Weird Halloween Story, I Think

I woke up with a huge crash, BANG!!! I had fallen out of my bed but I was not in my bedroom anymore, I was in a dark and dreary forest. I looked around to see where and what was around me, a bunch of trees and flowers. There was a bunch of wildlife out in the forest and different kinds of animals. Animals that I have never seen or heard! It was the coolest thing ever! I was thinking, Where am I? What is this place called? Why am I here? I got up and started to walk on this glow in the dark path that led me to this beautiful river and across this river was a giant mushroom. I swear it was literally just a mushroom. It was like 3 feet wide, I mean what type of mushroom is that big? I started crying because I realized that I was gonna die if I didn’t take an axe and start wildly chopping at the mushroom. However, the mushroom was indestructible and it split my axe which then flew and hit me in the face. I currently reside in Limbo because I don’t believe that I made it out of the crash alive. Really bad luck, its just that unicorns are purple and grapes are magical. Life didn’t make sense and there was nothing I could do being lost in this place. I sat on the pieces of chopped up mushroom to think about my past as Sasquatch Researcher. Had that been a bad college choice? I was starting to think so. Then I found Asland and he tried helping me.

Learning about Martha Washington was intersting because I learned things I didn't know about her. For example: Her first marriage wasn't to George Washington, she was a widow before she married him. I had trouble with the work cited page but when I got help it was much easier. I don't mind other people's podcast because I knew that I probably didn't do any better. I wouldn't mind do this is it was about something I like and I was better at reading out loud.

My Digital Footprint

So Far This Term

Since we have started school we have work with Blogger, Weebly, Voki, Toondoo, Diigo, Quizlet, Google Drive, and Keytrain. On most of these online tools we have used to talk about online safety, identity theft, and bullying and how to prevent them. On Weebly we made a place where we could put a portfolio or other information that could help us get into a college or a good job. On Diigo we were able to make online bookmarks so we could find websites easier. Using Quizlet we made note cards with questions and answers. With Google Drive we also made notes and we could access them at any computer that has access to the Internet. With Blogger we may an online blog for our class, and posted a Voki and Toondoo on the blog. We also posted paragraphs about identity theft and cyber bullying. I think the thing that I'll use the most is Diigo to book mark websites that I use often.

Indentity Theft Stories

It was Christmas Season again and Cathy was paying for all of the presents she bought with her credit card. After she was done, she save the copies she needed and throw away the copies she didn’t need, but she forget to shred them. Then on the next garbage day, the garbage truck came to pick up her garbage, and her papers fell out. The garbage man, who did not make a lot of money, picked up the papers and smiled.

Emma pays her taxes and has great credit. One day she went to the bank to get some money for grocery shopping. Then has she taps in her codes a man was looking over her shoulder watching her. After that she grabbed her receipt and throw it away in the trash can by the door. Now the man went and grabbed the receipt, now he had all the information he needed.

 

Michelle Brown Case

In my computer class we showed a video on the Michelle Brown Case, whose identity was stolen. In the movie her identity was stolen by a women named Conney, but her real name is Heddi Larae Ille. Michelle was a successful banker, but Hollywood changed her to a teacher. She and Heddi look nothing alike, but what makes people scared   is when she changes her appearance to look like Michelle, not, really that didn't happen, but it could have. But you know what she did do, Heddi but arrested for smuggling 3,000 pounds of marijuana! So all and all the case of Michelle Brown is scary whether it told by herself or Hollywood.
