(kony theme)

Have you ever thought about how much knowledge is denied to students because of teachers who don't use technology.
Insert fact here
So much creativity is being suppressed when technology opens up so many options to make top quality projects.
Think about prezi, capzles, i movie.
It permits students to not see answers by just one perspective or point of view.
They can keep all of their work together and much more organized with blogs.
It is a financial burden however big companies love when schools starts to incorporate technology.  They wouldn't mind sponsoring.
Students should be able to demonstrate they understand in anyway they want
Students are getting teacher blocked
Insert video here
Big companies like Apple have educational programs in which they sell computers at a very cheap price.
Students in each classroom should have a technology tool preferable a laptop that way they can expand knowledge in unlimited ways. They can keep their notes together and organized.  This helps students give off their creative potential.
We should this happen so the students can give off their full potential and unleash their creativity.  


Portfolio Parts for Every Subject


Science:
Science or physical science is one of the best taught classes I have, I enjoy having Mr. Nech as a teacher and doing lots og projects and researching about interesting things related to science. Even though we take lots of notes, we can easily understand everything that we are taught thanks to our teacher, Mr Nech, he is very good at teaching. We have studied from atoms to matter and from energy to motion. One of the things I liked was learning about the periodic table and doing a project based on it. We had to choose three elements and do cards about them. I really enjoy science.


English:

This class is by far the class in which we do the most work, and homework, even though it is very easy to succeed. Ms. Shawn will guide you through the process using her blooms method of taxonomy. Ms. Shawn uses a blog system in which we post our work in it. Some of the fun projects we have done involve working in groups and being successful through a process of learning, knowing, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, and creating. We usually do big projects in partners, but we also do individual novel projects with the novel we read (however our novel project last quarter was in partners. I am always happy to have English with Ms. Shawn!

Social Studies:

This year in social studies we have been reviewing a lot about all the important ancient civilizations throughout our history. Our teacher Mr. Deighton is pretty good at teaching and you always remember what he says because he also makes you draw it and discuss with partners (usually). I really enjoyed learning about Ancient Greece and my project with Gregory and Mateo was really fun. This class gives students a lot knowledge teaching about the past, so we can predict what’s coming next and learn from other people’s mistakes.



Elective:
This quarter I have health and PE as electives since I believe the health program has a flaw, I’m going to talk about PE with Andres Silva instead. P.E. With Andres Silva; at the start of the year I wasn’t very good at sports but throughout the year I have been taking it more seriously as each quarter passes, I want to be more fit, therefore I practiced a lot and got a 4 in la the latest quiz. To me, P.E is fun now.

Sociales:

Sociales class with Lala is a subject that I don’t necessarily enjoy as much, but that I love going to. I don’t find history very interesting, I prefer classes like science  or social studies. But, all the projects and works are very fun to do.
In this class we have to build up knowledge about the history of South America and Colombia. We have to learn all the geographical facts and the past history. Our teacher assigns lots of big group projects that involve videos. A project I have enjoyed doing is the study of Colombian economy and statistics. We learned a lot about our country and the economy. Its great!





Math:
The main part of math is doing assignments of solving equations and completing worksheets to practice our basic skills, we get projects assigned once in a while. The project I enjoyed the most was the most recent one our probability project. Even though it was long it required a lot of work and thinking but it was fun. I like math!


Personal:

who am I? My name is Pedro Juan Mesa, I Am a Colombian 14 year old teen. I like doing many things such as hunting, fishing, reading, playing video games, even writing short stories on my free time. I love sports mostly watching them. I also love to hard work, and to watch movies. When I grow up I want to attend a good university and hopefully work as a Successful stock broker


Español:

In Spanish class, which I find it very easy due to the fact that this is my first language, we learn and have lots of fun with our teacher, Sonia. The class can get pretty wild sometimes but recently I’ve been trying to avoid punishment. Even though we have only read one book (reading the second one), we practice a lot spelling and types of sentences. I enjoy doing projects in this class, especially the ones that involve doing movies. Almost all the projects and assessments involve doing movies and newscasts. It is very entertaining, and I like my class.


Comments on Portafolio by Jack Ackerman
Pedro, Great Job on your Portfolio, I like the name. You are missing books read and edited work on the english section put the  in your Webtafolio.

Questions of School Idea

How are we going to train the teachers to use technology in the curriculum?  We will bring experts from big companies like Microsoft and Apple.  Mostly we will hire younger teachers that will possibly find working with technology much easier.
How are we going to overcome the financial part?  Those big companies that come in and help us will also sponsor us.  They will provide us with the technology like computers.  In Exchange we will sponsor the products to our students.
How are we going to make sure students dot just play?  We will set up a security web that will block unappropiate pages like miniclip, addictinggames, etc.  Only pages that actually help learning.


Citing Sources of Images
Siting sources of images (projects)
Images also have to be sited from where you got it from.
There are 3 things to have in them:
1.Person or company who originally owned it
2.Link to image
3. Kind of copyright.

Rough Draft PSA Essay:

PSA Essay on Sweatshops



A Sweatshop is a factory that breaks two or more labor laws. These factories pay workers an average of two cents per hour forcing them to work for food. Even though Sweatshops are common in developing countries there are also many sweatshops in developed countries, (however they are rarer). In United States 50 % of the clothing comes from sweatshops.


Since the poverty levels are so high people of forced to move into the cities to find work, with the work they can earn money to live. However since the owners of the factories know that these people don’t have a choice they break the rules of labor and pay them less than minimum wages.  Worldwide more than 250 million children work in sweatshops. 61 % of the sweatshops in the world are in China. Most of them are girls between the ages of 15 and 20 years old. The kids are abused and tortured if they complain. They are hidden when inspectors or costumers enter the factory.

Some companies like Nike take advantage that 36% of the population of china lives on less than 2 dollars a day. In many sweatshops they force there workers to meet a quota of 1,000 products a day. Since many of the workers don’t complete the quota they are forced to work extra hours. The factories are paying the workers one fourth of what a person needs for basic living (food and water) less than an 6th of the minimum wage.  Less than 1% of the money earned of the actual product goes to the person that made it.

Sweatshop workers are frightened and silent. They don’t speak or rebel because they are afraid that if they do they will lose their jobs; therefore not being able to maintain their families. If they rebel they will be beaten and fired. If Companies just spend more money on the workers instead of saving all the money this people will go out of misery and have better lives.

What we all want is for the owners of the factories to respect the labor laws and at least pay the workers minimum salary. We will ask the government of china for a full campaign support and organize protests on the streets if they deny. If all of us work together and go against these factories by avoiding mass productions products and making constant protest against this, possibly uniting with UNISEF to stop the abuse in sweatshops forever and change the name of Sweatshop to Factory.

Commnents


Pedro,


You did a nice job on your PSA editorial. I like how you show tons of facts about sweatshops, and how they are discriminated everyday. You can learn a lot by reading this, which is amazing. I would recommend you to make it a little longer, and give it more 'feeling', so the audience is a little more persuaded about doing something than just being filled up with information. Besides this, good job!


Alejandro Samper


Great job pedro! you gave me sufficient details and facts about sweatshops in order to convince me that they are a bad thing. Most of the facts were very eye opening, since you would have never thought that some big companies like Nike will do such atrocities. If there is something that you should change, it would be to use some different adjectives that will enhance your reader's feelings. Nevertheless, good job.

PSA Essay on Sweatshops

Sweatshops are factories that break two or more labor laws. These factories pay workers an average of two cents per hour forcing them to work for scarce amounts food. Even though Sweatshops are common in developing countries there are also many sweatshops in developed countries, (however they are rarer). In United States 50 % of the clothing comes from sweatshops.
Since the poverty levels are so high people are bear downed into move into the cities to find work, with their work they can earn money to live in the most miserable conditions. This is because the owners of the factories know that these people don’t have a choice, so, they break the rules of labor and pay them less than minimum wages.  Worldwide more than 250 million children work in sweatshops. 61 % of the sweatshops in the world are in China. Most of them are girls between the ages of 15 and 20 years old. In some sweatshops The kids are abused and tortured if they complain. They are hidden when inspectors or costumers enter the factory.

The factories are paying the workers one fourth of what a person needs for basic living (food and water) less than an 6th of the minimum wage.  Less than 1% of the money earned of the actual product goes to the person that made it. These people live miserably and their life quality should be improved.
Sweatshop workers are frightened and silent. They don’t speak or go against society because they are afraid that if they do they will lose their jobs; therefore not being able to maintain their families. Another thing is, If they rebel they will be beaten. If Companies just spend more money on the workers instead of saving all the money this people will go out of misery and have better lives.
What we all want is for the owners of the factories to respect the labor laws and at least pay the workers minimum salary.

Watermelons, Seeds Paragraph Outlines
These paragraphs are like seeds in a watermelon because they take a huge idea and pick a small story about the subject.
Sociales/philosophy
My favorite part of Sociales are the debates.  Throughout the year I have missed many debates in the class because I was in MUN because lala usually does the debates while people are in MUN. I have had some debates one about Drug Legalization that I did very well in and learned about every subject. I improved my debate skills even though I had a minor candidate. It was very fun and we had a good time.

English
This year English class we have many projects. My favorite project this year has been the Hunger Games reading project. This project was a video and we had a lot of fun + we learned and reviewed a lot about the book.. We also practiced our editing skills and we edited the project really well adding slow motion and cool effects. One of the best projects I’ve ever had. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKuUVK1jYgo

Social Studies
In Social Studies we have done a lot of creative, interesting projects throughout the year. My favorite project was my ancient Greece trailer, why? 1. I had a lot of fun and my video with Gregory and Mateo was hilarious. 2. It was very well edited and even had some epic music to go with our 300 epic parody. At first we were sort of ashamed to show it, but as we showed it people laughed a lot.

Math
In math we usually work in class, have homework, and then take a quiz. However we had a project once this was when we of a important person in math history.  I liked it because we learn about the many contributions different mathematicians have made to math and i was a more dynamic project were we used prezi. Our prezi was really creative and great I Did it with Lorenzo Sanchez. Pretty good job.

Science
My favorite work in science would have to be when we designed our own ecological car.  I liked it because it was really interesting to see how much of an impact on the environment.  Also to see how hard they are to make and how expensive they really are.  We made a very cool classic car that was worth 2 million dollars.  It was good for the enviorment and it even had a small power plant inside it.

Spanish
My favorite work in Spanish was the documentary because we could consider it the only project we have done! It was integrated with technology so we actually learned some cool things about Adobe editing programs.  It was a very dynamic and interesting project. There was one thing that I didn’t enjoy that was the fact that we didn’t present it.

School Questions
What Needs does our change made in school Address?
The Advantages technology might offer to students?
This opens millions of new possibilities.
Why would students, teachers, parents, and administrators?
Students: Love using technology.
Teachers: Makes their life easier and open horizons to new projects and homeworks.
Parents: They’d like to see their students develop in many ways.
Administrators: It opens many possibilities.



Portafolio Categories and Building Them
























Webatafolio: http://webtafolio.weebly.com/


Schools Eliminate Divertive Thinking Thus 
Reducing the amount of Possible Geniuses 
(Mix of New School+What was learned in viewing the video)


Issue: Schools are making students believe there is only 1 answer however in reality there are many
answers to problems in life and there is no such think as "best possible answer" in life we can
always make something better.


Theoretical Change: Focus on Collaboration. The school shall not be divided by ages, it shall be divided by passions, hobbies,
and what people want to be. Students would not have exact hours to attend school, Students
shall only complete x ammount of work per week. The School would encourage students from an early age to use technology aproprietly and be strict about the subject. The school would do it in a way where if the student is not using the technology aproprietly he would fail for not paying attention in class (a talk with the parents shall set the student straight without eliminating creativity but using it approprietly. Students would realize they have to use technology approprietly to be successful. There would not be any grades, Students
would have to complete all the requirements for their passion with a certain amount of quality.


Collaboration is key to learning, students should be encouraged to work together to reach a
common goal.



Obstacles You might encounter
·        1. Extreme Religion Fanatics that insist that technology is bad.
·         2.Teachers that don’t trust their students.
·         3,Convincing people that this is possible.
·         4.Haters, people that hate the idea.
How to overcome these issues….
·       1. Being Persistant
·      2.   Believing in Yourself
·      3.   Having People who work with you to back you up.
·       4. Use Pathos, Logos and Ethos.



Article Summary
http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2005/sep/13/schools.news1

This article talks about why teachers are so nervous about students using technology in class.  According to a study 30% of teachers said they failed to use technology correctly in class. Why? Because it might lead to gaming   Teachers don’t like computers because it may interfere with book-based learning which is bad to some teachers.  Some experts say that it would help the classroom learning environment to incorporate technology.  70% of teachers that were able to achieve good use of technology in class said that it improved the learning and their role as a teacher.  Some studies also reveal that 76% of students play games at least once a week, and so when using technology in class, they would think it’s a game and not take it seriously.  The internet in some way would cause children a distraction and interfere their learning in that subject.




(link to page that talks about issue http://dougwoods.co.uk/blog/education-technology-teaching-tool-or-learning-tool/ this page talks about how technology should actually be embraced by teachers and that it helps techers become great teachers.

our big issue in schools is the denial of technology by some teachers who feel it is not a useful teaching tool)

Rough Draft by Gregory>
Rough Draft 

The interface rings will have all sorts of technology in it.  Each one helps the other.  It will have a gps system which could locate you all over to world through our satelites.  It will also have a portable holographic screen, like an ipad, however this one will pop out of the ring.  Th ring will have a sort of rock like where they diamonmds go and you press that to release the holographic screen.  Then from the screen you can control the rest of the ring to do things like gps or the siri we a re putting in it.  You could also surf the web play games and even multiplayer games since the ring has Bluetooth to connect it with the house, also allowing you to control the house. 

The estimated price of the ring will be of 3 thousand dollars but it is a strong ring.  All of the technology is protected by the outside cover which is made of a non rusting metal.  It can be personalized.  It is waterproof and can suffer a good fall.  The advantages of the ring are a lot.  When lost you will always have the gps and it controls your house making life much easier.  the ring uses magnetic levitation to make the screens pop out and pop in but also to make sure the levitate there and don’t keep on flying.  There is also praticly a whole other universe in the ring once you get into it. 

 Final Draft


Final Draft

Looks
The technology inside the ring is covered by 5 layers of 18 carat gold. Below each projector there is a sapphire. If the ring is closed it is waterproof, however if it is open a drop of water could damage it severely. (same as any technology device) except you get the advantage that it is fully waterproof when it is closed.

Technology

Each interface ring will have all sorts of technology in it.  Each one helps the other.  It will have a GPS system which could locate you all over to world through our satellites.  It will also have a portable holographic screen, like an iPad, however this one will pop out of the ring.  The ring will have a sort of rock like where the sapphire will go and you press that to release the holographic screen. The holographic screen projectors are below this rock. Then from the screen you can control the rest of the ring to do things like GPS or anything that you can usually do in your computer, this is because it is a display of what your home (computer) does. . You could also surf the web play games and even multiplayer games since the ring has satellite connection to connect it with the house, also allowing you to control the house. 

Price
The estimated price of the ring will be of 3 thousand dollars but it is a strong ring.  All of the technology is protected by the outside cover which is made of a non rusting metal.  It can be personalized.  It is shockproof and can suffer a good fall.  The advantages of the ring are a lot.  When lost you will always have the gps and it controls your house making life much easier. The ring uses magnetic levitation to make the screens pop out and pop in but also to make sure the levitate there and don’t keep on flying.  The ring will be 3 thousand dollars, however the price of the computer/house that controls everything about the ring is not available on the moment. POA. 

Rough Draft and Final Draft (Facts)

Rough draft facts Gregory Goldemberg
Rough Draft
The ring will use magnetic levitation to put the projectors in the air. That will make sure the ring is in the right spot and the screen doesn’t keep on flying forever. (university of south california. (n.d.). institute of creative technologies. Retrieved March 25, 2012, from http:/
http://gl.ict.usc.edu/Research/3DDisplay/) the rings will also have holographic screens which will allow it to work as a wireless ipad, where you could have multiple functions (http://sbir.nasa.gov/SBIR/successes/ss/7-043text.html) it will have nano technology that way making the most technology posible in this small ring. (What is Nanotechnology?. (n.d.).Nanotechnology Research. Retrieved March 25, 2012, fromhttp:www.crnano.org/whatis.htm) this rings will include a gps system which will be tracking you everywhere around the world. It can also show you your location.

The ring will have 4 projectors (bottom, top, side and side)we know this because we just now that we need one in every side so that the “beam” of light does not go on forever.

Class Discussion Input and Effect
In class we discussed all types of things about th ring which basicly make it what it is now.
Without the class discussion we would not have: 4 projectors, magnetic levitation, and satellite conection.

Wiki:


Article 1 ''Star Wars in the Rocket City: Inside the science of Episode I with light sabers and levitating vehicles''
Lightsaber
The article talks about lightsabers being almsot impossible with todays technology as a laser would go on forever and a lightsaber would stop abrubtly. DeYoung and expert in lights and lazers says it could have a mirror at the end so it would stop; however, since the lightsaber sounds almost like a hard object when hit against tangible objects around it it could not be light. As light would pass through light because light is not matter.
Hovering/Floating Vehicles 
the other section of the article talks about the magnetic hovering vehicles and that some vehicles under special circumstances in todays technology can achieve that; however,  "If you can distort the geometry of space, you can create antigravity," thus  ''But the possibility of vehicles that float a few feet off the ground on any terrain, with no track, seems unlikely.''.

Article 2
Light speed tavel: 
What the second article states is that: “If Einstein’s Theory of Relativity remains correct, and we have been testing it for nearly a century now, traveling at light speed is impossible for any object possessing mass'' This is because at such speed the mass in our body would change; “At 10 percent of the speed of light an object’s mass is only 0.5 percent more than normal, while at 90 percent of the speed of light [the object] would be more than twice its normal mass,” Dove says. “It can, in fact, never reach the speed of light, because by then its mass would have become infinite.”
Cybernetic body parts
Cybernetic body parts such as arms or legs are not science fiction, with the technology we currently have there are Arms, Legs and other artifical body parts that react to brain signals.

Science V.S. Science Fiction
At the time in star wars many of the things invented were science fiction, however as the years passed by many of these things were invented.
Science back then
Beginning of droids, objects in space, spatulas, coffee makers
Science Now
Spaceships, flying droids, lazers, lazer shooters, hoverboards
Science Fiction back then
hoverboards, spaceships, droids, lazers

What Did we learn from...
-On posters around the room labeled with each type of figurative language, students glue/tape their examples on the appropriate poster. Then, students get a pen/pencil and go around to posters twice. 1st round- tell the “feeling” they got from each example. The 2ndround-choose top three examples (have class decide the criteria before this round) with a star, and bottom three examples with a circle.


In this activity we learned to know the difference between good examples in which people thought about it,
and song or movie examples in which people did to be mediocre. 
The good examples earned a star and gave an interesting ''feeling'' to the reader. The bad examples earned a circle and were mostly uninteresting and boring.

Cool Poem-Life is Short by: Crystal Lynn Milliken, USA


A Million Ways to Die
Why do we all try?
In the end we'll all die
The same outcome for all
The tall and the small
For the people who think they are worthless
And for the rich people who have no sense
To see their lives will end too
And there's nothing they can do
You can't buy your way out of death
One of life’s hardest test
Some people's lives end fast
Like in a shooting or a crash
Their lives are over in a flash
Their friends all mourn
Their family is torn
There's a missing link at school
People realize you were cool
And regret not talking to you
Other people kill themselves
Think they're living in hell
Their bodies go cold
While their mothers cry and hold
Their daughters’ lifeless body
Some people die in bed
While peacefully resting their head
Others have a deadly disease
And die once they sneeze
Or their blood could clot
And their heart will stop
There's a million ways you could go
You could die from frostbite in the snow
I can't tell how you'll die
But I can tell you this
Life is so short, live it to its fullest.



I like this poem because it's sad at the beginning but then it shocks you and It gives you the message to live life to its fullest. It's Inspiring

PSA Essay on Sweatshops


A Sweatshop is a factory that breaks two or more labor laws. These factories pay workers an average of two cents per hour forcing them to work for food. Even though Sweatshops are common in developing countries there are also many sweatshops in developed countries, (however they are rarer). In United States 50 % of the clothing comes from sweatshops.

Since the poverty levels are so high people of forced to move into the cities to find work, with the work they can earn money to live. However since the owners of the factories know that these people don’t have a choice they break the rules of labor and pay them less than minimum wages.  Worldwide more than 250 million children work in sweatshops. 61 % of the sweatshops in the world are in China. Most of them are girls between the ages of 15 and 20 years old. The kids are abused and tortured if they complain. They are hidden when inspectors or costumers enter the factory.

Some companies like Nike take advantage that 36% of the population of china lives on less than 2 dollars a day. In many sweatshops they force there workers to meet a quota of 1,000 products a day. Since many of the workers don’t complete the quota they are forced to work extra hours. The factories are paying the workers one fourth of what a person needs for basic living (food and water) less than an 6th of the minimum wage.  Less than 1% of the money earned of the actual product goes to the person that made it.

Sweatshop workers are frightened and silent. They don’t speak or rebel because they are afraid that if they do they will lose their jobs; therefore not being able to maintain their families. If they rebel they will be beaten and fired. If Companies just spend more money on the workers instead of saving all the money this people will go out of misery and have better lives.

What we all want is for the owners of the factories to respect the labor laws and at least pay the workers minimum salary. We will ask the government of china for a full campaign support and organize protests on the streets if they deny. If all of us work together and go against these factories by avoiding mass productions products and making constant protest against this, possibly uniting with UNISEF to stop the abuse in sweatshops forever and change the name of Sweatshop to Factory.

Positive Influence on Children TV Ad
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHCuA0KnITY


The ad is strong but soon we realize what it is
it has no voice and it needs no voice, juts by showing pictures and moments when kids do the same things that adults do we can truly see the intentions of the campaign.
It has pathos and logos-makes sense and causes emotions.
Wild Horses why was it persuasive?
The voice was good and it gave a feeling that it was a person with knowledge talking about the subject- adding to ethos. 
It showed solid facts that help us believe in the subject-logos
It showed pictures of suffering animals which should make most people be sad and feel empathy-pathos
it encouraged the viewer to help and gave phones and address's.


What is Style?
Writing style is the way in which an author chooses to write to his or her audience. A style reveals both the writer's personality and voice, but it also shows how the author perceives the audience, and chooses a conceptual writing style which reveals those choices.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tCtM8UEQv8
They use pathos and logos: Pathos because it makes you feel sad when the mouse ''dies'' then it makes you happy and laugh when he actually starts using the trap to make exercise; Plot twist.
It has no voice but it needs no voice. It kind of allows you to use foreshadowing as you are constantly wondering what is going to happen to the mouse.
Logos: It uses logos because at the end you see why the mouse was so strong, it was because of the cheese... Giving you a message of this is strong cheese or this cheese will make you strong.


What is persuassion


Something persuasive is something that can get to the point where it gets you to agree with the persons cause.  They can make you feel guilty and that way you will change to their side and try to help.  Like when they tell you all of the consequences of throwing trash you feel bad and try to stop.  The music they use is sad and emotional to help the guilt.  Get the opinions of different people that agree with them.  Preferably celebrities that people will side with.  They connect the horses with American heritage and pride.  So you don’t want to destroy America.  They show pictures of both the wild horses running and then they show them being caught in inadequate facilities in very harsh ways.  Facts of how they are becoming extinct and how the government lets them get slaughtered.  They give you names of senators that support the idea of saving the horses.  They give the point of view of people defending them.        











Ethos, Pathos, Logos

What is it?

Ethos: Learn about your passion, what you are trying to convince or promote. This will help you on the persuasion.
Pathos: Make you audience feel the emotions you want, in this way you can convince your audience of what you want.
Logos: Proving you logic and proving that it makes sense and that it benefits the people you want to convince.




Pathos, Logos, Ethos Persuasive Journal 
On Chinese ''sweatshops" 
(I the last 2 classes in which this topic was discussed however I am still doing the homework as best as I can) 
Ethos: The poor in china are under harsh environments they lack what is necessary for standard living. They are kind of forced into finding a job. China's unemployment rate is 4,3, you may think this is not a lot since there are many more countries around the world which much higher unemployment rates. However China is the country with the biggest population on the world (having around 2 billion people). In the recent years more than 100 million people in china have moved to the cities, most of them to find a job. 
Pathos: They accept jobs with long hours and low pay because back home there's often no work at all.
Yet some regret they ever made the journey down here.
The story of Li Chun Mei, Zhou:
 Li Chun Mei, Zhou Shien Pin came from a remote corner of the Sichuan province.
He got a job in a paint factory and was hoping to save enough to build his family a house. But then he touched a high-voltage wire.
The accident has scarred his face and chest and his toes have melted away like wax, leaving just his ankles and heels.
"My mother cried for two months after it happened", The boss paid £2,500 ($4,000) compensation, but that money was quickly used up in medical fees and by relatives who had to travel down south to look after him.


He's fighting for more compensation but has little chance. Workers are dispensable in a place where there are four or five applicants for every job.
"Who'll employ me now?" he asked. "I came here because I wanted to help my family. Now I'm nothing but a burden to them."
This is just one of the many cases that happen every week in these Chinese's sweat shops. This is highly illegal and in most cases the people don't say anything about it.
Logos: People of the world, we can not let this kind of harm to anyone this people who decide to control this sweat shops and pay minimal pay have to be stopped. All of us should unite and get the chinese police forces to stop this people and take down their factory. The governement then should create companies that pay at least minimum payments to the workers and treat them well. This company shall produce money that would benefit the country as well.

Middle School Myth: Tardies

 PRØLOGUE
It was Bobs Kinder Garden, Early November 1915; it was a cold mid-fall morning. When Peeta Bloodscoundrel a tall, smart, handsome, kid awoke. He had been thinking nights and days about this. He bathed, dressed up and headed for school. The walk was long and redundant.
Life was not the same thing. Mr. Donaldson Has been doing it for way too long.
Peeta arrived to the little patio. Pushed the gates with enmity and entered through the small cobblestone steps. It was time for recess.
“Hey Mathew”
“Oh Hey Peeta, Sup men”
The Dullness was in the air.
Mathew did not now Peeta's thoughts that day, this day was not ordinary.
Peeta walked through the hallway silent.
Nobody moved; everyone just looked at Peeta. They all nodded their heads. Peeta sauntered through the hallway.
He collided with another kid. Gradually lifting his head up, he noticed it was Rob.
The dull words materialized; "Happy birthday men"
The blast extirpates the lockers…

Rubble and dust fall everywhere.
The sound of despair saturates the air.
All sound is lost.
Peeta gradually recovers his hearing.
Shouts, moans, agony, desperation.
Dry, blood-soaked coughs echoed through the destroyed concrete walls.
Dizziness, vertigo, breakdown.
It was ultimate supremacy. The Greatest Triumph.
Black out.

Chapter I Insurrection

“Good morning baby” Called mom softly.
It was Late September, a warm fall morning. Peeta woke up and dashed like a jackrabbit to eat breakfast. No seconds wasted. Peeta went into his room and packed his blueprints, without his mother noticing. There would only be one chance. The official Breaktension (The longest break extension in the entire year).  One week of one and a half hour breaks. Why do that nice thing for kids? In that week they left triple homework, with an intense grading system. Hurdling down the stairs Peeta stumbled and bruised his knee. No problem for a kid like Peeta. The bus honked and Peeta hurdled towards the stop.
The bus ride was silent and depressing.
At arrival everyone was delighted. The select few kept calm. Their name
La Résistance, the most elite child organization conformed by; Peeta, Rob, Mathew, Ralph, and Greg. All of them trained in sports, video games, martial arts, physical combat, parkour, math, and any mental activity. They had been planning these for weeks.

The classes went long-winded and felt eternal.
Breaktension was coming constantly and you could feel the mood of the last period of the day.
The seconds were ticking, slowly, gradually, progressively.
The bell rung and all the kids hoarded out of the classrooms like a bunch of farm animals.


La Résistance met by the tires and sat down facing backwards towards the school.  Appeased and with a distinct mood of ambition on his face Peeta settled the blueprints on the center of the circle. All the kids were impressed by the professional quality and intuitive genialness mixed to create the perfect plan.

The plan consisted of placing a stink and explosive bomb under the office of the principal. The blueprints were clearly made, and among other things included a very detailed air vent path. He pulled out the other diagram which had detailed timings of camera blind spots, concierge clean ups and teacher’s lounge breaks.

“How did you get this?” Asked Ralph startled at the esteemed information.

“It was nothing but constant concealed stalking of the schedule; moreover you can actually see the teacher’s lounge from the detention room” 

La Résistance concentrated around the blueprints. They had excogitated themselves for this. La Résistance was so good they could study something better than most adults with an advanced college study.  The bells Rung and the students went home.

The blueprints were shared until every agent got one day to view them.

Chapter II Technical Difficulties

As Ralph and Peeta got down from the bus Ralph started speaking.
“We have a snitch” Ralph said with complete austerity.
“I have found out the principal knows about our plans”

“Ahhh! Fu, Faaabrbrscmkf”’ Busted out Peeta
“We need to find out who the snitch is and we need to do it fast.”
“Today is the second to last Breaktension day and our last chance of doing this”.
“During the first break and early classes we shall try to find out who the snitch is, “if we not be successful we shall carry out with the plan.”

While this was a risky thing to do, Ralph did not hesitate in following Peeta’s instructions. Not doing so could result in the end of the operation.

The sound of the bell echoed through the empty hallways. They were late for class. Peeta hurdled to Science, While Ralph entered math. He had class with Rob.
“Rob, I think Peeta’s a snitch.”
“Why would you ever think this?” asked Rob with complete ignorance of the situation.
 “Yesterday afternoon I caught him talking to the principal” With their stealthy methods La Résistance managed to spread around the rumor.
    
As the rumors spread and first break came near all La Résistance was against Peeta. The bells rang and the children ran out to their first break of the day.  Peeta reached the rubber wheels in the playground, where they usually met. He was abruptly attacked by La Résistance.

“Come here you little snitch, pretending to be the founder of this organization. We officially kick you” Muttered Mathew in the most arrogant say.

“What the hell are you talking about” Peeta said with complete honesty.

“You have been talking to the principal behind our backs, in a complot to tattle tell on us” Rob (one of his best friends) and Greg grabbed him from his collar on his white polo shirt.

“No you don’t understand” Said Peeta “Im the schools triple agent”

“What are you saying” asked Ralph. Rob and Greg let go of him.

“I pretend to be the schools double agent.”

‘‘Wow, that explains a lot.’’
‘‘sorry men we thought you were one of them’’

“Don’t worry, Apology accepted.” “Now this is where we introduce the plan.”
“Get ready for operation Soap” While Peeta was speaking, the bell rung and the kids went back to their classes.

Chapter III The Job

The bells rung and La Résistance walked slowly to recess.  Their thoughts planned, their objective, one.  The all gathered around the back of the school and entered an air vent. They all had been trained for this. Stealthy as a ninja and quiet as the dead La Résistance moved through the air vents with no problems. They passed on top of the principal’s office, to the side, and then, exactly below it.
“What now? asked Greg”
Peeta pulls some weird liquid out of his pocket.
“Key word, Soap”.  La Résistance Realized he was talking about nitroglycerin and explosive made of soap. He placed a couple of bottles in the corner in some kind of machine. Tomorrow was his birthday. To trigger the machine one had to mutter the phrase “Happy birthday men” below the principal’s office.
“Brilliant” exclaimed Rob. They left stealthily.

Classes continue and at the end of the day came the announcements
“If one gets tardy on a class and email shall be sent home and there shall be an immediate expulsion, starting tomorrow” Peeta had done it, he had fed false information to the principal. He had told him tomorrow was the plan day, He was wrong. All of them wanted the destruction of the principal for their own reason. He had humiliated many students throughout his career.

Chapter IV Goodbye Principal Donaldson

Peeta awoke He had been thinking nights and days about this. He bathed, dressed up and headed for school. The walk was long and redundant.
Life was not the same thing. Mr. Donaldson Has been doing it for way too long.
Peeta arrived to the little patio. He Pushed the gates with enmity and entered through the small cobblestone steps. It was time for recess.
“Hey Mathew”
“Oh Hey Peeta, Sup men”
The Dullness was in the air.
Peeta walked through the hallway silent.
Nobody moved; everyone just looked at Peeta. La Résistance nodded their heads. Peeta sauntered through the hallway.
He collided with another kid. Gradually lifting his head up, he noticed it was Rob.
The dull words materialized; "Happy birthday men"
The blast extirpates the lockers…

Rubble and dust fall everywhere.
The sound of despair saturates the air.
All sound is lost.
Peeta gradually recovers his hearing.
Shouts, moans, agony, desperation.
Dry, blood-soaked coughs echoed through the destroyed concrete walls.
Dizziness, vertigo, breakdown.
It was ultimate supremacy. The Greatest Triumph.
Black out.

Chapter V Aftermath

Ambulances Came in. Peeta awoke in the hospital. Beside him was Rob, in the couch in front, the rest of La Résistance. They had all made it out alive. Peeta took the newspaper from the little hospital nightstand and read Terrible Accident in Middle school, Principal and several faculty killed, Parents apply new rule of Tardiness all around the country.
“I guess this is it”

Scoundrelish and suspicous,  not part of the system  rebellious kid , His deep dark secret will cause controversy.  His worst enemy: Mr. Nickey the school director. His best friend Mathew Korctovic is a Russian spy but neither Mathew or Peeta suspect from each other.
Rising Action:
Kids are planning the school revolution and meet up by the tires in the playground to discuss. As we think Peeta is the schools double agent but then we will realize he is a triple agent.

Only Rob survives to tell the story.
Falling Action:
Spies are hired to kill all parents and faculty.
Eventually The school hires new teachers and they get new students.

Revolutions rarely happen in schools again.
