Untechnologically Challenged!

Tuesday, March 18th, 2008

Tim Holt recently wrote a blog post basically asking: Why should we use technology? Our teacher thought that someone should answer this from a kid’s perspective. So here we are to answer his question!
We should use technology because it is our future. We are rapidly advancing in technology every day. Every day, something new is being produced. This means […]

Zacharie Bleu…Americain!

Friday, February 29th, 2008

Several weeks ago, we asked our family and friends what the American Flag symbolized to them. There was a variety of answers between the different age groups. Now we are going to ask our blogging buddies from different countries to see what they think of when they hear the words “United States” and what symbols […]

High School Fiasco

Friday, February 8th, 2008

     Next year our entire eighth grade will be moving to high school (unless they stay back). I have mixed feelings on going to high school and I am sure that everyone feels pretty much the same way. Some of the different dreams that I hope to accompish include grades. I am an A student, […]

The one who had a dream…

Friday, January 18th, 2008

“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged of their color but by the content of their character”. This is a quote that is part of a speech that will make history forever. The man who stated this… Martin Luther King […]

The Essay

Friday, December 21st, 2007

     I recently watched a video that was entitled “The Essay”. I thought that this was a great video/commercial. I thought that this was a touching video and it was quite interesting. I really enjoyed this video. It shows that everything that is  impossible today, can always be possible in the future. The video showed a young […]

Who Is My Greatest Influence?

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

I think that the people who had my greatest influence on my life were my friends from last year. Before I met them last year, I was a very shy and a person who didn’t really speak much. My friends last year were such great friends and I think that they had to do greatly with […]

I wonder…

Monday, December 3rd, 2007

I wonder why the sky is blue. This “I wonder” statement that I have come up with just hit me when Mr. B told us the assignment.  I remember reading in a book that had the question, Why is the sky Blue? So when I was told of the assignment my mind went straight to that […]

 Here is the Question on the Discourse about Discourse Blog:
“What are the things that you think are so essential in the classroom that they can’t be outsourced to a virtual space? (Do they still exist? Will they always exist?)”
This is my comment:

Today in History…

Monday, October 29th, 2007

For this assignment, we had to do it on a person who was either born or died on the day that I wrote this post. I checked through all the names but none rung a bell except Walter Raleigh. I asked my mom and she said that she knew who he was. Even my mom […]

Disney for Me!

Thursday, October 25th, 2007

 We have been planning our Disney trip since the middle of the summer. I can’t wait for that day to come as it will be our first trip to Disney without going to see my grandparents or do other things. This trip is especially dedicated to Disney only. That day is exactly a week from […]
