Academic Language Week 8 - Ten Commandments

I think the Ten Commandments don't belong in school. Its not a teachers role to teach religion in school. Teachers shouldn't try to CONSUME students learning about different religion. Religion and school are two different categories, religion is learn outside of school in church and school is  about learning things.  If people wanted to learn about religion in school they would go to a Christian school, thats why they have public schools.

Internet Safety Project - Public or Private Profile

I think teenagers should put there profiles to private. They should have them private because there is people out there that are very dangerous and can harm people. By not having your profile private other people you don't know might be going threw your pictures and your messages. Also when your texting people you don't know that has a profile with a hot girl, you might think that they are a girl but can actually be a old perv. Just have your profile in private don't take the risk of being in danger for your best.

Dragons Den 7: Would You Rather?

I would rather be smart because I can do more things in life and have a better job. People would recognize me for my intelligence. I would want to be smart so I can have a big house, lots of cars, and money. Smarter is better than pretty because if your smart and have money you can just get plastic surgery and then you'll be smart and pretty. And sometime people prefer smart people then pretty.

Academic Language Week 7 - Vampires

I think vampire’s popularity will fade away. They will fade away because they are getting old and there are new horror movies and creatures coming out later on in the future. Also, there are too many movies already about vampires and all of them have the same PLOT in them. Sooner or later they won’t have key factors that other popular books or movies have. Vampire’s voices will be eliminated when other popular subjects come about. Vampires are just getting old because in every movie it’s about the same thing people getting bit, girl falls in love with a vampire, or vampires vs. wolfs. I think its time for us to let Vampire’s retire.
