A web quest is used to find information and to place it within a topic, which either informs, persuades, or entertains. Generally, most web quests are made to inform the creator, and others about a topic. Web quests are about finding information on the internet from either selected sources or sources of your own, and to put them together to form an idea or conclusion about a topic. For example, most web quests start on one page that have directions.It will then ask you questions and tell you how or where to find them. You will then be directed by the page on how to show your investigation work in some form of document or web page. Web quests often ask questions that would appear to be only answered by doing or following them in real life. However, web quests are able to take advantage of the internet and use it for information or sources. ||  || My new years resolution is to work harder on homework and to complete assignments if I miss them. In order to make sure I follow through with it, I will take the following steps. The first step is to not let myself do any fun activity before finishing up late or missing work. Even if I have extra days to complete the assignment, I still will force myself to do it as soon as I can. If I can, I will tell my parents to help stop me from doing other things before I complete my school work. Another step is to dedicate more school time to finishing up work when I have the opportunity. For example, I will spend more time in my study hall working to complete missing work. I will also use up as much time as possible in class, working on both the current assignment and any I missed. The final step is to try and make doing work as fun and comfortable as possible. My new desk at home is much more comfortable then my old one. I can also possibly take breaks, but I cannot get caught up in the breaks and never finish my school work. Attempting school work early, dedicating more school time, and allowing myself to be as comfortable as possible will help me get schoolwork completed and on time.

Jordan, good job. Over all your paragraph was good. You could try and make it more exciting, though. Also, you could do stuff like set an alarm to go off every day when you get home to remind you to do your homework. Finally, I was wondering.... is this your resolution because you already have a problem with doing your work? If you do, then how did you get into ECS? Your welcome for the feedback. || || My teacher, Mr.Agamenoni is least like the character Napoleon from Animal Farm for the following reasons. The first reason is that Napoleon lies and spreads propaganda. Because Mr.A is a teacher, he cannot do that. He also allows us to find our own information on the different subjects we learn about. Another reason is that Napoleon runs Animal Farm like a dictatorship. Mr.A runs the classroom like a democracy. He even allows us to vote on things like hair style on the wiki. The last thing is that Napoleon purposely goes against his own rules. Mr.Agamenoni sticks by his rules and doesn't allow others to break them. If he did go against his own rules, he allow us too as well. Lying, propaganda, dictatorships, and hypocrisy are all reasons why Mr.A isn't like Napoleon. || || The movie I watched was inception. I liked the movie because of its soundtrack in the background, which in my opinion made it much better. I watched it alone on my computer. I liked it a lot because it had to do with dreams and paradoxes. It made you think about how similar the dream world and the real world are, and the endless possibilities within dreams. The movie also has one of the better cliff hanger endings of movies i've seen. It was directed by Christopher Nolan and came out in 2010. The music in the movie was composed by Hans Zimmer. I don't normally watch films, but I'm glad I saw this. ||  || The animals that I am most similar to from Animal Farm are the pigs. One reason why I think this is because I like to be in control of things and people. I often like to do things on my own. However I do not like to talk or boss around people, but to simply just be the one who comes up with ideas. I would actually prefer being in a group of leadership, like all the pigs. I think that I am much like the pigs because of how they come up with ideas. I like to come up with ideas just like the pigs do. I especially like to come up with rules, trying to make them as fair as possible. Although, I wouldnt try and trick the farm animals into a false sense of fairness like the pigs do. This is why I think im like the pigs in Animal Farm. || media type="custom" key="11640212" || Even though Thanksgiving is this weekend,there are still a few thing that I am not grateful for. One thing I'm especially not grateful for is homework. I hate having to take books home just so I can spend twenty minutes of my time working on things I think we should do in class instead. However, I usually get homework done on time, and in return get points that counts towards my grade. Another thing that I dont like is having to clean my house before holidays with families. I end up having to clean parts of the house that no one will be for more then a few seconds. Although, many times I end up cleaning parts of the house that in the end, makes my life a little more comfortable. One of the most common things I am not grateful for is having the terrible feeling on weekday mornings when I realize I have to go to school. I would much prefer to just go back to bed and then be able to do what I want with the rest of my day. But, of course, school allows me to do that after I retire. So, even though thanksgiving is this weekend, I'm still quite ungrateful for many things. || ||
