Just married....

THANKS FOR LOVING ME

It's hard for me to say the things
I want to say sometimes
There's no one here but you and me
And that broken old street light
Lock the doors
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I

Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me
Thank you for loving me

I never knew I had a dream
Until that dream was you
When I look into your eyes
The sky's a different blue
Cross my heart
I wear no disguise
If I tried, you'd make believe
That you believed my lies

Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me

You pick me up when I fall down
You ring the bell before they count me out
If I was drowning you would part the sea
And risk your own life to rescue me

Lock the doors
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I

Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
You parted my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me

When I couldn't fly
Oh, you gave me wings
You parted my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me

Working Women and Reason for Students' Failure


WORKING WOMEN

Women think and act alike in most cases regarding work and family. They think that work and family are equally important to invest their time and effort. To cite an example, the author of Harry Potter books-Joanne Kathleen Rowling-first thought of the book when she was on a train between London and Manchester and she had no money, no job and a baby daughter to raise. It took her five years to finish the book, but she loved writing and didn’t give up. There are many examples of working women sharing time at work and home. They have to work for long hours, and the most common cause is that they need the money. Once upon a time, a long time ago, women had to do the household chores and take care of their children and wait for their husbands to come back from work; there was a time when husbands were the breadwinners. As society ‘develops’-one of the main causes of working women was world war I- women were obliged to work, there was no choice because their husbands were in the middle of the fight. From that moment, women became heroines, apart from taking care of the house and children, they had to work. At the beginning, they have to work in factories, handle heavy machines, etc. Nowadays they can work from home in some cases, or at the office, kind of ‘frendlier’ jobs but for a very long time their salaries were very poor compared with men’s.  Later, as time went by, men were no longer the breadwinners, and women almost shared income in a fifty percent with men. Women had to learn how to cope with family and work. To sum up, working women is now an accepted concept, and they also have Internet blogs and sites were they can ask advice on how to deal with home and work and share experiences. 


REASONS OF STUDENTS´ FAILURE


                 One of the priorities of research in education is study the causes of students failure during their school work. To begin with, there are many reasons why students can fail and we seem to always want to find someone or something to blame.The first thing to be considered is the lack of motivation that is to say a student who does not realize why they need to succeed, will not succeed. It is a fact that some children need some kind of motivation to help them through school. If they do not have motivation, they fail. There is not doubt that peer relationship can cause changes in the students behaviour. A parent needs to monitor their child´s friends all the way through primary and secondary school as well. We believe that if students are not at school, they cannot learn that is to say attendance is another important reason to consider about. In addition many of the students who attend schools, they do not like it, they do not practice their homework or study due to cheating or copying. They are caught cheating by their teachers many times. Another reason is their parent involvement, if parents are aware of the school and teacher expectations and can enforce hard and solid work habits at home, the students will be successful. With parent support students have more opportunities to succeed.
In addition organization is essential to order daily activities at school. Students who have not an agenda or have a messy schoolbag are signs that students are not active in their education. In conclusion  the causes of students failure have different reasons and it becomes necessary to determine the factors of these reasons  to find out the solutions to improve the students school life and their problems.

What is a well-written paragraph like?

    ACADEMIC WRITING


Structure of a well written Paragraph  

Parts of a paragraph


  • The topic sentence
It states what you are writing about, what your subject is, which formula is followed to write an effective topic sentence.
  • The body
Supporting details and supporting arguments for your topic sentence.
  • The closing sentence
Remind the audience what you are writing about; keep them thinking. Restate the topic sentence but in a different way.

Writing skills


To write a very clear paragraph you have to follow some rules:
  • Indent that is to set in or back from the margin, as the first line of a paragraph or skip a line. Do not use both of them. This rule has to do with the way the paragraph looks.
  • One central idea in one paragraph.
  • All other ideas come after the thesis statement. They must directly relate to the main topic.
  • The length of the paragraph could be different.
  • It is important to have lots of details. These details should explain why the topic is important to the overall idea of the essay. The reasons and the examples support what you are saying about the topic sentence.
  • Use bridges. One idea in a sentence must be connected to the next one and this to the next. It creates flow.
  • Key terms are used when you have to write about something specific. They can be used as many times as you need to but avoid repetition of words.
  • End the paragraph with a very clear statement that the idea finish.

Metacognitive analysis of my first writing: " Writers and Writing are a must"

Writers and writings are a must

To begin with,writings are supposed to be done by writers. By definition writing is a piece of work on a sheet of paper which says something about something or someone. On the other hand the writer is the person who writes this piece of work so if there isn´t a writer, there won´t be writing, they go together and they need each other. The writer is connected in body and mind with the main idea of the writing because he or she is expressing his or her thoughts on a sheet of paper. Writing and writers share the same love for Literature.

Metacognitive analysis of my first writing" Writers and Writing are a must"

Writing is a fluid process created by writers as they work. I found this sentence very interesting to start with the process of correcting and checking my first writing. I haven´t written a piece of work for a long time so it is difficult to me to try out to do it. First of all, I haven´t considered the stages of writing so it is not clear enough the purpose. First of all when we want to write about something, we have to think about some questions for the very beginning, what I want to say, how I want to say it, who the reader will be, what I need to know to begin and who I can talk to about my ideas. This stage is called Prewriting. When all these questions are answered in your head, you can put into practise and you can start writing According to the theory, I do not think about these questions to write about writing and writers. Once I have chosen the most important point of my paragraph, I must find the best way to tell my readers about it. After organizing my facts and ideas, it´s time to write down the ideas in an organized way by using notes and the plan I have done in the first stage in order to develop the topic.This is the Drafting stage. Then before writing I have to alter, modify, add or delete content, reorganize the message and clarify, according to what has been written in the draft in order to revise everything.That's called Revising stage. After that if you are satisfied, you can start with the process of Editing which focuses on the sentence level. It involves questioning and analyzing sentences.Finally you can publish it that means is the process of production and diffusion.The final writing is shared with a group of people who will enjoy reading. Publishing includes the stages of the development, acquisition, copy editing, graphic design, production, printing and marketing and distribution. It can even be published online.
