TWO AMERICAN FRIENDS AT SCHOOL


Presenting to the students was a great experience. We enjoyed teaching them about the state of Michigan, they were very interactive and asked many questions. We enjoyed being able to open their minds to a new culture and  sharing with them the similarities and differences between the United States and España. It was great to be interviewed by a intelligent young reporter about our lives in Michigan, he asked many informative questions. Also, the students were curious to see if the United States had a traditional dance, so we showed them how to swing dance. After we showed them swing dancing we were curious about the traditional dance of Sevilla, the Sevillana, and some of the students volunteered and taught us. We enjoyed it and it is a experience we will never forget.

Gracias,

We are going to deal with the advantages and disadvantages of television. Watching television has both advantages and disadvantages indeed.
There are several drawbacks to watch tv as for example the fact that it is bad for the eyes or that family life is less communicative than in the past.
However, there are many advantages as having the experience of good company while it is turning on. A  further advantage is that many good tv programmes can be very educational and implement family members in general and young people’s, in particular, knowledge.
In short, it can be seen that the number of advantages is similar to that of disadvantages but it’s a very popular type of media.
