OBSERVATION OF MY ORAL PRESENTATION

CHILDHOOD OBESITY, Sergi Garcia.

In my presentation I used powerpoint . I think that the powerpoint I used was relevant to the topic and attractive. My presentation was 5 min. 30 sec. long.
I tried to look at the audience most of the time but possibly not enough and I was reading occasionally from my notes. I used hand gestures to hold the attention of de audience.
I organized my ideas in order important, but I could have used discourse markers to make my ideas more clear.
My information was detailed and clear but I didn’t used enough examples. I look the information mostly on the internet and also in books about health.
My grammar was correct and my vocabulary quite rich and varied, but I can improve. I didn’t used enough sentence linkers or pause fillers and I need to remember this for my next oral presentation.
I think I spoke too quickly and this was bad for the presentation. I need to speak more slowly and pronounce my words more clearly.
I think the subject of my oral presentation was interesting and relevant and I think my mark should be six or seven. I need to improve my used of sentence linkers and pause filers. Also I need to learn more vocabulary and speak more slowly and more clearly.

PROTESTING IN THE STREET DOESN'T CHANGE ANYTHING

When the governement, the state... takes social measures to make teh country get better, and this measures wrong, people often quit in protest against teh measures in the street. I think not achieved the purpose of making the change until we reach extreme situations where people become crazy, broken cars, thrown objects against shops... that is when the governement changing the measures or improvenment.

On the one hand, I agree with people protesting in the streets because they are free to do what they want and the police can't say anything. In my opinion these protests are until you reach the extreme cases that I mentioned before. I also thik that the protests in the streets are always good because they don't always get extreme situations, but some people burn things and this sometimes changes the opinion of the politicians.

On the other hand I don't agree with these protests in the streets because sometimes when the people arrive in estreme situations, sometimes these persons dead. The question is: Should these situations to come to the street protests will change anything? I think that the governement don't think anything about these things.

In conclusion I belive that street protests are fine as long as this doesn't lead to extreme situations where people's live are in danger. For this reasons I think people should find other ways to protest against public entities because the street always dangerous, and public entities ever win.

FCB cOuLd NoT wItH INTER

On Wednesday, Barcelona played against Inter Milan the last game in the final of the Champions League. To win Barcelona had to score two goals, but this not possible- Inter Milan proved capable of beating the Pep Club, the club of six cups.
Everyone thought they could win this match because they had all the fans of Barcelona Nou Camp to support the players.
Barcelona until the 80th minute of the second half was not able to score goals, all you saw was Piqué, who is defense score a goal!
After the 90th minute all was lost when Bojan scored a goal, and for a time we thought that Barcelona would be the final, but the goal was invalidated because the hands of Toure had touched the ball. So it meant nothing.
Defeat of Barcelona at the end was due to the fact that as a team Inter Milan was stronger, bigger and more splendid.

FuTuRe PlAnS

With one more year at the institute I have started to think about my future. I know I want to go to University and I know I want to study Economics or Businesses but exactly what I will study, I do not know. I would prefer to go to University in Barcelona but if I am accepted to Girona I will be happy also.
Before I started planning my life at University I think I must study hard in school. With all te Economic problems and the small number of jobs available it is now even more important to get good qualifications.

My FiRsT yEaR oF bAtXiLlErAt (6th form)

I am almost finished my first year in Batxillerat I am tired of studying and working and I am looking forward to the summer holidays. This year was different from the last year harder, with more work and projects to organise and complete. The summer will be a good time to recuperate and prepare for my final year in school. If this year was hard, I have no idea what the next school will be like!
However I think I must be assured if I passed the first year of high school, maybe if I'll have to work a little harder but I'm sure I will be able to get the high school and pass the selectivity tests.
