A Memorable Learning Experience

A memorable learning experience I had was in kindergarten  and my teacher taught us many different ways of learning things , not like a normal  teacher . For example , with the alphabet each day she would make us go to different classrooms all around the school and look for these ' letter people' . Each day we would do a different letter in order .  They would look like blow up people with letters on them . Each day when we would get a new one we would say them one at a time " A,B,C' .& each day we would add the letter we had to find next. Once all the letters were found we would each get a letter A-Z  ( obviously) and we would make up a song for each letter and explain what the letter was . I had the letter 'L' which means i would make a poem/ rhyme about the letter L . Then We would perform it for our parents and other teachers. This was a memorable experience because it was unusual and a fun way of learning.

Our Holiday Traditions (:

In our family we do the same things every year around Christmas time. We celebrate Christmas like a normal family would.Well for starters , usually we couldn't get a normal big tree we usally had to get a small one because of my dog, Brewzer . We couldn't handle it becuase my parents thought he would chew on it or pee on it , but now Brew is old enough to understand not to so we finally get a big normal tree (fake though :p) . After we put up the tree we decorate it with a lot of ornaments and then we put a star on top to complete all the scenery. Before Christmas Eve , Each family picks out a secert santa for the kids . Each family is supposed to spend up to $50 on christmas gifts for the kid you got as your Secert Santa .  On Christmas Eve,  Me,& My parents usually go to my mom's parents house with all my tons & tons of cousins . What we usaully do is hang out , then we eat dinner with all sorts of food & then after we eat dinner  we all sit in a big circle in our main families and my Grandma & My Aunts hand out all the presents and then we sit down and My Grandma does a tradition where we go in order from the youngest kids open the presents first then the oldest kids . Then on Actual Christmas we go to my Dads parents house or my dads Sisters house and we eat and then we all just open up our presents . Then we hang out and go home  (:

Hunger Games (Josh Hutcherson)

The Hunger Games comes out in march 2012. This is a movie about the book series "The Hunger Games" . Its based on having to survive these certain games . The movie is also staring Liam Hemsworth . The Hunger Games , i didn't read them so i don't know much about them but what i do know is its a series of games which you have one boy and one girl and if you win , you win your life. I just chose this movie because i like Josh Hutcherson as an actor and the movies he is in . The picture below on the left shows Josh hutcherson normally , as his normal self . On the right shows how he is going to be looking as "Peeta Mellark" in the Hunger Games. Josh has been in a few movies you might know such as Bridge to Terabithia , Journey to the Center of the earth ( which they are making a number 2 also with Josh) , Zathura and Firehouse Dog.  If i see the movie , which i probably will then i will review it so it seems like what its like Before seeing the "Hunger Games." and after seeing it . Which means i will have a lot more to say about the movie, when i understand it and know what it's about.

Sting Rays..

Some seniors and a few teachers went to the Aquarium . In this picture it shows that Seniors are petting sting rays. The who is The Seniors. The what is petting the sting rays . Where is at the Aquarium and When is sometime earlier in the month . My question is why didn't we know about this?  It seems as though even though they're seniors us juniors should have some kind of trip too . Who Knows what will happen in the future .

Why do i get mad?

Five things that make me mad .?
1. People that annoy me
2. Bi^&@!*
3. Loud People
4. Smokers .(cigarettes)
5. Drama


The category i am choosing is smokers . I am choosing this because too me  Smoking is nasty . No matter what kind of smoking it is .Both of my parents smoke  and i think that it's just disgusting and it hurts brain cells to much . It is a main cause of cancer and i think its not necassary . I also believe that it SMELLS . Some people say they smoke because it relieves stress. Some people think its " cool " or whatever . Honestly its not . There is plenty of other ways to relieve stress and smoking isnt one of them . In this article http://www.naturalnews.com/smokers.html . It shows that smoking Increases Stress , not decresses it . So what now ? Go to worse drugs . . . thats not cool either  . Doing other drugs isn't cool either .  Well a fellow student... Says that she thinks its " F****** disgusting " . Those are the exact words she says about smoking . Now that you know how what an article says and what a student says . If you smoke ? Why do you do it ? Does it make you feel " cool , accomplished "  Whats the real reason? If you had to choose between the one that you love and your "love" for smoking would you loose that person , or would you seriously choose smokign over that? Think about it . . . If its that hard to choose then we obviously know your choice.

Im a little late about this but its okay (:

Yes, i am a little bit late for this topic but i felt like writing about it . Okay So i am not in journalism class but yearbook class . I was writing about uniforms because one of my questions on  paper is name 3 things you dislike about your school/community .  I obviously , put uniforms . Simply in my opinion and probably many other students dislike them . I think they're ugly ,uncomfortable , and expensive . $30 for pants? what  is this? seriously . We can't even express ourselves with seeing peoples different styles and the way they dress . I believe we should be able to express ourselves with out clothing style . We all have unique styles , outfits & shoes.  I think its unfair and we as the students should of had a vote either to have the uniforms not to not have them . If more students voted NO then NO we shouldn't have them or if more STUDENTS not teachers or faculty but students say YES hen we have them . It seems like the Board of Ed and the administration don't care about the students life and what students say . They just care about what THEY want .  If students have to wear them so should teachers ! Its simply not fair .
