Myself and Blogs

Now that I'm a 7th grade blogger, I definitely want to new things to my blog than I did last year. Last year my blog was really plain and I didn't really have a lot of visuals or anything really special and eye catching. This year, I'm going to change that by putting pictures that relate to my post, and maybe add some fun and cool widgets.

I feel that a blog is a really great learning tool and is very convenient. You can always add cool gadgets that help you! Some ways that this blog will help me is by having a homework calendar. My homework calendar helps me when I forget what my homework is in any of my classes, and it's so convenient because all I have to do is go to my blog and click on the homework tab. It's also a great way to tell people what you learned at school and tell the audience new things that they probably never learned before.

Some of the benefits of having this blog all the way till high school and having it up-to-date, is that as a writer I will be able to see myself improve and make my blog more interesting. And while I have this blog, my personality will start to grow and when I look back at all my writing pieces, I'll be able to hear and see myself become more confident.

Some things I have learned about blogs from laptop bootcamp, is that the more visuals the more interesting the blog post looks. No one wants a plain blog because it doesn't look interesting or entertaining to read about. I also learned that avatars are a good way to kind of hide your identity by not using your real photo. Avatars can still show who you are by adding cool things to it like if one of your hobbies is listening to music, you could put headphones on your avatar.

Overall, I think that the laptop bootcamp has really helped me in a lot of things that I never knew before like blogging. I hope that my blog will gradually become better. Hopefully all the tips I've learned from bootcamp will come in handy!

Water Bill

The chart above shows my family's monthly water consumption. In August it was 72.8 cubic meters, in september it was 60.5 cubic meters, in October it was 64.9 cubic meters, in November it was 63.7 cubic meters, in December it was 25.8, and for January it was 47.7. The average is 55.9 cubic meters per month. The target was the average reduced to 20% less of our water consumption and the amount we would want to use instead of using an a lot more wasteful amount. Our target was 44.72 cubic meters per month.

Significancy of Schindler's List: News Package

News Package Element/ Time Reference Script Introduction The Holocaust is one of the most famous genocides known by many around the world. There has always been speculation whether the movie, Schindler’s List, and its goriness was ever appropriate for students, especially for those who couldn’t handle the gruesome content in the movie. But one filmmaker, Steven Spielberg, made a monumental movement. He changed the lives of many with just one movie. He brought perspectives on prejudice and bullying to light in the phenomenal movie, Schindler’s List . Soundbite 1: Matthew Elms, 8th grade C-side social studies teacher (Elms, 5:43) “I have a hard time imagining an intelligent person sitting down and watching that movie and not being changed. And being the same person afterwards that they were before.” Bridge When asked on how the movie could change people’s perspectives on the world and prejudice, Matthew Elms, an eighth grade social studies teacher at SAS, had a s...

Target

Airplanes flying low, smoke and fire everywhere, and destruction of the twins falling down. That was nine-eleven. It was the tragedy that shook the entire world and the time where many lives were lost trying to save the innocent.Tears fled from people’s eyes like a stream and hearts were slowly tearing apart as loved ones were getting torn apart from them. Grief and condolences were sent to the US and its people. And during that very sad time, Muslims were discriminated because about one percent of their population were the ones who attacked. Persecuted for doing something they didn’t do, something they didn’t have control of. Even being called horrible names like “terrorist”.  Going to an American school and being the only Muslim in my grade, I felt like a social casualty. A lost puppy in a thunderstorm. We used to talk about this event in class every year and my teacher would talk about the culprits that were the Muslim terrorists. And I would see the few peers who woul...
