Perspective on "Down on the Island"

After reading "Down the Isalnd " by Jim Cooper I started thinking about my education and wondering what it will be of me, If i din't had the education I had? The things i learned more were spanish, ciencie and social story. Because in math i din't had professor on hight, we always were doing sustitutions. By the fact we were so bored of the sustitutions that we just to copy the excersise wrong so that the teacher singned us the notebook. My english is good because my family lives in the United States and i use to visited them on the summers. My school was horrible on english. I mean the teacher they had din't had the skills to teach the students. So I can say that can speack it well, but my righting... Yes ! I need helpe some times. But after all i fell good, because i know that i can defende my self, and i love talking in english.

On chapter one Cooper was really impress how alot of students din't know english or they din't care about it. He saw how hard was to us to learn another language, because we see here that they don't care. I like the fact that he visited public schools and see how they were teaching. But it is a chaim how the education in Puerto Rico is afecting us in a future. Because what we learned now a day  it's what we are going to teach our future people. And every day it's worst. On the esconde chapter he talks about the copy cat, and how students live based on that. You know, it's hard some times getting use to some structure that we din't learned about. A can talk about that, because i went trought that on my school with my match class. I'm not saying that we copied in test by on the sustitutions we were supposed to the, well yes. Or most of the time we haded all wrong just to have the profesor signature. The part he talks about how students, helpe each other thats really true. But that doesn't mean that we copied. Cause I had done that with my friends but we discuss to theme or the work and then we put different stuff. I know that other people to helped others that does not no the language gives them the work. Because I have done that, and we do it because we do not want  that people to get a bad grade on his class or fail. We do it because we know that we can helped them to come out good or just to be good friends.
