Final Reflection
     My best peice is She Walked the Dog. I had good sentence beginnings, and compound sentences. I had strong verbs and I had either little or no spelling and grammar mistakes. I have improved greatly on my writting this year.

My Thoughts on Blogging in the Classroom
    The thing I liked most about blogging was I thought it was fun to use computers because I don't like writting everything by hand. I like typing a lot, so this made this a lot more fun. Also, I like the idea of being able to get to my work from home on the computer, or anywhere that has one for that matter.
     There isn't anything that I hated, but the thing that was the least enjoyable to me was commenting on other people's blogs, because I was more interested in writting my own blog than seeing other people's. Also, that just took up more time, and I think that the teacher should only do the commenting.
    My writting has improved somewhat because I never used to say anything such as," To jump on the trampoline was fun." I would always say,"Jumping on the trampoline was fun. I hardly ever used words with ing on the end, either. This was mostly becuase of blogs, beacuse we had to make an improvement on our writting. This was what I chose to do.
    The only thing that should be changed is we should be allowed to use smiley faces and pictures. Otherwise, this is a very good teaching tool, and you should continue using this as a tool.

Summary part 3
The Amazon rain forest is being destroyed, but concerned people are trying to save it.  In the 1960’s, the Brazilian government told the poor people to live in the rainforest.  This brought roads, loggers, and sawmills to the rainforest.  More people began to be concerned about the loss of the rain forest. Soon after, gold was discovered in the Amazon.  This made thousands of people come in to get gold. In 1991, Brazil saved 36,000 square miles of the land for the Yahnomami, the natives to the land.  In the year 2004, almost 10,000 square miles were cut down.  Some experts estimate that in the last few years, more than twenty percent of the Amazon was cut down.  Since soy farming has become more popular, more people are building roads and clearing the Amazon to find soy.  Working with the WWF and the ARPA, Brazil is trying to save the Amazon.  They are preserving at least twelve percent of the rain forest now, which is about the size of California.
