Life Ed Summary

TASK:
Write a full summary of Life Ed: From the Shadows.
This should be at least ¾ of a page. 
Use subheadings.

Remember to include some of Michael’s awesome stories about actual people affected by drugs.

Drugs through puberty:
Teenagers have a high risk of taking drugs in teen hood but more risky if they take it going through puberty because you are climbing the 7 rungs of the ladder. The 7 rungs of the ladder means the seven years through puberty the bottom meaning childhood and the top meaning adulthood. When you take drugs then it will effect your body and will change your short term memory and your future thinking which will change the way you look or do in the future.

Drugs:
There are different types of drugs that we learnt in Life Ed but most of the drugs we learnt of were illegal drugs. Illegal drugs are placed into classes Class C being dangerous but not as dangerous. Class B being 2nd dangerous class and Class A being the most dangerous and effective class. Class A is very dangerous, thats why the police fines you a lot of money and/or a lot of time in prison to keep you safe. Most of Michael's stories he told us, most of the people were 13 and started having marijuana and then from that drug they went onto many other drugs.

Alcohol:
There are the three most likely drinks of alcohol that they sell everywhere. Beer, Wine and Spirits. Beer has the least amount of alcohol in it, Wine has the average amount of alcohol in it and Spirit has a lot of alcohol in it thats why at bars they put it in small glasses. There is a certain amount that Spirits, Wine and Beer should be poured into the glass to remove the alcohol from your body. Spirits should be poured into small glasses. Wine should be able to fit 3/4 of a wine glass and Beer should be able to fit the top of a tall glass. If you pour it to the right amount, the alcohol should disappear from your body less than 1 hour.

Acronyms:

What effects the brain.

C oncentration
E motions

Multiplication using lines

To make this work you have to draw the lines so my equation is 21x42. What I do is I draw 2 lines then leave a space then I draw 1 line. That makes 21. Then I draw 4 lines going the other direction then leave a space and then draw 2 lines. Now we draw curved lines to separate the numbers. Now lets count the first dots. I counted 8 dots then the middle ones, I counted 8 dots and the last ones I counted 2 dots. Put it together and you get 21x42=882√

Hope you learnt a new trick!

Advertiesment

Do you think you are the smartest thing in the world?
Can you see into the future?
Can you read minds?
I guess not. But an amazing website can!
It is called Akinator!
Akin what what? Akinator!
It reads your lungs, I mean brain and it hooks it into the computer to see what character you are thinking about.

How does it work?
Well it asks lots of questions about what is the character's gender is and what are the character's personalities and all sorts. Where do I go? On the internet! (pause) I mean, go now on en.akinator.com thats en.a k i n a t o r.com you will regret it if you don't get it! Go now!

Caution it only works if
 you are thinking about a character
 in a digital movie
 and it only guesses indie movies or english movies.
 Batteries not included.\

Here is the Sound cloud!

Punctuating missing 3

"Mum where are my favourite socks?" I asked yelling for help.
"And where are my Tuesday undies?" asked Dad searching through his drawers.
"You know I have to wear them today just wear mondays undies, no one is going to know," replied Mum.
"No ones going to know you say I'm going to know and to wear mondays undies pfft that would be idiotic!" dad answered back with a streak in his voice.

This was only the beginning of our family disaster. For the next few weeks things were starting to disappear and fast! With dad losing his tuesday undies and me losing my favourite socks, Isaac then lost his favourite bow tie, while mum then lost her favorite dress.
"We thought we were going mental its not like they could just hop up and run away!" said Isaac.
Mum suggested that we recap our steps
"When was the last time you had your items," she said.
We all replied.
"Before washing day was the last time we had them so maybe its the washing machine that's caused all this drama," Mum said with a glimpse a hope in her eyes. We checked the washing machine there was… nothing with nothing to prove. I decided to put a Go-Pro in the machine to watch it in action to see if there was something suspicious really happening inside, what I didn’t realise was that the washing machine would take my Go-Pro too
"AHHH ITS GONE!" I yelled at the top of my voice. "What are we going to do?"
"Lets just give up!" Mum said to me.
"Fine if that’s the best idea," I moaned.

A few weeks later Isaac had dropped his toy car behind the washing machine and as we were looking for it, a pair of undies popped up out of the blue just sitting there.
"Mum, look," I said with a big grin on my face.
"Who would have guessed!"
We both stood there smiling.

Punctuating a story #2

"Morning class," greeted Miss Green.
It was an ordinary day and everyone was sitting at their wooden desks with pens and pencils. By their side, the sweet sound of voices filling the room, brought music to my ears. I decide to listen in on Brittney's conversation with Ella.
"OMG, last night I reached into my bag to get out my book and it wasn’t there!" explained Brittney.
"No way," replied Ella, "That exact thing happened to me, I was sure I put it into my bag."
This is a little strange I thought to myself why were things disappearing.

Eventually the bell went and it was time to go home. I told my mum what I had witnessed at school, and she was lost for words that night I couldn't get Brittney and Ella's conversation out of my head. I grabbed my laptop out of my bag to google this mystery as I unzipped the case I looked down only to see that there was no laptop in my bag, this is insane I decided to look in my other pocket of my bag and to my surprise my lunch box was also missing.

The sun was shining, birds singing, it seemed like an ordinary day. I walked into my class that is usually full of colour but, not today. My class looked like a prison cell.
"What happened!" I gasped.
"Don't worry kids," assured Miss Green, "We have a thief in our class and I am going to get to the bottom of this one by one!"
Miss green started checking our bags. Everyone seemed relaxed except for James. Miss green made her way down the line and James was last to be checked.
"Oh," said Miss Green, looking rather lost.
"What is this?" she asked James, as she pulled out two books, a pencil case, my laptop and two class posters from James's bag.

I was utterly shocked to say the least.
"I am so sorry," cried James. "Its just that everyone has laptops or books and our class is so colourful, that I wanted to take some of it home to make my house look better.
"The truth is that you should be happy with what you have and not want stuff from other people."

Punctuating a story

It was a Monday morning. I just got woken up by my mum to get ready for school. I got out of bed and reached down for my uniform but, it wasn't there. I looked under my bed, under my pillows but I couldn't find my uniform anywhere.
"Kaidin have you gotten in the shower yet?"
"No mum I cant find my uniform."
"Well you better find it quick or, you will be going to school in your onesie!"
"But mum I cant find it anywhere it’s like its just disappeared."
"Oh sure just like all your other stuff huh Kaidin?"
"I got a note to go to school with to say that my uniform is lost and that I have to wear mufti just for today." Which was a pain because every teacher I walked past asked why I'm in mufti and where my uniform is so, I just showed them the note and moved on.

When I got home I went to go grab my iPod from where I always put it but I looked and that wasn't there either! I yelled out to my mum
"Mum have you seen my iPod?"
"No but do you know where did you last put it?"
"Mum if i knew where i last put it do you think id be asking you where it is?"
"Sorry just trying to help." I thought to myself that ill try to find it later, so I run into my room to go on my PS3 but, surprise surprise it’s not there.
"Mum!"
"Oh what now Kaidin?"
"I know you're up to mischief tell me where all my stuff is!"
"Kaidin, do you really think I would hide your uniform away from you, so you would go to school in your onesise? Now what’s gone missing now?"
"My PS3 the whole thing, the controller is here but not my HDMI cable, power cord or my Elgato!"

PEEL Paragraphs #2

Task:
Write a PEEL paragraph responding to this statement

Rimu is the best syndicate at TIS.

You must:

Decide on your umbrella Point
Give at least 3 Explain reasons, each with an specific Example
Finish with a Linking sentence back to your P statement.
Use sequencing words for your reasons

Rimu is the best syndicate at TIS because they work as a team. Firstly, they cheer the team on and they celebrate when a teammate does a good job. However when a teammate fails they say "Nice try," and get them back to their feet. Secondly, they shout their chant together to spread their success and to grab students into their house. They do this by, walking into other houses or they stand in assembly and they shout their voices out. Thirdly, they work academically together to reach the success criteria. They do this by, sharing ideas and discussing whether it is right or wrong and going through the instructions so they would understand together. Also when someones lost in their work they work with the student to get them on track. Therefore that is why Rimu is the best syndicate in TIS.
