Schools in Scotland vs Spain (Umber’s Diary)

 

I worked in two schools in Almería for five months and I noticed some differences between the school systems in Spain and Scotland.

The first very noticeable difference is that pupils in Scotland are obliged to wear school uniform every day whereas Spanish students are allowed to wear whatever they want. High school children/teenagers will typically wear a white shirt, a tie, trousers or a skirt, a blazer and black shoes. We even had a uniform for PE (Physical Education). I liked wearing a uniform in school because it meant I didn’t have to decide what to wear to school everyday. However some students would prefer to wear whatever they wanted and we would sometimes have debates about this in English class.

Another difference I have noticed is the timetable. In Almería classes would begin at 8:15am and finish at 2:45pm but in Scotland high school begins at 8:45am and finishes at 3:35pm. I found it strange that there was no lunch break in between classes in Almería. In Scotland we have 2 classes then a break for 15 minutes. Then another 2 classes followed by the lunch break which lasted 45 minutes and then another 3 classes. However in my old high school we would finish at 2:45pm on Wednesday and Friday. On Monday,Tuesday and Thursday we would finish at 3:35pm.

In Almería students would stay in the same class for a lot of their classes. Teachers would go to their next class depending on what lesson they were teaching next. However in Scotland it is the students that have to walk to their different classes and the teacher stays in the same classroom.

 

Questions

  1. Do you think Spanish school students should wear a uniform? If yes/no, why?
  2. Which school timetable(Scottish or Spanish) do you prefer and why?
  3. Would you like to experience school in a different country? If you could choose a country to go to school in for a month, which country would you choose?

The use of Technology : Umber’s diary

Hello everybody I hope you are all well! Today I wanted to discuss the use of technology during lockdown. There are many pros and cons to using technology during this time but in my opinion there are more positives than negatives.

Thanks to technology we are able to keep in touch with our family and friends that we are not able to see at the moment. We can use apps like FaceTime, Skype and Zoom to see our loved ones online and chat to them. Although it is not the same as seeing them in person , it is still an excellent way to connect with other people. I have been doing Zoom calls with my cousins almost every day. We do a quiz about general knowledge and have a new host every week. It is a fun activity for us as we learn new facts and talk to each other simultaneously!

People also use social media applications (apps) like Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter to keep busy and entertained. As a result there has been an increase in screen time on mobile phones. I don’t think there is a problem with using social media apps. However I think that they should be used in moderation. We need to give our eyes a break from looking at screens and should try to do other activities like reading a book, doing a jigsaw puzzle or drawing. A negative aspect of social media is the constant stream of information we receive from news outlets and other websites. It is good to stay updated with the news and to know what is going on in the world. On the other hand an overload of information can increase anxiety and worries. Remember to do everything in moderation!

Questions

1- Write down the words in bold and write their meanings.

2- Write a short paragraph about your opinion on using technology (social media, TV, game consoles) during quarantine.

3- How do you use technology during this time?
