My Family

Hi! My name's Silvia and I'm going to present you to my family.

My mum: My mum's name is Elena, she's 46 years old. She's from S. Sebastian (Pais Vasco). She's an English teacher of ESO. She's medium high, blonde hair and brown eyes. I sometimes argue with her but I know she's a good mother. She cares about me and my brothers a lot and she always tries to make us happy. She likes children a lot and she loves her work because she can work with them. She also likes to travell and to spend time with her family.
In this video I present you to my mum:

My Dad: My dad's name is Jose Luis he's 46 years old, as well and he's from Navarra. He's a Spanish professor at the university in Castellón. He's tall, he has brown eyes and brown hair. I don't have as many arguements with him as I do with my mum, so I enjoy being with him because he is always happy and he doesn't get angry never, (unless it's something really bad). He's very funny and he's always making jokes. He likes to read every tipe of books and she loves music from classical to jazz. When he was little he didn't travell anywhere so now he always wants to visit places.

My sister: My sister is called Paula, she's 10 years old and she goes to Escuela 2, like me. She is in 5th of Primary. She's medium high, she has brown eyes and brown hair. She likes to make me angry but I get well along with her. She likes watching T.V and playing with the nintedo D.S.

My brother: My brother is called Javier he's 17 years old and he is in 2nd of bachillerato. He's tall, thin, he has brown hair and green eyes. I love him, he's always trying to make me feel better when I'm sad and he's very funny. He´s a very kind person with a great sense of humour. Although sometimes he gets a little bit annoying. He loves going to parties and staying out with his friends , he also likes hip hop music and watching T.V a lot.

MY BOOK

Strange tales

I've read a book on summer that is called strange tales about Great Britain. It has lots of different stories. Some places or villages have become famous because strange things happened a long time ago and people from the village tell these stories like a legend.

I've really liked this book a lot, all the stories, but I think that the best story is,

The Loch Ness Monster so I'm going to write a little bit about it.

The Loch Ness Monster is the most famous monster in the world. The Loch Ness is in Scotland and its very famous for his monster, called Nessie by the Scotland people.

Some people believe there is a monster at the Loch (lake) but others don't.

The first time anyone saw the monster was in the year 565. Someone was walking around the lake and saw a man swimming in the water and an enormous monster behind him. Later, in 1827 and in 1930 there were people who saw the monster, but for the last time. Lots of groups of investigators have tried to locate him but they didn't find anything in the Loch.

My Enviroment

In my neighbourhood there are a lot of dogs, and I like it because I love dogs but one thing I can't stand is that when their owners take them out they don't pick up their poop so the street gets very ugly.

I think it's not that difficult to take bag, pick it up and throw it to the trash can.

I've lived in the united states for some time and there ANYONE leave their dog's poop in the streets, it's forbidden.

I think that here in Spain they could do the same and the streets would be cleaner.

In this photo I show you how my street looks like.
