Challenge # 7 - Activity # 6

Here are a variety of activities you might consider doing.

Write a comic strip as a hero wanting to save some aspect of the environment.
Your worries regarding the environment – what can you do as a student?

Some worries i have about the enviorment is our area can be filled with trash if we don't use the trash cans properly thats why they are there, you shouldnt be lazy and just throw it on the floor it kills the earth, what i can do is put trash cans around our area and make sure people are using them or once in a while we can walk around our area and pick up trash with friends. We can do a little action, and every action can lead to something better and better.

Create an animoto about the environment – maybe you worry about the polar bears. Find images from links on this post.

Write a post about an environmental field trip you went on, maybe to the rubbish dump or cleaning up a creek etc.
A enviormental field trip i went on is with a club called Lei Ilima Girls club, we went around our area and picked up rubish. I had a good time because i got to do a good avtion while hanging out with my friends, me and my friends felt good about it. We made a posotive change.

Challenge # 7- Activity # 5

On one of the animal shows on TV, they have had a series called ‘Great Migrations’ where they have been following many of the herds of African animals as well as others like caribou and birds. Have you noticed any animals in your area which are there at certain times of year but then they disappear? Do some research on one of these animals or birds. Now tell your readers all about the animals you see around your area.
Yes sometimes i do see animals disappear around my area and the type of specie i am talking about is butterflys, they disappear somewhere around the year, I know some things about butterflys.. i know they migrate to a different place times in the year. Some animals i see around my area are mostly dogs, maybe some cats, birds, butterflys, and maybe more. ^__^

Challenge # 7- Activity # 4

Has your family always lived where you are living now? Have you ever lived in far away places? Maybe early members of your family have migrated from another country to where you live now. How do you think they might have felt moving to the other side of the world? Interview some of your older relatives and find out about their early lives. How is it different to your life as a child?
First of all no, my family never really always lived here, they migrated some where else and then they bought this house that i am living in right now. I haven't lived in a far away place before, i didn't even move before. How i think they felt moving to here and leaving there place is maybe kind of excited, because they get to travel and expirience more, but sad because theyre leaving a place they have been born on and theyre starting a kind of new life on another place. Life as a child back then was different. Many things had changed during the past years.

Challenge # 7- Activity # 3

CELEBRATIONS & FAMILY. ♥

Do you ever have big family get-togethers?

Can you remember a story told at one of these gatherings?

hmm, i think i do. They told me a story about my child hood and sometimes they would say its been a while.

Challenge # 7- Activity # 2

Do you have any special celebrations in your country to remember those who have fought for your country?
Yes, of course we do. Those who fought for our life will always be remembered by our countrys hearts ♥

Challenge # 7- Activity 1

In this activity we have to discuss anything in class that related about earth day, and if we didn't do nothing we had to talk about what we could of done to help the earth. First of all we actually did something that related to earth day. We turned off our lights in our classroom but usually it was for more cooling. Anothering thing we did was not really use the computers, unless its for homework or for something we needed to do.

Challenge # 6- Activity # 6

Wordle isn't working right now so im going to this activity at school.

Challenge # 6- Activity # 3.

Think about something important you have learned outside of school – remember we should all be life long learners not just learners while at school. How did you learn it? Why is it important to you? Who or what taught you about it? How has this learning helped you in your life?

Something that i have learned outside of school is always have manners. How i learned that is from my parents and when i was younger. This lesson is important to me because being kind is a very good thing and manners make you more mature instead of acting very rude to people. You should have manners because it will teach you how to be nice and to do good stuff. This helped me in life because it made me who i am right now.

Challenge#6- Activity 1.

In this activity 1, we have to write about persuasive style of writing. In this post i am going to make my own writting on a topic of my choice. My topic is about Easter. Easter is a time were you spend time with your family and enjoy the life you have gotten. Today i went church and they were talking about being joyful about your living and much more. <3 right now we are celebrating easter. Me and my family is gathering together for a dinner and we are going to hvae fun! ^-^ HAPPY EASTER GUYS! <3 ^---^

NIGHT.

Nighty night. sweet dreams. <3

week number5. Activity 9 – Write a sentence using images – no writing

WEEK #5. Activity 7 – Tell the story of the picture

From Bill Ferreirae – I sometime find a picture and tell students to use that picture to come up with a story. It can be about the picture, what happened before, what will happen next, etc. So, at the top of this post is the image I have chosen for you to start with. Copy the image to your post, then write the story. Remember to give attribution. If you don’t have your own blog, tell your story in a comment here.
since i couldn't find the picture... here is one picture i found.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/57038667@N00/442885643/
it was a cold, freezing evening. its was about sunset time, snowflakes just falling onto the lushish ground covered with snow already, it was the beginning of winter. As jolene was walking back home from the market around the corner to get her family some ingredients for tomorrow's gathering. She noticed a shadow follow her, while she looked behind she saw tracks that led to a tree just about a few steps behind her. as she followed them a cold misty breeze passed her giving her goosebumps. She took a fast glimpse and looked again, before she knew it.. she found her grandpa's horse, one tear falling on the right side of her face. and saying "oh, misty. im glad your home." " i wonder you been?!" but at least your back, safe and sound, lets go take you to our family. <3

We tried this activity in the last challenge in September. Choose a picture, and have your readers zoom out, so to speak, by leaving comments. So maybe something simple, like a pillow, and the first commenter describes something bigger around the pillow (like a couch) and the next commenter would write about the room it was in, and the next could zoom out the window and do the house, etc. If doing this activity, include the word ‘zoom’ in your title so I can find it easily. Remember to give attribution. Most important here is to read previous comments, so you can add to the story.
1)These stuffed bears are sitting on my bed.
2) ....

For the second picture it is come what the same as the first one, they are both flowers, but this picture has a different color. blue, it gives the picture a mood, and makes it more uniqe.
and the 3rd picture, this picture makes me feel happy. it brings out alot of colors, and represents how i like different colors. (:

This event happened last week On March 31 and April 1 elementary schools came to Ilima such as kaimiloa, Holomua, Ewa Elem, Pohakea and iriquos and keonalua, They came because if the students are wondering about going to this intermediate they would have a better look at it, and know the school much more better. Also to give the basic information if they are coming to Ilima intermediete. You see that picture up there? ^^^^^ yeep. thats the leadership family, we made banners to show more of a visual picture and if they couldn't understand what the speakers was saying, the information would be on the poster with picture. We also showed that live broadcast for our school such as the tv. We also gave a tour around the school so they know were the basics of the school so they know when they get here (: we all gave an example of our dress code here in ilima, what to do and what not to do. This was a fun expirience with the 6th graders and it was also a greaaaat expirience for us leadership, :)

Activity 4 – Write a post about the importance of tags and categories

Why should regular users of the internet be using tags and categories whenever they leave a footprint on the web?
They should be using tags and categories whenever they leave a footprint on the web because so they can track it down, and search it up to see the information that was given so you can trace back to it if you need it.
Where are users asked to use tags?
Users are asked to use tags in maybe important posts and information, or maybe sometimes when you are refering to something. Or seeing the main ideas in writtings.
What is geotagging?
With geotagging, your JPEG photos are labeled, or “tagged”, to show where they were taken. Also View photos on a map. Search photos by location.
Why did you decide on those categories for your blog?
I picked these categories because it connects to me.

Friday, April 1, 2011

Week Number 4-

Why are categories and tags important when writing your posts?
I think categories and tags are important when writting posts because Categories are like the chapter headings in books, and thats important when writting a post, its like a title leading the whole post. while tags are like the index words at the back of a book. for refrences, and to point out the main ideas of the whole chapter.
Where else do you find tags used in technology?
Where else i find tags in technology is, for example Blogger we had to make a Link and when you click it, it is splited and more organized for your blogger website. Also we find it in our technology such as our phones, we have an inbox to see messages and its like a reference if we never see it in the beginning.
