Sports: Swimming

Swimming is an excellent all-around activity that exercises most of the muscle groups. It is a sport which is suitable for people of many different ages and fitness levels. To make this sport you need:

-Goggles for eye protection

-a bath cap

-a swimsuit

The bad things about swimming is that, like in every sport, you can get heart... in this one you can get am ear infection or irritation from water, or you can also get an eyes irritation from chlorine in the pool...

The good things are that like I said, it's a very complete sport... and another thing is that you can refresh yourselve if the day is warm... and if tere is a cold day out there... you can go to a conditionated pool...

I really like swimming and I have been doing it since I was a little boy... y really recomend it...

Bye!

Air Shows!

Air shows are one of the most popular shows ever made! They are shows showing planes making amazing maneuvers.they started after WWI and now they evolved into one of the most organized and popular shows ever.They are shows whre people see planes of all the countries making amaizing maneouvers over their own heads. Even though they are now very safe, before they were very dangerous to pilots and crows, having in one ocation been 93 people killed one a mig crashed into a crowd.
Air shows have been in history for 90 years and are beautifull and i recommend to go to one as soon as you can.

Sports

Surfing --Ivana Stam

Surfing is a popular sport in places which haves many beaches and a very good weather.there aren´t so many TV programs that cover it in Argentina,or in other cities where th weather isn`t very good , and don`have beaches,bu in places were suurfing is very popular, there are magazines and sports programmes tha cover it.There are competitions in where a lot ofpeople compete on,and the best surfers win a trophy.

The best side of surfing is that when the weather is very hot, you can get splashed with the water that spatters from the waves.If you practice a lot, you´ll win a trophy!

As like as other sports, surfing has its worst side.Sometime, the sea can be dangerous.If you go surfing when there is bad weather and dangerous wavez,you would prbably get out of your board and get hurt.or if there are rock(like in Mar del PLata), you can fall and throb seriously with the rocks.

In my opinion, this sport is very interesting and funny in summer times, in spite of i'm not good at all at this , and that people should take care when they go surfing.

Tennis, my favourite sport by Matias Gol

Tennis, is a very old sport which was born in England. However, there are tennis players all over the world. To play tennis you need a racket, a net, a ball, and a court, the court is were you play tennis. This sport can be played in pairs, it's a very popular sport because is for al ages and for men and women.

I think that tennis is good for health because on tennis you have to move quickly yo hit the ball and stay in the center of the court for recibing the ball on time.

Every good thing have a bad one, in this case tennis can hurt your body because of a bad movement or something, and you would have to put a bandage or in the worst case to be operated.

To conclude, i love playing tennis with my friends or parents and i also like watching tennis.

JUNK FOOD IS NOT GOOD FOR HEALTH
Created by Ivan Ara

Junk food may be delicius, but do we know what does it do to our body? Hamburgers have got more than 200 calories! every time we go to macdonal's we get 1 kg fater!
we should eat more often healthy food.
Eating good things can make us live longer, like apples or carrots.But eating french fries all the time is sick and gets you fat.

My favourite sport.

The football is one of the most famous sports in the hole world. It is played by two teams in a pitch with a ball.
It consists on putting the ball into the opposite goal, which adds an annotation.
It's a fascinating game which helps you to have a good fisic state, and to be healthy.
It also helps you in the social part, because you can share this hobby with another people and have a good relation.
On the other hand, you can hurt and make injuries, that could be very dangerous for your health.
To my mind, football is a very nice and creative sports specially for men, but female football exists too. It's very funny and interesting, and it's healthy.

learn how to use your time well

by: dylan nahmod

learn how to use your time well can help you to live in a more relax way.
if you organize your time you can take advantage of your free time and have fun or practice something you will like to know. ex: play an instrument, have acting classes, etc.
being bad organize of course is bad but also it is unhealthy. a bad organization makes you run betwen a place and another and living doing things fast is not good.

My favourite Sport: Hockey

By Yanina Occhiuzzi and Melina Fascetto

My favorite sport is Hockey. I practice it since I was 6 years old in my school.
This game has some thing positives, like all the soports, it that do exercise is good from the body.
Its similar to Football, but its plays with a hockey stick. The game consist to make a goal. Is more usual that womans plays. It a play with a teams, always about 11 women.
The negatives things, is that you can feel down running or beat other people with the hockey stick anf its produce you can't keep on playing. Also, the ball can jump and hurt you.
I think that hockey is an interesting sport and a game that you have to play in gruop, because if a player is not on game there is a problem to continue playing.

Girls: Remember this is an individual task. Also consider the requested layout (4 paragraphs, the positives, the negatives, etc... you can check in Unit 3). Repeat for next class, please

A guide to a happy life

By Yanina Occhiuzzi and Melina Fascetto

People often don’t talk about their problems or not allways express their real feelings. They
don’t talk with somewone becouse they’re worried and don’t have confidence with other
people, so they think that they’re going to tell somewone their problems or feelings. But it’s
wrong.
What they can do is try to express the feelings that they’ve in mind and’re worring them. They
can do it talking with other people like friends or family members. There’re also people that
work helping pople that have these problems. Their job is try to make that people forget
about that feelings or problems.


Some people laugh a lot. Sometimes becouse something is very funny, or sometimes becouse somewone makes you laugh a lot. Or probably is becouse you want to. It’s very healtly for our life it make you feel better. But you have to contol it, becouse you can be at the middle of an important exam or kind of that and it seems like you’re bothering. Sometimes can also hurt other people feelings. So you have to learn how to control the laugh. But it doesn’t mean that you can’t laugh any more!, you can do it, but you have tolook after the way you lahu and that’s it.

My favorite sport

Tennis is a beautiful sport. It is played in a court, with a racket, a ball and a net by two or four people.
It is easy to play. It can be played by a man, a woman, a boy or a girl. And there isn`t an age to play it.
If you don`t play very well, and you don`t run very fast, you can be hurt by the ball, you can fall down or you can be hurt by another people`s racket.
To conclude, it is a very popular an funny sport.
Vero Tcher

What I think of rugby as a sport

Rugby is a sport that is growing faster and faster in the world, even though it seems to be hard to understand. You have two teams with fifteen players each one. To play you need a pitch that has 100 meters long and 70 from a side to the other and you need a ball that has an oval shape.
It is a sport played by men and by women, even it doesn’t seem so. In this sport you make friends for the life and teaches you to respect an authority.
It also has a negative side, because if you have fear or you don’t know to play well you can be hurt by somebody in the other team.
I personally like it and I play it. Some people think it is a rough game but they are wrong. They have to play it just one to see it is not.

the sport of Alan...

I will talk about football.
Football is a very popular sport, mainly in Europe and America. It's a team sport that compete two teams with eleven players each other. Is played in tow halves of fourtyfive minutes each other. You can play leagues or tourtnaments , with your club or your nacion. You play it in a pitch with a stadium.

It's a very funny sports with many fans and many players all aorund the world.
It's a sport with easy rules so you can play it where you whant

But on the other hand, it's very violent, fans fight each other and many players get hurt

In my opinion it's a very funny sport, but fans may change they violence, and players too. I love playng it and many people in the world too, it's the most popular sport in the world

ALAN DVE

Football: My Favourite Sport

Football was born first in China. It was a game called Tsu-chu (tsu: feet chu: ball). Later, England converted the tsu-chu into soccer. They took ideas from the American Football and put it into the other game (tsu-chu). The game is played in a stadium, with a ball, and the ball has to enter into one of the two goals. Soccer is one of the most popular sports in Ámerica, Europe, Asia, and África because it is practiced and played very well, and it is one of the sports in the Olympic Games.

Football is enjoyed by all the people in all the world because the style of the game, because some things are really funny about it, and people of all ages, except babes, can play it.

This game, has bad things too. Playing it, a person can get hurt very bad; he can also die. It is very agressive. The audience can hurt other people (also from the audience) and go to hospital.

I think that soccer is the best sport because I like kicking balls, because it can be really enjoyed. Also, scoring goals is very appreciated by all the people and the audience who are watching the match. You may like scoring goals and celebrate them by shouting very emocionated, or you can make a dance.

SPORTS:surfing

Surfing is one of the most dangerous sports around the world for me. im afraid that if you fall from the board you may hit really hard against the water.

But there is a good side of this sport. It can be a relaxed sport couse you don't compete versus anyone, and its really nice to pass threw the waves and get inside the breaking of the wave.

The bad thing is that you have to be balanced to not to fall from the board and to be carefull with all the natural enviroment from the sea, couse when you surf, you have to go way away off the shore.

In my opinion, I think its a cool sport. It could be great if I could do it

Good luck, Jimena

I would like to do this sport!

The sport surfing is individually and you only need a board and go to the sea to practise it!
It's amazing and i think that it can be a great adventure.

You practise it in the sea, in the beach, and i think that it is a great way of relax and have fun.
You can go surfing with friends but each one have to take their own board.
In summer there are world cometitions of it.

It can be really fun but at the same time, it can be dangerous because there might be stones in the sea and you could get hitten. For that reason it is not a good idea for kids.

I've never tried this sport but if i lived near a beach i might do it because i love the sea.
I think that everyone should try it!

My Favourite Sport. Flor Beg

Skating is a sport where you have to express what you have learned, usually with a choreography with your favourite song, yourself or with a group.
To do this sport you need skates and go to a club with a teacher those teach you.
The best thing with this sport is that you relax and you can express your self with your favourite song movements or jumps.
It is not just show what you did, also you make friends and laugh when you do something wrong.
But the negative thing is that you can fall and hurt yourself like your wrist, and you can’t do skate for a week or month.
In conclusion this sport is very good, fun and healthy, you met people, you dance, jump, make figures. The best is that you are very good you can go to a competition and win a prize!

Skateboarding by Juan Ro

Skateboarding is a extreme sport wich began to be practiced a few years ago. you need a skateboard and a good place to practice it. You can skate in the street or in a skatepark, where there are ramps and rails to practice. You can skate whenever you want, you don't need a team, an specific place, or special cloths, you can just take your board and practice in the street. Its too hard too explain how it feels when you are on your board, you jump and land OK, its amazingly exiting. However, it's sometimes frustating to try days and weeks to land some trick and fail everytime. Like everyone thinks, skateboarding is sometimes dangerous, you can hurt yourself when you fall from a ramp or a rail but if you are careful and you know what you can and you can't do, you'll be ok. In my opinion skateboarding is an amazing sport, but it can't be practiced by everyone. You have to be really fearless and persuasive, to keep trying every time you do it wrong.

What I think about my favorite sport, DANCING

Dancing is like an artistic sport and it has special characteristics, like, wearing comfortable clothes, practicing it a lot, and, the most important, enjoying it. From another point of view, you have to love music, and the activity in general. Dancing gives you a lot of opportunities, too, like dancing in theatres and participating in shows. It's like a pacific sport, without any type of agression.

On one hand, this sport helps you grow up and get bigger and get your muscles stronger. It's a lovely sport and makes you a tallented person, if you do this sport, you have a new tallent.

On other hand, if you don't feel anything when you listen to the music, and you don't feel comfortable doing this, don't dance, do another sport. That's why when you dance you have to be sure that you want to dance. Although all the help it gives you, if you don't like it, you'll not feel any effect in your body. Be sure you want to do it!

As a conclusion, dancing is a friendly, relaxing and lovely sport. Everything you do, is okey. It isn't an agressive sport, and it helps you get your body stronger. You can try it, I think you'll like it! But remember, don't do it like an order, do it if you like it. Try to find a music that you like. Now enjoy the music, and let your body make what it wants.

Good luck!

Julieta Fri

My favourite sport

Tennis can be played by singles or in pairs, the most common type to play tennis is singles. To play it you need a racket, tennis shoes and a ball.The types of courts are usually grass, clay or a hardcourt of concrete and asphalt.
Tennis is not as agressive as kick boxing or tae kwon do, it is good for health and all ages can play it.
Also has his negatives points, because you need very well built body, and the equiptment you need to use (like the racket) are very expensive if you need a good one.
In my opinion, tennis is a very good sport to be concentrate and use your brain. I have been playing tennis for 6 years. Its my favourite sport

My favourite sport

Tennis is a very popular sport in all the world. You can play it alone or in pairs and you can sometimes watch it on TV. The winner is the player who wins 3 or 5 sets (depending on the tournament) or if the other player gives up. You need a racket, a ball, a net and obviously a tennis court to play it. The best players earn millions of dollars and are very famous all over the world.
This sport is for males and females and it is also good because it isn’t aggressive. Another positive thing is that in this sport you have to run and run and this improves your physical condition.
You can hurt yourself because it is a sport for which you need to be strong. Anyway it is a sport in which you get tired or exhausted because some matches are very long. A negative thing of tennis is that it is an individual sport and this is not good for social life. It is a difficult sport because you must be concentrated all the time.
My conclusion is that tennis is a difficult sport but it is very fun and nice. I like it because I started watching it when I was six years old and then I started playing it. Tennis has negative and positive things but I like it.

My favourite sport: tennis

I love all the sports but i preffer tennis. Is an international sport and you can play alone or in pairs. You have to win 3 or 5 sets. The equipment needed is a racket, a ball and a net.
Tennis is good for your health, it isn't agressive as football or boxing and is a male and a female sport so nobody have problems to play it. Isn't it a great sport?
Anyway, you have to be strong to play it and you can hurt your hand, your leg or something of your body. In spite of doing a lot of excersice, is very tired to play three hours the same match!
My conclusion is that you have a lot of positive and negative points, but tennis is a beautiful sport and that's why i love it. I recommend to watch and play it, because is one of the best sport of the world.

A different sport:football.

Football is a sport that is popular in South America and in Europe. Many TV programmes like ESPN, TyC sports, Fox sport, (etc.) show this sport. Football players earn a lot of money when they play in many parts of the world.
Sometimes it seems to be a violent sport because of the agression of the players. They usually tend to hit other players when they are furious. It´s also a bad sport because if a team loses, the fans fight with others and they get hurt. Sometimes the fans are paid to do it.
However, this sport helps people get healthier and when you play it, you get fun. It´s necessary to do exercise because of your health, and this sport is a good option.
To conclude, I don´t like this sport when it´s played with agression, but it is good to get fun and recover from health problems.

Alejandro Nes

What I think about swimming like a sport

Swimming is an individual sport. You need goggles so thay you can see better in the swmming pool an if you have long hair you will also need a cap.
One of the good things of swimming is that it helps to your back and you exercise all your body. Another good thing is that if you don´t like to swet is the perfect sport.
The bad thing is that it can be very exhausting. You need to take a lot of air and when you do these you get very tired.
I think that is a good sport but actually I have never liked it. For me is very difficult and when I finish my body hurts a lot.

BASEBALL: my favourite sport

Baseball is a sport played by two teams,
There are nine players allowed on a team at one time, however they can’t be all on the field at the same time. You are allowed nine field players. After that you have an overall of ten players in the game but only nine allowed on the field.
There are nine innings in a baseball game, or six at younger levels in which each team gets a chance to try and score as many runs as possible in only three outs.
The team that isn’t batting is playing defense trying to make those three outs so that the team batting doesn’t score any runs.There is an umpire behind the plate that lets everyone know if the pitch thrown was in the strike zone or not. If it was, then the pitch is a "strike". If it wasn’t, then the pitch was a "ball". When batting you get three strikes and four balls. If you get four balls before you get three strikes.

The good point:is better to go to the park and do some excersice than stay in home watching tv

The bad point: I like baseball very much but here in argentina there isn't teams to play and that makes it difficult to play it

JULIAN ROFFMAN

My Favourite sport

My favourite sport is voleyball.

You play it with a ball and a net.

In this sport you use your hand not your feet.

I like playing voleyball in the club or in the school.

I think that voleyball is a very nice sport to play.

You play it sometimes in 2 versus 2 or 3 versus 3.

Voleyball it isn't very known because they aren't many tournaments.

Voleyball players are not very known in the community.

An amazing sport: Basketball

Basketball is a very popular sport in the U.S.A and in Argentina. Basketball players earn lot of money and live in enormous houses. It is a sport played by 2 teams, 12 players each team, 4 quarters of 12 minutes each one. We can play this sport at a court with a 7 size ball. If you play you can't run with the ball on your hands.
It is a very healthy sport, because you have to run and jump a lot. Besides it is a team sport, so you can make friends and you can make it funniest.
But basketball has also some negatives things, you can be hurt when you want to take a rebound. You can also be sent off when you do 5 fouls or when you insult the referee.
In conclusion, I like basketball a lot and think it's a very interesting sport. But it would be better if nobody got hurt and more kids stop being addict to playsatio and computer and played more sports, these are very nice.

My favorite sport: Football

The football is a sport that you play in a pitch. In football there are teams, each team has 11 titular players. Fotball is played with a ball and the objetive is kick the ball and introduce it in the goal. The person who protects the goal is called goalkeeper.
There are positive things of football like that if you play football frequently you can get a good physic because you have to run a lot. Another good thing about this sport is that if you play professionally and you play very well the clubs will pay you a lot for playing something that you like.
Also there are negative things about football because someone can hit you properly or with no intention, but he can hurt you, another negative is that the fans can be crazy and be very aggressive with all the people.
For me football is a good sport for hobby and also for job because it is entertaining and I have fun playing it. The football is a good sport, and very healthy, because you are playing but also you are doing exercise.

By: Martin Slipakoff (2Q)

What I think about swimming like a Sport - Brian Fl

Swimming is a complete sport and very popular. It is done in a swimming pool. This sport is individual and it is placed in the Olympic Games too.

 It is a great sport because you do a lot of exercise. And because you do it in a swimming pool you don’t feel hot.

However, there is a negative side of swimming for example you can drown. And in this sport you have to swim very quickly because if not you lose.

To conclude, in my opinion it is a very complete sport because you do a lot of exercise, you don’t feel hot and to do it you only need goggles and a cap.

what I think about tennis like a sport

Tennis is a great sport that can be played by all ages. It has to be played by two or four people. It is a very popular sport. Newspapers, magazines and sports programmes on TV frequently cover tennis matches. Professional people that play it earn a lot of money.
This sport has negative and positive things. If we are talking about the positive part of tennis we can say it is a fascinating game, and help you to lose weight.
The negative part of this sport is that it isn’t a complete game and sometimes may turn violent when the players brake their racquets, and this can make some injuries.
To conclude, I love this game because it helps you to don´t think about your problems and it is a good spectator sport too.

By: Michelle Men

what I think about kick boxing like a sport

kick boxing is a very agressive sport. Some peolpe like very much it but many people, don´t like it.
If you do this sport you learn to protect yourself, but is not possible to not injured in a fight.
The kids don´t learn anything seeing this sport and if they are fans of kick boxing, they will be a bad example of a kid because they will be agresive.

What I think about boxing like a Sport

Boxing is an agressive sport. To play it you need gloves and a helmet. This sport is done in a ring.

Doing this sport you learn to protect yourself, but it's dangerous because you could be injured.

It's ageressive and it's a bad example for kids.
I don't like this sport because it isn't a good sport for woman and kids.

By: Mely Mus

What I think about cestoball like a sport

Cestoball is not a very known sport. To practice it you must have 2 baskets and a ball (is similar to basketball, but different.) There are two teams, with six players each
Cestoball is played by women. I like it so much because I think is a cheerfull sport where you have to give your best all the time and where you have pay atention everey moment and be prepaired to run.
But aniway, there is a bad side, it can be very agresive because in this game you have to get the ball before that anything and this means that is a contact sport and you can get hurt.
I love cestoball because is a sport that helps you to free all your stress, when I´m running for the ball or i make a good game, I feel fabulous. It´s a pity that allmost anyone knows this amazing sport!

Melisa Alt

What i think of Rugby as a sport

Rugby is a famous sport, not so much as others, but is still very funny and interesting. This sport , in a way, comes from football, I mean British football, but with some different rules and different pitch. Like, for example, the British football pitch is divided in lines, of 10 yards of distance between each one; while rugby's pitch is just a normal pitch with 2 lines that shows where it's each team score zone. Also, in football, is allowed to do everything you want to your opponent, while in Rugby, you can only grab him under the waist to do a "tackle". And, when someone want to throw the ball, in football you can throw it anywhere, while in Rugby you can't throw it forward, always backwards.

It has its good and bad things, like every sport. In the good things, it's very interesting and funny, and as it has many rules to make the match safe, you won't have to care so much of getting hurt. In the bad things, you should be very attentive, 'cause when someone tackles you, if you don't land correctly, you'll probably get hurt. Also, you have to memorize many rules, and that could really confuse someone.

In my opinion, this is a very funny, exciting game, that you shouldn't be afraid of, just be always concentrate and alert.

What I think about hockey like a Sport

What I think about hockey like a Sport
Is a very popular sport in Argentina, specially in women, Argentina’s team is very good, they are called “Las Leonas”It’s a team sport , not individual and it’s like soccer but with sticks , you can’t kick the puck, it’s fault.
Well, in the negative, like in other sports you can get hurt, but the difference here is the sticks, that may be hurt more. Another bad thing is that is a sport where you have to be a lot of time lower so you back sometimes hurts.
In the other hand it’s a very healthy sport because you move a lot. And it’s great fun, belive me , is fascinating,
Our final conclucion is that hockey is amazing and that it's a fun and healthy activity and well every sports had bad things we think it doesn't matter if you feel right playing it.

A guide to a happy life.

learn how to do something well. Sometimes people are afraid of doing something becausethey think they will not do it well. Those people sometimes wants to learn how to play an instrument and it could be the passion of their life but they don´t do it because of a fear of failure. And sometimes people don´t want to do any activity because of the fear of losing friends or not giving importance to other things. This is a pity because some of them are afraid of something that will never happened.

What I think of football as a sport

Football is the most populate sport in the world. If you want to play it you must have one ball and two goals. Football is played in a pitch. Each team have 11 players in the pitch.
Football is a emotive sport because when you score a goal or when you win a medal you are very happy. When you score a goal you feels very well and very happy. It's the most important feeling in the world.
When you foul other player, he will injure. Football is an agressive sport because some people fouls a lot.
I love football because the feeling when you play, when you win and when you score a goal. Football is fantastic. It's my favourite sport.

What I think of skating as a sport

Skating is an important international sport. Many girls and boys like to watch it or to practice it. They can skate in pairs groups or alone and there are many coreographies you can do.
Training this sport makes you lose weight and it is a very artistic sport. It is healthy and makes your body slim.
But it is also very hard and sometimes dangeorus (you can fall and hurt yourself). The tournaments are very few and demanding. Not everybody has the posibilities to compite.
In my opinion it is a very enjoyable sport but it should be more accesfull for other people. There should be more competitions and posibilities for everyone.

What I think about basketball as a sport

Basketball is one of the most popular sports in the world. It is about two teams of five players each one. The players have to drive the ball bouncing it and throw it to the ring of the other team. If the ball enters are 2 points for the team of that player.

Basketball is a very fun sport and brings many people together when they get together to play it. It is known in all the countries and when the world championship its played, people can watch it on TV. and the get very excited.

However, playing basketball can be very exhausting because you have to run a lot and keep your mind in bouncing and throwing the ball.

So, my final opinion is that basketball is a very fun sport, that can be a little exhausting. But I like it and I like playing it.

A guide to a happy life

People are often depressed because a bad thing happened to them. Things like have a fight with someone you love fail an exam or loose an object. A good thing to become happy again is to forget about that sad thing and laugh about a funny thing . You can ask people to tell you a joke , or think on one that you already know. You can also watch a comedy movie. There are lots of it. As soon as you realize that, you won`t be sad again.

A guide to a happy life

Sometimes, people think they aren't good at nothing, and that in everything they do, they do it wrong. They like playing something , but they are bad at it, so they stop doing it. And sometimes, people get mad with themselves because of this, and this make them get sad and stressed and make their lives unhappy.

So, to way resolve this problem is founding something you REALLY enjoy doing, and doing it. Like if you like playing guitar, but you aren't good, you should take lessons and practice every day until you start getting better and better with time and patience. Or if you love playing football or basketball, but you need to learn more, join a team or a club, sure, you'll start from the beginning, but, if you work hard, then you'll see how much far you can go.

But remember, you HAVE to be organiced, because an organiced person don't have to care all the time what he/she have to do and then you're angry because he/she forgot something. To be organiced is the answer to a happy life, try to be organiced and use your time well as much as you can, and you'll your life will be way much easier and happy.

Sorry, I forgot to upload it before.

A guide to a happy life

Some people don’t help others because they don’t meet that person or they don’t like her/his aspect. You see an old person trying to cross the street and you don’t help him. Somebody has a problem and you you don’t help he or she to solv it. To help other people is very important because someday you will need help too and if you didn’t help anyone before is probably that anybody help you.

Many people doesn’t know how to do something that is difficult for them well. You don’t practise in the school because you know it is difficult for you. In a job you don’t apply because you think you won’t do it yourself well. If you belive you can do it -I know this is easier said than done-, you’re well on your way.

What I think of football as a sport

Football is a very popular sport that people seem to be fascinated by. The maganizines, TV and the radio frequently cover football. The succesfull football players (as Messi and Ronaldinhio) are trated as heroes. This sport is played in a pitch and you only need a goal, a ball and, - of course- sport wearing.
I think the football is a fascinatibg game because it’s a very fast game. You always must be running, unless you hurt. In this game the abilty and the good look are together. In adition, it brings people together. Generally the people of the same team are very good friends or they meet at first in the pitch and make friends.
However, the football can be very dangerous. When a player (who didn’t do anything) gets sent of by the referi the people often gets very angry about that and they could enter the pitch and hurt the players or the referi. In adition, the injuries from one player to another can be very dangerous and they couldn’t be able to play for a long time or to never again be able to play.
To conclude I think football is a very fascinating game. It can be very dangerous and we have sufficient violence in the world I think. I’m personally not all in favour off football.

A guide for a Happy Life

Hello everybody!

We are Ezequiel, Julieta, and Ben from 2nd "A".


We decided to talk about 3 things that we think are the most important to have a good and healthy life.

The first of all, we thought that the health it's really important. Can we give you some help to be healthy? There are a lot of things, but somethings that you should do are: wash your hands before you eat, take a shower every day, and have your kitchen cleaned. That will get easier a lot of things...

The another thing is to make exersise. If you want to live a very healthy life you have to practice sports. Why you have to practice sports, because sports are the healthiest way to keep your body fit. What means to keep fit; it means no obesity problems, no blood diseases or incapacity to walk or move.

And the last thing is the music. Music helps you to open your mind, relax, and take easy a lot of things. Some people are conected a lot to the music, they guide their lifes only with this. There are a lot of kinds of music, you should choose the one that you like and enjoy it!

Good luck and have a happy life with our help!

My favourite sport: tennis.

Tennis is one of the most popular sports in the world. This sport can be played in pairs or alone, and to play this sport you need a raquet, some balls, a net and a court. The court can be a clay tennis court or a cement court. In tournaments, it is more likely to play in a clay tennis court, instead of playing in a cement court.
The positives things of this sport are that you can play with a raquet instead of playing with your hands (like volley) and that gives more power to the ball, witch is better because you can throw the ball to a place in the court where your opponent can´t reach. But there are also negatives things about tennis, like the bounce that the ball can make: it can only make 1 bounce, and generally, when your opponent throws you a short ball and you are in the other corner of the court, you can´t reach it.
In my opinion, tennis is a great sport. I think that if you are all day long in your house, you should go and play tennis, because it is very funny and if you know how to play it, is easy!

Tennis, Julian

Tennis, is a very old sport which was born in England. However, there are tennis players all over the world. It is played in a big court, wich can be made of material or brick dust, with a net in the midle.

I think it is a very interesting sport, and makes you be in shape. You have to run and move quickly.

In spite of the good part of this sport, there's a bad side. It's very likley to hurt youself. Lot's of professional tennis players are injured. And there aren't teams in tennis. You play "singles" or in pairs. That is called "doubles".

To conclude, I love tennis, I can play with my friends and it's a very good sport.

A guide to a happy life

Some people don’t talk about her problems because others might laugh, or doesn’t listen at you. But if you don’t talk about your problems, the problems can be worst. If someone all days hit you, and you don’t tell anyone, he will hit you all life, but if you tell someone, the person maybe stops. In conclusion, if you have some problem you have to tell someone because they can help you.

To think positively is a very important part of the human being. Because if you don’t think positively you might be depress, and also make you happier it depends each case of person. Another good point is that you become more confident and trust more on your you. To laugh is another important part of the humans because it marks you happy.

A guide to a happy life

Nowadays people are living stresssed lives. They always think too much about their jobs and they do not always do whatever they really like. They must forget about all the things that produce stress doing some activities like yoga or meditation. These activities will help them forget about those stressing things. Another option not to be stressed is to reduce the hours of work and increase the hours of having fun. For example, you can do courses with other people to improve your relationships. But the most important thing is to do one thing at a time.

Those ideas will help you for example to sleep better and to improve your quality of life.

If you had only a day of life what would you do?

You would do all the things that you have always dreamt about and all those things that you like. You would also confess things you have never said. But the important thing is to help young people because they are the future. Teach them the good things and not the bad ones. Tell them the history of the world and of your family and teach them to help people because all the things you do returns to you because this is the law of the cause and effect.

A guide to a happy life :)

You probably know the phrase "don´t worry, be happy", well it´s true. People are always worring about little things that don´t let them enjoy life. Just be happy and if you have a big problem take it easy because everything has a solution.
Another thing that people don´t realize is that they can do their responsibilities and have fun at the same time. For example you can do your homework listening to music or washing the dishes while you watch TV. Summing up we are just saying that life is too short to be worried all the time.

Respect the others to have respect from the others.
If you have a boy in your classroom that is very ugly o fat respect him,he is like that.
If you think you are nice and someone comes ans say to you thar you are very ugly i think that you won't like it.




If you have free time,do no stay in home doing nothing like watching tv,listening to music or playing the playstation.
If it is a nice day,go walking, ride your bike or simply stay out.

A guide to a happy life =D

Most of people don´t know how to use their time well. Generaly, when somebody have some free time preferes watching TV or playing video-games instead of making something usefull. For example you can join a sport team instead of lying on bed and doing anything.

People must learn how to spend time better. You can try taking extra classes, look for a half-time job or joining any sport team after school. If you wanna have a healthier life, this is our advice.

A guide to a happy life

Sometimes, you are hungry and you take the first thing you see in your fridge. That is wrong. In you eat something that is due, you will die imidiatly because if you always eat bad things you won't live for much time.
And in the other hand, you will be very fat. In the next days you should do diet and you won't eat everything that you like for a long time.
So you should wach what you eat.
Sometimes you have to study and you have a lot of time but, you do your homework the last day. That's wrong too. You can't do this because day to day you have more homework and one day you can't do all.
Sometimes, for example, you have to do a math's work and the next day the teacher says that you have two tests. You won't study and do the homework in the same day.
Or when you have to go to one place and you have to study you won't have time to do the twice.
You should do your homework the first day you have to.

I think that travel makes people happy because when you travel, generally, you are not stressed, you could go around the world and see beautiful places like Paris, Rome, most parts of Europe and, if you go to a place with, for example snow you can do sport activities, is to much fun to do some of this 3 things.
So, if you want to travel, my advice is to save money for a time and you could go to beautiful relaxing and fun places.

A guide to a happy life :)

Now a days, people are living under stress. They have got so much things in their minds that they finally forget what are the important things in life. That's why you have to make a time for you, to think specially about your person and dedicate a time to do whatever you want. Some things you can do are listening to clasical music, read something you like, or doing yoga or others activities where you can take your mind off all your problems. Like this, you'll be more relaxed and you'll do your activities better.

Other problem is that many people suffer from insomnia. This is an important problem, because you must sleep at least 8 hours to be good the next day. So remember, try to do your things in day. Don't stay watching TV programs! Organised yourself! Come on, you can!

A guide to a happy life

People often don´t talk about their problems because they sometimes feel ashamed. they are afraid of sharing what they feel and this is a big mistake. If nobody in the world talked about their problems, people wouldn´t feel relaxed, and happy. However, if we speak our minds with our friends, family or somewone relaiable we will surely feel better and happier.
fortunately in this big world, there are professionals that specialize in helping people to find a solution to "those things" in our minds called problems. You have to pay for the sessions, wich is worthwhile, as they can give you great advices. These people that are ready to listen to you, are called psychologists. In some occasions friends can be helpful because they know you well, in other situations this is not enough and you need a more experienced point of view. Although friends and psychologists seem to be good options, we think mothers are the best. In other words friends, psychologists and mothers may help you when you have a problem.

A guide to a happy life

People want to be respected, so you have to rspect others. You are respecting others and their points of view. The people are good when you speak your mind. Have a good relationship with other people and everybody will be happier.

People shouldn´t take drugs so as not to be atempted by drug addiction. Drugs are bad because they make you sick and you can´t do anything. When you try them you slip your mind of all. If I were you I wouldn´t get into drugs, and you´ll be well on your way.

A guide to happy life

Sometimes you fell sad and you can't tell it to anybody. When you argue with a friend and then you can't talk about what happened or when something happens to you and you are embarrased of telling it. Try to phone your friends to tell them about your problems, but listen to them too, because they can have their own problems too.

Sometimes you do some activities that take a lot of time, but they aren't very useful. When you stay all afternoon alone with the computer, and then your teacher asks you the homework and you haven't done it, or when you spend a lot of time at home instead of going out with friends. Try to do the homework first and do the funny things when you have already finished.

A guide to a happy life.

If you want to have a happiest life, you should share more time with your family. For example: going to the park with them, playing games, eating barbacue with them, doing sports, and doing more familiar activities. So, in conclusion you should be happy all the time you are with your family, so you could make good use of your time.

If you aren´t already happy, you should also have fun with your friends. For example: going out with them, chat with them, playing sports or laughing with them. In a general conclusion, you should be all the time youcan with your family and your real friends.
