I call them, or text them. It is a good way to keep in touch with them. If I need some one to talk to, I just use my cellphone because if I go on the computer they may not be on and some don't have aol or aim. Also, I use it to listen to music or play games on my phone. I use it as an alarm to wake up every morning or if I know I'm going to forget something I put it on my calendar. 2.Something I could teach some one top do on the computer is to use the internet. I go on the internet all the time to go on myspace, aol, youtube, photobucket **   ** and to play games. **   ** 3.I would like to learn how to make my own website on a computer. This would be useful because I would be occupied everytime I'm on the computer. ** **4.A social network that I use is myspace. I like it because I get to talk to all of my friends if I don't have their number or they don't have a screenname. 5.The way I stay safe on my social network is keeping my profile private and not requesting or adding anyone I don't know. 6.Whyville is considered a Web 2.0 site because a 2.0 is where you interact with people and talk. At Whyville, you chat with people and play games with them. 7.I dislike the Whyville activity because I find the games very boring. Also, you don't get to choose what you want to write, you have to write the ones they have for you. 8.A wikispace can be edited by all members. This would be a good place to help other people with their work and ideas. 9.Wikipedia is a space that can be edited by anyone also. This would be a bad idea because people may write wrong things on peoples profiles. They may be questioned later on about it or teased. Someone may put something personal up that nobody wanted to see.**  **10.Something I learned to do on the wiki is how to is how to make my own journal. You go to sign up and give a correct email address plus a password. Once you do that, you go to edit this page. You make it to normal page and then you can type things, add graphics, and put codes for many things on there. Something I would like to learn how to do on the wiki put collogues on and out it as your backround. 11.Myspace is used by a lot of kids but the school wants the children to be safe. If your myspace profile is not on private, people around the world will be able to see your pictures, where you live, and more. If the school unblocked myspace, kids could possible be interacting with strangers. They could be murderist or criminals. This would be very unsafe for the kids. 12.Myspace should be unfiltered at school because many kids want to talk to ther friends and play music, look at photos and do more when they are in school. If they have time to be in computers they want it to be fun, not with just work. But, the school also should keep it blocked because if they didn't, many kids could be cyberbullied, threatened, harmed and much more. It is very unsafe for the kids. 13. It is both a parent's and teacher's job to teache the kids about being cyber safety because parents should not just let their children go on computers without any knowledge of being cyber bullied. They shoudl make their children put their social network profiles on private. They should tell them what to do if they are being cyber bullied. Children should always tell an adult and the cops. Automatically delete/block that person from your social network so no harm could come to you. It is also a teacher's responsibility because if children in their class goes onto social networks, they may decide to talk to people they do not know, thinking it is safe when it is on school grounds. But, not always. Teachers should make sure children are under a safe account and don't interact with other people. 14.Imbee is kind of like myspace. You can put photos and make friends. It is protected and you can write about yourself. You can make layouts too.**  ** 15. In Whyville, the give you a limited word box. You can only say a limited amount of things. This helps so that no person could curse or threaten another. Pretty much you can't cyberbully anybody on it. 16. I am interested dancing. I go to dance 4 times a week. 17. I especially like to hang out with my friends. We go so many places and have so much fun. 18. I really dislike homework. I feel like we have enough work to do in school and when we leave school it is our time to do whatever you want and not waste it on homework. 19. The thing that makes me different from other people is I am very random yet very serious at times. I embarass myself all the time and I'm proud of it. It doesn't matter to me, as long as I'm having fun.20. The thing I like about myself is I am completely weird. It is fun. 21. The thing I dislike about myself is that I am very easily distracted.22. The thing about myself that I would change is the fact that when I am upset, I get pretty mean so I want to change the fact that if I am upset, I won't take it out on anyone else. 23. My friends make me feel good. They are always there for me and always make me feel better. We always have so much fun and they always make me laugh. 24. I care about my family. They are the people that will always be there for you and help you with all of your problems. My family always get into fights but we wind up coming together. 25. Something I would want to know is: How was God born, if God made us? 26. Something I would like to do is fly all over the world without needing any money and buying whatever I want. 27. I would like to go to Paris because they have nice clothes. I've also heard it is really nice there. 28. Something that is really exciting to me would be to bungee jump off of the Eiffel Tower. 29. Two interesting people I know are Nicole and Kaitlin. Nicole is the weirdest person ever!!!! She will start cracking up out of no where over a cat dancing. Also, if she laughs, watch out. She will throw a perfume bottle at you in math class. She is totally obsessed with skittles. Its a little creepy. Kailtin is scared of squirells!!! Everytime we are in the park and she sees a squirell, she will scream and pull me in front of her. One moment she will be completely upset and the next shes cracking up over someone saying hi. She laughs over so many things and can be very, very slow. She can make something out of every little, boring thing.
