Today we are doing an in-class debate on whether homework is essential, or should be banned.  The structure  is that each small group brainstorms the arguments for their side, they have 2 min. to argue.  After each team has had a chance to argue, then it is time to brainstorm each groups rebuttals. Then each group gets 2 min. for rebuttals.

First we watched the video below and took notes to help us get a start.

Today we are studying possessive adjectives.  We are going to watch the video below to help us understand how possessive adjectives work, and then we will complete the worksheet whilst using the “cheat sheets” provided.

22.11.06 possessive adjectives and gender

Below is the video lesson.

My trip to the shack

when me and my dad were the only ones at the house for the whole day because my sisters were at hockey we didn’t know what to do i had the idea to go to my uncles shack so my dad called my uncle and they said they were already going there my dad asked his friend if he wanted to come too. We went to his house and picked him up and started driving to the shack it was at least a 30-20 minuet drive. We went down this long skinny road then we got to pick go through the field or through the man made trail. we made a big mistake for taking the trail it was super narrow and bumpy there were ruts, pot holes, and stumps and it felt like there was a million turns.

We finally saw the shack through the trees. It was a white and blue trailer that my aunt and uncle turned into a little shack. When we walked in it was cold (freezing). My aunt and uncle who owned the shack was there and so was my other aunt and uncle where also there then my other aunt and uncle came with there kids (both younger). after they came my aunt’s and uncle’s (the ones who owned the shack) daughter with her boyfriend came to the shack.

once that all happened it was probably an hour  or two and it was getting pretty warm in there from the furnace that was in there so all of the guys went outside my dads friend went to the bathroom behind the truck. my aunty had an air horn.poor guy i went up behind him an pressed the button he got so scared so i ran back to the shack laughing and put the air horn back. When it was about 7:45 me my dad and his friend left the shack.

This isn’t the real photo but it kindve looks like this just smaller and not so much windows

Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast. Jimmy was born on May 7, 1998 at Wichita, Kansas, United States.

MrBeast created his YouTube channel on February 20, 2012 and expecting no one to subscribe, however his YouTube channel was not called MrBeast at the time, it was beast5ty, beast5ty was his Xbox Live Gamertag, he made videos with a 9 dollar headset and a copy of Call of Duty: MW3. beast5ty was failing miserably getting barley andy views, so beast5ty started using sub4sub, where you subscribe to a channel and they subscribe to you back, he kept using sub4sub and got 7k subs, then the beast5ty channel got deleted.

Jimmy then created a new channel called that-dude with Call of Duty, Pokemon, and Minecraft video’s, shortly after, the channel’s name turned into MrBeast6000. Jimmy then created gaming videos for 6 months without using sub4sub and earned 300 subs, Jimmy kept uploading more videos and gained 1000 subs. Later on Jimmy almost quits YouTube after not uploading videos for a month. After Jimmy earns a lot of subscribers his mom finds out that he was creating content on YouTube for 3 years and his mom not knowing about it. Jimmy then gets 10000 subscribers and he no longer enjoys making video game commentary videos. A new guy appears on the channel, his name is Chris Tyson, they make meme videos and vines.

Jimmy got tired of the 6000 at the end of MrBeast, so Jimmy takes out the 6000 and  his channel turns in MrBeast. MrBeast has been doing ridiculous challenges when he reached 100000 subscribers like, reading the whole dictionary, and counting to 100000 in 24 hours. MrBeast then started to give out money to the homeless, and other people too. MrBeast got more friends to join him do crazy challenges like, buying a car with pennies, and more. A few years later MrBeast creates a new channel called MrBeast Gaming, MrBeast Philanthropy, and MrBeast Reacts.

Anyway thats it for my blog bye!

Today we are extending our studies on the human heart with Bill Nye.  This episode is specifically aimed at the human heart to teach us the parts, how it works, and to show it’s overall importance to the human body.  Our past studies on cells will also tie in (you will see).  Check out the video below and the worksheet studied in class.  Students are expected to watch the video and complete the associated worksheet in preparation for our quiz on the human heart (coming soon).Heart_-_Bill_Nye_Heart_Questions
