Personal post - undercover deputies

I think that if they wanted to fit in they should join a sports team. Sports are pretty big at our school and I think if you're on a sports team you're kind of in a brotherhood so it would be pretty good  if you were trying to fitting in if you were involved with sports.

Personal post - Austin Kleon

I liked this newspaper black out he did because of the little graphics he put in it. Like the little cloud and the umbrella. It also kind of looks like he colored the newspaper with the pattern of rain. Or maybe that's just the way he was holding his marker and it started to run out of ink. But I'm going to think he did that on purpose to look like rain.

Personal post - newspaper blackout.

3 main points about what news paper blackout is:

Treat the newspaper as a blank canvas.

Glance/scan over the newspaper don't read it.

Transform the raw material of the article into your own.

Transform the article into a different meaning to make a statement.

Circle the words you want to keep.

Don't be specific in the type of article your choosing. 

"You're shopping for words."

Don't just summaries the article.

Personal post - spring!

I'm so happy that spring has finally come! The winter was so long and cold it seemed like spring would never come, but it did! It just kind of sucks that it's May and it only started to get nice out. But atleast spring has finally come! 

Ted talk reflection: underwater ashtonishments

I found this ted talk really interesting, because of all the cool things we don't even know about that are under the water. I found the lights that the different fish made were really cool. They use those florescent colours to either attract other fish, or to fight off the predators that come near them. It's interesting how we don't know about so many amazing things. Like how the speaker said some of the tallest mountains are under the water. And how there is underwater waterfalls and lakes, and I think that's so cool that things like that exist under the water, and how there could be so much more under the water that we don't know about. I also found it interesting that animals can change into their surrounding so well that you don't even notice if they're there. So many interesting things are under the water that we don't even know about.

Quick write - worst meal ever

The worst mean would smell like an out house. It would have the texture of fur or be very chewy and almost impossible to chew. It would stink up your home for days and the smell would linger on your breath for days as well. It would taste like the after taste of puke in your mouth but you can't brush your teeth. This is what I picture to be the worst meal!
