How to Organise a Portfolio

Papers, papers, papers. Students often feel overwhelmed by the number of papers they receive from their teachers and it may seem that throwing them in the boot of their car is the best solution. However, it is actually quite easy to organize your class notes into a neat portfolio. Let me outline the steps.
First, find all your papers. You can look for missing papers on the HD1 website. You can also ask a friend and photocopy his papers. Second, sort your papers into logical divisions e.g reading, writing, listening. Next, put your papers into the different sections. After that, buy a binder and some coloured dividers. Write section headings for the dividers and match them with a table of contents page. Finally, make a label for the side of the binder. Include important information e.g. class code, name etc.
As we have seen it is easy to make a portfolio. You will be proud of your neat, well-organised work.

Making a Cup of Tea

Making a cup of tea is an easy process, but you need to follow the procedure to make one. If you follow this procedure you will end with a great, tasty cup of tea.
First, fill the kettle with the water and switch the kettle on to heat the water. While the water is heating bring the teapot and start to put the tea bags or tea leaves in it. When the water is boiling start to pour it in the teapot and stir it. Add milk and sugar to the tea cup as you like. At the end don’t forget to stir the tea in the cup before you drink it.
As you can see making a cup of tea is an easy process and doesn’t need much effort but following the procedure which I write will make you end with the tastiest cup of tea you have ever drunk.

Traveling to U.S

In 1996 I traveled to the U.S by Air Force Army for three months to study English with other students from the same division. Everything was arranged by the Air Force before traveling to the U.S and while we were there.
We were thirty five students separated into groups. Each group went to a different state. Our group went to Boston where we studied in Babson College. Two of my friends and I lived with a great family. They where teaching us and at the weekend they were arranging tours for us to show us the places. The college was wonderful because of the environment, friendly teachers and supervisors and the students in the college were from everywhere because it was summer time. We had a trip with the college to Canada where we spent one week. By the end of the study we came back with beautiful memories and good friends who we meet there but there is nothing like home sweet home.

Making Butter From Fresh Milk

Making butter from fresh milk is quite a long and difficult procedure and you have to follow all steps carefully. If you do so, you will produce high quality butter.
Firstly, check for the quality and fat content, and then leave it to cool for a while. After that separate the cream from it and start churning the cream. Then you should drain the buttermilk from the milk and place it in a jar where you will wash it with cold water to remove the remaining buttermilk. At the end you should add a small amount of salt for flavor then cut and wrap the butter and store it in a fridge where it will be ready after some time to be eaten.
As you can see from what I have written making butter from fresh milk is a long and difficult procedure but if you follow the steps carefully you will get tasty butter.
