Trabalenguas infantiles para todas las edades en Trabate.com 27 Interesting German Words That Made Their Way into English - Learning Mind It is surprising when you think about how much of the English language is peppered with German words. We talk, without realising half the time, that we are borrowing words from one of our closest European neighbours. But it shouldn’t come as a surprise that many of these ‘loanwords’ are German words. English is a Germanic language, which means English and German share many similarities. These two languages might sound very different, but their roots are incredibly similar. To show you what I mean, take a look at the following German words and their English equivalents: Freund – friendHaus – houseApfel – appleWasser – waterBessen – betterFoto – photoKrokodil – crocodileMaus – mouse Now that you know the reason why so many German words made their way into the English language, here are 27 of them. 27 Interesting German Words We Use in the English Language Abseil (abseilen) This German word abseil is a contraction of ab (down) and seil (to rope).

Trabalenguas Los trabalenguas, también llamados destrabalenguas, son oraciones o textos breves, en cualquier idioma, creados para que su pronunciación en voz alta sea difícil de pronunciar. Con frecuencia son usados bien como un género jocoso de la literatura oral o bien como ejercicio para desarrollar una dicción ágil y expedita. Los trabalenguas constituyen a la vez un tipo de literatura popular de naturaleza oral. En especial sirve para hacer a uno equivocarse en varias ocasiones las personas que lo pronuncian no lo pueden hacer y ahí se desarrolla el conflicto de la pronunciación. Suelen ser juegos de palabras que combinan fonemas similares, y con frecuencia se crean con aliteraciones y rimas con dos o tres secuencias de sonidos. Por ejemplo, «Tres tristes tigres tragan trigo en un trigal», o «Pablito clavó un clavito en la calva de un calvito. En otros idiomas hay trabalenguas que juegan con fonemas o estructuras silábicas inexistentes en español. Referencias[editar] Enlaces externos[editar]

Mind map Diagram to visually organize information A mind map is a diagram used to visually organize information into a hierarchy, showing relationships among pieces of the whole.[1] It is often created around a single concept, drawn as an image in the center of a blank page, to which associated representations of ideas such as images, words and parts of words are added. Major ideas are connected directly to the central concept, and other ideas branch out from those major ideas. Mind maps can also be drawn by hand, either as "notes" during a lecture, meeting or planning session, for example, or as higher quality pictures when more time is available. Mind maps are considered to be a type of spider diagram.[2] Differences from other visualizations [edit] Joeran Beel and Stefan Langer conducted a comprehensive analysis of the content of mind maps.[15] They analysed 19,379 mind maps from 11,179 users of the mind mapping applications SciPlore MindMapping (now Docear) and MindMeister.

Directorios web A grandes rasgos, un directorio es un almacén de direcciones web catalogadas por “temática”. Estos directorios nutren a la mayoría de buscadores para devolvernos búsquedas relacionadas. La mayoría de buscadores tienen robots que escanean la red para encontrar e indexar todas las páginas web, y del mismo modo, buscan dentro de los directorios para darnos resultados. Si tienes una web o un blog no es obligatorio estar dentro de un directorio, pero sí te ayudará a tener algo más de presencia en la red. A continuación os dejo los dos directorios gratuitos más relevantes de la red, y con los que trabajan los motores de búsqueda más utilizados. Tras el salto… Pagerank 8/10 El Open Directory Project es el directorio, editado por personas, más extenso y completo de la red.

Dictionary Game By Claire Owen Age Range: 7 to 11 Each child has a dictionary (or partnered if resources are limited). The teacher randomly chooses a word and the children race to find it in their dictionaries. The first child to find it reads out the definition. This is great fun and creates real competition between the children to be the first to find the word. An enjoyable way of getting children to familarise themsevles with dictionaries. Ewan Hackett has contributed this variation to the above game... Pick a random word from a dictionary and get the children to look it up. in the order they were looked up or rearrange them and use them in alphabetical order. Troy Landrebe has contributed another variation... Another suggestion is to give the groups a definition and have them find the word in their dictionary.

"La vieja escuela no sirve en el siglo XXI" - lanacion.com Avisos fúnebres Horarios de vuelos LA NACION Móvil RSS Solo texto Archivo Miércoles 21 de abril de 2010 | Publicado en edición impresa La socióloga Inés Aguerrondo, experta en temas educativos, consultora de la Unesco y ex secretaria de Educación de la Nación (1993-1999), está convencida de que la escuela tal como la conocemos y la forma en que hoy se ofrece la educación "murieron con la sociedad industrial y ya no le sirven a la sociedad del siglo XXI". Aguerrondo es consultora del Instituto Internacional para el Planeamiento de la Educación (dependiente de la Unesco). Plantea la necesidad de crear nuevos espacios para la enseñanza, a los que llama "entornos de aprendizaje", y sostiene que hay dos agendas superpuestas: la de la mirada hacia atrás, sobre lo que deberíamos mejorar respecto de la educación tal como la conocemos, y la agenda de una mirada prospectiva, que estudie qué se debe hacer con la educación de aquí para adelante. -Aludió a un tema clave. -Totalmente de acuerdo.
