After watching the video I do agree with Partrica Ryan because when you know a second language it will exspand your knowlege and can help you have a better understanding of other cultures. I think that knowing a second language is good because it can help you when getting a job, applying for college, or meeting new people. It is improtant to know a second lanuage because not everyone in the United States speaks english so by speaking an another language it will help you break down barriers. I also think that it is imporant to speak another language because it can not only benefit you but your family or friends as well. For example, if your parents go on a vacation to Mexico it will make it easier for them to understand the locals and they will have a better time because they understand the language.

In my current event it talked about teachers in Acapulco, Mexico who  not show up for the new school year  because of threats and fear for their saftey. Two teachers of the school had be kidnapped just eight days before the new year was about to start. Some teachers said that they had seen men driving around their local elementary school with rifles in their back seats. The teachers who had reported what they had seen made sure that their names be not mentioned for their saftey. My article also talked about teachers had been getting notes from gang members about payrolls.

Dayneicha's First Blog Entry

This semester I hope to understand and speak spainsh better. I think blogging is kinda cool because you can exspress your thoughts and opinions but instead of it being in a notebook or diary it's online. I have never blogged before. I think it would be useful because when Im in college my professor might want me to do a blog for his/ her's class and now I know how to. There isnt really anything speial to know about me as the semister progresses.
