Va prezentam pe Ingrid Pricop eleva din clasa a 3-a, care recent a participat la concursul european de patinaj, unde a obtinut un loc remarcabil: locul 1. O lectie de ambitie si efort pe care o fetita  firava si delicata ne-a aratat-o. O putere a fragilitatii pe care rar am intalnit-o . Va atasam si niste poze pentru a admira-o pe gheata.

Acest workshop a fost unul plin de evenimente (drama, jocuri, concursuri, etc)  dar din pacate nu am prea iesit afara.

to come soon

Did you know that there are almost 100,000 chemicals made by humans? Some of these are known to be highly poisonous (toxic). Many of these chemicals are deliberately poisonous because people use them for killing things – and have in times of war used some to kill each other. Some toxic chemicals  accumulate  so top predators like bears, dolphins and people can be badly affected.

Pollution is now such a big thing that it affects people and the animals, plants and complex web of life that humans depend on over the whole planet. For example, when people burn coal, mercury, there is a lot of pollution. ( this is just an example♦)

Can you imagine that:

<In 2010, waste plastic which ended up in the world’s oceans was the same as “five plastic grocery bags filled with plastic for every foot of coastline in the world”. Shocked? Find out more about the problem with plastic in this  guide >

and in case you don’t  read the above guide/site, I write here another shocking information:
