Favorite thing about American Studies
I like how the two classes are intertwined and conncet to eachother, so you are learning about the same thing in each subject. Also, I feel that it is a good experience to be in a class with lots of people so that I am prepared for what a college class will be like.
What are you?
Student
What are you reading for fun?
Over the summer I read Looking for Alaska. Now I am currently reading The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold about a girl who was murdered and has to watch over her family from heaven.

BP Oil Spill: DO SOMETHING!

It is estimated that more than 2 million gallons of oil have already leaked into the Gulf of Mexico and about 200,000 gallons are leaking daily. This oil leak could become the nation's worst environmental disasters, it is even worse than the previous Exxon Valdez oil leak (which is the worst oil leak in history). It threatens hundreds of species of fish, birds, marine life and all other wildlife near… Continue

Music In a Nutshell

Music plays a HUGE roles in our lives. We hear it everywhere... on t.v., the radio, blaring through kids' ipods in the hallways, but music is much more than just sound. Music represents a person's culture; through music we are aloud to represent ourselves. America is believed to be a melting pot of cultural music. We have so much diversity because different ethnic groups immigrated to America presenting tons of new genres. There is pop, jazz, rock, altenative, indie, rap, and tons more! It's… Continue

Kim -- Those Nixon-related photos are a great addition here. We will definitely see that helicopter later in the year!

So, this photo album counts as a culture project, and--if I'm counting correctly--you have five out of ten ning contributions done.

Thanks.

Kim --

Thanks for joining up here.

On Monday I'll pass out the ning assignment for first quarter requiring ten thoughtful posts. Your comment on the semester grade chart forum is a perfect example of a thoughtful post.

"There are many options out there, but to standardize is to tell a lot of teachers to learn something new or unfamiliar... it's a tricky subject.  That's why I'd love to start my own school, powered by Edmodo, Ning, etc :)"

"I'm overloaded with social networking for school. They should make something exclusively for high school. Million dollar idea right there. Consolidate and simplify. "

9/11 Skylines and Turnstiles

I'm not usually someone who writes a lot , not publicly anyway but I do love to express my self through art, usually visual art but most of the time the art I make is influenced by something . In this case it's a song a written by one of my favorite musicians as a response to the feeling of horror and disbelief as he watched the Twin Towers in New York go from icons to ruins on 9/11/01. The song is sad,…See More
