Technology in School Paragraph

         Ms. Priester uses technology to help me learn how to  submit work using forms which help things get organized according to, class, assignment, and student. For example when I started off my year as a freshman Ms. Priester introduced the class to blogger and forms. At first I started off with a bad grade because I wasn't used to forms and blog posts but now it is simple and actually very easy. This helps me because instead of writing down on a piece of paper, which kills trees, we get to use technology which is one of the very easy things to do. Another way it helps me is being organized when using Google docs that way we have a folder of which we keep track of all our assignments shared automatically to Ms.Priester. Future teachers can help their students to learn by using technology because in the future everything will be advanced so we should start learning now to be prepared for the future.

Academic Language Week 24 - Online Learning

 Online learning is not an effective way to educate students because students nowadays need to work on their social skills. Another reason is because teens need to work on getting up and walking to school so that way they don't stay home and be lazy. The differentiation of working on a computer and going to school is you can get your stuff organized if you turn everything instead of struggling on making new document on the computer. Online learning is not an effective way to educate students because being with a teacher and being able to ask the questions when the teachers are their is better because that way you can clarify whatever it is you need help with. The last reason why online learning is a noneffective way to educate students can learn easier in class when teacher know what the student is or needs help with for example if learning the area of a square, teacher can help them then and there, but online you have to wait until the teacher is back online. I think online learning is not an effective way of learning because of other distractions while online.

Academic Language Week 23 - Dog Fighting

Dog fighting should be illegal because some dogs don't have the potential do fight with a bigger dog at times. Another reason why dog fighting should be illegal is because it can not only harm the dog but it can also harm the animal lovers. There is many more different ways or formulas to solve dog fighting. For those who take pleasure from watching dog fighting, there is better things to do. To me this is a very distinct situation as in something I will definitely never forget. I think do fighting should be illegal because I am a animal lover myself and to hear and see dog fights is terrible towards those who love to watch it.

Imagery in Poetry Blog Post Paragraph

2 years ago, my cousin died in a car accident.
Crashing on the bridge I felt the tears running down my face.
Running to my aunt’s house with the fastest pace.
I couldn't imagine anything more worse then hearing her shout,
"NOT MY SON, PLEASE!!"
With my mom touching my back telling me it was OK
Everything just seemed and looked Grey.
Right there all I smelled was the bad feeling of negativity.
With my face full of tears now I tasted them getting in my mouth.
Myself feeling down, tearful, depressed and sorrowful.
I hated being here, I hated feeling this way.This actually seemed more like a fray.

Academic Language Week 22 - Felons Voting

Felons should be allowed to vote because they are some of the percent that make this country. They are citizens which means they have the right to vote just as the rest of us do. Sometimes when felons don't get the right to vote they see it as a complex and they thinks too much of it. This is why I am writing this because felons should be allowed to vote. Being relevant, felons should also have a say and voices whom should be heard. The main source in this situation is that if felons don't get to vote  then they don't get their voices to be heard which changes a lot of things even though it might not seem like it. This is what I think about felons being able to vote.

Poetry Previous Knowledge Paragraph

Prompt B: Would you rather read a story or a poem?

            I would rather read a story. I choose a story because most stories explain what they main subject or moral is, but poems use similes it uses hyperboles and all types of other things that make a poem sound exiting or interesting to read, My opinion is that poems are interesting to read but I think stories are easier to understand because stories don't have more complicated sentences and things that are comparing in order for you to understand what the next sentence is going to be about.

            Poem has never been my thing. If I write a poem I am surprised at myself but I write stories easier. Writing is my favorite subject but I would rather write a story rather than write a poem also because I can give the main point right in the story not like poems you have to put in rhymes, hard core vocabulary and other things.

            I like reading stories. My favorites are Auto-biography. I like when authors just tell me in the story "I got shot yesterday" instead of “I felt the pain in my shoulder as it bled through my shirt, feeling the bullet I could not move." I think it is easier to read a small sentence letting me know what is going on.
