# Article 1 : How Finland Keeps Kids Focused Through Free Play















* Summary

  The article is about experience of an American teacher in Helsinki in Finland. He questioned relation between break and attentiveness in a class. According to result, frequent breaks kept students fresh throughout the day. In other words, after shorter recesses, students appeared to be more attentive in the classroom. Also, he questioned which one is good thing that students take a rest inside or outside. Result is the same attentiveness anywhere they take a rest. However, how much break times is very important for the class.
  
* Persuasive

  When I went school, I was very happy at taking a rest. Why did I feel that? Now, I think and say, "Just I like playing with my friends!" So, I felt that breaks were too short at that time. However, I think that 15 minutes break times right. That made us practice self-control, so we could be more attentive in the classroom. I agree with the article. Nowdays, I take a rest to sleep in university. The rest times will be longer and longer... So I slept 5-6 hours. That is not good :-( Therefore, I believe that the rest time is short and periodically!

# Article 2 : Armoza's "The Gran Plan" heads to Finland, Russia















* Summary

  The article is about show program, "The Gran Plan". The program shows grandmother's life! Producers anticipate that the program is bridge the generation gap and young protegees can move on with their lives. Israel's Channel 10, Switzerland's TeleZueri, and TV24 will show that.
  
* Persuasive

  When I saw the article, I didn't match between that picture and the title in the article. Because I didn't know that the word 'Gran' mean 'Grandmother'. I wonder contents of the program, so I want to see it. But there are no mention when the program begins. I am little disappointed.

# Article 3 : Iran, Finland share points in world goalball game













* Summary

  The article is that the Islamic Republic of Iran and Finland have shared the points in world goalball game. So, Iran could clinch a spot in the semi-finals of the tournament by help of Finland. They also drew 6-6 with Spain, then they will be searching for a final against Brazil!
  
* Persuasive

  I think that Iran goalball team is great! Also, I envy them. The reason is that I was very disapointed about Brazil world cup. Korea soccer team have been good play since 2002, but they couldn't clinch the top 16 in Brazil world cup. When I read the article, I thought that if our soccer team and Brazil will share the points, we would be better than before. I believe that our team will clinch the top 16 in next world cup, Russia world cup!
