What is email? When do you use email in your own personal life? List reasons and ways that people use email. What do you know about "email etiquette"?
An e-mail is a form of communication used by everyone to stay in touch. E-mails are very secure and people use them in order to get privacy with other people. E-mails often include adds, coupons, bills, information on projects, and notifications. E-mail etiquette usually consists of words like "Dear Person" and " Sincerely person." In the email, people usually have an etiquette ending like "Thank you for your time." This is my opinion of what a e-mail is.

Now that you've been in Emerging Technology for several weeks... what do you think? Do you think the web tools (Drive, Evernote, Bubbl, etc.) are helpful to you? Do you think they will be helpful throughout high school or even college? Explain.
Emerging technology is a great class that I actually took last year at Lakewood Middle School. I think that emerging technology's is a great class to take to learn more about researching and global issues. I re-took it because I needed a credit for a technology class to graduate. I want to take web design if I can one year because I love programming. The web tools you have showed us are very nice because they make researching a topic for a class a whole lot easier. This will help me in high school get better grades. I am excited to be in this class.

Do you enjoy writing? When do you enjoy it? What kind of writing do you enjoy? Why do you think the ability to write is so important no matter what kind of writing it is? Give an example that you enjoyed writing or hated writing. Why?
Yes, I enjoy writing because it gives me a way to express myself. I like to write at school and at home because those are the only times I am able to write. I like to write stories and songs about anything in life. Writing is significantly important because without it people could not explore themselves and there imagination. One example, is when I had to write a bibliography about someone I care for. I enjoyed doing it because it gave me a chance to understand more about the person I picked.

Reflect on this quote. Give an example of a time in your life that this might have been the case.
This quote means that if you don't spend the time to give what you want to the teachers than your destined to fail. This means that if you want A grades than you have to commit the time in order to excel. If you don't spend the time than you are not going to make A grades. One time this was a case for me was when in 7th grade I failed a science test because I didn't study. Amount of time is equal to your grade on the project.

What did you do this weekend? Share pictures if you have them!
This weekend was amazing because I got to go to my Grandpa's lake cabin that's outside Union, Nebraska. The reason I went up there was because of a rumor an Aurora Borealis would be there that night. The Aurora didn't appear but I still got to stay at the lake cabin. On Saturday, I got to golf cart with my little sister. We stopped at the park and caught some frogs. I also got to go boating with my mom, sister, and Grandpa Zaydeh. We hit some waves and it was awesome! That Saturday night, I drove my mom and sister back home. On Sunday, I got to go to Hebrew school and learned more about Israel. The rest of the day we got pizza at Sam's and Chicken Wings from Tanners. It was delicious! Later that night, I studied Spanish vocab for the Tuesday, Spanish test. This was my fun filled weekend!

What is the importance of research? Why do you need to know how to research? What have you learned in high school about researching topics and finding quality resources? Have you had a helpful teacher that has taught you to research? Explain
Research is when you find out more about a topic like endangered species.Research is very important because it helps us to find more out topics. We need research because without it we would be clueless about the world. What I know about research is that you should always cite your sources. In high school, I have learned that you always need multiple articles to guarantee you know what your talking about. The more articles you have the better prepared you are with the assignment. For example, science fair needs a lot of research in order to know what you are performing scientifically. The most helpful teachers for research are my ELA teachers because they teach me everything about research I know. This is why research is very important.

For my global issue in Emerging Technology I have chosen Endangered Species. I have begun researching the issue and you can find my research questions here.
