The Wave 3

3.       What does this experiment say about the cause of the Holocaust?
      This experiment says alot about the cause of the Holocaust. The first reason is that good people can be brainwashed to do bad things. Another reason is that people should be an individual and not be persauded by a group.In the movie Mr.Ross was like Hitler, because he started the whole thing. This is the reasons to me what the experiment says about the Holocaust.

The Wave 2

2.       What does this film say about authority and power?
      This film says alot about authority and power. What the film sais about power is that you should use it wisely. You should use it wisely because with great power becomes great responsibility. What this film says about authority is that you shouldn't control your friends. If you control your friends you could lose some/most of them. In the movie Robert thought he was apart of something special but he was just acting like Hitler's assistant. Anyways the lesson is that you should use authority and power wisely or should use it at all.

The Wave

1.       How can the movements such as The Wave be defeated?
There is a few ways to defeat movements such as The Wave. One reason is that everyone could experience it so it doesn’t happen again. Another reason is to show everyone is responsible for their own actions. Third reason is that everyone didn’t like the freedom to do whatever they wanted. The reason why everyone loved The Wave is that they liked that Mr. Ross controlled what they did and had to do. This is some of the reasons how you can defeat movements like The Wave.

Expository Writing- The Internet

    There are many new inventions. There is good and bad, about inventions. There are good inventions that are very helpful. For example you can use the computer, to Google things you don’t know. Also it’s helpful; when you use a cellphone, to text someone that is far away, from you. There are also bad inventions that are a waste of time. There are inventions that are a waste of time, which is the computer. An invention that has had a huge impact on my life is the Internet.
    The first reason why the internet had an impact on my life is because it allows me to go on Facebook.  I go on Facebook to contact my friends and family. I contact my family because they all live in my hometown, Pelican Lake. I contact my friends because most of them live in Alberta. I also go on games, on Facebook. The games I play are Mini Planet, Farm Ville and City Ville. I go on those games to meet new people. Facebook is also a good place to chat with people your age and to share pictures.
    The second reason why the internet had an impact on my life is YouTube. I go on YouTube to listen to music and watch videos. I listen to music because there is very interesting music and funny music, also music you could relate to. I watch videos because there are funny videos, stupid videos and interesting videos. I watch funny videos because I like to laugh. I watch stupid videos because there is nothing better to do. I also watch interesting videos because they look interesting. YouTube is a good and fun place to go on.
    There’s also bad stuff about the internet. The bad things are you are anti-social, lazy, and non-energetic. You are anti-social because you don’t talk to anyone or you don’t want anyone to talk to you. You’re lazy because you try to get other people to do your stuff for you. You are non-energetic because you don’t do anything. You don’t do anything because all you do is type. There are lots of bad things about the internet but these are just some of the ideas I had.
     There are more bad and good things about the internet. There is good about Facebook because you can contact family and friends that are far away. There is also bad about Facebook like what people put on there that can offend people. There is good about YouTube like you can always have on there, like watching videos or listening to music. There is also bad about YouTube like people can put gross and sick videos on there. These are just my opinions about what is good and bad about the internet. What are yours?

Letter to Mr. Catton and Mrs. Nelson

August 31, 2011

Dear Mr. Catton, Mrs. Nelson,
         I am Taylor Bill. I am 12 years old.  My family has five people in it, but I only live with my mom, Loretta, my brother, Hunter, and my sister, Tessa.  My dad, Jamie and mom split up a little while after my little sister was born.  What I did this summer was I went to a gay parade witch was for legalizing gay and lesbian rights. When we were there we took lots of pictures with guys dressed up as girls, it was fun.   My hobbies are basketball, and drawing, and I am joining sea cadets, and swimming.  Also thank you for reading my letter!

Real Life Math- Reflection- Cooking with Fraction #2

We cooked with fractions today, agian. What went well was everything, but the muffings had lots of flour in them. What we had problems before was we didn't have all the dishes we needed, but Mrs. Nelson gave us some when we got there. What problems we had during this was we almost mixing up the baking powder and baking soda. What i learned was cooking with fractions are hard at times. It is easier to visualize, then to model. The part that was easy was mixing the batter. What part that was hard was getting the ingrediants. What will i do differently is not mix up with baking powder and baking soda and not put to much flour. Today was fun.
