It was really nice. Great job keeping up on the book! I'll prepare a quick review of trickier plurals and past tense sentences for the start of next session.

Awesome first session Dayana! I really look forward to reading more of the book and talking about it with you! For next time, we'll get some extra practice with past tense in English and some pronouns (somebody, anybody, nobody, ect). Anyway, great job preparing for class and we'll talk soon. Best, Tim

    El Día de Acción de Gracias

    Hoy es el Día de Acción de Gracias. Estoy visitando mi amiga para la cena. Sus padres la están visitando desde la costa este. Comimos mucha comida: uvas, puré, cangrejo, pavo, pan, y una tarta de chocolate. Ahora estoy demasiado llena, pero toda la comida estuvo muy buena.

    Becoming a Teacher at 19 I’m 23 years old. I graduated high school when I was 16. I wanted to be a pharmacist or an architect, anything but a teacher. Why? I wanted to do something different. My mom is a teacher, my aunts are teachers, so it runs in the family. My parents told me that I should take a pharmacy course before actually studying pharmacy at the university. I did, and I realize it was not my thing. So, I thought what really warmed my heart. I found out being around kids and helping them. Therefore, I started studying English as a Second Language and got the opportunity to work as a preschool assistant. I loved the experience. When I finish studying ESL, I studied Education. Now, I can truly say how much I enjoy being in the classroom with my students. I love and I’m thankful for all of it; the blessings, the learnings, the highs, the lows. I’m not saying I’m the perfect teacher because I’m far from being perfect, but I have the desire to become better for them. I started working with kids at 19, and I hope that my curiosity and love for education and kids never leave me.

    My Short Term Goals I’ve decided to share with some of my goals for this year. I will share five goals of the list that I’d. While the others I am going to write when I achieve them. These five goals are not in order. First, I want always to think and speak positively to, and about, other people. I’m not talking about my friends or family, but about people in general. Second, I want to be more outspoken. I usually open with some parts of my life, but now I want to be outspoken in every aspect of it. Third, I want to master my English speaking and writing. The reason is I’m studying ESL, and I want to teach elementary kids in my country. Therefore, I want to skilled enough to give kids a better English as the one I received. Fourth, I want to travel to a new country this year; I have gone to some countries in Central and South America, but I would love to visit England or U.S.A. Finally, I want to have a better physical shape. At the moment, I’m running and going to the gym, but I want to practice beach volleyball or surfing twice a week.

    My Saturday Today I woke up around 7:30 a.m. I wanted to go to the beach, but it was raining. The bad weather had changed all my plans, so I decided to do some cleaning. While I was throwing some old papers from college, I found a box with letters and cards from my first students' parents. I stopped to read each one; some made me laugh while others made me cry. Meanwhile, I was reading each message I realized that I chose the right career for me. Being a preschool teacher have brought pleasure to my life. I have been a preschool teacher for four years (got the opportunity to work and study at the same time), and I feel blessed to do something that I love. Each day of work is an adventure for me, I always have fun with my babies. I'm a teacher, what is your superpower?

    My Beautiful City Limon is a province in Costa Rica. Even though it’s a small city, it has a lot of beautiful places, friendly people, and a variety of cultures. We have a big festivity named “Carnavales” in October. During that week, you can enjoy our delicious food, live Caribbean music that’s calypso and soca, and observe the colorful costumes. The popular culture is the Costa Rican, Afro-Caribbean culture, although mestizos, indigenous, Chinese, and foreigners who came to visit and fall in love with our little jungle live here, That’s why it is known as a spot of diverse culture. So, feel free to visit ​you will fit right in. If you ever come to town you must visit our beaches; I recommend you Manzanillo, Punta Uva and Puerto Viejo beaches. When the weather is good you can do: surfing, fishing, walks on the trails or just chill on a beach. There are several national parks such as Cahuita and Tortuguero National Parks for those who like natural beauty and look for animals: snakes, birds, monkeys, sloths, butterflies, frogs, different types of insects, fish, alligators, sea turtles, etc.
