March 7 Journal

Hi. I am in the office again today. I watched you on the web cam at your last class and still some of you are out of your seat. Remember you will be receiving a zero if you get out of your seat during class. Please stay seated.
7th grade- Work in Study Island for the first half and My Access the second half. You need to finish your persuasive wizard, insert, and reformat your essay. Remember you need to add an introduction to the front of your thesis and add a closing after your third argument. Remember this will be 5 paragraphs and is the format of an essay NOT a letter.
6th grade- Work in Study Island to get rid of your red triangles. There are far too many students who have not received a blue ribbon because they are not getting rid of the triangles.
  1. Imagine you are an animal living on a farm or in a zoo. Describe what your everyday life would be like.
  2. The game Monopoly was invented on this day in 1933. Imagine that the Parker Brothers Company has asked you to design a new version of the game. Describe what you would change.

I wouldn't change anything about the new Monopoly because I think it's a good upgrade from the ogiginal one.

If i was asked to change the monoply game i would change it so the game isn't that long because not everone wants to play their first round for 3 hours!

Every day would pretty much be the same if I was an animal in the zoo. Except seeing new people every day and on rare occassions the same people that I don't rmember.

If I were an animal in the zoo i'd be a horse being a horse ould be okay i guess. I'd get to have people ride me I can injure them make them fall and have to go to the hospital that's be funny. Also, i'd be healthy because of the healthy food i'd get. Last, i would be one of the most prettiest animals anywhere because i tend to turn males on.

I would not change much at all really to the game. The game board would be about Marvel charachters. For example, the cover when you go buy it would say Marvel and have Spider Mann and all those other charachters. It would cost a little more than the original price. It would have the same game play.

If I was an animal in the zoo I would be very mad. One of the reasons on why I would be mad is that I would have no life. The other reason is that I would not have a family
