Then in the class we do an activity from the book'' Carapace'' this consisted that we have to put the Vijay advantages and disadvantages and the advantages and disadvantages of Anura Perrera. In my copybook I wrote Vijay advantages:

Almost at the end of the class we do a letter letter to the narrator, representig as Vijay or Anura this letter consisted to declare the love for the narrator to stay with one of these characters and not the other. I choose to be Vijay.
In the last class we did an activity that we had to read a text and respond them, the main idea of this text are the text message and how the english its used in this type of new english. I enjoyed a lot reading that text and I learned a lot.
Finally we create an a survey:
1) How many messages you send per week?
2)Wich is the advantage to send message?
3)What is the reason that you send messages?
4)What are the disadvantages of sending messages?
5)You write messages in a formal or an a informal form?
6)You feel comfortable sending messages?
7)In what way the message change the actual society?
In conclusion I want to say that I learned a lot this bimester, I learned new ways of understanding a text (carapace), as currently written text messages into English revolution and that this causes and also the latest the ib profile. I very helpful to understand what really means the ib profile and now I know what i needed to be a successful man in my life.
