First Reflection


                                                                  First Reflection


After finishing our summary on desert police patrols, my teacher gave us lots of advice; such as – looking at the title of the passage, skimming for the main idea, and looking more closely at the opening and closing paragraphs. The teacher also advised us to omit all names of people and all the quotations of the passage. We were also told to look at the broad subject, not only the individual's role.

In our second summary, which is the first assessed task, we wrote about road accidents that became the biggest reason for child mortality in the UAE. The teacher kindly advised us to keep to a minimum figures and percentages since it was so important in this summary to present some facts. The high rates of accidents and mortality and low percentages of the usage of car seats by local car passengers are the major points of the summary.

In our third summary, which is the second assessed task, we discussed a new eco tour in waters off the Palm Jebel Ali, supporting a traditional diving experience for both locals and tourists. It was quite uncomplicated and we learned a lot from what we had done and got good scores. We think that the summary work has been fascinating and helpful for all of us.
