Writing Task

My dear Claudia,
   How have you been, I am so happy  to write you, because in this two weeks I meet a person, a new student in my class, his name is Robert, he is very stupid, I dont like him, because he interrupts my conversations all the time, he steals my pencils all the time and my schoolbag to make jokes on me. He is very detestable, but in the Europe trip I talked to him and I discovered he is very funny, he talked to me about her interests and we have many interests in common.
    He is very funny Claudia, my first impression was that he was a very detestable person, a person whom I needed to kill... you understand, but with the time, I knew her, and my first impressions changed, and now I see the real person that Robert is.
    Robert is a lot like me. He likes the same things that I do, is very strange, it is like looking at me in the mirror, I found my mirror I found my best friend well... you are my best friend Claudia, but I found my best friend with the same interests that I have.
     One day, I show you Robert to you, is very funny, you will like him. The other day Robert invited me to his country house, it has very long fields and has many animals, is so beautiful! Well I need to go, my mother is calling me to have lunch, good bye Claudia, take care, bye!!!

HOW TO INTEGRATE CRITICAL THINKING TO YOUR INTERNAL ASSESSMENT

a. What is the key issue that the photo shows?
 -Is denoted those who have tattoos, and people that have tattoos, other people will do for them, however, a tattoo does not change the person.

b. How are tattoos stereotyped in different societies? Refer to The Maori culture (New Zealand), USA and Chile.
-The stereotypes of tattoos are very different in many places, in some places, by their culture or beliefs, tattoos mark a belief or status symbol in culture, on the other hand, some tattoos have changed, literally, how to use a tattoo as a fashion symbol or symbol of some social group underground.

c. How important or relevant are tattoos for some people in defining their individuality or identity?
-It is important for them, as the tattoos mark who are actually defined in their culture, defining its status, what is, and what they represent, a tattoo is part of their culture.

d. Why are tattoos considered / not considered Art?
-For some is considered an art as it is inthe form that can express the art right through the human body, a way to bring a painting, picture, design, in the body, that requires a very special skill, an artist almost.


 Write a reflective 5-paragraph writing on your blogs based on your notes. This is graded.
-Not a problem, a tattoo expresses what the person wants to express, a tattoo has a story, a tattoo represents more than a thousand words, and express what we really feel and want to show, but few understand what a tattoo changes a person, a tattoo is what people in the background, really feel, everyone always say that with tattoos are a bad subject, however does not have to be that way. I've known people with tattoos, great people, who are not bad people, they are people of shirt and tie, whose tattoo expresses a not so admirable drawing for other people, but however, and is tattoo represents his family.
