Weekly Blog...

Week of Sept. 17th - 20th, 2012

In Introduction to Publication we conquered a lot.  At the beginning of the week we acquired new partners. In one of my earlier weekly blogs I told you about our partners and the reason why we have them. We were told that we would probably switch about every two weeks.We then peer edited our new partners. It really has helped me with my new profound love of weekly blogging.

Sometime this week we are supposed to vote on our Animotos. I really liked two peoples! I won't tell who... although everyone's was very good. I can't wait till we do vote. We haven't voted yet, I don't know why.

For a weekly habit we do a new stems list. On each list there is twenty-five. We have a quiz every two weeks on the words. I like making flashcards because it is really easy to carry around everywhere. I tend to study the stems more. That is a positive side for once. It really helps me keep my grade steady.

This week we took a grammar test. In previous blogs I told you how we do daily grammar sentence correcting. We have to know every little detail that goes on in a sentence. You probably can tell I don't like it. I know it will help in the future but right now, it is very aggravating. I feel it has a negative drag to it.

In class we did learn about this online "Digital Driver's License". I really do not know what it is about. I can tell you it is not a driving game. I was hoping it was that! I dare-say that it is about digital citizenship. The first lesson we did was about cyber bulling and how it does hurt people. It played two YouTube videos of girls my age that got bullied. That was really sad to watch.

Weekly Accumulated Vocabulary:

• Reputation: The general impression of a person held by others and the public.
• Persist: To continue and endure.
• Context: Different factors that surround a piece of information that helped determine meanings.
• Tag: To add description, label, or name to a photo/video. Another word for {caption}.

In class talked about each of these words. Online anything can be private today and public tomorrow. I did a mini project in class one day. I had to go onto flickr cc, find a photo that I could edit. When I did find one I had to edit it. One positive, negative and the orginal. Here are my pictures.

This is the original photo. It is so cute with the kittens.



Negative, when I did this one I thought of hate. Typically people don't burn photos for no reason.



Postive, I feel that when I edited this photo it did not put a bad reputation for this person.

So this week has gone by surprisingly fast. We have been loaded down with work, Welcome to High School!! Oh well, at the end it will pay off. The week has also been very busy other than homework. Another week of quizzes and test. That's about it this week, so Blog you later.
