Hello Miss Ale,
I think the page is very helpful because it helps you know why you don´t have to use plagerism adn tutorial. But I didn´t understand the drawing it was. I didn´t knew if you had to click on somethnig because it has nothing to do the drawing to the expanation. I think the page is great as the blog. We need to practice more so in the biography we are doing with you, we don´t have to use plagarism. That is very important to know or neither you put the sources were you took the information.
See you tomorrow

Hi Ale,

for me plagerisum it is terrible is like robbing others people work or idea. I think this will help us a lot when they ask us to look for information in google or the biographys that you have to do long paragraphs or many. This was a great idea I like it very much we will learn a lot durig this year, one of the reasons is for this blog. Thanks for teachin us some many things.

Miss Alejandraa!
thank you for giving us some things to paraphrase for not to make plagarism. I think plagarisim i sno too good because I like coping all the other peolpe and all the other peolpe ideas. We have to think in our one, we can´t depend on ohter people. If we do plagarism is like in one test we copy the person the is beside.
See you tomorrow! Bye XOXO

Miss Ale,
I think this game helps a lot people that in their lifes without meaning did plagirism. I wouldn't like to be a person that is plagirismized by another person that copied your work. I think it is not fair to do plagirism because maybe that person gave his best to do an effective, good work and then he realised that somebody else copied his work. It is great that you remind us what it was, and this game was to practise a lot avoiding plagirism. It is increidible how people can do this! Plagirism is really bad it is like copy paste I hate plagirism, it is disgusting do plagirism. I am really glad you teach us this kind of subject because now, we learn and know what bad is do that thing that is called PLAGIRISM, I had never heard that word but I knew what the meaning was. I remember that we talked it about at the beggining of the year. In the game I had chosen Maiko because of his t-shirt because cats are cute! The game teached more information!
Good Byeee

Hello Miss Ale
I think plagarism is something very bad because you are using others idea and in the same way someone wrote it and I think it is a good idea that you teach us what not to do so that in the university the wont take us out for plagarism.

Hello Miss Ale,

This really help me recognize the difference between quotating and paraphrasing. If I would paraphrase I would read all the text first, then I will put the text down so as I don't tempt to look and start writting what I remeber and the important things.

SEE YOU ON MONDAY...
