Plastic Surgery for Children???

Plastic surgery is becoming an addiction and that addiction is now affecting todays youth. If you click on the link below you will see a clip of the self proclaimed "Human Barbie". She has spent over £500,000 on cosmetic surgery and now has her "enhancements" done free of charge as long as she recommends the surgeon. What is the world coming to???
Within the link the "Human Barbie" aka Sarah Burge tries to convince her audience she is justified in injecting botox into her 15 year old daughters face.....

What is Education? Estyn

Within our what is education lecture we are having a number of different guest speakers. This week it was a gentleman from Estyn. We found out about the inspection process with education. He showed us the inspection criteria which schools are marked against. I felt I knew alot about what he was saying through knowing an English teach who has told me alot about how inspections work, however it was interesting. Seen as the gentlemen was very welcoming it made inspections seem less scary for when I become a teacher.

Christmas Technology

Over the Christmas period I noticed there was a great deal of technology being used. From presents to the usual tasks we carried out on a day to day basis.... technology played an integral part of Christmas more so this year than any previous year. From iPads to Kindles to indivuals iphones and blackberrys. Even with the distractions and mountains of presents people could still not function without their smart phones! Children were more interested in playing with Angry birds than their sacks of toys... weldone Santa!
