"MEMORIAS DE MIS PUTAS TRISTES"

MARQUEZ. GABRIEL GARCIA MARQUEZ, COLOMBIA.

A BOOK TO REMEMBER, EXQUISITE, YOU BECOME THE PRINCIPAL CHARACTER, IT IS AMAZING, HOW AN OLD MAN IS ABLE TO TELL MANY STORIES OF HOW LOVE IS ABLE TO KEEP YOU ALIVE, ABOUT TIME ITSELF MOVING AROUND YOU AND NO YOU MOVING AROUND TIME. HOW HUMANS METAMORPHOSIS OCCUR, CHANGING FROM A LITTLE KID TO A TEEN TO A MAN TO AN OLD MAN TO A WISE MAN UNTIL LIGHT BECOME SO BRIGHT, THAT THE BEST IS TO GO TO IT. HOW WOMEN ARE NEED, PERSONALLY AFTER READING THIS BOOK MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS "WE LOVE BY NATURE NO BY NEED" WE ARE WEIRD WE DON'T CARE OF THE AGE NEITHER, NEITHER THE SEX,NEITHER THE DIFFERENCES, WE JUST CARE OF BEING THERE TO FEEL THEIR TOUCH, TO FEEL,TO SEE THEM FALL IN MORFEUS SPELL, TO LET ANGER RUN THROUGH US LIKE A STORM RAGING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SEA TRYING TO DROWN BOATS." TIME DO NOT WAIT FOR LIFE TO BE WASTED, TIME WAIT WHEN LIFE IS SPENDED.

recommendations for you and students

sorry for not writing but i have been acquainting myself with some situations around my private life. ok the suggestion of the week if you are a teacher you will like to read these books with your students "Bridge To Terabithia" the story of a guy, of a student that have problems at home emotional problems and economical and at school he suffer what we all students suffer, bullying and being in-love with the teacher. having weird but nice friends and as always for those who like to be quiet living in their own world imagining,drawing and writing stuff around all day long. students feel in-touch with the book and i have get many results at the moment of writing responses they remember their relation with the parents and they start discussing and understanding why parents do what they do. i got a nice experience reading this book from Katherine Paterson. if you teach students in a foreign language that are advance i suggest to read a chapter and then watch part of the movie and continue like that so they get an image of the context of the book or at least know that they are understanding.  another book that may be for your students could be splintered which is connected with alice in wonderland but more acquainted to our time. " splintered" from A.G Howard ot maybe something with less fantasy and some more romance and reality with a twisted Philosophy like John Green's books as "Looking for Alaska" that still have a little focus in love and looking for the place where you and your hard belongs, the way that we hunt our dreams not that diferent from his most recognized piece of art, his Monalisa " The Fault in Our Stars" an story of a guy and a girl with cancer but that suffer not for that common sickness, that story of love and tragedy that it will become part of the history the same way as Romeo and Juliet did; John Green made teenagers noticed something that no body tells us that is how wonderful is to live and how wonderful can be to find that one that make our morning sun shine and our moon show between the clouds, that one that make the worse of our wound look like a scratch when our other half is in danger. so good luck finding a book for you or your students. congratulations for reading continue like that. 

THE SCARLET IBIS

GREETINGS MY FRIENDS. TODAY WE ARE GONNA TALK ABOUT THE "SCARLET IBIS" A SAD AND TOUCHING STORY THAT EVERY BROTHER AND SISTER SHOULD READ. THE STORY DON'T ONLY APPEAL TO THE HUMANISTIC SIDE. ITS HARD TO BE THE OLDER BROTHER AND IT IS EVEN HARDER TO BE THE OLDER BROTHER OF A YOUNGER SICK CHILD.

THE SYMBOLS OF THE STORY IS THE SAME NAME OF IT, A DEAD RED BIRD ITS THE SYMBOL OF A TRAGEDY AND DEATH. WHEN THE DREAMS FLY IGNORING PEOPLES BELIEVES AND THEN WHEN YOU CAN SEE THE MAJESTY OF ITS COLORS AND THEN THEY FALL AND DIE.

WRITTEN BY JAMES HURST, A SHORT STORY THAT SIXTH GRADERS SHOULD LEARN AND EVERYONE THAT HAS A BROTHER OR A SISTER SHOULD KNOW.

LITERARY ELEMENTS

Ok. Hi everyone todays topic will be LITERARY ELEMENTS.

Every time we are reading we get them present this literary elements are the ones that give us a clear idea and a new way to explain things making us think. Without the literary elements will be hard to read a book since like in cooking these are the spices that give flavors to all those books, poems , songs and movies and not only that it will not matter how much time we read a book these elements are the ones that help you understand. Some of the literary elements are:

Metaphor :  is to compare two things by symbols without using As or like usually is or are

You are the moon in my dark nights.

Similes: use to compare using “As and Like”

  You are beautiful like the stars that shine every night or you are as cute  as my puppy.

Hyperbole: an exaggeration.  (You might have heard many examples of this one from your mother)

This is the best day of my whole life. I am so strong that I will knockout Chuck Norris.

Alliterations: the creation of repeating the similar sound with a specific consonant or vowel that goes at the beginning of most of the words.

We can tell where, when and why, we were there.

Rhyme: is whenever the sound of word is alike. Usually use in poems and songs.

The sheep is on the ship.  The teapot shouts and spouts the tea out.

Satire: is to make fun of things.  you might see this in “Hola Soy German” or “Enchufetv” or “ south park” or “the Simpsons”

The great example  of the satire is to show the weekpoints and the degradation of human in many social aspects.

Symbol: is an object, animal or words that look like something but they represent or have some meaning.

Blue: sad ,  Eagle: pride,  Mirror:  reflection of yourself.  

Personification: when you make an un-live thing to have feelings or to do something of human.

The forest is awake or the plants are sad.

Ok I hope I have made my self clear and that you like this info that you might use in your class as a student or teacher or maybe just as a reader to understand more about literature because we can not say that litetature is everything we read there are some rules but first we gor to undertand this elements and more.

Whenever we think or want to know information of that age when the social class highlight in society showing the injustice of human kind by the way each person treat the others base on the money and family last name. The Victorian age was not just an age progress and industrial revolution this age had many faces social, economic, industry, fashion and many others that can be finding documented in some of the world classics written by Charles Dickens. Each book is not just a master piece is a documentation of one of the most progressive ages of British society. 

The most known novels like:

By reading this book you might find yourself immerse in a whole new culture the only that Marquez is able to. All the words and expressions so explicit and perfect that transport you inside the book make it you be a witness the tragedies and resolutions.

reading plan

since all the year we are busy with homework, jobs and all type of problems. Reading might be hard to get but as many readers have notice reading take you inside a world that you will love. As our dear Dr, Seuss says:

 "“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.” Dr. Seuss, I Can Read With My Eyes Shut!. We all are able to agree how good his books are and as we do not have that much time to read all those delicious books here come some strategies. 

1. read plan. 

thing about all the things you have during the week and if you can get at least an hour from all your busy time to read. Remember get a place a quiet one will the gadget that you need in case you need music or silence or a soda or water or whatever that you will need to do not stop reading, 

2. book selection

look in to a book store or ask a friend or go to a library and see the books that you like for this get read, but dont rush in your selection whenever you pick a book look information about the author this is call research, don’t just get to the product go to the start of every book the mind that take the thought from its brain to the paper that will flow through our heart and cultivate our brain. 

3. the list

seems you already know what books you want the next is to create the list of book do this depending on the next criteria:

  a.your favorite literature gender and category 

  b, the time you got to read. 

  c. do not ever thing that a book is equal to a movie, they are always different in one or         another way.

            

4. reading 

this is the step all wants. start reading, An advice is to get a reading having a schedule and a goal of how much time it will take to read all the book. in case you dont like the book wait until the end to decide if you like it or not so at least you will defend your self-having enough knowledge of the book content .

respect the book and the writer they want to know you as you want to know them

what to think

Whenever people start a book they might have a lot in mind. the first thing could be to read the book and fall in love with it ; another may be to read it just as an assignment. well reading is reading and as long as you read knowledge will be next to you ( no literally ). as readers we got the option to believe and have a clear message of the book and the writer. the least we can do is to finish the book that a person that work hard,thought hard and had a hard time writing following the writing process to take a master piece of art in to our minds. so when ever you as reader start a book finish it even if that takes a year or a week.
