Grammar

I've choosen this text (from one of my oral exams) because it talks about books, and like I wrote there, I've been loving the reading world since I was a child. Besides, in this text I could express my opnion about many different books that I have already readen, like Harry Potter, my favourtive saga.

I have also discovered many different things in relation to the English Literature, like the name of some of his classics and their authors. For example: "Romeo and Juliet" by Shakespeare (he also wrote Hamlet); or "Lord of the rings" by JRR Tolkien. I've also learned that there are many different types of textes. The text can be a poem, a play or a narrative text, and at the same time, the story can be tragic, romantic, and so on. But I think that the main lesson of this unit was the importance of the books in our society. Nowadays youth doesn’t love reading, and without books, youngsters won't be able  to learn a profession at all. But people who don’t love reading won’t love reading anymore, we have to be taught since we are Childs, and not everyone is taught to love the reading world. We should start fighting for our future, teaching our children.

I've done this text taking information from different places (mainly from the wix of the unit) and writting it all with my words.

I wouldn't change anything, I think that this unit has everything that matters. We could learn about the English literature, talk about our favorite books, and express our opinions about the reading world nowadays, that has a really serious problem with youth. 

I've personally loved talking about my favourite books and about my vision of what is a book and why is so important to read. 

I decided to put this video of the unit of Art since, like the text, this video is about one of my passions. I've been drawing and painting since I was a little girl, so studying the Evolution of something I love is exciting for me. 

Doing this video I have learned some really interesting things about some painters like Leonardo Da Vinci, for example, he wrote his notes in code, from right to left, and he understood some laws of the physics even before Isaac Newton appeared. I've also discovered that the invention of the camera on the late 1800's made some artist leave the "realistic/representational art". It started being more personal, so we can say that we started a "trip from our brain to our heart". Here's when other artists appeared, experimenting with colours and shapes and creating the abstract art, for example, Picasso, who tries to explain this type of art comparing it with the song of a bird.

I've also learned many things about the places where we can find the art. In museums like the Louvre, the Prado or the MoMA you can see for sure the Evolution of art, but it's imposible to see it all in just one visit, there are many galleries and expositions, and even works of art from ancient cuktures like Rome or Greece. But the art can't be just found in museums; other artists prefer to show their abilities in the street, with a 3D optical illusion. Others, like Kusama, create environments, places that make you feel like in another world. I think that, that's the main purpose of art nowadays, make us feel like in another place, to make us become part of the painting, to realx following the colours and shapes. 

I've done this making a summary of my oral exam, that I created taking information form the wix. 

I think that I should have expressed more things about my point of view, about what's the art for me. But I loved talking about the evolution of art, because now I know that I have a lot to learn.

I decided to talk about the modal verbs. I chose it because I think that it is one of the most important things of the English Grammar. Modal verbs are something basic for someone who doesn't know a lot of english, and it's important to know the difference between them.

I've learned how to use them and when. We can use them to express ability, obligation, possibility, or giving advices. But at the same time, there are many different ways to express all of this. For example, to express ability we have to use can if we are talking about something that is happening in the present, but we use could to refer to the past. However, if we are referring to future ability we need to use "be able to". We have to learn all this with all the modal verbs. 

I've done this text explaining the modal verbs using a popplet that everyone could find in the wix. 

I could have put more examples there for a clearer explication, but that's the only thing that I would change. 

With this I remembered some details about grammar that I had already forgotten.
