What is the best way to teach writing to children?

I think we have to teach chilren in a creative way. Teaching writing may be boring, but I think that it depends on the teacher. Also, it is not easy to work with children. We have to be patient and we have to know how to catch their attention. Interesting activities are so importantat to teach children and young people. Using appropiate material is also very important. We have to be up to date in everything we use to teach. We also need to take care of every student. If we personalize ours classes, we will get better resultes. In order to teach in the best way, it is necessary to have classes where the students are fully engaged and interested in taking part in the activities. The best way to teach children and young people is a mixing of many things.

Why is Writing important for an EFL teacher?

Fisrt, EFL means English as a Foreign Language. In general, for all teachers, writing is so important. I have knew English teachers that speak very very well, but their writing is not as well astheir speaking. So, I think we have to be complete in all aspects that english has. To get a good writing is not easy. We have to work hard and also we have to study so much. I encourage you to get it!!!!

SUPER BEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the story of SUPER BEAR!!!
I am going to tell you a story. This is the story of Booby, the bear.
Booby is a special bear who was born in a little family of bears. Booby grew up listening his wonderful father's stories of adventures. He was the eldest of his brothers. They were peaceful and quiet with their neighbors. But someday came a family of bad bears who wanted to steal their land. Booby's family was very afraid.
one day. Booby was so sad and he went to forest to cry. He just wanted to be alone. He wanted his family to live in peace as they always were. But suddenly something happend. Between the trees, he could see a big ancient bear that appeared. He was not afraid of him. It was a ghost, but he felt peace. He touched Booby's left hand and he disappeared. He understood that it was the bear that many of his father stories told about. He could feel that something happened to him. He felt a super-power that was inside of him. He realized that it was to defend his family. But something was wrong in his inward. He was too afraid of the bad bears. His first fight was with his fears and with his mind. He spent the whole night alone in the forest fighting with his mind and feelings. The sun arose and now he was ready to fight. He rushed to his house. There were the bad bears. They had captured his family and they were not alone, they had asked to others animals to fight with them. But there was Super Bear. First, the enemies were laughing at him. But Super bearjust used his left hand, and in a couple of minutes they were all defeated. Super Beard did not kill them but he gave them a big lesson that they never would forget. Now, Bobby lives in peace with his family and he never would be forgotten.

Here is Dyhana. She is an English Teaching student at Universidad del Colorado. Dyhana cams from a poor family but hard-working. Dyanha is in the first year of the English Program. She is the best student of her class. She always gets the best grades and she also have got many scholarships.

She is very nice and polite with people. She is always trying to help her classmates and she does everything to be a good student. But there is something wrong.

At first, everything was fine, but with the pass of the weeks she noticed that some of her classmates began to treat her in a very bad way.

They tried to make her life awful. They were so cruel with Dyhana giving her lots of bad nicknames. She didn't care about that. She tried to concentrate and do her job as student. Soon, no one in her class talked to her. She felt as an island, she felt so lonely. Her classmates were so envious, because she was the best and she had a prodigious student. Go to the University was not something that she enjoyed, but she never gave up, she pushed till the end. Finally, she graduated with the best honors and received a scholarship to continue studying in a foreign country. Don't give up and push till the end!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
