Those who deserve pride are the ones that won't brag about it...

SURPRISE!
After the LA song presentations we were all a little bit scared so we asked our amazing teacher Miss Shillina if she could perform for us so that we wouldn't be so scared, and guess what!? SHE SAID YES!
WE LOVE YOU MISS SHILLINA!

Here is the amazing performance of Like a Prayer- Madonna by the one and only... MISS SHILLINA MARIA JONES!! WUHU!

SUPER HEART!
We were asked to change the lyrics of a song and make the song about what we wanted for Monterrey... At the beginning of the assignment I wasn't excited at all but once we started with the choreography and the lyrics everything changed and I was so happy that our teacher had the great idea of doing this activity because it was the best thing in the world to see other classmates performing and performing myself.

Here is a video with the lyrics of the song that was created by my team...

GLOGSTER

We were asked to create a Glogster about our identity. I loved this because I learned things about my classmates that I had no idea about.
Here is my Glogster...

2GETHER!!!

I was invited to attend to a congress at TEC that was really cool, because we were able to see what the handicap people experienced as a daily basis. For example the first day we ate blindfolded and it was really shocking to see that we complained about being like that just for a few minutes when others actually have to live their whole lives like that. I personally was completely changed with this congress and now I see life and people in a complete different way and I am really happy that I was invited to be a part of it...


Here is a picture of me in the second day of the congress playing extreme twister with paint...
 

DESING YOUR OWN SHOE

MM CLASS

We were given a white converse shoe and we had to create our own design using photoshop, I personally liked this project because it was really fun to see the different designs that my classmates came up with...
I chose to do a Lady Gaga design...



FINAL DEBATE POSITION PAPER

Since our CIMUN grades weren't given to our teacher we had to have one last debate that would be our quarterly exam grade for UN together with our country binder. This is the position paper I wrote for this debate...





Committee: WHO
Topic: What can be done worldwide to reduce or prevent child obesity?
Country: Spain
Delegate: Ma. Fernanda Jasso
School: Colegio Ingles



Obesity is one of the most critical health problems worldwide. This disease doesn’t only causes psychological issues; it is also the major cause of some other problems like diabetes, hypertension, and other heart diseases. The worst part about this problem is that children are being affected and when a child is obese as a kid is most likely to be either obese/overweight or have health problems as an adult that’s why we need to alert parents so that they can do something to prevent later health issues of their children.


Statistics show that right now in Spain 2 out of every 10 children have an overweight problem, which is twice the amount as it was 20 years ago. Even though there has been and increase it’s still a very small one. Spanish culture has always been used to eat homemade food and their taste has always been more selective and healthier. In my delegation, the NAOS (Nutrition and Obesity Prevention Strategy) is asking to the fast food industry to lower he sodium content on their food by 10% and is also trying to establish health programs and to promote the selling of healthy snacks in schools all over around Spain.



My delegation thinks that we should start by setting a proper nutrition program that will help to create a healthy way of life by recommending the correct diet according to your age and socioeconomic level. This program will also include a daily 60-minute work out routine that will be focusing more in younger kinds so that way they grow up with healthier habits. My delegation is now open to hear more solutions…
