Notes, abstracts, papers, exams and problems of Primary education

Dear Natalia,

I'm Patricia Pérez, your friend from Miranda de Arga from primary school.

Do you remember me? We met when we were 12 years old in school and we were best friends. A friend of yours that I met at a camp gave me your address, and I am writing to learn more about you and how you're doing.

I am studying teaching, which has always been my passion, and I'm still swimming at the Tafalla Swimming Club. What are you up to?

I still enjoy judo, but I had to give it up because I didn't have time for everything. Paula, Noelia, Pablo, and Cristina asked me to send you their regards.

We hope you can come back soon to pay us a visit. When you read this letter, I hope you feel excited and that you'll respond to us soon.

Many kisses,

Patricia.

In order to achieve happiness

, Aristotle believed it is necessary to live our lives in accordance to reasons and virtues. Intelligence and virtue are these fundamental ideas he believed can help us become the “supreme good”. Furthermore, happiness seems to be more of a pursuit rather than a state of being. Hence, I believe his definition of happiness lies on the dependency of ourselves. If we were to choose a virtuous path, it can give us the best way to live our lives and more importantly, finding our true form of happiness in the process.

Eudaimonia

is the pursuit of true happiness in our lives. For Aristotle, he believed we should obtain good habits; helping others in need in order to bring greatness into our lives. By displaying many... Continue reading "Aristotle's Definition of Happiness and Acts of Kindness in the Story" »

Eliot attributed a great deal of his early style to the French Symbolists—Rimbaud, Baudelaire, Mallarmé, and Laforgue—whom he first encountered in college, in a book by Arthur Symons called The Symbolist Movement in Literature. It is easy to understand why a young aspiring poet would want to imitate these glamorous bohemian figures, but their ultimate effect on his poetry is perhaps less profound than he claimed. While he took from them their ability to infuse poetry with high intellectualism while maintaining a sensuousness of language, Eliot also developed a great deal that was new and original. His early works, like “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” and The Waste Land, draw on a wide range of cultural reference to depict a modern... Continue reading "The Evolution of T.S.

Problems with the Term "Postcolonial"

1. Negative Connotation: The term "postcolonial" can be considered a second-class label. Salman Rushdie and Arundhati Roy are best-selling authors, but there seems to be a great deal of uncertainty as to what the term denotes.

2. Misleading Definition: "Postcolonial Studies" (PCS) would seem to label literature written by people living in countries formerly colonized by other nations, but there are many problems with this definition.

3. Misrepresentation: It's a sarcastic label for subjugated countries, ruled more by the influence of the United States than by their own indigenous governments.

4. Colonialism is Ongoing: The term "postcolonial" misleads by suggesting colonialism is over when most of the nations... Continue reading "Postcolonial Literature: Themes, Authors, and Challenges" »

Nowadays, traveling is easier than it was some years ago, and visiting a foreign country is as common as moving around your nation. For this reason, when people plan their holidays, they often have the dilemma of whether it is better to travel abroad or to stay in their own country. The aim of this essay is to compare and contrast these two possibilities in order to find similarities and differences between them.

Similarities Between Domestic and International Travel

First of all, both possibilities must be considered with the fact that no matter what you choose, you will get away from the daily workload. Although the landscapes may vary from one to another, you can relax while traveling. According to…

Bilingualism: Acquiring Language Skills

Bilingualism is the ability and function of dual language acquisition. It is best acquired through consistent exposure in real-life scenarios where grammar can be internalized more easily.

Two Subcategories of Early Bilingualism

• Compound Bilingualism: The individual learns the languages in the same environment and context, and they are sometimes used interchangeably (bilingual parents).
• Coordinate Bilingualism: The child acquires the two languages in different contexts (home, school).

After the Critical Period Learning

If language acquisition does not occur until after this time, the individual will never achieve full command of the language.

Unit

Explain what the Success Theory of self-interest is, as described by Derek Parfit.

A theory of self-interest is a general answer to the question ‘what would be in a person’s interest?’ or ‘what would be best for a person? ’Or what would make a person’s life go for him, as well as possible? The success theory of self-interest is part of the desire-fulfillment theories, which claim that what would make one’s life go best is whatever would best fulfill one’s desires. What makes one’s life’s go better is whatever better fulfills their desires. The success theory restricts the relevant desires to be desires about one’s own life. Only desires that involve me will be relevant in determining whether or not my life is going better... Continue reading "Theories of Self-Interest and Virtue Ethics in Aristotle's Philosophy" »

Section B:

Arthur Radley nicknamed Boo Radley by the children of Maycomb. Early in the book Boo is described as a tall and scary looking person who runs around at night eating live possums and cats. He was sometime known as a phantom because no one knew who he was and he goes out at night and eats cats or any other living animal. Boo Radley is a recluse. He and his family are regarded as outsiders and are shunned by the majority of the towns’ inhabitants because they deviate from what is socially acceptable in Maycomb. He had an incident with few troublemakers when he was a teenager, after that, his father locked him in the house. This is seen in the line The Radleys, welcome anywhere in town, kept to themselves, a predilection unforgivable
