November 2 Journal

Hi. When you are done with today's journal, log into Study Island. You have 30 minutes to work in there and then I will talk with you about a new application.
  1. November is Aviation History Month. Imagine that you just realized that you can fly. Write about how you discovered this new ability.
  2. The first seven days in November make up World Communication Week. Imagine that you could not use a television, a telephone, a cell phone, or a computer for an entire week. What would be the most difficult thing about the week? The easiest? Explain.

If I had to go a week with no phone or television I would be bored to death. I wouldn't be able to pass the time playing video games and I couldn't talk to friends. I don't know what I would do for entertainment.

One day when I was swinging then I fell off but never hit the gound. Thats how I would figure out I can fly after I realise I fly over the house or around the yard. show My sister she might freak out.

The most difficult thing sbout not having a cell phone, telephone, or computer, is that it'll be harder to communicate with your friends that dont live by you. The easiest part, is that withen 2 streets away from me, I have my best friend kim, and then some of my other family. So that means if I needed to talk or just wanted to hang out with my family or Kim, then I can just walk a street or two over!

If I couldn't use a televison, telephone, cell phone or a computer for a whole week I wouldn't be able to talk to anyone or get any info in the news on whats happening in the world or anything thing in that sort.

the most difficult thing for not having a cell phone is that i would't get to talk to my friends and that would make me super man bcause if your friends leave and if you don't see them again. so cell phone come in handy.

If I could not use telecommunications for a week not using a cell phone would be the easiest because I do not have a cell phone. The Hardest part would be not be able to use a computer. This is because I use a computer for a lot of things Playing Games, Typing, Doing my homework and school work, Creating Pictures, and exploring the Internet.

The hard thing about the first week would be not useing a a cell phone. Thats just me because what if Im lost or something and I have to call my family or something else. I dont need tv because I could read a book or something else. But not haveing a phone is the hardest thing.

If I could not use any technology for a week the most difficult thing would be not being able to watch my favorite television programs. I can live without a telephone and a cell phone but having no television would feel like torture for me. I do often use a computer but I would be able to live without it for a week.I'd probably spend the entire week reading.

If I could not use a cellphone, telphone, telvision, or computer for one week then I think that the most difficult thing to do would be is to talk my friends and see if they could come some where with me. The easiest thing to do would be to spend some time with my family without a T.V. We could play a board game and have fun the old fashion way

If I was not to use the tv, telephone, cellphone, or computer I would be so upset with that. But what I would do is read my book. If I couldn't do any of those thing's. I would just read a book all week.

Lewis N 8a if i could not use my television,telephone,cell phone,or my computer for a week a would just be outside all day.But the bad thing would be that i could not call my friend and tell them to meet me somewhere i would just have to walk over there house and if they are not there then i would have to walk all the way back home. I would maybe makeing a lot of blank trips.

The most difficult thing about this week would be not being able to use my cell phone. I love my cell phone and if I wasn't able to use it I don't know what I would do. The easiest part would be not being able to use the computer.

If I has to go a week with no television or computer i would be so bored. The difficult thing about that is that I won't be able to see what's new on Friday's or Saturday's. The easiest is that I could just read a book while I'm not usuing it. So it would be able to survive.

The most hardest thing is that i cant use the computer or telivision because it is entertainment for me and i talk 2 friends on the computer and on the telephone. The easiest thing is the cell phone becuase i always use the house phone to talk to my freinds.

The hardest thing with out having a computer, television, cell phone, or a telephone is that I would not have anything to do. I would be bored to death. No one would be able to do anything without any of that stuff. It actually wouldn't be that bad because if your power goes out, then you wouldn't have it anyways. The easiest thing would be is that i have a digital camera, so therefore I can take a lot of pictures. So it wouldn't be that bad to not have a television, cell phone, a computer, or a televion.

If I did not have a cell phone for a week, I would go crazy! I use my phone for calling my family and friends, my alarm clock, and my planner. I am also addicted to texting. I use my computer for my homework; I type all of my homework. I am a history major and I use the internet for research. I would be lost without my computer. I do not have time to watch television so it would not be as bad to go without.

The hardest thing for me if I couldn't watch t.v , go on the phone, or the computer is to go in the phone or computer.That's the hardest thing for me because I'm almost on it all day.

If I couldn't use a phone, a computer,or watch television for a week I think I would faint.That would be horrible.The one I think would be the worst of all is not being able to watch T.V. for a whole week.This is because I watch it almost all the time.It would be a tragedy.
