The Pietá

An important piece of art in my life is an sculpture. It is called " The Pietá" by Michelangelo. This is a piece of art that represents the Renaissance. It has the body of Jesus on the lap of his mother Mary(p) after the Crucifixion.

The first time I saw it(P) was in my grandma´s house. She had an art book which contained pictures of the most famous pieces of art in human history. Besides, I had an important religious influence from her to analyse the Bible and Jesus life(P)for that reason(P) I was so impressed with it.


When I saw this sculpture in the picture, I was fascinated, because it was a perfect representation of Jesus and Mary, from my point of view(WO). I was 8 years old, and I couldn´t understand how Michelangelo had done it.


The Pietá is a fantastic and almost perfect representation of humanity anf(SP) history, it is an incomparable piece of art.


ERROR CORRECTION ACTIVITIES

Through these corrections activities, I have been progressing and advancing in noticing my own errors or mistakes. This process of correcting people´s posts has been positive and effective in the purpose of identifying and learning how to observe students writing and their common mistakes. The idea of correcting through blogs is a dynamic and technological tools to apply on students learning. Besides, they love to write and giving opinions, students are avid of interaction and participation, and ths mechanism is effective when there is participation and commitment.

Students who have been corrected, appreciate the feedback that we gave them. Students and future teachers are part of a dual process, in which both are important, in terms of how both can help to each other to learn and advance. This idea of sharing experiences has been benefitial for both parts, but we have learnt more about correcting mistakes, respecting people´s ideas and how those mistakes are not more important than the content. I mean, the form can not be more important than people´s thoughts. As a future teacher, I have to consider do not affect their free writing, their dreams.
