Kaitlyn's Blog of Happiness

A web quest is a way of telling people information about a certain subject, it tells information in different peoples perspective. This also may be a challenge to some people. While doing a web quest, we will write an essay about the subject you are learning / researching about and then you will portray it to people.

1. Point of View 2.Different types of Media 3. Tells people information. ||  || My New Year's resolution is to practice my instrument more, be nicer to my siblings and don't tease Renee Wanke as much. I chose for my resolution to be that I play my instrument more because I almost never play it at home except for at school during band. I could go through this by setting a time away from my day everyday to practice. I also put down that I need to be nicer to my siblings because I am pretty mean to them. One of them is 16 and me and him tease each other all the time. We don't care really but i have a 9 year old brother and a 5 year old brother. They do not get any jokes or anything so when I tell them something that I don't really mean, they have a fit. Obviously I get into trouble. So I think, I don't really want to, but be nicer to my brothers by helping them a little more and by not teasing them as much. Last but not least I am going to try to stop teasing Renee Wanke. I tease her so much, that most of our day is spent laughing over our jokes. She doesn't really seem upset about them though because she knows I am just joking around. I am going to at least try too. Those are the resolutions that I am going to try to keep through the year 2012. Your paragraph was very good. I liked how you said what you would do to achieve your resolutions. || || My favorite Christmas was when I was in 5th grade. This was my favorite Christmas because of the reasons following. One a lot of my family was there, two I got a lot of gifts, and we had a great time. First a lot of my family and friends came. Our house was full man. My family and friends mean a lot to me because they care about me and we get along very well. We open gifts, eat goodies, play games, and chatter a lot. I also liked it because I got a ton of gifts. First I just wanted an i pod touch and some books. But then on Christmas Eve when we opened my presents I found this different. I got a cell phone, cell phone cover, i-pod touch, i-pod case, ||  || That Girl was joyful tranquil though madame didn't win. She knew t hat she was good at going on the H2O. || || Which animal on the farm is the most similar to you. In the book __Animal Farm__, I think I am most like Boxer the horse and Mollie the horse. I am mostly like Boxer because I like to get things done, I am a hard worker and I don't complain. Boxer likes to get things done by getting up early. On Saturday mornings, I will get up and clean up my room. Then I will go to the kitchen and make pancakes for my family. When I really have energy, I will clean up the kitchen after I have made a mess. Boxer is a hard worker and I am a hard worker. Boxer always goes ahead and gets up earlier than the other animals to get to work and does more work than all the other animals. When I have to clean something in my house, I try to do it my best and when I have to do something for a teacher, I try to do it to the best of my ability. Also when I do my homework, I do it in my best handwriting so it is easier for the teachers to read and I try to do my homework before I ask for help. I also don't complain and niether does Boxer. When I have homework, I don't complain to my teachers like all the other students do in my math class. Also when I have to chores at my house I don't complain to my parents. I am also like Mollie. I hate change and apparently so does Mollie. When things happen in my house, like we get new furniture or I have to do more work than my brother because he had surgery. I mostly get upset when there is a change in plans for the weekend or the summer. I usually don't reject if it is chores but I do sometimes reject my parents if we have a different plan. That why I am mostly like Boxer and Mollie in the book __Animal Farm__. I didn't find anything wrong with your paragraph. || || Even though Thanksgiving is this weekend, there are still a few things that I am not grateful for. Thanksgiving is this weekend and I am sick. I am not thankful for my sickness. I have this disease called Celiac Disease and I can't have gluten, rye, or barley. I can be thankful for this disease because then in Family Consumer Sciences I don't have to taste the nasty food they make us make. I am also not thankful for homework. Homework takes your time away from spending the evening with family or friends and sometimes just is a hassle. This doesn't mean I hate homework but it does mean that I sometimes dislike homework. I could change this by not spending so much time talking to Renee Wanke and spending more time doing my homework in the library. The last things that I am not grateful for is chores. It is not the worst thing on earth but it is pretty bad. When I have to do extra chores because my brothers are busy, I hate it. I could change this also by doing my chores faster maybe and getting to them just a little bit faster every night. Also by telling my little brothers to not make a huge mess. That is what I am not grateful for. || media type="custom" key="11410934" ||

 * My Favorite Christmas
 * I love the movie Soul Surfer. Soul Surfer is a movie that consists of hurt, love and just plain fun. If you haven't watched this movie yet, you're crazy. The first time I watched this movie I cried because it is so sad in the middle of it. I went to the movie theater with two friends and my mom the first time I watched this. Here if you haven't seen this movie I guess I will tell you what it is about. First there is this girl named Bethany and her best friend that are always surfing. They live somewhere off the coast of Hawaii. They are always together and are also home schooled together too. This girl, Bethany and her friend have the chance of being professional surfers. they go do a contest with other people that live around them. Bethany takes first and I think her friend takes like third place but anyways one day they are practicing for a guy that is going to give them money believe to become professional surfers. They are surfing with her friend and her friends brother and her friends father. They are taking a break in the water, when a shark comes up and bites Bethanne's arm off. She is immediately ran to the hospital and taking care of. she ends up losing her arm but is okay. Once she gets home, the doctor says she has to wait a little while until she goes surfing again. So she waits. When she finally is able to surf again she finds it very hard. She is still able to do it but it is still very hard on her. She gets pretty good so she ends up doing the semi finals. She ends up losing the semi finals and quits surfing forever, of what she says. She goes on a trip to a place where there was a big tsunami. She ends up learning that she is not the only one suffering from loss. She then goes back to where she lives and starts surfing again. She ends up in the finals and loses but everybody really likes her. This girl that hated her, started liking her too. That is my favorite movie because it shows love, respect, hurt and just plain family and friends.
