Blog Post of the Day:
Tell me about the global issue you selected. What do you already know about the issue? What are you looking forward to learning about it? Explain.

My global issue is tornadoes.  Tornadoes are the outcome of when a cold mass meat a warm mass and combine.  Some tornadoes can become as wide as one my long. My project will be focusing on prevention of injuries and damage along with the aftermath. I'm looking forward to find out ways communities have integrated their homes so they're more efficient and more durable.

Blog Post of the Day:
What did you do this weekend? Share pictures if you have them!

This weekend I was in a tournament and had 4 soccer games.  We lost all of them but it was fine because we were playing U-17 instead of U-15. One of the refs we had was terrible; he was calling all these fowls that didn't even happen. But it was probably because he woke up on the wrong side of the bed and needed a hug. So, that was probably the low of my weekend, but the plus was that I had Chipotle.  I also had a lot of raw cookie dough which was delicious.

Yesterday I asked you to "think differently" and push yourself to be uncommon with your PSA project using Google Slides. Why do you think I asked you to do that? What is the point? Why not just use bullets and headers? Explain.

When you told us to "think differently," I thought it meant try and make your presentation different.  Obviously it meant don't make it exactly like your neighbors PSA, but it also meant that you are not like anybody else so you won't have the same perspective about it.  Last year for a school essay me and friend had the same topic and some of the same quotes; so instead of have practically the same essay it was different.  It was different because we interpreted it differently and different perspective on the topic.  A PSA is supposed to catch you attention, so if all you see are bullet points with no color that won't interest you.

Tell me all about your Labor Day weekend. What did you do? Include photos!

This Labor Day weekend I did so many things and had so many accomplishments! Just kidding, i did nothing. The extent of my movement was probably getting out of bed to get food just so I could back up to my room; for the record I brought enough food up to my to last me for the rest of the day. After I finished eating, I returned to hibernation just like any other normal person. I continued this Friday night- Monday.

Read this small newspaper clipping and then write a blog post about it. What are your thoughts? How does it make you feel? Do you agree? Disagree? Explain yourself.

John Tapene explains that kids can't wait around for things to happen to them; instead, they should be out mowing lawns, helping people, and getting a job.  He makes a good point when he says: go make something of your self, but the bottom line is that we're still teenagers.  Teenagers now a days have stress from school, sports, and homework.  So yes, once and a while it would be now to have somewhere to relax instead always doing something for their community.  If the community could do something for us, that would be nice too.
