And Carbon footprint produce when people's energy release and gave out hot oxygen get together to become a huge hot air. And we always open air conditioner and also that we get really hot under the sun playing basketball didn't clean our self us and went in to the building and it contains heat. Makes it even more way more pollution than a air conditioner did. It actually doesn't really have to do with school this area specifically. It is way more to do with the whole community on the Earth since that Global Warming is getting become a really important issue to the whole world. If we think about it, its just a small thing to do always open the window and the fan if you still feel hot bring some water with ice in it.

What adults can learn from kids

1. What does Adora say about adults listening to young people? She said a point about that "even your an adult, you shouldn't be afraid of making a really ridiculous dream about something as a child". And that sometimes adult might have to have that kind of dream to actually sees the true side of the fact. Also that "Children and adults should learn from each others." 2. What do you think about her argument? I think is a really nice speech. All the ideas that she came up are those ideas that adults will never actually realized what they already lost. Its all from a little 12 years old girl's eyes of this girl. (but she is super intelligent though.) 3. What parts do you agree with? Why? I agree with the parts that she said about that the adult is afraid to dream about little cute things as children does because they thinks that people will think they are childish. In my view, I don't feel any of these. In our age, teenager, is a period of age that from a ...

How is Eve Ensler being a global citizen? What is she doing to make a difference in the world (give examples)? In her own personal life she been treat in violence too, when she was a child, but when she grow up she start to telling and writing lots of books to talk about this and always telling me people not to do it, and help them. 3. Give one example of how girls can end up in harmful situations because of societal pressures "to please" others. Int he video we can see that the girls will want a boy to be their boyfriend, maybe sometimes is because they want to be popular or cause the boy is really rich, something like that, so they will allow those boys to do something they don't want and they know is not right for example like sex. ...

In the few weeks ago, we went on a field trip to the 蛇窯, which is mean a place which they make the china and clay out of mud. It's name is "snake" cause that it got a Dragon before in china and is only for king's plate and things, so they called it snake so it won't be against the king. We went there and there are different kind of kiln. There is alots a big huge one which is seriously called SNAKE is the biggest one in taiwan, it is a only few kiln which actually left didn't been distorted. After we view all the tools and kilns we start to do our own plate or things by clay. They gave us a piece of clay and tell us that keep punch it till it become a ball shape, and however don't make it got the line between each fold cause otherwise when they are burning it, it will explode.

What does the good citizen look like ?

"What does a citizen looks like" this is such a good question. first, we have to make clear what is it meant by a citizen. Citizen are people who belong to a group or a country. For example, I am born in Taiwan, so I am a citizen of Taiwan and native of Taiwan. But their are some different situation too. Like if you want to come Taiwan to be a teacher, the country only gives you the acceptant that you can work here legally. But if you don't have an ARC card, you must leave Taiwan after few weeks, and that will be like you go on a vacation and go back to your country cause the holiday is over. And this process in US is called Naturalization. which is the same thing that I said. So, basically a citizen is a person that legally been allow to be a group or a country. We can say we are citizen of HIS. Cause this is our school and also we belong here for studying. Here are some of my personal thinking of citizenship and citizen. For being a citizen of school, I think there are ...

We have to give these children hope, and make them happy before this period of time. However they are, their skin color or where they live, are they poor or not. It doesn't really matter, they are a people a part of citizen of the Earth, they are same as us we shouldn't treat the...
