Always follow your dreams!!!

How I followed my dream

When I was at kindergarten, I saw some of y classmates carrying the flag and one day I asked a teacher how I could carry it. She said to me “you have to be a great student, get the best marks and be responsible”. I couldn’t carry the flag at kindergarten because I had some problems of behaviour.

At primary school I started to follow this advice, but I had to wait six years to carry the flag. I remember the 20th June 2007, the first day I did it. It was one of the happiest days in my childhood. I carried the flag again in the last celebration of that year.

When I started the secondary school, I remembered that advice again. These five years were very long, and I made a big effort every day to achieve my aim. Every day it was more difficult than the day before, but fortunately in December 2012, I was chosen to carry the flag because I had the best average mark. I was very happy with this news because I’d carry the flag in my last year of the Secondary School.

Now, I’m ending my last year at school and I can say “I have followed my dream and I have made it real”, and it’s beautiful!

POETRY CONTEST

In honour of National Poetry Day on 3 October, we've put together some of our favourite resources for teaching poetry. Use them to challenge your classes to write poems based on this year's theme: 'Water, water, everywhere!'

We have also compiled a top 10 list of speaking and listening resources to help your students debate, argue and discuss in a structured and meaningful way.

Resources for teaching poetry

Forms of poetry: Haiku
Introduce your students to the haiku form and help them count syllables and create their own haiku poems.
Poetry techniques, forms and features
These detailed notes provide an excellent summary of poetic forms and techniques, from personification and alliteration to tanka and limerick.
Firework by Katy Perry: Poetic devices worksheet
Explore the idea of lyric poetry with this resource that asks students to spot the poetic devices in the lyrics of Firework by Katy Perry.
Unseen poetry exercises
Get students into the habit of analysing unseen texts with this series of exercises designed to practise responding to new poems.
Compare and contrast poetry from different cultures
This simple worksheet offers a great format for comparing poems, in this case Island Man by Grace Nicholls and The Fringe of the Sea by A. L. Hendricks, and could be adapted to suit different texts.
