Glogster

glogster:

I think that this project was very interesting because I learned about how other children go to school and with what conditions. With my partner we investigated about two schools; Ruben Castro and Aconcagua.

Similarities and differences

Ruben Castro and Aconcagua Schools

Ruben Castro School is an institutional school and Aconcagua is an subsidized school. Also Ruben Castro does not give that much impotence to English as Aconcagua School.
This tells us that Ruben Castro does´t have much Bilingualism. In Aconcagua School they have extra academies, such as sports, dance, quimic, technology, etc. But in Ruben Castro they only have two academies, that are art and sports.
Ruben Castro is specialized in Language, but Aconcagua is very good at Maths and Science competitions. In Ruben Castro they don´t have technology classes incorporated. But in Aconcagua school, they have technology incorporated. Ruben Castro has a robotic competition also, and Aconcagua School does´t have one.

5 reasons to study in The Mackay School

The Mackay School
Carecteristics

1)Sports and fairplay: this school practices sports to compite with  other schools. But what is most important, besides of the results, is learning to make new friend and having fairplay.


2)Academic achievments: the mission of the school is to give the students a good teaching leason for a good future of each one.


3)Nationally none: the Mackay School is known by many people of Chile. Specially recognized as the Old Macks wich is the rugby team.


4)Masculinity: in this school study only boys but not girls.


5)Education 3.0: on these two past years our school has importes M.A.C computers in every classroom with a reproducing data.
Thanks to this tecnology our students are each day more in touch with actual tecnologys.
This is why I invite you to study in The Mackay School.
