Academic Language Week 35 - Sweatshops

Are sweatshops a violation of people's human rights?
Sweatshops are a violation of people's human rights.  One reason is the LABOR they are put through does not meet the pay that they recieve.  Not all people can live off of a pay of average $4.50 and will have to live on the streets.  Another reason to why is because They do not have a CONTRACT that APPLIES to them and can be fired at any moment.  A contract is made so that workers have to work for a certain amount of time before they can be fired by the boss.  The last reason why is because the factory setting is unhealthy with tempatures at about 100 degrees and the chemicals are very harmful to them.  The are of a worker effects the worker the most, and the conditions of a sweatshop does not compare to a normal factory, the factory can lead to the death of its many workers.  Thoose are three reasons to why  a sweatshops violates any human beings human rights.

Academic Language Week 31 - Teen Vandals

Parents of teen vandals should have to pay for the damage to the SPECIFIC property. One reason why is because the teen needs to know how to be responsible for their actions. As a parent their job is to teach their children how to be responsible. Another reason is because than the parent will COMPUTE the necessary punishment for their child. Without knowing how bad the damage was, the parent will just give the a minor consequence. The last reason why is because to ACHIEVE a better economy the tax should not go up, when the parent doesn't have to pay the tax goes up. In turn effecting the taxpayers loosing more money for everybody. Those are the reason why parents need to pay for their teens' damage to property.

Spring Break Blog Paragraph

B: Summarize your entire Spring Break
Through my entire Spring break I spent three days on restriction. My reason that I was put on restriction was for being rude to my staff after she would yell at me. On Tuesday I came home from lunch to find my room flooded! Our shower was clogged and all the water drained out to my room. I was given that day of restriction off because I couldn't stay in my room to avoid contact with the staff. So I spent most of the day with Aqua, Azjah, Alex, and Kyhree in front of Girls 8. For the rest of the week I mostly stayed over at Boys 3 with Azjah, we watched movies and played games with the boys. We were learning to play Modern Warfare 3 and watched as Kyhree played as Batman and Catwoman in the video game Batman: Arkham city. Lastly on Sunday the Grandparents threw everyone a huge block party, they had games set up and one of the Grandparents made snow cones for us all to eat, while we waited for the food to be done.

Academic Language Week 29 - School Conferences

Parents should not face jail time for missing their child's school conference. One reason is the government doesn't need to be filling jails with semi-harmless people.  The jails are TRANSFERRING the violent people who earn their way into jails.  Another reason is some students SEEK to be as independent.  Making a parent go to conferences and telling the parent to help the child, might very well not help the child at all. Additionally, there is many other RESOURCES for children to use, they can ask help from their teachers, friends, and even the web.  The don't really need to rely on the pressure from their parents to make them do better. In conclusion, no parent should have to leave their child to face jail times from missing a simple school conference.
