Get ready for the worlds finest crowns

Hey pageant fanatics!!!
In a few weeks from now two of the most beautifull women in the world, Miss Universe 2014- 2015 Paulina Vega from Colombia and Miss World 2014 Rolene Strauss from the sunny South Africa will hand over their crowns to their successors. The question is, who will it be?

I think over the past few months there were only two names and one country whose names we heard and that was those of Liesl Laurie and Refilwe Mthimunye who will be representing South Africa in the Miss universe and Miss World beauty pageant. With their beautifull hearts and intelligence they will represent this beautifull country of us and we know that they won't only make us proud, but they will represent us with dignity, honour and pride.


                   
Let us support these two beautifull ladies on the 19th of December 2015 when Liesl Laurie compete in Miss World and on the 20th of December 2015 when Refilwe Mthimunye compete in Miss Universe 2015.

Reflection on the blogging process

19 they say: " All good things come to an end". And so did the blogging.

A big shoutout to all my blog peeps. The whole blogging experience was really a great platform for me to grow and be technologically advanced.

The best memory for me about the blogging was when we had to write our introductions and because I am a Beauty Pageant Fanatic I saw it as a time to let everybody know it, for many people did not know me and did not know what I believed in. I have learned a lot of things, including that my own English vocabulary is not soooo great, but during this whole blogging my English Vacabulary grown a lot. The connection between the assignment and the real world was great, because as a teacher I have to work in the real world with real people and real problems. In my personal opinion this assignment plays a highly important role, because as a teacher I have to teach students to use social media correctly and in a positive way, so doing this whole blogging made me realise that students need teachers who are technologically advanced and bringing my values of unity, honesty, respect and hope into it, I think then students will have a lot of respect for the Education system in South Africa and the people who serve as rolemodels.

If I could have started at the beginning of this blogging process, I would definitely blogged more often, because I now realised it is fun, one learns a lot and you can just be honest with yourself.

I definitely cannot wait to start blogging about the upcoming beauty pageant MISS WORLD 2015 that everyone is looking forward to. Get ready for LIESL LAURIE will rock Sanya's stage on the 19th of December in CHINA!!!

Integrating social media into the classroom and how will I use it to be a better teacher.

Kurt Lewin once said: " Learning is more effective when it is an active rather than a passive process.

Hey everybody!
Is it necessary to integrate social media in the classroom?
That's a question asked by many and today it is my time to answer. I believe that anyone can play with technology,but the future belongs to those who use it to create. it is therefore a MUST to integrate technology in the classroom, for not only is it the modern toys babies are growing up with, but it is also part of our technologically advanced lifestyle we are living in today. Using social media students learn better and stay focused, for scientists shown that students learn better if the like something and is  comfortable with something.


And so people ask me how i will use FACEBOOK, TWITTER AND BLOGGING in class to be a better teacher. As the saying goes, "A child in sport is a child out of court." For me it is the same with social media in class. Technology has become a part of us and it is part of our daily lives. I feel that it should be used, for example blogging can be used to help learners portray their identities and what they believe in. It can be use to help learners with mathematics or science. For there are many blogs about these type of subjects.

Soooo have a nice evening and we will talk again!!!
