Suessical Review

Article posted May 2, 2012 at 03:53 PM GMT • comment • Reads 212

On April 4th at the Conexus Art Center Do it with Class put on the play  ''Suessical'' 


The play had about five of Dr.Suess's stories. They were all thrown together to make this big giant amazing play!


I thought if the play had a couple more jokes it wouldn't make it boring. Because it got really serious when the kid '' died'' I thought at least. The rest of the play was really good though. You could hear the actors and actresses very well. My favorite character was Gertrude! She has an amazing voice. She fit the part very well also. She looked shy when she should. I don't know if it was because she just had stage fright or she just was right on with the gertrude thing. Anyway she did amazing!


The set was good. It wasn't how I thought though. You can't really get what I thought without going in a jungle though! The lights were good I guess. I didn't pay much attention to the lights though. The costumes were great! They kinda fit with the animal yet still looked human. I thought Horton could have had a better outfit though. I couldn't see the makeup from where I was sitting. But it was probably good! The sound was good. It got scratchy sometimes and it hurt people's ears.


The play was interesting and entertaining. You would just forget about the book and be grabbing onto your seat to want to hear the rest of the story. Other parts you'd laugh. It was just fun!


I thought the audience liked it. But I don't think they fell in love. I think they liked it. Some of the older kids may not have. But the younger ones sure did! I thought it was really good. Not great though. Some parts were tacky others were really good though.


Over all the play was MAGICAL!!!

Pink Shirt Day!

Article posted April 2, 2012 at 03:48 PM GMT • comment • Reads 68

Pink sounds like a great colour right? Well on this one guys first day of highschool he wore a pink shirt. Grade 11 kids bullied him. Some grade 12 kids saw this. They wanted to put a stop to it.


What did you learn about Pink Shirt Day that you didn't know before?

I learned that people think wearing pink is weird. And if you wear pink. Your a weirdo. I don't get that because if a girl wore pink it wouldn't matter.



Did you have any connections to anything you read today that you would like to share?


No one has ever bullied me on what I wear. They mostly bullied me on my lip. So I don't really have a good connection.





What do you think needs to be done in schools to stop bullying?

Well, lots of people are trying to stop this. In schools teachers and the principal are willing to sometimes make suspend the bully. Or if it was their first time getting in trouble. Just say sorry and that they won't do it again. But I think sometimes sorry isn't good enough. Because it really probably hurt the person being bullied.






How do you think that you can make a difference?

I can wear I pink shirt... I think. I think anyone if you see someone getting bullied go stand up for them. If it is like fight bullying. Then don't go and punch the guy in the face. Go and talk to him. Chances are he'll stop or you might get hurt. But someone close to you might also stand up and help. But the bully will realize how much people really don't like him. And how if he stopped doing that he could be their friends.


 


So some bullies sometimes don't realize that their bullying and could get in serious trouble. Like the Grade 11 kids. All they thought was '' A boy wearing a top? Weird! '' and they probably didn't mean to start this whole giant pink shirt day. But it doesn't matter what your bullying the person about. Your still bullying and it is still wrong!

5 Facts 5 opinions

Article posted March 26, 2012 at 04:15 PM GMT • comment • Reads 51

Smoking isn't good for you. I think almost everyone knows that. But some people don't choose to follow that. So today and for quite a bit of years now people have been talking about the dangers of smoking and what can happen. Here is a couple of facts and opinions about smoking. 


 1) It makes people turn yellow ( skin,nails and teeth) how gross is that?


 2) Smoking can cause children to have breathing problems when they are born because their parents made a bad desicion to start smoking and now the child ( children ) have a risk of heart or breathing problems or they may also turn to smoking.


3) Smoking can also cause cancer.


4) Smoking is very addicting and bad for you!


5) Smoking can cause sudden death :(


     My opinions on smoking would have to be that it is horrible everyone knows or should know that! Smoking is no in anyway cool! People think it is but it isn't.


1) Smoking is gross


2) Smoking smells very bad!


3) Smoking makes they air really thick


4) People turn to smoking when they are sad or stressed


5) people think smoking is cool.


Smoking is not cool at all. Some people reading this probably will start smoking but you really shouldn't just remember what you were told this year! You might think twice.

The Word..........

Article posted March 1, 2012 at 03:41 PM GMT • comment • Reads 79

I never say the R-word and I don't think I ever will now.  Yes I think that it has changed how I speak and act because it can hurt people and it just isn't nice.  People have to stop saying it. I think if we ban the word no one will say it. It is important. Because lots of people get hurt when people say it. I think my class could be apart of this because some people do say the word and lots get hurt because of it.












 Do you think that this has changed how you will speak/act on a daily basis? Do you think that this is an important movement? Why or why not? What do you think you/our class could do to be a part of this movement in our school?

Animal Testing

Article posted February 9, 2012 at 03:35 PM GMT • comment • Reads 78

 Okay animal testing is not fair. I think the tester people should STOP! But in a good way it can save people but it can kill animals. So what I think is that people should only test on animals for something we NEED not like makeup or that stuff like medicine and whatever.

WILDLIFE!!!!

Article posted January 25, 2012 at 03:53 PM GMT • comment • Reads 76

Which channel did you think was the most interesting?

The penguins because they were the most movement there and they kinda were more fun to watch and cute. They did some funny stuff like climb put the wall and like fall down it. Then some kid came up in the tube ad started jumping. It was HILARIOUS!!!

Did you see anything that was interesting or surprising?

The kid and them sliding off the little thing to climb up what ever thing. It was very funny!!


Why do you think they have chosen to document nature in this way?

Well because it probably has more interest for kids and stuff.
But if it were like a book I probably would not really wanna be doing this but like with the video I do. Because they are cuter and stuff.



What benefits do you think this type of observation gives?

More viewers because it is more entertaining. And probably for like science people it is nice because they can see them 24/7 and it helps them learn more about the animals.

What do you think they are trying to learn more about?

What the animals do during the days. They are probably trying to see what they eat, how the communicate and all that stuff.

If you could set up a live feed anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?
PERU=http://! I would put it probably on in like a desert and see how iguanas live and what they eat. I would also like to see how would they survive and stuff. Maybe we could get a few camels or anything else.

My favorite video was ALL OF THEM=http://=http://=http://!!! I liked them all because they are FUN STUFF=http://!! 


Yes they are working because I saw them working in the video. That is how I know they work.


My idea is WASHABLE CARS


Once the car gets dirty turn on the window wipers and car washer button. the car washer button will release GIANT window wipers to wash the WHOLE CAR=http://!!!!

The waterdrop video I thought was kinda boring (sorry) but I think a dance video or a torando or even maybe a comic strip would be col ideas! I think 5 adjectives would be droppy - watery 2000 frames- little boring - green - VIDEO ON YOUTUBE


 


 


 


That is what I think
