Summer comes and the trees are blooming.

Slow soft starts up motion.

Beautiful blooms start to sway.

roots twist and turn up, what a treat

Leaves rolling so naturaly

Quick winds blow and the trees sway.

When the sun shines and the wind slows.

Bird’s chirp and trees creek.

Winding twisting, fighting for sun

Trees split to twos and threes.

Old and young stay as one.

Light and dark twist to one.

Bird’s flyover head in twos and ones. 

Has something weird ever happened to you? Well today the first day of April it snowed a couple of inches. When I got up and saw the snow I thought that it was too late in the year for snow. Even if there is snow could it be at least enough snow for a snow day. Then it being the April fool’s Day later in the day it started raining. So during lunch break you would be running in a game if tag, ha ha I’m getting away! Slip, oof, aw man my clothes are soaked! So you spend the rest of the day soaked. Then when you’re plodding around all day in slush its no fun at all, it actually makes you more depressed. Seriously no one was happy, no one was walking around, “yay slush the best kind of annoying muck on the ground, O slush please don’t go away I think you’re so cool” no one was like that…April fools! Wow you’re so gullible that was so obvious that it was all sunny and nice out. Well no it was a terrible and snowy and slushy day. To bad that wasn’t a April fools prank.    

On March the 27 Ms.Waters wrote a post challenging other classes to writing a post an how blogging has either helped you build a global audience or how a blogging has changed your life, or a post showing what you know about media on blogs.

During the time that our class has been blogging I have learned about how to write. Before our class started blogging I didn’t really bother with writing because I knew that after the teacher marked your writing it was forgotten.

• When our class started blogging even after the assignment was handed in other people could give feedback about your writing.
• When something really interesting happens in my life that I would want to share with more than the class I can write about it on my blog.
• With blogging you can connect with other people with the same interests.
• One of the most special things when start blogging is when you see that first dot on your cluster map (our class even still get exited when we see a new dot on our cluster maps, ssh)

If you blog what is your favorite part of blogging if you blog and if you don’t what sounds most interesting about blogging.

During September me and my dad went to Toronto Ontario to watch my two favorite teams play each other. Unfortunately the Red Sox third basemen was injured so I didn’t get to see my favorite player on first. 

        The day before the we went and saw some different places  around Toronto, The first place we went to was the CN Tower the day before the game. When we got there my dad said that were not going to the top. When We got to the top my dad said that he wasn’t going to go on the glass floor. During the day if the dome of Roger’s center was open you could see the whole field. After the the CN tower me and dad went to see if we could find any blue jays jerseys. the first shop we saw had the Blue Jays jerseys for $100. When we saw that we decided to look around a little more. So we went to the Blue Jays store at Roger’s Center to see if the jerseys were cheaper there,they were a lot more expensive. So we decided to go to the store a couple hours before the game and buy the shirts.

         The next day finally came and I was as exited as ever! So we can get the jerseys before the game me and my dad left for the store at around 10:00 am. After we got the jerseys we stayed at the hotel and waited for until we should leave for the game. the first game was a really close game because there was two outs and a runner on third. but unfortunately the batter was swinging for a home run.

         The next day me and my dad basically spent the whole day waiting for the second game to start and were hoping that the jays won, that’s a good thing watching two of your favorite teams play, either way one of your favorite teams wins. That day the game wasn’t that exiting because the jays won by 3 runs and they won in the third inning.

The reason I remixed my post was because the original was really short and it didn’t describe the trip to Toronto very well. This is my original post and compare it to the first one

Happy Birthday, Mrs. Waters’ blog.  On Mrs.Waters’ blog she wrote a post about how Edublogs got started and to celebrate Edublogs’ 1st birthday she is giving away 12 one year sponsorships.  I’m writing a post on how to expand your blog’s audience.

1. Comment on lots of other post.  Commenting will most likely get people that read that post to come to your blog.

2. Make interesting blog posts. The reason you want to make good blog posts is because if your blog posts are interesting then people will tell their friends to read your blog.

3. Link to other people’s blogs.  If you link to other blogs then they will get a ping back and they most likely will visit your blog.

4. Tag your posts.  If you tag your posts then if someone search for that then they would find your blog post.  For example, I tagged my post birthday and if someone searched birthday then they would find my blog post.

5.Put images into your posts.  If you just leave you posts to a chunk of text then no one will read it.

For one class each week Ms. Prager talked to us about the Alert program.

After waking up in the morning do you felt like you can’t stand up because your so tired, after you eat  do you feel like you can’t sit down because your really hyper. If you said yes to any of these scenarios then this blog post is for you (yes you ,in the chair) these are 8 easy steps to getting from high to just right and low to just right.

1. High to just right and low to just right, Try putting your arm straight in front of you and under your desk pulling until you feel just right.
2. High and low to just right,if you have a small toy that doesn’t distract you and play with it under your desk.
3. If you are high, you can do a chair push up by putting your arms and push down with your arms slowly and quietly.
4. From low to just right. If your allowed to eat during class have something that is sour or crunchy like the stick men in my movie.
5. from high to just right. you can eat something that is sweet or sugary (weird I know).
6. if you are low, you can take a scented cotton ball and sniff it.Also there are ones that can calm you down.
7. if you are high or low you can pull up your legs to your chest and pull hard to your chest. The pulling on your chest would be heavy work and the pressure would be deep pressure.
8. Also you can try experimenting with different way of waking up and calming down with lighting and sounds
