The Olympic and Paralympics Values.

The Olympic and Paralympics Values.
People all over the world are fond of sports and games. Sport makes people healthier keeps them fit more organized and better disciplined. Besides, sports helps to develop a strong character. Your physical and mental level rises up.
Some people go in for sports for their heath and some for professional aims. There are a lot of stadiums, sport grounds, swimming pools, football fields in each town. In every school pupils spend much time going in for sports. Every year there are a lot of sports competitions, sports days and Olympiads.
Once in four years the Olympic Games take place in different countries. This is the greatest sports competition of the best sportsmen in the world. Famous sportsmen are proud to participate in the Games.
The tradition of the Olympic Games runs back to ancient Greece. It was a great athletic festival of wrestling, foot-racing, discus throwing and others.
In those times numerous states on the territory of modern Greece often waged wars. The ruler of one of these wanted to live in peace and he decided to organized athletic games. There was no war in the country for these days. From that time all the games were held every four years in Olympics. All wars were stopped.
The Games cannot take place in a country which is at war. I think it’s one of the values of the Games.
Thanks to Baron de Coubertin the first Modern Olympic Games took place in Greece in 1896.
Five rings of the emblem of the Olympic Games represent the unions of the five continents and the meeting of the athletes of the world at the Olympic Games. The Olympic Greed reads: «Faster, higher, stronger». I think it means that people must develop themselves physically and mentally and the Olympic motto is «hot to win but to take part» because all people can go in for sports, but not all of them can become champions. But the main thing is to help young people to be healthy and strong.
Along with the Olympic Games the Paralympics Games are held. Overcoming the perennial stereotypes about people with disabilities, Ludwig Guttmann stated: «It is important not what is lost, it is important what is left». Thanks to the efforts of Guttmann, who has proven that sport for people with disabilities creates the preconditions for a successful life restoring mental balance, allaying return to normal life, despite physical problems in 1960 in Rome where held international competition disabled after a few weeks after the Olympic XVII Games. Physically healthy athletes is Olympic sports arenes have been replaced by people with courageous character. Graphic Symbol of international Paralympic movement became red, blue, and green hemisphere, symbolizing the mind, body, stubborn spirit.
To my mind the greatest value of sport is «to compete for life, peace and friendship not for fame and money».

My impression from the seminar

During the seminar we were practiced in the creative writing. We learned something new about it. For example:

1) What makes a good writing assignment?

- Choice

- Real-world application

- High interest.

We remind that there are 6 steps in the creative writing. They are:

• pre-writing
• organizing
• drafting
• revising
• editing
• publishing.

We did a lot of exercises. At first we composed a short story. We had a 3 sheet of papers. On the blue paper we wrote a character. On the yellow – a place. On the white – a problem.

My story was the next:

Little boy who went to Malta in summer so he had a hard family situation.

Also we wrote a story with some words.

I think when I will be a teacher I will use all this exercises with my pupils. Because they are very interesting and not so hard.

What is the different between the loving and to be in love? 26.02.12

What is the different between the loving and to be in love?

    Love is one of the most interesting things in the world. And also we have a popular question - what is the different between the loving and to be in love? I try to give the answer on it.

As to me “to be in love” is simply thing. We can be in love with the first view. It’s very popular nowadays. We are so young when we fall in love and we think that it’s for a long time or forever. Our heart has a lot of feelings – we need our lover every time, think about them. We read romantic books, poems, watching lyrics films. “To be in love” is the first step to the loving, or love.

When you saw a nice person your heart goes “la-la-la”… you need often meets with he or she, you want to hear her or his voice…. You can spend a lot of times on the telephone. Nowadays young person are in the different social pages. They spend their free time in the writing each other – it’s a very important part of their relationship.

   And so often they are thinking that it’s love. But when they meet with the first problem their relationship going to the end. And during one month or a few weeks they found a new lovers or “a part of themselves”.

If you can decide your problems and continue your relationship it’s look like a love. When you really love your boy/girlfriend you think about your future, your together’s future. Your feelings are going to the higher level. You understand that your lovers’ maybe has a difficult and important job and he cannot spend a lot of times with you. But you don’t do a problem from this.

When people love each other with different disadvantage they understand that it is love. But if they just speak about love and don’t do anything they are in love. And nothing more.

   I think that everything in our life has two parts. And I cannot be sure that my mind is right. But it’s my own mind. And P.S. when you meet a real love, you heart will say it for you.

Teacher is a good profession

Teacher is a good profession

I am a teacher of primary school for my profession. It is very interesting job. I don’t work in the school, but I know it. Because I had a practice when I studied at the pedagogical college. I teached the second form. I loved my pupils very much. And I think that it is very important argument in the works. When you love your pupils they will love you. Also you must love your work and be ready for the all lessons. Pupils like lessons when they are interesting. You must read more books, magazines and keep in touch of all new in the world. Teacher is a good profession because you connect with different people every day. But the best in this profession is summer holidays.

There a lot of problems, but different professions have them. And it’s not so important when you love your job.

Two years ago I was a student of the pedagogical college. It was the best time of my life. I lived in the dormitory, and now I missed that period of my life. Every day we went to the college, but we had only one dream – fusty finished it. We hated studying.

But now I understand that all best things that happened in my life were happened at that time when I was a student.

And now I am very happy when I shall come to the university.

My impression from the seminar

Studing

I think that  we must use I-net tools more in our studing. Because it will be easier for us and for our teacher. We can received tasks on our e-mail, and send them for a control.  Teacher can  send to us some references and we will work with them.
