Tell me about your weekend. Give me a story, something funny that happened, an experiencing you had, the way you felt, etc. Include photos!

This weekend I went to my lake house Friday after school. At the lake we just hung out and drove the ATV around and just chilled. Saturday i woke up and went up stairs to eat Bacon and eggs, then me and Brendan my friend i brought down went on the ATV and we went off road into the woods with them and that was a lot of fun. Saturday night we listened to music and had a blast. Sunday morning i woke up and had pancakes, then we got ready to get on the road and go back home. My lake house is at the Lake of the Ozarks its about a 2 and a half hour drive. I don't have a good story to tell except it was very cold and icy and we were outside a lot.

My perfect curriculum would would be have the classes i want to proceed my future job. I would take personal finance, accounting, entrepreneur, Marketing, and technology classes and more business classes. I cant take all of these classes now because we have mandatory classes and so that makes me not be able to take all my desired classes. It would prepare me for my life because i would like to be in business and possibly start my own business. During my desired classes i would take notes listen and actually care about what i am learning. The classes i would like to take are different from the ones now because i don't need to take for example chemistry which i will not use in my future job.

Tell me what you believe this cartoon is trying to say. Do you agree or disagree with this idea? Try and look at this from two different perspectives. What is your perspective? What would be an adult/teacher's perspective?

(Definition of perspective: a particular attitude toward or way of regarding something; a point of view.)

My perspective of this image is that this picture is a stereotype because this is saying that China and India people are smarter than USA people and that they study harder than us and we just put the books aside. That isn't true because USA people actually work very hard and study just as hard as anyone else. Some people may not but not everyone in China or India do either. A teachers perspective would be that this picture does not stand true because they teach us and know that we study and work just as hard as they do and that this picture is incorrect and is a stereotype to USA people.

Think about the quote above. What does this mean to you? How could this apply to your life? How could this apply to your school work? I would love to give you less work in class if it meant you were going to focus harder on the work. Do you think you would get more out of it? Would that work for you? Why or why not?

To me it means to not have a ton of things to do at once and focus on one thing and actually understand it as well as learn about it so you can apply it later in life. It could apply in my life if teachers didn't give us as much work i could focus on what is important and really learn it and understand the information instead of me just trying to get it done. Yes I think i would get more out of it because i wouldn't have to worry about a lot at once i could focus on one thing and learn it without rushing and i could spend time on it instead. Yes it would work for me because i hate having a ton of things to do at once because that isn't helping me because i have to rush to get it done and cant take my time on it and learn it if we could do less and focus more it would help a lot because i wouldn't have a ton to do and could focus and take my time and work harder on one thing instead of many.

Tell me about some interesting things you have learned about your global issue so far. What have you learned that you didn't know before? Include a couple images from the internet if possible. (Make sure to cite images that are not your own.)

I have learned that oil prices when they are very low make small US oil producers go bankrupt because the oil is so cheap they cant make a profit and end up going out of business. I have also been watching the oil stock to see when and how much it drops or goes up. I have a lot more to learn and find out about oil prices it is very interesting and there is a lot of information on it.

What is email? When do you use email in your own personal life? List reasons and ways that people use email. What do you know about "email etiquette"? EXPLAIN.

A email is a communicating source. It is used to send messages, links, videos, pictures, and more. Teachers use it to communicate with the students so that we can ask them a question about missing a test etc. I use my email in my personal life to ask teachers questions or to send a friend a document. People use email for all kinds o reasons people use it to get coupons and discounts also if you forgot a password it will send it to your email so that you remember it and can log on to your site. Email etiquette is whatever you want it to be because people cant tell you how to use your own email. The etiquette can be said as using proper grammar and sending important information to others and also to use your email wisely and actually make it useful.
