  5. Can you guess by any chance what book are we going to read this year? How did you make your guess?
    I guess that this year we are going to read the book “The Wizard of Oz”, I made my guess because of the song’s name. In the book “The Wizard of Oz” the main characters go through a yellow brick road to the city.

    Have you ever had to go on a long journey to get somewhere special or to get help from someone special? How and when?
    I think that the longest journey I have made to get somewhere special was to go to Madrid to see mine and my family’s friends, who before lived here in Cáceres, but because of some problems they needed to move from Cáceres to Madrid. My family and they, before moving to Madrid, we met everyday, but now we can only see like ten days in a year. We all miss them, but it is a relationship that will never end.

    Did you get there, and did you get the help?
    Yes, the most beautiful moment is when we arrive Madrid or they arrive Cáceres and we see as for the first time in a while, but also is very hard to say goodbye without knowing how and when are we going to see us again.

    What are dreams?
    In my opinion dreams are personal impossible things that someone has to reach or get. Each of us have different dreams and we call them dreams because we think that it is impossible that this will happen.

    Why do we dream when we sleep?
    I think that we dream when we sleep because it is when our mind is more clear about other things that distract us from our dreams.

    What purposes do dreams serve?
    The purpose of a dream is to convert something possible into impossible because we are afraid to do it.

    Have you ever had to go on a long journey to get somewhere special or to get help from someone special? How and when?

    -Yes, I have traveled a long journey to get to one of my favorite or special places but the truth is that I have never done it to get help from someone.


    Did you get there, and did you get the help?

    -No, I have never been to a special place to get help from someone.

    What are dreams?

    -For me dreams are stories or events that happen in people's heads when they are asleep or even when they are awake. When we dream many times we are not conscious and when we wake up we know that we have dreamed something but we do not remember well what or we just remember a part but the images are blurred. Dreams can be controlled by our feelings about the day, what happened to us or things that scare us. But for me dreams are a parallel place where many times you do not want to leave it and return to reality.

  10. -Yes, once I went to Barcelona to see some friends and we drove it took two days but it was worth it.
    -No,I didn´t recieve help
    -Dreams are a universal human experience that can be described as a state of consciousness characterized by sensory, cognitive, and emotional events during sleep. The person who is dreaming has less control over content, visual images, and memory activation.
    -When we dream, our brain tries to solve the problems that occupy us during the day. Therefore, sleeping can be the solution to a problem that we cannot solve.
    -Dreams consolidate our memory and also,the recovery of our memories is more effective after a good sleep.

    Dreams are basically stories and images that our mind creates while we sleep.
    We dream while we are sleeping because of REM (rapid eye movement), that is a stage that we pass 90 minutes later we fall sleep.
    One widely held theory about the purpose of dreams is that they help you store important memories and things you've learned, get rid of unimportant memories, and sort through complicated thoughts and feelings. Research shows that sleep helps store memories.

    Dreams are like movies that happen in our mind while we are sleeping.
    This is caused because of the process the brain does during the night, as memories or information that has been absorbed throughout the waking day. Sometimes you can remember what you have dreamed, but other times you can´t.
    There are some theories about dreams that says that if you dream something twicw times, it will come true. Also, if you dream with a specific color or animal, this can mean how stressed you are, or how you feel.
