Challenge 7- 5 Really Awesome Bloggers

Holly, Adriena, Karlet, Jessica, Brittany, Kelly, Hannah, Taylor, Jaymie, CJ, and Kelsey These are good friends to help me with next weeks blog--Challenge 8 One of those people could be the best writer to represent our class.




Earth Day is a day of remembrance set to show good things about our Earth's environment. It began with Gaylord Nelson, a U.S. Senator, when he was involved in an environmental teaching on April 22, 1970. Earth Day in celebrated on the 22 of April because that is the same day on which the teaching occurred. The name, Earth Day, was picked by several people because they said, "It was a obvious and logical name." Earth Day is a wonderful day to help out the environment. I typically don't celebrate Earth Day in either my school or town. Maybe we will do something special for the important day in Biology tomorrow. Every year I help pick up the garbage in the ditch along my street with my family. We do not pick up the garbage on April 22, Earth Day just made me think of this because it helps the environment. I did Google Earth Day to learn more about it. I made a link to Wikipedia on the title for this paragraph. I got all the information I needed to write this paragraph from Wikipedia.

Challenge 6

Challenge 6

1. Blog Roll Holly, Adriena, Karlet, Jessica, Brittany, and Kelly

2. I feel that the six people mentioned in number one should be added to your blog roll. Holly, Adriena, Karlet, Jessica, Brittany, and Kelly all have their own ideas that are different from everyone else. Looking at their blogs you will most likely learn something new because everyone has their own ideas and opinions. Their work is well done and deserves to be recognized by others.

3. School Work- English 10, School Work- English 10- Challenge, and Random Fun

4. I categorized my blogs according to the work they describe. The titles are listed in number three if you are interested. I gave them the follow name because it best fits why the blog was published. Most of the blogs are written for English class, giving them the tile of School Work- English 10. If there is ever a blog that was not assigned to me, it will be label Random Fun. Blogging is a great way for me to express my feelings upon the given topic.

Challenge 5

Challenge 5

I think my blog should have a creative common license. I would like a license on my blog because it is my work and I don't want others to get credit for it. I don't think others deserve the right to use or change my work. I feel that it is unfair for others take my work and ideas to create their own. My audience is mainly student from my school and others that are involved in the blogging challenges. I know about half of the people that comment on my blog. The creative common license will help keep my blog safe from others.

Animal Farm

Movie Clip-- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2Lj-

I found this clip to be helpful because it gives a brief summary of the whole story I am currently reading in English class. I am reading this story to improve my English and learn more about the Russian Revolution. However, I am unsure why we are learning about the revolution in English class. It is a part of the past that would make more sense if I was learning about this in History. I chose this clip because I found it has the greatest impact on me. This clip helps me keep the animals apart and follow the plot easier, remembering all the small details. After watching this funny clip, I remember the story with greater detail. I believe this clip would have been better without the stupid people doing dumb acts. This is a wonderful clip to watch if you are looking for a brief summary of Animal Farm.
