My blog! We are doing a Web Quest to use up the rest of the time this quarter and to learn something new. A Web Quest is an organized search. Web Quests are inquiry based searches. If kids do Web Quests in their elementary years, their learning is enhanced. Anyone can set up a Web Quest. The idea of a Web Quest is for the "Quester" to learn something new. Depending on the age group, quests can be as short as a single class period or as long as a month-long unit. Web Quests were originally designed by Bernie Dodge and Tom March. ||  || 1.

 * 1/3/12 Resolutions

My New Year resolution is to listen to my parents and don't give them attitude. In order to make sure I follow through with it, I will take the following actions. I will do what they ask the first time. In order to do that I will listen to everything and and do everything to the best of my ability. I will also do everything that they ask. If I don't like the thing that I have to do, I will do it anyway. I will also think through what I say before I say it. I will not say anything disrespectful to them. That is my New Years resolution. corrected by Beau! Some things I thought you could do to fix your paragraph are: starting some of your sentences with another word than I. || || My teacher, Mrs. Williamson, is the most like the hens. I think that she is most like the hens because she is kinda scatterbrained. She doesn't like to plan ahead. Mrs. Williamson is like the hens because she isn't very organized. || || I choose Cars. The movie is about a race car. The racecars' name is Lightning McQueen. He is red and of course he has a lightnin bolt on it. He goes to race for the Piston Cup. He has a close race with The King and Chick Hicks. He doesn't win but the three of them tied. The three cars will have a tie-breaker race in California one week from the first race. There is a sponsor named Dinico. The three cars all want to have Dinico as their sponsor. They decide that the first car to California gets to be with Dinico. Lightning McQueen really wants to win time with Dinico. Lightning asks his transportation to go through all night to California. His transportation's na me was Mac. Mac was taking a short nap when Lightning's toy car made the back door opn. ||  || In the book __Animal Farm__ by George Orwell, there are animals of many different personalities. I think that I would be most like Boxer. I would not be as physically strong as him, but I would work very hard. Boxer has the potential to be a great leader, but doesn't speak up. I think that I could be a good leader, but I would be scared that Napoleon would kick me out like he did to Snowball. Boxer is nice and often takes one for the team. He cares a lot about everybody else, sometimes even more than himself. Even though I am not a strong horse, I think that I am a lot like him. Your paragraph has a good format. You do sound a lot like boxer according to this paragraph...Where the crap is that picture you promised. Good job actually doing your homework. ||  || I am in connections right now and I am not in good standing. If you are not in good standing, that means you either have a D or F in one subject or you have missed 2 days of the same class in 7 days. I am in "bad standing" because I have a D+ in band. I don't really like the idea of this because you can't do anything for make-up besides practicing. On the other hand, it is good for the people who need to do some work. If they could do one thing to improve the "e period", then they could have a contract. The contract could be an agreement where you could go and get the teachers signature then take it to Mr. Berringer or Mrs. Fagenstrom. Then if your connection teacher approves of you being in good standing then she would sign it and you would take it back to Mrs. Fagenstrom or Mr. Berringer. That is what I think of good standi ng. || || Even though Thanksgiving is this weekend, there are still a few things that I'm not grateful for. One of the things I don't like are chores. I especially don't like them right now because there are alot more when family comes around. On the other hand it keeps our house clean and sometimes I get paid. One of the other things that I am not greatful for is homework. I don't like homework because I have about 30 minutes before my practice and about 2 hours after. Some positive things about homework are: You get better grades and you can learn more. It can also be used as an excuse to get out of chores. The third thing that I am not grateful for are alarm clocks. Alarm clocks are very useful but really annoying. I like them because they get me up on time. Those are three things that I am not grateful. || ||
