Talent Fair
This time we made a fair of talents in classes, this was a great idea since the classmates presented their skills to other persons, there were firefighters, confectioners, a companion to henna tattoes, swimmer, Cook, martial arts, and many more. The importance of seeing all these skills is that we can make a difference with our own hands and that nothing prevents us to grow every day.
In class we do exhibitions. I talk about how to make cupcakes and at the end gave to know my final product.

Santiago Gonzalez is most likely in his college class room discussing the intricacies of computer code. Gonzalez is a prodigy who attends the prestigious Colorado School of the Mines. He is fluent in several coding languages and has even come up with some awesome apps, including an interactive puzzle that seems quite fun.
