammar and the most important thing, learning by playing; movies is other skill in our school, if guys are lucky, they will see a cool movie, and it will be played in its original language, all the movies we play are american and in that way, students continue getting used to. English is easy, the think is that you have to like it.

Jordan and Enzo always help each other, they show us how important friendship is and how interesting is to share experiences and to be concerned about others, what we know is that in this moment they are best friends, tomorrow they will continue being best friends and in the future... This is for ever.

What does the word best friends mean exactly?

Opinions from people:

• Ryan, Boston

Best friend is one who comes forward to help in our odd times without hesitation. Stops us from comiting mistakes and bad and guides us. He is one who is ready to sacrifice his interest and time for us.

• Lois - Mexico

The definition of a true friends is 'a flower that stands for ever'

• Ernesto - Argentina

A best friend is someone who cheers you up all the time, who takes care of you and who will accept you as the way you are without asking you to change.

• Belen -Peru

A best friend will be the person who will always have time for you, he won't tell you i can't talk to you now because this person will consider you for all over the things.

KAROL WOJTYLA

Born: 18th May 1920 in Wadowice, Poland

Died: 2nd April 2005 in Vatican City

Pope: 16th October 1978 - 2nd April 2005 Youth of Pope John Paul II

Wojtyla was born and raised in Poland during a rare period of national freedom which ended, initially, under Nazi occupation, and then Communist rule. Instilled with a firm religious belief by his father, Wojtyla attended school and then Jagiellonian University, where he balanced studies with an interest in acting and religiously inspired poetry.

Early Church Work Wojtyla was ordained in 1946 and over the next few years wrote doctrinal texts, pursued a higher level of education, taught Catholicism and encouraged religious freedom. Pope John

Paul II Karol Wojtyla was elected as Pope in 1978, bocamming the third that year, and the first non-Italian to hold the office since Hadrian VI, 455 years earlier.

Towards the end of his life John Paul was affected by several health problems, including cancer and an ongoing battle against Parkinson's disease, but such problems barely dented his schedule. Indeed, in March 2000 the Pope made one of his most noteworthy trips, visiting Jerusalem, where he met Jewish and Muslim leaders and visited some of the city's most holy places. However, in early 2005 his health declined once again and, after a long struggle, he died in the Vatican on April 2nd 2005, aged 84.
