Reflection


Faisal started his presentation by giving an introduction about Thomas Edison. Then he gave some information about him and his inventions.

Faisal had good language and interesting pictures and useful information. He just alone but he did a wonderful job. At the end, he received many questions; some of them were presented off the subject, but he could answer them. I liked his work and I was very interested when I followed him.

Reflection
Firstly, Gaith started talking about house maids in the UAE and about their problems. He said that maids commit a lot of crimes. Then Abdulaziz said: some  maids don’t care about the houses or the child because they are not theirs. Our kids grow up to have bad manners. Then Gaith began talking about our agenda. Abdulaziz prefers to treat maids nicely to decrease their bad attitude and to prevent most of the crimes that maids commit. My opinion is we should raise awareness in parents and we should do a campaign to raise awareness.
