I googled it and it said it was something like basketball. I was just curious if that was what it is but with a different name. I was just wondering what netball was.

This is a very powerful blog. I can't even imagine how tough it must be to be worrying if you are speaking English correctly. I'm doing an ESL placement at an elementary school and I find that the ESL students even as young as grade 2 are scared to speak because they worry that their English isn't going to be right. I'm glad that blogging is giving you confidence because even though I don't have english as a second language, I find that blogging too is helping me express my ideas. Keep up the good work. ps. your portfoliio looks great! Wow Irma! This is a very powerful blog. I can’t even imagine how tough it must be to be worrying if you are speaking English correctly.

By sharing your feelings regarding this topic it really helps me try and understand what the students are actually going through. I also just want to make a point of saying that I think your blog is very well organized and has a lot of other useful information that i`m sure I will benefit from!

When it comes to Christmas cards, the internet comes in very handy once again. I can see completely why you want more of your family to get the internet! However, I hope we as people don't become too reliant on technology and forget about things like homemade cards given to those close to you. I'm not disagreeing with what you've said in your blog, in fact I completely agree. Just seeing how reliant some people have become on computer games and things, and it makes me a little sad. I just hope people remember that real life is not in the computer and in order to experience it, they can't be sitting in a computer chair controlling an electronic mouse everyday of their lives!

Would your son like any Harry Potter Books? I really liked reading them at about that age. I remember reading choose your own adventure books. They are really old but they were alot of fun because the reader was able to choose how they wanted the book to end. Hopefully this helps you out a bit! Hey Irma!!
