Как я понимаю, сочинение должно быть на любую тему...
My free time (моё свободное время).
I am a stay-at-home type of person. So, I naturally prefer passive leisure activities such as watching TV, reading books or listening to music. But my biggest hobby is ballet dancing. I like to watch performances at the theatre or on the Internet. Besides, I take private piano classes. As I am a creative person, in the nearest future I'm going to take dressmaking classes. I have been dreaming of becoming a fashion designer since childhood.
If you asked me about the most popular hobbies among young people I would say my friends and classmates like listening to music, taking photos, playing computer games and dancing. Some of them are fond of sport. As for me, I don't like sport. I think it is boring.
I try to spend all my free time with my family. On weekends we go shopping, walk in the park and dine out. Sometimes we go to the cinema or the theatre. We like to invite friends to our place and have a lot of fun together. I also spend my free time with my best friend. We do a lot of things together. We both love taking photos and watching movies.
Перевод
Я человек, проводящий дома много времени. Поэтому я, естественно, предпочитаю пассивный досуг, такой как просмотр телевизора, чтение книг или прослушивание музыки. Но мое самое большое хобби - балет. Мне нравится смотреть спектакли в театре или в Интернете. Кроме того, я беру частные уроки игры на фортепиано. Поскольку я творческий человек, в ближайшее время собираюсь посещать занятия по пошиву одежды. Я мечтала стать модельером с детства.
Если бы вы спросили меня о самых популярных хобби среди молодежи, я бы сказала, что мои друзья и одноклассники любят слушать музыку, фотографировать, играть в компьютерные игры и танцевать. Некоторые из них увлекаются спортом. Что касается меня, я не люблю спорт. Я думаю, что это скучно.
Я стараюсь проводить все свободное время со своей семьей. По выходным мы ходим по магазинам, гуляем в парке и обедаем. Иногда мы ходим в кино или театр. Нам нравится приглашать друзей в гости и весело проводить время вместе. Я также провожу свое свободное время с моими лучшим другом. Мы много чего делаем вместе. Мы оба любим фотографировать и смотреть фильмы.
Ken Halla knows a thing or two about using technology in the classroom.
For the past 5 years, the 22-year teaching veteran has worked to transition his ninth-grade World History and AP Government classrooms into a mobile device-friendly environment where students can incorporate the latest technology into the learning process. Along the way, Halla created three of the most used education blogs in the country—“World History Teachers Blog,” “US Government Teachers Blog,” and “US History Teachers Blog”—to help fellow humanities teachers incorporate more technology and more device-based learning into their own classrooms.
“Not every classroom can get a laptop every day, so [devices like smartphones], even if you have to pair up, become something useful for teachers,” Halla says.
“The number of kids with phones has just been blown out of the water the last couple of years,” he adds. “Two years ago, if any of the kids in my room had a phone, it was a dial-phone that maybe they could text on. And now it’s all smartphones.”
According to data compiled by the research firm Nielsen, 58 percent of American children from 13- to 17-years-old owned a smartphone as of July 2012—an increase of more than 60 percent over the previous year. And with over 50 percent of mobile phone users in America now using smartphones, the numbers only seems to be growing.
With their easy internet access, a multitude of education-friendly apps, and the ability to be used at a moment’s notice (after all, what smartphone-owning teenager would go anywhere without their phone?), smartphones have all the tools necessary to boost student learning.
Here are Halla’s top tips for using mobile devices effectively in the classroom.
