If I could change something in my country, I would start of Ecology. Most of all I don’t like the fact that in our country air is very dirty. And for cleaning it only picking up the trash is not enough. I think first of all we need to close the exit of soil. For example, in America or Emirates under the trees there are sheets on the ground that help to keep the soil not to come out, when it is bad weather or wind. I wish to install water automatic systems all of the country for green arias. And in construction arias we need to close the flow of dirt in air and on the ground with protecting sheets. I want that all to rearise in Armenia. In our days in Armenia when it is raining all cars and windows are in the mud and dirt. Of course, it becomes of the cars and fabric wastes too. This all means that our air is very dirty and we must quickly correct this mistake.

Your school trips. Tell about your last trip or about the trip which you liked most of all.
In our school we always have trips. We are taken in different directions and each one is a unique place. My last trip was Arates. We went to Arates for three days. On the way we overcame a mountain on top of which it was located Smbataberd. The ascent took 2 hours, we covered 3 km. The ascent was given to us with great difficulty, but also with pleasure. Arr, we were told the rules of Arates. At night, we took turns watching the fire so that it did not go out. Our next day started with a morning pre-workout, after which we had breakfast. We had military training. We learned how to hold the weapon correctly. Then we started shooting. That day we also went to Khachadzor. The road was dangerous. They were very beautiful scenes. There were crosses painted on the rocks in Khadazor. We also harvested crops. At the end of the day, we gathered around the campfire. We danced together around the fire. It was our last day. Of course, we had a pre-training session in the morning. After breakfast we had first aid lessons. We all gathered together and said goodbye to Arates. During the whole trip, we saw many beautiful, wonderful and unique places. As with all trips, this time we had wonderful memories and unforgettable moments that will stay in our memory forever.
Educational camps in our school. Which camp do you prefer-summer or winter? Why? Tell about your favourite activity during the camps.
We have two camps every year at school. One is winter and the other is summer. During the camps, we choose the squad leaders we want and spend our three weeks of camp with them. My last camp was winter. My friends and I were selected for the same squad and we spent those wonderful days together. In the morning we discussed our plans and activities, then we played various games, both oral and board games. Making our daily plans etc. Every day was unique and full of events. One of the most memorable days for me was our kitchen day when we made cookies. We were all divided into groups and prepared different things. In the end, we sat down at the table together and started eating, appreciating each other. The next memorable day for me was the day of figure skating. That day was full of fun. I can skate and I helped my friends to learn to skate too. And it worked for me because my friend finally started to skate very well and smoothly. And so our trip passed unnoticed and very funny.
Folk music and dance classes in our school. The song and dance which I like most of all.
In our school we go through national dances and songs. I think it is very important to always remember and preserve our traditions. We learn different national dances. Every morning before classes start, we dance and sing for 20 minutes. I think this is a very good way to teach children and remind them of our national traditions. We also have media Fridays, for which we prepare for days and in the end we present ourselves very nicely and with pleasure. Folk songs and dances came from very early times when people always sang and danced while working, at weddings or other events. My favorite and most memorable dance is Kerdzi. We had danced it together in different classes and that day became very memorable for us. Our song and dance teachers always work with us very lovingly and usually include me and my friends in some events.
Sports and arts in my life
I have always loved sports. I have tried many sports: swimming, national and Latino dances, skiing, tennis, cycling, surfing, gymnastics. All sports are different and special, but they have similarities. Every sport has its hidden secret. And you absolutely have to get into that sport to earn the key that unlocks the secret. I have enjoyed all these sports, but I have found my true sport – figure skating. For me, it is an icy world, where you can skate freely and release all the emotions gathered in you through skating.
I have been practicing figure skating for 8 years. I participated in many competitions, even abroad. I have many prizes and medals. This love for figure skating arose in me suddenly. I was 7 years old when I had to participate in the competition for the first time. At that time I wasn’t skating well, but I wanted to win and I started practicing hard all day and I got the result by taking the first place. All those competitions have helped to develop a competitive and winning character in me. I think my character will help me to go through all difficulties, not to get depressed, not to give up and, of course, try to achieve my goals.
Blog as an educational tool (area). How long have you had your blog? How often do you update your blog? The advantages and disadvantages of using blog as an educational tool?
Blogs are very important for our student. We work on our blogs every day. In addition to domestic ones, we can post additional materials, projects, post-liberation works, information, etc. on the blog. If everyone works like that on their blogs, then when someone is looking for information, they will open our work and we will facilitate and help people to some extent. We update the materials, post new materials almost every day. I think that in the course of life it is possible that we will need these materials or be interested again. Then we can go to our blogs to review them and add new and interesting facts.
What are the advantages of studying at Mkhitar Sebastatsi EduComplex
I came to the Mkhitar Sebastatsi educational complex from the 7th grade. Our school is special and differs from other schools in many ways. Our school doesn’t pressure students and tries to teach students to achieve everything independently. The school introduces students different fields: such as of foreign languages, arts and sports. Most of the time, our school invites specialists from different fields to the school. They help interested students in a certain field with detailed knowledge. Also, our school always takes us on trips to different parts of the country.
Topic to write 1. The Internet in my life. The advantages and disadvantages of Media education.
I think the Internet is one of the most important discoveries. When people think of the Internet, they imagine phones, but that’s not the case. The whole world depends on the Internet. The simplest example is cameras. If there were no cameras, the number of thefts and crimes would increase. A lot of important equipment that investigates natural disasters and so on is also dependent on the Internet. And, of course, mobile phones, which a person can use whenever he wants and find out the information he is interested in. People can call, see and talk to each other from different distances. Many people think that because of the Internet, people start talking to each other less and are on the phone all day, but I think that each person decides what to do and can look at the phone only when necessary. A person can watch movies on the phone, but also can read a lot of information or books. Perhaps all people have at least once thought about what life would be like without the Internet, but I am sure that no one could imagine how important the Internet really is in our lives.
