Day to day ways to protect our environment

Be mindful of what you throw away. Can it be donated? Can it be saved? Recycled? Composted? The dumpster should be the last resort. So much of what we use can be reused, and not just thrown away. Find out what you can do with all of the things you usually throw out to ensure that you are not wasting things that can be saved. Waste doesn’t magically disappear when you throw it out.
Don't leave chargers plugged in. Another small way to reduce your energy consumption. phone chargers and laptop leads constantly left in the socket will continue to use a small amount of electricity, completely uneccesarily. Take a second to pull them out.
Make sure to turn off the sink when you brush your teeth. You could save five gallons of water a day if you do.

SELF-ASSESSMENT

Now I think I can express myself better, I can explain what I want too, I have learnt a lot of new vocabulary this term, expecially of crimes and I learned how to describe well a picture. Also I learned a lot of things of economy and the conomic sectors. In physical education I improved in badminton and I learned how to do an acrosport coreography. There are things that I like more and less than others and this term I like too much to do Kanya's project with Marina and Eva, because I have learnt many things that I didn't know, and also it wasn't a borring projet. Outaide the English class we have done the project as I thing before, but also we read a book of Marco Polo. I think I have to improve a little of grammar. About culture we have read about some criminals such as Franck Abagnale and David Hampton, and somethings about missunderstandings at travels.
