My review of " Peruvian WEAVERS "

This story is written about traditions in Peru. For people of Chinchero in Peru it's very important to weave. They cut wool from sheep with a knife in the Andes. After that, they weave each other by using traditional methods. But Nilda was disappointed that young people don't learn how to weave. So many women started jobs of weaving. Weaving is not only job but also the way to get money. Recently it seems that people often forget our traditions. I think we should be interested in them. 

My review of " Columbus and the New World "

This book is written about Christopher Columbus. He is famous for a sailor. When he was young, he have wanted to study geography. I was surprised that only few people knew that the earth is round at that time. He started sail, but in the end he couldn't find a new route. I think he is a great sailor. Thanks for his challenges and voyages, we can know about our world and the earth today.

elllo#797 Wasting Money

Antina and Todd talk about saving money. Antina wastes money on movie rentals. She often rentals five movies a week because she loves watching movie. Todd decided that he would have a movie for two week. I often use my money in order to buy new clothes, but these days I try to save money. I want to get a driver's license some day!

elllo#769 DVD and Cinema

Mark and Todd talk about DVD and Cinema. Mark chooses DVD because he can sit on his nice relaxing sofa. But Todd chooses cinema because cinema has a big screen and high quality sound. I like both of them. When I watch DVD, I can play and stop many times, but at the cinema only once. At the cinema I can watch earlier than DVD and eat popcorn. If I want to watch movie early, I often watch at the cinema first. So cinema is also useful.

My favorite news report videos

1. Manners
 This group's people were active, and there were superimpose on the video. So I could understand easily.

2. Play ground equipment
 I enjoyed watching this video.  Their explanation went smoothly, and their problems and solutions were clear.

3. Children not playing outside 
This group's people asked children some questions about their problems. I think it's good idea.

My review of " The Art of Making Silk "

The Antico Setificio Fiorentino is the Antico Setificio Factory uses ancient machines tomake handwoven fabrics.  Mechanical looms became old for many people, but at this factory weavers treat them as new.  Stefano Benelli, craftsmen at this factory, is a weaver.  Weavers have to do same things in succession.  In spite of the work is repetitive, he says that it's not stressful!  I was surprised and looked up to him because maybe I can't say as his answer, and I can't do such a hard work.

My review of " The LOVE of a KING "

Prince Edward was born in 1894 and he spent lonely in Buckingham Palace when he was young. So he couldn't feel love from his parents. Mr Hansell was Edward's teacher but he was very angry because Edward was impolite.When he was 16 years old, he had to wear skirt because he would be King. One day he heard that Mrs Simpson was assaulted from her husband but she loved him.  In 1936 the King was dead, so Edward became the King. At last he could marry Mrs Simpson. Edward said that she was everything to him and LONG LIVE LOVE! I felt as if something is pressing on my chest. I think that his life changed  a wonderful life, thanks to Mrs Simpson. This story was so great.
