Miss Ale,
Wow it seems amazing that we have already finish the My Hero Proyect, well not actually finished all because we are missing some kids to be accepted and well, we have to see if theres one story featured, but the works for us has already finished, it seems yestarday that we started investigation on our family (if its a family hero) or in other places and now we have already finished. It is already amazing for me to get into the page, put my name and see the essay I have writen among many children from all diferent countries and continents. I am now in the page, and it is incredible how many people write the essays there, I like to Imagen that in a school in for example Tailand they are doing the same proyect as us here in Argentina. I like to think that even tough we are very separated we share the love of writing. I know it is lovely to see your name there, well for me it is, but it would be even better if your essay appears as a featured one (that would be really fantastic for me!) but I think that we must just be happy if they have accepted us, at least that means that they liked our essays. I think we have all worked really hard on this proyect and we should all be proud of ourselves because we did a lot of effort on it. I liked a lot concentration with both parts of my family, because with Marita and Inmigrantes I had tell all the story of my moms family when they inmigrate to Peru, and now with this lovely proyect I get to know a lot of people that I didn´t know they existed or haven´t talk to them in years and this give me the oportunity. What I like most of all is that I´ve heard like 40 stories of my family all throughout this year thanks to school and spetially this proyects we are finishing now in Language and the same proyect but in spanish we had been doing for almost all the year. We have worked a lot!! I really like the way we can realte things, it makes learning more fun for me. Today it was the touch typing competition test and I did very good, though I expected more, but as I always said I get so nervous that I end doing little. I did 45 wpm and 99% of acuracy. I hope I can win some housepoint for Fleming. Now that the Interhouse has finish I feel more realxed , but I am still very anxious for the test you will give on Tuesday. I hope it is alright.
Thanks for including this lovely proyect in put learning, we have learned a lot.
See you,

I don't really understand, my essay is in the page, I don't know if they accepted or not, because there are many of the class si I don't know if they put all of them or a lot of them. But none is still featured!
Well, I am really glad we did this projects now I can tell my grandfather to read it ( he is my hero's son) and I think he will be very proud about it. I right now when I saw mine went running threw all the house to tell my parents, and I was really happy. But know I don't becuase there are a lot. So tomorrow you can tell me if I have to wait until they choose one to be featured!!!!
WELL, MISS ALE
THANK YOU FOR LETING US KNOW
PLEASE, EXPLAIN TO ME AGAIN TOMORROW
SEE YOU SOON

Dear Miss Ale,
I loved making this project ! I enjoyed it a lot and I loved to tell about my family. I feel so proud of it, I feel very honoured. Its interesting to hear all the things that families have done and all the Inmigrant project that we were doing with Marita. It is very surprising how many storys we can tell, we come from so different families. I think we can relate this project to Maritas project, becuse many people of our class (6c) did some Inmigrant heroe.
I think it is good, to choose someone you admire and you think is your hero. With these project, we have reflected a lot and in some cases we have discovered a lot of secrets our families have, that we didnt know, and some, are incredible, because if you think about it, many people are from other country, and know we are here in Argentina in a Brittish school ( that is also " an inmigrant" because it was founded by scottish people who were inmigrants and because it has many things that we learn in brittish and not in any other inglish.), I like to think like that, its so awsome ! It is very weird how your hole life can change, also your hole family by only moving to another place. It is totally another thing, different languages ( maybe not ) , cultures, traditions, habbits... Its very different ! I had never thought it that way, until know. I am glad I have made this project. I got to know a lot about others families because when I ask what they were going to write about, I got a lot of information ! I have never thought that my classmates could have such storys ! I also got to know ( in the Marita project ) a lot of things about our school, that I certainly didnt know !. But well, Im glad I know them know !! If I didnt make this project, there is so much I would have missed, thats a pitty. I hope you keep doing " my hero project " every year, because I think it would be really good for everyone to express themselves in their writing and write freely about someone they chose as an example, as a person that they admire. It is very fun ! I appreciate what we have done and that we did. Also all the work you have done to teach us all this about essays, know that I think about it, it is very useful ! In addition, it is also very fun ! Some people think that they are boreing and that they are not any useful, but I think they are. To sum up, I am very glad we did this project. I couldnt be more happier !!!
SEE YOU TOMORROW ! THANK YOUR FOR THIS LOVELY PROJECT !
BYE BYE ,

Ale.
Thank you for making this effort of correcting the work and of checking it again because it is the first time we write something for a benefit, a reason. I am very glad that my ESSAY was accepted and now I am Ancious to know if it will be featured or not. I think that you deserve the 80% of the credits because you corrected them you cheked them and you taught how to write a hero essay.
Thank you.!

This project has been really exciting, interesting and entertaining. I think that many kids really enjoyed it because you can do it with a partner and share what you both think about this important person. The one that i had to write about was Eleanor Roosevelt. I think that her life is very interesting. In my house i looked for more information because it was really nice. I learnt a lot about not only my hero but when sometimes i heard other groups speaking i could get to know about another hero. I can't believe that we only have to do the presentation of this hero. We have been working a lot with this project and we put everything we got and i think that we all did and excellent job. I am practicing for the presentation and reading the powerpoint all so that the things i didn't understand i can finally understand them. I showed the powerpoint i did to my parents and they really liked. They told me that they knew more things about her so i am gong to put them but first i have to ask Sofi S if i can put it because i try for the two of us to know what we put and see if it is important for the two of us. Some other things my parents didn't know so i was glad that i could be the one teaching my parents about this wonderful person. I was admmited. When some kids said that they were admmited i was really shocked because it would be an honour to be accepted because not everyone is accpeted. I think that we all did a wonderful job writing this because it was about somebody in our family and it is really meaningful for us. It is really impressive to see your name beside some other kids in an American webpage. You can also see some kids that are from Buenos Aires and am sure that those kids are from St. Andrew's. I am very thrilled to see whose stories are going to be selected as best story of all of them. Today we also did the touch typing interhouse. I did 52 and 99%. I think i was pretty fast. I think i won a couple of lots of points for Fleming. I really liked this project because we could get closer and know more about are families and we can think if some of them are really heroes and personal heroes. It was really nice for us to write this about somebody of your family saying that him or her as a hero. If somebody has there personal hero still alive i think that they will be very proud of their son, Grandchild or more. If my great grandmother would've read what i wrote i bet she would cry a lot. When it is somebody's birthday i always write something nice to them and they always finish crying of what i wrote to them and how they will keep it in their hearts for ever. I also can't believe how many other people are doing this same project as the same time. I would also like to read other Hero essays or the ones that were elected because i think that they are very good. Thank you for letting us do this wonderful project. I really enjoyed it.!!! See you tomorrow!!!

I enjoyed a lot participating in this project!
I find that it was a very intelligent idea to publish them in a page of biographies of heroes!
I had a great time writing my hero and taking part of this great project. I just enter to the school's mail and I recived the mail that said that it was accepted. I feel very glad. Thank you very much for correcting all of our work it is very hard correcting and double cheking !

i really like this project and submit it in a web site even better thaks fr the opportunity.tomas.s
Miss Ale,
I loved this project because:
first: I had to look for information at home of a member of the family that for me had been a hero and in that way I learnt of the person I do in my case of my grandpa Nolly Sirkis. It was a long and nice story that my own grandfather had passed only 70 years ago.
second: I could look for photos and find pictures I didn't know they excisited!!
I'm going to tell you and all the readers of the comment how more all less was the moment that passed Nolly Sirkis!!
Nolly Sirkis was borned in 1931 in Galati, he is my mom's father. He lived for 10 years with his parents with a normal life like me. In 1941 the Nazis invaded Rumania and his family needed to move to Bucarest, the capital, to be safer. He lived during 7 years in aroom of a hotel with his parents. The hotel was bombed and they lost most of their belongings. He never stopped studying, when his parents needed the room because someone camehe went to study to the bathroom because it was the only place that was free. In 1948 his family and him could leave Rumania, they picked a train to Blegium and they took a ship to Buenos Aires. When he arrived he must sit for 23 exams to enter in the last year of secundary school.
He performed well so was falg bearer.
THAT MADE ME VERY PROUD OF HIM BECAUSE HE HAD A TOUGH CHILDHOOD HE HAD THE COURAGE TO KEEP ON WITH HIS STUDIES, WORK, RAISE A GREAT AND BIG FAMILY AND SUCCEED IN LIFE! NOW THAT 60 YEARS HAVE PASSED HE STILLS MEETS WITH HIS FRIENDS WHEN SHE LIVEDIN GALATI, RUMANIA.
I hope you enjoyed my story!!
Thanks miss ale for giving us this great opportunity to know more of our family although its not much of language, is more of story!!
See you tomorrow!!

Dear Miss Ale: I LOVE THIS PROJECT!
I am really happy with this project for different reasons. I think that it is very nice for the person of whom you wrote of, knows that you really appreciate him/her and that may be something really nice to heare because it isn´t that common that you and your story or appreciation appears in the web. I wrote about my grandmother, and when she heard the news she was very very happy and couldn´t belive it, although she doesn´t know very well how to use the computer, I thought it would be nice for her to know what had I wrote of her and so I read to her in English and translate it to Spanish. My parents were very proud to hear that my story had been accepted by this organization and really liked it when I showed it to them. I really loved this priject and wish it hadn´t finished, but although it has finished I do wish that next year or any other year we can have the opportunity to repeat this project, because of haw significant, fun, interesting and inspiring it was for all of us to read the story of other people´s heroe...
MISS ALE THANK YUO VERY MUCH FOR MAKING THIS PROJECT POSSIBLE!!!!!!!
I REALLY APPRECIATE IT VERY MUCH!!!
WISH YOU POST MORE COMMENTS!!!!!!!!
BYE BYE...
SEE YOU SOON...

Miss Ale, I think this hero project was great, really good and its really exiting to know that all our work has been readed by someone and aswell valorted, well also you read it, but someone else and I know that they are reading because of pleasure and because they want to and are interested in doing so, sometimes you feel more proud not only when your mother or friends cogratulate you because of your work but also someone tottally different that may not know you and when he also because judges it doesnt mean he or she is doing it of convinience but also because he likes what you have done or are doing , and that makes me feel proud of OUR PROJECT and all the hard work I had done!
See you.

I MADE A COMMENT ON THE POST OF THE TOUGH TYPING COMPETITION!!
Miss ALE:
I think the project was fun and interesant. I never thought that I was going to learn about all this heroes, and I think it was a very good idea to study aboout them. I found lots of different and fantastic stories about my hero, when I was talking with my father we got envolved on the history and he told me lots of adventures my hero had had. To sum up I think it was a very good idea, and i really enjoy working on it also submiting it in a webpage were lots of people are going to see it.
bye bye

Miss Ale...
I really like working on this project with the felling that people are going to know about my family, and finding out that my family has done stuff really important. Some friends read me their essay and they are really good.
See you tomorrow,

Miss Ale,
You are right, most of us have enjoyed the My Hero project, and I agree it was fun, enjoyable, and easy... We did it all really fast, and I think it was useful for us to learn about people who have made a change in human life... And we still have more to see; in the following classes we will be able to watch the other groups powerpoints, and learn even more.
