Me encanta lo que dice la Sra. F. Isabel Campoy (De: F. Isabel Campoy , www.isabelcampoy.com) y me hace pensar y reflexionar acerca de que en un tiempo en el pasado intentaban olvidar el idioma y ahora estamos intentando de conservar, no tan solo nuestro lenguaje, pero el arte, la musica, todo lo que esta en la cultura y tradiciones. ¿Que es lo que vamos a hacer nosotros para preservar lo que somos?

Se termino el año escolar

El año escolar esta por terminarse y mis estudiantes me preguntan si van a poder regresar a la escuela durante el verano. Se me hace chistoso que quieran, que rueguen, regresar a la escuela durante el verano. ¿Deberas, durante el verano? La mayoría de las veces, esperamos que los niños están desesperados por irse de la escuela, olvidar los libros y sus metas escolares. No es por decir que no quieran o no tengan metas, simplemente es que la verdad es que los niños son niños y los cielos azules, las albercas y el sol ardiente por tan caliente que este, nos gana. Nada mas me sorprende. Claro que yo también estoy lista para las ¨vacaciones¨ de verano. Pero la diferencia es que me ilumina que mis estudiantes sinceramente demuestran que su educación les importa.
