Are you in favour of home schooling or against it?

Some children in the world don't go to school. They study at home. This is called home schooling.

In my opinion, I think that this has both positive and negative aspects. Firstly, in home schooling you can get up late. You can have your parents as teachers too. Secondly, you don't have to go to school, but you don't have school friends. Finally, you don't go out with class and you can feel a bit lonely.

So all in all, I think that home schooling has both positive and negative aspects, but I think that's so better go school, have friends, have a different teacher for some subjects...

WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?

I would like to be a phsycologist.
-You need a University career.
-You don't need fame or strenght.
-It's important for a phsycologist to be friendly and sensible.
-A phsycologist doesn't need to be egotistical or independent.
- He/she hasn't got a lot of style.

DIALOGUE GREY OWL

BBC presenter: Hello, Grey Owl. Can I ask you some questions?

Grey Owl: Yes, you can.

BBC presenter: How old were you when you decided to move to Canada?

Grey Owl: When I decided it I was 18 years old.

BBC presenter: Why did you decide it?

Grey Owl: I decided it because my favourite stories were about Canada and Native Americans. I wanted to learn about Native Americans life.

BBC presenter: What did you do when you arrived in Canada?

Grey Owl: First I met Bill Guppy and his brothers. They taught me how to paddle a canoe, and different kinds of axes and traps.

BBC presenter: What did you do during the following years?

Grey Owl: I learnt to hunt many animals with many traps. I learnt too that I mustn’t use explosives to hunt, because I destroy their lodge and I kill many animals. I also began to dye my hair black and use henna to dye my skin brown. I felt like an Indian.

BBC presenter: Why did you decide to establish a beaver colony?

Grey Owl: Because I adopted two beaver kits, because they were orphans. They grew with me and I wanted to protected them. I thought: “If I establish a beaver colony, the beavers can live without trappers and peacefully”. Then, I started with the conferences, films, books… I always did it with Anahareo, my friend.

BBC presenter: How did you feel when you explained to the people about the life in nature?

Grey Owl: I felt that they were learning about the nature, how to protect it and how to care about it.

BBC presenter: And when you went to England?

Grey Owl: I felt that I was important at that moment, because everybody knew me, and maybe later they would learn how to care about the nature.

BBC presenter: Ok, thanks for you answers. Good bye!
