What is an infographic? If you don't know, go look it up. Read about it and then in your own words tell me what an infographic is. What do infographics do? How do they work? What makes a really good infographic?
Find an example of a really cool infographic on the web and place it on your blog.
An infographic is a display of information that informs people about the topic that people highly care about. Infographics usually contain facts, statistics, charts, graphs, etc. They are useful for really getting your word out to the public without having to repeatedly tell people about your topic. What makes an amazing infographic are facts and data. On my infographic, my main topic will talk about endangered species.

Tell me about your Homecoming weekend! If you didn't participate in the Homecoming festivities, what did you do? Share pics
This weekend I did a lot of fun things. On Friday, I got stay at school until 6:30 doing homework and waiting for my mom to come get me. I skipped the game and got a grand Arby's dinner. At Arby's, I got a delicious brisket sandwich with amazing curly fries and to top it all of I got an awesome medium jamocha shake. The next day I got to go get a new bike and got to sleep. I absolutely loved getting a new bike and I was very much enjoying being able to ride it for the remaining weekend. When it reached night time I worked on my AP Human Geography homework and learned more about what population growth is. The last day of this weekend I helped out with Eli Kahns eagle scout project. I did this all day until it was done and then I went home and worked on my science article homework. This was my fun filled weekend.

Imagine Mr. Bacon has asked you to suggest one way of improving Blue Valley High School to make it a better place for students. Think about the changes that are needed at your school. Pick one change you feel would really make a difference and explain what it is and why you'd make the change.
If Mr. Bacon asked me to help improve the school I would recommend that he should improve the time school starts on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. I would tell him that he should start school at 8:30 and get out at 3:30. I like this time because it allows me to have a brain when school starts. I think this could help the school because then people can be more awake when class starts. This would help improve grades and make people truly focus on the subject that they need to learn without yawning. This is what I think are school could to do to improve.

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.
