We both were hardcore gymnasts. I will support my son in every decision he makes. Rather he'd want to be a fireman or a gymnast. I have reached all of my goals in gymnastics and now my goal is to be a good mother for my son and be there for him.    Dear young ladies,  It was a long time ago, at an Olympic event, a young girl with a great desire to succeed, and many hours of training, has done the impossible, stunned the judges and received a perfect score for the first time in history. In the world of sports, where most gymnasts are men, the female gymnasts among us have to work hard, so people will see that women can accomplish remarkable achievements, just like that young girl. I know how it is like to be the young lady whose dream is to succeed, to succeed and do what she is good at. I appeal to you with a request- fulfill your dream and help develop the female sports. This great industry hasn't made it's potential. In order for women in gymnastics to be really successful, we need the help of every single woman, but especially the help from you young gymnasts. I know sometimes you think to yourselves- am I good enough? Will I make it to the top? And you need to know that the answer is yes! You are strong independent women who can make it because of who you are and your talent that was given to you. Don’t ever doubt yourselves or your abilities! Go out to the world and show what you can do and what you are made of! It's for the world to see that women can do things if they try really hard. In conclusion, don't ever let the fear of not succeeding mess with your mind, and tell you "you are not good enough". Believe in yourself and in the power of women! Go girls! "Hard work has made it easy. That is my secret. That is why I won" says Nadia Comaneci. Nadia Comaneci who was born in 1961 is one of the most famous gymnasts in the history of sports. At the 1976 Olympic Games in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, she was the first person in Olympic history ever to score a perfect 10 in gymnastics. When she was young she learned disciplines and they affected on her life today, therefore she still has the same motivation to succeed in everything she does in her life. She's a perfectionist.** As a matter of fact, the most exiting thing she experienced was ** when she got her first 10. The score board showed 10.00 for the first time and she was so shocked**.** On the interview that was conducted with Nadia, she was asked what inspires her. She said that when she was young, her father gave her a book about a little girl who wanted to make her dream come true and she did her best and made it. She inspired her to make her dreams come true as well. ** It seems to me, that Nadia was very much connected to her dad, since she considers him as her mentor. He helped her during difficult times. ** By the time Nadia was 15 years old, she had met her soon to be husband, in an American Championship in 1976. They got married in 1996. What's more, was that on June 3, 2006 Nadia gave birth to her first son. The child was named Dylan Paul Conner. Furthermore, what Nadia is focusing on right now is to be a good mother for him. Therefore I strongly believe Nadia will support her son in every decision he makes whether, he'd want to be a gymnast or fireman. In conclusion, I think Nadia affected a lot of gymnasts who thought they couldn't succeed and didn't believe in themselves, to try harder and achieve their goals like she did. Why we chose to write about Nadia: At first' we heard about Nadia in English lesson in our old school by our English teacher. We were very impressed by her achievements and we decided to research about her. Nadia Comaneci is an important woman with value's we can relate, since we attend Neve Chana high school (perfection and faith in yourself' knowing that you can do your best). We appreciate all the things she did to achieve her own 100 percent. We think it's important that people would know that a woman can reach perfection. Has it improved your:  ý searching skills  ü summarizing skills  ü writing skills  ü vocabulary level  ý English language skills - Working with the Moodle made things more complicated. We had almost enough time. In the few last lessons it was stressful. - Yes. She tried helping in everything we asked or didn't understand. -not always, When we didn't, the teacher helped us. -Some were easy and fun and some were exhausting. 9.
