This piece of news is about language development and communication in humans.
The news talk about a 16-month baby named Tom, born in May that still does not talk but can perform other activities such as slither underneath the sofa. In psychology, this is related to the ideas of Piaget, in that childre have mental mechanisms to learn their nature and the environment in which they grow and then will develop until adulthood. Whether in terms of intelligence, logical operations, the concepts of number, space and time, etc.
Theories about the earliest forms of human communication were possibly the primitive gestures and language may have evolved from instinctual sounds or cries. For example, the Gestural theory suggests that early man developed the language by communicating with hand movements and body.
On the other hand, says that babies around the world start talking about saying the words typical "mom and dad" is how repetitive words with consonants would be the preferred way for babies to start talking, although every child speaking at different ages, for example the famous Einstein spoke at 3 years and Picasso first spoke to 18 months, so that mothers do not have to worry about when their babies speak because everyone will eventually. The premise that babies can communicate before they can speak was investigated by the scientist José García, in late 1980. Garcia suggested that even at six months, hearing babies of hearing parents can begin to learn basic signs.

La isla Bajo el Mar : :

The last book I read called "The island in the sea", is of the Chilean writer Isabel Allende.
This book was a gift from my boyfriend for my birthday..
Well, the story is about the life of an eighteenth-century slave named Zarité and the fight for freedom. The story takes place in several locations, but focuses on Santo Domingo. Zarité is a mulatto woman who at age 9 is sold as a slave to the French Toulouse Valmorain. There are other characters in the book, which are very interesting, as Violette, who is engaged in prostitution, Loula, the woman who protects her, Tante Rose, who is the healer, Celestine or Tante Mathilde, the cook of the plantation.
In the course of history, it takes forty years in the life of this woman, is counted as the exploitation of slaves that occurred on that island. Then she reached freedom for which he had fought hard and also lives a love story. The book ends up telling the story of a child conceived by Zarité and Valmorain.
I really liked this book because it tells a true story about the exploitation that might occur in many parts of the world, but specially with several characters who are magical. You tells the story of several women who are key and gives a different value because it demonstrates the importance of the strength of women to bring up the family. And especially with the history of Zarité, which is the example of a fighter.

Bicentennial activities...
Well, during the days of the bicentennial activities I really enjoyed the thinks I did. I went with my family to my brother’s house located in the borough of Puente Alto and danced all day long. We ate and drank a lot. I also went to the discotheque with my friend Natalia and my sister Pamela, so I started this week very tired. I think that is why I would be resting this weekend, taking advantage of the days in bed and recovering.
Unfortunately, this weekend a friend celebrating her birthday at home, which is located within a great plot in the borough of Lonquen, so I'll have to make an effort to assist jajaj, as you can see you, these days have been very enjoyable for me . You could also attend and I highly recommend this place to everyone.
I've been there several times since my best friend lives there and is very fun because there is a great swimming pool. The house has a fireplace and at night we sat around the campfire to sing and drink.
Well, I will go because I’m invited to the home to celebrate the birthday and be inviting me, and I can not attend. You neither!! This place is very recommend because is beautiful.I recommend you wear a jacket because it is very cold there and also I recommend them to all care during the day friday and saturday people be careful when you go to have fun and when you drive a car.

Tiki tiki tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
I love the month of September, is one of my favorite months because people are less stressed, people want to have fun and enjoy family and friends. Especially in a year like this, the bicentennial year where there are many activities for fun! .
In this celebration, we'll gather with my family in the house that my brother has recently purchased in the community of Puente Alto , we will be sharing all day, eating "empanadas" and “asado”, there will be many delicious things to eat. I also hope to see my friends with whom we have long been able to meet.
I do not need to spend much money at this time, because with something simple you can enjoy incredibly. The important thing is celebrate family.
Every year I intend to learn to dance cueca and I try, but after a bit I forget steps, so hopefully this year can practice a little more this wonderful dance
jijiji :)

Education

I think that the people who manage the education would never accept education as a right but a product to be consumed...This goes against my thinking, because I think that education should be free for all, quality of education is very important along with equal access. The universities in Chile are different in relation to the quality of education they offer (for example the private universities and the public universities) . The education is a system that excludes and is not for all the people.
This issue always ends up in violence :( .
I think more radical actions are needed, is clear that the privatization of the education is not a new issue on the Chilean educational system and is a problem for the whole society.
If the young people from a country can’t develop themselves in equal,probably the country won’t be able to reach a real development either. I think that the state should be responsable about the public services, especially education. About of the Universidad de Chile, I think that even if is a state university, is really expensive to study and I fear that the university system slowly begins to privatize. Especially with the new government and the minister of education...
España

A country that I would like to visit is Spain. I've always liked that country and because it has a rich history and is very beautiful. I also love the flamenco dance and music, actually, now I am taking flamenco classes.
One of its beautiful cities is Barcelona, which has great castles that someday I would like to know. I would someday go on vacation, but also I dream of going to Spain to study and get a major in psychology. I have a friend who lives in Barcelona and has visited me at home. I would go alone, but it would be better going along with my boyfriend because he has friends living there and he would also like to travel to Spain. The journey I have not planned and neither I have saved the money to travel, but I do when I'm working...

First term :)
My first term
Hello friends, ¿how are you? hope you well. I remember my first term with happiness and good memories because it was entertaining and I started meeting people, I remember friends and in the first week there was a lof of distraction and funny.
I remember that last year I failed a course and that was in the second semester, which was a problem for me and I was sad because I thought I had done enough to pass the course, but I got a 3,9 as a final grade. This course was very difficult and required many hours of study. In the other course got good mark. I also worked, so I had to organize my time well to study and to perform both activities.
