No paper school

http://sammamishreview.com/2011/05/17/skyline-high-school-attempts-to-go-a-week-without-using-paper

In the skyline school, they use 50.000 pices of paper each week. if you stack them up, you will have 16.5 feet of pure paper. They spent 22.8 million dollars, in only white sheet of paper in the school year of 2009-2010. They tried to stop the use of paper in a week, and they saved 20.000 pices of paper. I think they had the same idea we have, because we also think that technology helps the students to learn more, and its better to the earth.

What would I change in the school

For me school's form of teaching is very effective, but they have something that if they change, the school would get really better. The schedule is very good, but I think they should give us a little more time between classes. In 5 minutes you can't go to the bathroom, put the books in the locker, take out the other books, and then run to the other class. The 5 minutes would be perfect if all the classes, lockers, and the bathrooms were in the same hall, but we have lockers in 2 different hals, the bathroom is in the other hall, and the classes are all spread around the middle part of the school. A problem that many people (almost all) have, is the time we enter the school. 7:05 is a perfect our to start waking up, not getting to homeroom. That leads us to another thing that I would change, the buses. I am not saying that the buses the  Self are bad, but that the time of the buses are really messed up. My bus is the first one to get to the school, I get to school at 6:40, that gives me 20 minute to be waiting in the cold weather for the teacher to get to homeroom. Personal

School Brain Storming

They need to change the Schedule
The time we had for lunch
Have more to have more out school experiences
We should have the opportunity to have lunch out  or they should bring better food
We should have the opportunity to change our electives and to choose our classes

Evaluating

Oxfordian Theory: proposes that Edward de Vere 17th Earl of Oxford, wrote Williams Shakespeare plays and poems.
Bacon Theory: The bacon theory says that all his poems or plays were written by Lord Chancellor Fransisc Bacon.
Another theory states that his biography was incompatible with his poetry. That means that Shakespeare may havent write.
We discussed and we think the Bacon theory is the best because although it is a theory and it may not be true, the theory that says that his biography is incompatible so it may be true that Another person wrote his poetry such as Bacon.

i can improve my writing, if i show more examples and if i use more adjectives. I think that i also need to use words for big boys know, in other words biger words. with biger words i can exprese my sealf better, and also i improve my vocabulary. Its something that i need to work out, but i am very exited becasue i always wanted to talk english just like i talk spanish, very fluid and knowing lots and lots of words.

libary project

what would it need?
http://www.antigravitytechnology.net/
http://www.gravitycontrol.org/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetism

1. this says that it is possible to invert gravity. They have gravity inventions even anti gravity machines. LIke everything that we cant explain why, it has to have a inverse effect, like soft and hard, like hot and cold, like south pole magnetism and north pole magnetism.
2. Her they say that its possible to have a machine levitate using the anti gravity. They mencion some of the scientist that are working in this today. like for example Nikola Tesla, John Keely, Thomas Townsend Brown and others. the anti gravity or also called gravity control, is a subject that has intriged for centrys all of us, but they say that its time has come.
3. i put this pabecause it talk about magnetism. I think that magnetism is going to make a part of this braclet, because it may have a paper in activating the anti gravity key.

It would work with what matirials?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnets
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti_gravity
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensor

For the braclet, we would need magnets, a sensore, and anti gravity technology. The magnets are to activate the sensore, that starts the anti gravity technology, that dosent let you fall and hit the floor. Because in the streets they have magnetic matirial, the sensore would activated by the magnetic matirial, that would start when its closed to the street or grown. the anti  gravity techonlogy would start when the sensore starts, and it would stop your whole body to hit flat the floor.

Do we have the technology?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensor
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Gravity_Treadmill
http://www.meder.com/reed-sensors-magnets.html

We have the technology with the magnets, we have the technology in the sensores, though  i am not to convinsed if we have the technology to make it happen. we still need to fix something to make it work, however mean while we can make it happen with the magnet and the sensore. The sensor can hold more of the magnets, and when the big magnet starts the sensore, it realises the magnets and make it work.
