"Strange Days On Planet Earth"

PART 4:
The amount of co2 in the atmosphere would change by weather.If it keeps increasing there might be a tipping point.70% of the Earth is covered by water.Plan tom are mostly eaten by everything,so they only come out at night.There is a team that captures them to see there progress.Over the years they drop by 20%.They are loosing there lives because of Global Warming.That might change the food web and drive fish to extinction.Testing water on crabs,checking what they can and can't live in.If the temperature increases by 2 degrees the crabs hearts can STOP.Change the Food Web and cause an effect the animals that feed on it.Thinking what the should give up to make better choices.People are having trouble breathing.Teaching them how to use an asthma inhaler.Biologists checking why this is happening.Coral is looking Roget.There are less fishes.It is being caused by dust thousand of miles away.Fifty years ago Lake Chad was Africa's main lake.But Lake Chad was caused by drought.Lake Chad produced so many fish.Would watch the children play in the shallows.Mantel spent hours figuring out what's happening.Found a type of FUNGUS.Calling other scientists and asking to try and find samples.What's killing the coral is the same thing that's making the people having trouble breathing.Dust has been blowing for many years,so people are asking why they are seeing these problems now.Trying to figure out what's damaging the computers.There are two air movers in the Atlantic Ocean one low and one high.It's sending dust and it's being caused by Global Warming.Africa is having affect on the Caribbean.

PART 6:
Troubled waters and animals.People saying they spent decades cleaning the waters.People cleaning the ponds,for the frogs.20 frog species have vanished for life.By looking at the frog they look healthy,but the scientists found something wrong in their organs.Atropine is what may be harming the frogs.Someone is collecting frogs,and exploring them.People on farm communities are starting to help clean up the ponds for the frogs,and they are helping by taking water samples for them so they can see what's in the water.For them water doesn't stay put.Hidden in the small waters are white whales.They are known for their whale songs.People say they can speak to whales and whales can speak to them.A chemical has gone to the frogs territory.Scientists are taking samples of the wales skin.The whales are taking in the chemical and also the food they eat has the chemical in it.Shanna found chemicals in tap water.People that go fishing are getting fish,and throwing them back into the water,because they are poisoned.It's a type of mercury.

PART 2:
Strange Species In Lake Victoria.Predator That Dominates This Water It's A Crocodile.But That's Not Their Only Problem.People Are Getting Diseases.A Certain Plant Is Giving The People The Diseases.The Plant Was Put There By A Love Couple And Brought A Weed Type Of Plant,That Spread Through The Water.A Monitor Lizard Was Sent To Kill Rats But They Rarely Encounter.They Put A Kane Toad To Poison The Lizard.They Put A Type Of Worm In The Water To Wipe Out The Plant That Poisons The Water.United States Is Being Invaded By Fire Ants.But No Harm Was Being Caused Before.In Hawaii There's A Dangerous Thing That Can Cause Land Slides.It Causes A Delta And There Are Animals That Can't Be Found Anywhere Else.It Was Brought Because The Person Was Seduced.It's Called Mikonia.

PART 3:
Millions Of Gallons Of Sea Water Keeping The Ship From Sinking.Two thirds of mammals disappearing.For as long as they walked Earth they have taken animals everywhere with them.Animals are decreasing.Strange days on planet Earth.Researchers believe that cars are a waste of energy.Animals are killing each other.Caribou's travel 5 miles every year.Taking photographs of islands and counting the animals on the island.60,000 animals vanished.Twice a year people and Caribou's cross the river.Climate is changing so fast,people are worried about the animals.To escape the tiny bugs Caribou's go to the hills.Mosquitoes can suck about a tablespoon of blood from a Caribou.Caribou dig through snow dozen times a day.Deeper snow also makes it harder for the Caribou's because the wolves.When the Rain gets into the snow it goes in and gets between the Caribou and it's food.Thousands of Caribou lost their lives.Possible that Caribou can no loner recover.People mostly interested in their families,themselves and surviving.Don't know what they can do to change the situation.Some people think they should do something about it.They live around their so they see what's happening.Some people Think That No one cares about the Artic.They don't think it's a big problem,but he thinks it can be solved.Some people are saying that they don't want people to be telling them when they can and cannot drive.They don't know what they can do to change this situation because it's a global problem.

A Coral Reef is made up of tiny animals.A Coral reef is a tiny animal.They are mostly found in the South Pacific.They are helpful to us because they protect other animals,violent seas,they help aids patients,to help them live longer.They are beneficial to us because they feed us,lots of people rely on fish.Coral Reefs are in danger.What's happening to them is Global Warming is the major cause,fish protect the Coral reef,so if the fish die,the Coral Reef dies.For us to help save the Coral Reefs we can stop fishing,well not stop,but like do less fishing and more helping.Because were taking the fish away from the Coral Reefs,and if we keep doing that more and more are going to be dying.We had so many,now we have so little.We need them to protect us,most people rely on fish and Coral Reefs.Some people don't really care about the Coral Reefs,but the people need to start caring,because Coral Reefs protect us humans.That's why it's important to care!.



WAYS WE CAN HELP THE CORAL REEFS:
One way we can help Coral Reefs is to do less fishing,we don't have to stop,we just have to do a little bit less.

We can tell some divers to go find out what's happening to all the Coral Reefs and tell the scientist to find clues.

Tell more and more people to help by doing whatever they can to help.

Ask people if they know any ways we can help the Coral Reefs.

Talk to older people and see if they know anything about Coral Reefs.

Ask scientist if they know anything,since they know more about animals,and science.

MOST ANIMALS ARE DIEING.THE HUMANITY IS THE SAME.MOST OF THE ANIMALS ARE IN DANGER.TIGERS,AND ELEPHANTS,AND WOLFS ARE GETTING ATTENTION.MOST ANIMALS TURNED OUT TO BE ENDANGERED.POLAR BEARS ARE IN DANGER BECAUSE THE ICE IS MELTING AND TURNING INTO WATER.THE POLAR BEAR TRIES TO BITE THE WALRUS SO IT CAN EAT IT.THE POLAR BEAR ATTACKS THE WALRUS FROM THE BACK AND BITES IT SO IT CAN'T LEAVE AND IT JUST STAYS THERE AND THE POLAR BEAR EATS THE WALRUS.ELEPHANTS,AND WOLFS,AND TIGERS ARE THE ONES THAT ARE IN DANGER THE MOST OUT OF ALL.I THINK THEY ARE THE ONES THAT NEED THE MOST CARE.THEY ARE IMPORTANT BECAUSE THEY EAT SOME THINGS THAT HARM US AND BASICALLY THEY ARE PROTECTING US.SO I THINK THESE ANIMALS ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT.THE HUMANITY HASN'T CHANGED.IT HAS BEEN THE SAME FOR A WHILE ALREADY.WE NEED TO START PROTECTING THE ANIMALS.WE NEED TO FIND NEW HOMES FOR THEM,AND WE NEED TO STOP THE HUNTING THAT'S GOING ON.THAT'S HOW SOME OF THE ANIMALS ARE DIEING.BECAUSE OF THE HUNTING,PEOPLE ARE KILLING THE ANIMALS.SO PEOPLE NEED TO STOP HUNTING.

I CHOSE SUICIDE,SMOKING,THEFT,AND TEEN PROBLEMS.BECAUSE I WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT SMOKING,AND THEFT,AND TEEN PROBLEMS,AND SUICIDE.I WANT TO KNOW WHY PEOPLE SMOKE,AND WHY DO THEY STEAL THINGS,AND WHY DO SOME PEOPLE COMMIT SUICIDE.I KNOW SOME PEOPLE DO SOME OF THESE THINGS BECAUSE THEY HAVE A HARD LIFE BUT WHY DO THESE THINGS.LIKE WHY DO THEY CHOOSE THESE THINGS JUST BECAUSE OF A HARD LIFE.I MEAN THEIRS MORE TO CHOOSE FROM NOT JUST THESE THINGS.TO COMMIT SUICIDE,AND TO SMOKE,AND TO STEAL,THOSE ARE THE WORST YOU CAN CHOOSE OUT OF ALL.

I AM INTERESTED IN THE GAME CUBE FIELD.BECAUSE I LIKE THAT GAME,AND IT TELLS YOU WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TO WIN.IT TELLS YOU HOW TO PLAY.I THINK THE GAME IS NICE FOR ANYONE TO PLAY IT.I MEAN I UNDERSTAND IT,I DON'T KNOW IF OTHER PEOPLE WOULD BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND IT BUT I CAN.

1.What Are Your Thoughts About The Documentary??My Thoughts About The Documentary..I thought is was good,and I liked how it talked about Earth and all it's problems and why were having these problems and how we are having the problems.
2.What Do You Think About Global Warming??My Thoughts About Global Warming......I think global warming is bad,and it's harming our Earth,and the animals,and people.So we need to find a way to stop>Global Warming<.
3.How Does The Information You Hear Make You feel??The things I hear about global warming and other bad things like that make me feel sad,and mad because it's harming the animals,and people,and our home which is >Earth<.So when I hear things like that or see,I get real sad and mad to see our home,and animals that way.
4.What Can We Do To Prevent Ultimate Destruction??We can protest.Or maybe someone can talk to the people and tell them not to do anything.Or we can also have meetings about the destruction.

THIS IMAGE WAS RETRIEVED FROM:www.pics4learning.com

THIS IS AN IMAGE OF A DOG THAT I HAVE ALWAYS LIKED.I DON'T REMEMBER THE NAME OF IT BUT I HAVE ALWAYS LIKED IT.THEY ONLY COME IN 3 COLORS,WHICH ARE BROWN,WHITE,AND BLACK.I PREFER THE WHITE AND BROWN ONES.I DON'T REALLY LIKE THE BLACK ONES.MY BEST FRIEND HAS ONE ON THESE TYPES OF DOGS.THE DOG IS A GIRL,SHE NAMED HER LUCY.I HAVE BEEN KNOWING MONICA WHICH IS MY BEST FRIEND WITH THE DOG I HAVE BEEN KNOWING HER FOR 9 YEARS.WE HAVE BEEN FRIENDS SINCE THEN.THROUGH THICK AND THIN WE CAN'T STAY MAD AT EACH OTHER.WELL YEA I LOVE THESE DOGS.I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED ONE.AT FIRST I WAS SCARED OF THEM UNTIL I CARRIED ONE AND I LOVED HOLDING IT SINCE THEN I LOVED THEM.RIGHT NOW I HAVE 5 DOGS BUT THEY ARE CHIHUAHUAS.I WANT ONE OF THESE DOGS.HOPEFULLY I WILL GET ONE FOR MY NEXT BIRTHDAY LIKE THEY TOLD ME I WOULD.BUT THE THING IS THEY STILL LITTLE AND YOU HAVE TO BE REALLY CAREFUL WITH THEM BECAUSE ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN TO THEM IF YOUR NOT CAREFUL.SO I KIND OF WANT ONE BUT AT THE SAME TIME I DON'T BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO BE CARUFUL WITH THEM.AND I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH TO CARE OF A DOG.I DON'T TAKE CARE OF THE DOGS I HAVE AT HOME.MY BROTHER AND MY DAD TAKE CARE OF THEM.SO YEA THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THIS IMAGE.

CINCO DE MAYO

MY FAMILY CELEBRATES CINCO DE MAYO WITH MUSIC,GAMES,DANCING,FOOD,AND LOTS OF HOMEADE FOOD.I THINK THE PRESENTATION WAS BORING I DIDN`T EVEN TALK.I HAVE NOT ASKED MY PARENTS OR MY GRAND-PARENTS ABOUT CINCO DE MAYO AND IF I DID OR WILL I WONDER WHAT THEY WILL SAY.I THINK CINCO DE MAYO IS VERY IMPORTANT TO THEM BECAUSE WELL IM NOT TRYING TO BE MEAN BUT THEY ARE OLD BUT NOT VERY OLD RIHGT NOW THEY ARE IN THERE 50S.MY GRANDMA HAD RELATIVES THAT FAUGHT IN THE WAR ACTUALLY IT WAS HER UNCLE AND SHE HASN`T TOLD ME ANYTHING ABOUT HIM YET BUT IM GOING TO ASK HER TODAY.WELL ACTUALLY IT AFFECTS THEM A LOT WELL I THINK SO AND EVERY CINCO DE MAYO I THINK THE NEWCOMERS ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHATS HAPPENING AND THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE LIVED THERE FOR A WHILE KNOW WHATS GOING ON.NO BECAUSE I THINK THEY WOULD HAVE EVERYONE AS SLAVES AND JUST DOING STUFF FOR THEM.I THINK THEY NEED TO HAVE A VOTE ABOUT THE PEOPLE THAT WANNA STAY IN MEXICO CAN NOT DO DRUGS THE POEPLE THAT WANT TO DO DRUGS HAVE TO LEAVE TO A DIFFERENT PLACE.I THINK MEXICO NEEDS MORE HELP LIKE THEY NEED HELP CLEANING.THAT`S WHAT I THINK ABOUT CINCO DE MAYO AND WHAT I THINK ABOUT THE PRESENTATIONS.

WORKING IN FLASH

WORKING IN FLASH IS HARD.SOME THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN HARD FOR ME ARE THE WAY FLASH WORKS AND WHY DO WE NEED FLASH AND WHY DO WE DO FLASH.SOMETHING THAT CAN HELP ME IS NOT WORKING IN FLASH ANYMORE AND NOT EVER DOING IT UNLESS SOMETHING COMES UP OR A REASON WE HAVE TO DO IT THAT`S REALLY IMPORTANT.I KIND IF THINK IT`S IMPORTANT BUT NOT REALLY BECAUSE I DON`T LIKE FLASH THAT MUCH IN FACT I DON`T LIKE IT AT ALL BECAUSE IT`S REALLY BORING AND I GET LOST WHEN WE WORK IN FLASH AND IT TAKES A LONG TIME TO DO WHAT WE HAVE TO IN FLASH.I THINK I DON`T NEED THE TRAINING BECAUSE I DON`T LIKE FLASH AND IT`S REALLY BORING AND IT TAKES UP TOO MUCH TIME AND IT GOES BY VERY SLOWLY.I DON`T THINK I HAVE DISTRACTIONS IN THE CLASS THAT KEEP ME FROM DOING FLASH BUT OTHER THAN THAT I DON`T THINK I NEED FLASH AND I WILL NEVER NEED IT.I THINK WE SHOULDN'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE I DON`T HAVE ANY DISTRACTIONS WHEN WE WORK IN FLASH.I DON`T THINK THE VIDEOS ARE HELPFUL BECAUSE THEY SAY EVERYTHING TOO FAST IN THE VIDEOS.BY FINDING SOME WAYS TO MAKE THE VIDEOS SLOWER OR FIND VIDEOS THAT GO SLOWER.I THINK I WILL UNDERSTAND FLASH IF MRS.MILLER TEACHES ME OR ONE AT A TIME SLOWER.I FEEL FLASH IS REALLY BORING AND I DO NOT LIKE IT AND IT SLOWS TIME DOWN AND IT TAKES TOO MUCH TIME.I DON`T THINK I WILL NEED IT IN THE FUTURE BUT IF I DO I WILL HAVE TO LEARN IT NOW BUT I HAVE NO CHOICE I HAVE TO LEARN IT NOW BECAUSE IT`S NOT UP TO ME WHAT WE DO IN SCHOOL IT`S UP TO THE TEACHERS AND UP TO THE PRINCIPAL.I THINK I WILL NEED IT.THAT`S WHAT I THINK ABOUT FLASH.

SPRING BREAK

I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT I AM GOING TO DO FOR SPRING BREAK.MY PARENTS ARE THE ONES WHO USUALLY PLAN EVERYTHING.ALL I KNOW IS THIS SATURDAY I'M GOING TO A BABY SHOWER AND A PARTY.AND THIS SATURDAY I`M HAVE TO COME TO SCHOOL FOR A FIELD TRIP.WE ARE GOING TO GO TO THE URBAN ROOTS AND EVERYONE SAYS IT`S REALLY RUNE.I HOPE IT IS BECAUSE IF NOT IT`S GOING TO RUIN MY SATURDAY AND I DON`T WANT TO RUIN MY SATURDAY.IF I DO I WILL BE SAD BECAUSE I WANNA HAVE FUN.NOT BE BOARD.

FIELD DAY

FRIDAY WHICH IS TODAY WE HAD A DAY CALLED FIELD DAY AND WE HAD DIFFERENT STATIONS TO GO TO.WE ALSO HAD DIFFERENT GROUPS OUTSIDE AND WE WOULD GO TO ALL THE STATIONS.AFTER ALL THE GROUPS FINISHED ALL THE STATIONS THE TEACHERS LET US PLAY AROUND WITH OUR FRIENDS.I LIKED IT WAS FUN.ESPECIALLY BECAUSE WE GOT TO THROW PIES AT TWO OF THE TEACHERS FACE AND IT WAS FUN IT WAS EVERY WHERE.BUT ONLY THE KIDS THAT WERE GOOD GOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE FIELD DAY BUT ONLY LIKE TWO KIDS DID`NT PARTICIPATE.I WASN`T GOING TO PARTICIPATE BUT THEN THE TEACHERS GAVE ME ANOTHER CHANCE SO I DID.BUT OTHER THAN THAT IT WAS FUN WE ALL HAD FUN.THE STATIONS WERE DODGEBALL,PIES IN TEACHERS FACE,PIE FOOTBALL,TNT STATION.IT WAS ALL FUN I LIKED EVERYTHING.ESPECIALLY BECAUSE I WAS WITH MY BEST FRIEND BRITTANY RODRIGUEZ AT FIRST SHE WAS MAD AT ME BUT THEN SHE GOT OVER IT.

THE VISIT FROM SHANNON

WHEN SHANNON CAME IT WAS ON MONDAY.I HAVE LEARNED FORM HER VISIT SHE ASKED US ABOUT OUR WIKI PAGES. WE DID OUR PRESENTATIONS AND INTRODUCED OURSELVES.I FELL THAT FLASH IS REALLY HARD AND I DON`T KNOW HOW TO DO MOST OF THE STUFF WE HAVE TO DO.TO UPLOAD OUT FILES IS KIND OF HARD AND I DON`T LIKE WORKING IN FLASH.FLA AND SWF IS KIND OF EASY BECAUSE ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS TYPE IT IN THE BOX AND SAVE IT.FILING PICTURES IS THE MOST EASIEST THING TO DO AND I LIKE DOING IT.I THINK IT WON`T HELP ME IN FLASH LATER IN THTE FUTURE BECAUSE I DON`T KNOW HOW TO DO IT SO YEAH AND I HAVE BEEN ASKING FOR HELP BUT NO ONE HEPLS ME SO YEAH.SOMETIMES THE TEACHER HELPS ME AND SOMETIMES MY CLASSMATES HELP ME.BUT SOMETIMES I DON`T GET WHAT THEY ARE TELLING ME TO DO SO YEAH.I`VE BEEN KIND OF GETTING IT NOW BUT NOT THAT MUCH.SOMETIMES THE TEACHER WILL HELP ME AND WHEN SHE DOES I GET CONFUSED WITH WHAT SHE TELLS ME .

TEAM PROGRESS

http://
MY TEAM HAS BEEN GETTING ALONG PRETTY GOOD BUT NOT REALLY.WE ALL KIND OF FIGHT A LOT.I WOULDN`T SAY WE GET ALONG THAT GREAT WE DON`T GET ALONG PERIOD BUT I LIKE MY TEAM.THERE HAS BEEN SOME UNRESELVED ISSUES WITH MY TEAM MATES AND ME.NOT EVERYONE HAS BEEN DOING THERE PARTS AND THERE ASSIGNMENTS BUT OTHER THAN THAT IT`S BEEN REALLY GOOD SO FAR.I FEEL GREAT THAT WE ARE IN GROUPS BECAUSE IT`S BETTER THAN WORKING INDEPENDENTLY BECAUSE YOU HAVE MORE HELP THAN YOU DO BY YOUR SELF.I FEEL I HAVE A BETTER GAME TOPIC THAN SOME OTHER PEOPLE BUT NOT EVERYBODY A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVE BEEN DOING REALLY GOOD.MY OWN GAME TOPIC IS BAD I HAVEN`T EVEN FINISHED YET.IT`S NOT EASY BY MYSELF BECAUSE IT`S BETTER IF YOU HAVE A GROUP BECAUSE YOU HAVE MORE HELP INSTEAD OF DOING IT BY YOURSELF.

DRAWING IN FLASH

http://IN FLASH IS KIND OF EASY BUT IT`S HARD AT THE SAME TIME.IT WAS HARD AT FIRST BUT THEN WHEN MRS.MILLER SHOWED US A VIDEO ABOUT HOW TO DRAW AND DO TEXT FEATURES IT WASN`T HARD BY THEN.I DID LEARN NEW TECHNIQUIES THAT I DIDN`T KNOW HOW TO DO BEFORE.THE TOPIC OF OUR GAME WAS TO ELIMINATE GANGS AND STOP THEM FROM DOING DRUGS AND TO STOP STARTING THEM AND FOR SOMEONE WHOS IN A GANG FOR THEM TO PLAY OUR GAME AND SEE IF THAT WILL HELP.THERE ARE SOME THINGS I KNOW SINCE THE LAST TIME I DID A BLOG ENTRY.MY INSPIRATION IS TO FINISH OUR GAME BECAUSE IF WE DONT FINISH WE WILL BE IN LOTS OF TROUBLE AND WE WONT GET A 100 WE WILL GET A 60 OR LOWER WHICH I WONT LIKE BECAUSE ALL MY GRADES ARE HIGHER THAN AN 80 IN ALL MY CLASSES.DRAWING IN FLASH ISN`T THE HARDEST THING I`VE EVER DONE IN MY LIFE KNOWING ME IT`S NOT MAYBE FOR OTHER PEOPLE IT IS BUT NOT ME.I LIKE TOO BE IN A CONTEST OR BEING CHALLENGED.

SNOW DAY

THE SNOW WAS COOL.WHEN IT SNOWED WE WERE PLAYING OUTSIDE FOR LIKE ABOUT TEN OR TWENTY MINUTES.THEN WE CAME BACK INSIDE.THEN IT WAS TIME TO GO AND WE ALL WENT HOME.WE ALL GOT OUT OF SCHOOL EARLY WE GOT OUT AT TWELVE THIRTY.WHEN I GOT HOME ME AND MY MOM,AND DAD,AND BROTHER,AND SISTERS ALL PLAYED IN THE SNOW WE HAD A SNOW BALL FIGHT I LIKED IT AND I WON IT WAS COOL.I THREW A SNOWBALL AT MY BROTHERS HEAD AND HE STARTED CRYING BUT O WELL I DIDN'T GET IN TROUBLE.AND THIS IS LIKE MY FIFTH OR EIGHTH TIME SEEING SNOW IN AUSTIN.IT WASN`T JUST SNOW IT WAS ICE TO.

WHY IT IS IMPORTANT TO USE TIME WISELY

IT IS IMPORTANT TO USE TIME WISELY BECAUSE IF NOT YOU WILL NOT GET ANY WORK DONE.IF YOU DONT WORK YOU WILL GET A ZERO AND WE DONT WANT ZERO WE WANT HUNDREDS SO WE CAN PASS ALL OF OUR CLASSES AND WE DONT HAVE TO HAVE DETENTION OR AFTER SCHOOL DETENTION OR BEFORE SCHOOL DETENTION.LIKE ME I HAVE TO USE TIME WISELY BECAUSE IN TECHNOLOGY I HAVE A FIFTY SIX AND I NEED A EIGHTY OR HIGHER TO GO TO GATTI TOWN WITH MY FRIENDS.I WANT TO GO SO IM MAKING UP WORK IN TECHNOLOGY CLASS TO GO TO GATTI TOWN WITH MY FRIENDS.I HAVENT BEEN USING TIME WISELY BECAUSE I PLAY AROUND TO MUCH IN TECHNOLOGY AND I HAVE TO USE TIME WISELY NOW.I PLAY AROUND WITH MY FRIENDS INSTEAD OF DOING MY WORK IN CLASS.ITS NOT FAIR TO THE OTHER KIDS AND I FEEL GUILTY BECAUSE THEY WORK REALLY HARD AND ME I DONT WORK A LOT.I FEEL REALLY BAD FOR THEM THEY DO WORK AND I DONT SO IT MAKES ME SAD AND I FEEL BAD FOR THEM.

LAST WEEK

I FELL KIND OF GOOD WITH SOME TEAM MATES BUT NOT ALL OF THEM.IT WAS HARD BECAUSE SOME OF MY TEAM MATES DIDN`T FINISH THEIR PAPER THEY NEEDED TO CORRECT.SO ON OUR PRESENTATION IT WAS BAD WE MESSED UP A LOT.NO BECAUSE ONE PERSON IN OUR GROUP DIDN`T WORK AND DIDN`T PUT THE MATH IN OUR GAME KIND HE WAS SUPPOSED TO I AM STILL A LITTLE CONFUSED BECAUSE I DON`T KNOW WHAT KIND OF MATH TO PUT.SOME OF THE FRUSTRATIONS WERE TWO OF MY TEAM MATES AND THOSE TWO PEOPLE ARE SHAWN HARRIS,AND RICKY MARTINEZ.SOME HARD MOMENTS WERE DEALING WITH MY TWO ANNOYING TEAM MATES WHICH ARE SHAWN HARRIS AND RICKY MARTINEZ .THEY ALWAYS PLAY AROUND WITH OTHER PEOPLE OR WITH EACH OTHER.SO THE TEAM CAPTAIN ALWAYS HAVE TO GET AFTER THEM BECAUSE THERE ALWAYS PLAYING AROUND WITH OTHER PEOPLE OR THE SAME PEOPLE.THE TEAM CAPTAIN ALWAYS KEEPS US FOCUS OR ON TASK.SO SHE KEEPS US WORKING AND SHE ALWAYS PARTICIPATES AND ALWAYS WORKING.I LIKE THE WAY SHE TELLS US WHAT TO DO AND HOW TO DO IT AND WHEN TO DO IT.LIKE WITH RICKY AND SHAWN SHE STARTS YELLING AT THEM AND THEY GET MAD AND START WORKING.I START LAUGHING WHEN THEM TWO GET IN TROUBLE.

MY TEAM

I WAS THE SECRETARY BECAUSE MY TEAM MATES SAID THAT I HAD GOOD HAND WRITING SO THAT`S WHAT I DID.WE ALL HAD DIFFERENT JOBS.
BECAUSE MY TEAM MATES SAID THAT I HAVE GOOD HAND WRITING AND THEY SAY I PAY LOTS OF ATTENTION.AND I DID THAT SO I SAID OKAY ILL BE THE SECRETARY.SO I WAS AND I PAYED ATTENTION.I LIKED IT A LOT.
WE HAD A FEW DISAGREEMENTS BUT OTHER THAN THAT NO NOT REALLY.
THE DISAGREEMENTS WERE OVER THE DRAWER WHICH WAS RICKY AND ME AND HIM WOULD ARGUE A LOT OVER THE GAME AND WHAT HE AND I WANTED THE GAME TO HAVE.BUT EVENTUALLY WE GOT OVER IT SO WE DIDN`T FIGHT ANYMORE AFTER THAT SO WE ARE FRIENDS THOUGH.
I LOOK FORWARD TO REPRESENTING IT TO MORE PEOPLE NOT JUST MY CLASSMATES.BECAUSE I WANT TO BECOME BIG NOT SMALLER.AND SO DO MY TEAM MATES WE DON`T WANT TO BE IN A SHELL WE WANT TO BE BIG.
THE INSPIRATION FOR OUR GAME WAS TO STOP PREVENTING GANGS AND FOR NOBODY TO START THEM AGAIN.SO WE PLAN THAT AFTER WE ARE DONE MAKING OUR GAME NOBODY WILL START GANGS AGAIN OR BE IN A GANG.HOPEFULLY THE PEOPLE IN A GANG WILL PLAY IT OR TEENAGERS WILL PLAY IT TO ESPECIALLY THE ONES THAT WANT TO BE IN A GANG.BECAUSE I KNOW A LOT OF TEENAGERS WOULD LIKE TO BE IN A GANG RIGHT NOW BECAUSE THEY THINK IT`S COOL BUT IT`S REALLY NOT.LIKE BECAUSE THERE ARE GANGS AND THE MOST DANGEROUS ONES ARE THE RED`S AND THE BLUE`S.LIKE ME I LIKE THE COLOR RED AND BEFORE I WANTED TO BE IN A GANG BUT NOW I DON`T BECAUSE BAD THINGS HAPPEN LIKE ONE THING THAT COULD HAPPEN IS THAT YOU COULD GET KILLED OR STABBED OR MAYBE EVEN HURT INSTEAD OR MAYBE YOU CAN GET IN FIGHTS WITH BLOODS OR CRIPS. WHICH BLOODS IS RED`S AND CRIPS ARE BLUE`S LIKE MY COUSIN IS IN A GANG AND HE GOT IN A REALLY BAD FIGHT AND HIS EYE WAS BLACK AND HIS FACE WAS PUFFY AND HE LITERALLY LOOK LIKE A BLOW FISH.AND THE SWELLING WENT DOWN BUT IT LEFT HIM A BRUISE.

PAPER PROTOTYPE

I HAD FUN DOING IT.I DIDN`T FIND IT DIFFICULT.I DID UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF THE PAPER PROTOTYPE IN REFERENCE TO OUR GAME.THE FIRST TIME I LIKE IT,BUT THEN I GOT HARDER AND THEN IT GOT EASIER.BUT OTHER THAN THAT I LIKED IT.SOME THING I LIKED ABOUT THE TEAM WAS THAT WE ALMOST WORKED TOGETHER,AND ALMOST AGREED FOR ABOUT EVERYTHING.WE FOUGHT WELL ARGUED SOMETIMES.I THINK I WILL PROGRESS JUST RIGHT FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR BECAUSE WE ALL WORK TOGETHER AND WE SRT OF GET ALONG SOMETIMES.YESTERDAY WITCH WAS ON TUESDAY WE ALL PRESENTED OUR GAMES TO THE WHOLE CLASS.THE ONLY THING MY TEAM WAS MISSING WAS THE MATH AND THE PROBLEMS.WE ARE OBJECTIVE ONE WE ALL LIKE OBJECTIVE ONE A LITTLE.THE REASON WE HAVE TO PUT MATH IN OUR GAMES IS BECAUSE WE ALL HAVE OBJECTIVES.LIKE OURS IS OBJECTIVE ONE.THEN THERES OBJECTIVE TWO.THEN THERES THREE.THEN THERES FOUR.THEN FIVE.THEN SIX.BUT THE PROBLEM WAS THAT ONLY SOME PEOPLE FINISHED.NOT EVERYBODY FINISHED.THAT`S WHAT I THINK ABOUT THE PAPER PROTOTYPE.

WHAT I THINK ABOUT FLASH

I DON'T LIKE FLASH BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO DO TO MUCH STUFF AND IT TAKES TO LONG.AND YOU GET LOST WHILE THE TEACHER IS DOING THE THINGS WE HAVE TO DO AND WE HAVE TO FOLLOW HER WHILE SHES DOING THE FLASH AND WE ALL GET LOST AND SHES SAYS TO TELL SOMEONE TO HELP US BUT SOME OF OUR FRIENDS DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO EITHER AND THEY GET LOST TO ON THE WAY.BUT OTHER THAN THAT ITS OKAY BUT NOT REALLY.BUT SOMETIMES THE TEACHER WILL HELP US BUT NOT ALL THE TIME BECAUSE SHE HAS TO TEACH EVERYBODY ELSE WHO HASN`T GOT LOST HOW TO DO IT.
