In class, we have been learning months and dates. In this video, we have Deja and Taylor trying to wish Tony a happy birthday, only to find out that there has been a mistake. Since we've been learning about the temperature, and forms of weather in class, we thought that it would be appropriate to do a weather report for this video.

Who is Tylier Driscoll online?

During the classroom activity I watched a video of a cartoon monster kid getting bullied http://iwitnessbullying.org/. I realized that this video brings to light what someones life can be like without a friend and also what some people can go through with too much exposure to the internet. I found very small amounts of myself when searching for myself, the only thing that i found was my old private Facebook page, email, and twitter account. Then, I went to the second page and I found my middle school graduation page. Based on this they may see me exactly how I am today, a teenager in the 9th grade with a lot of private accounts. I believe the goal of internet trolls is to be funny and annoying. This is because they think that it's okay to say rude things on the internet while thinking that they're funny. The positives of anonymity is that your identity remains secret and that nobody can track your movements throughout the web.

Cinco Amigos

As the school year went on, we learned the Spanish alphabet. In this video, Raymond is struggling with his Spanish homework. He asks his friend, Matthew, for help on spelling a word, but still gets confused. It takes the whole group for him to understand.

One of the things we have learned so far has been proper restaurant terms to use. In the video, Matthew, Zaire, and Myah are sitting at a table in a restaurant after being at a Halloween party. After some laughter and confusion, everybody is able to order and have their food.
An important lesson that we have learned so far has been learning when to use proper respect with adults. When speaking to a friend or equal, you use tu. However, you should use usted to be respectful with adults and other authority figures. A few friends learn how to do this when they get busted at a party by two police officers. The kids run off and are chased by an officer, but one stays behind to find something interesting.
Weather and seasons is another lesson we have learned. In this video, Emily is confused about the weather. Her friends decide to explain it ti her by showing some of the weather in the seasons.

In class we learned how to say the alphabet, this came in handy when Eli and Afi crossed paths with a troll that was not satisfied until one of them recited it back correctly, to then be able to successfully go over to the other side.


We were taught how to ask and describe multiple types of weather. This is necessary when Lauren desperately needs to know the state of weather for the day, or else she’ll melt by the extremes she will be exposed to.

We learned how to properly use tu and usted. This skill is utilized when Lauren and Olivia intend on discussing something with their teacher and Lauren uses the incorrect term while speaking to Afi but is then corrected.


Learning the days of the week proved to be an important skill when the date of a quiz is unknown. We demonstrated the concept of the days of the week in a classroom environment so the students were aware of the event coming up, and also being able to correctly state the day of the week.

ILP

For my ILP, I go to Mighty Writers in West Philly. I do a writing mini course along with SLA Beeber kids and everything is going great. I am looking forward to learning more about writing, writing structures, and poetry (that's one of the main things we do there). Something that stands out to me is how comfortable and open the setting is at Mighty Writers; its an atmosphere where you can be yourself and bring your ideas to the table to be shared. I think its important to be open to others' ideas and opinions and try your best to compromise when there are disagreements. What went well for me was getting to meet new people and develop a good relationship with the people I'm working with and my boss.  

Network Diagram Brendan Hall

Network diagram (3)
Most of our technology was connected to our router. This technology includes our laptops, phones, and Playstation which are connected to our router. Our PC and printer which are not wireless PC and printer are connected to my ethernet. I learned how t the electronics I use connect online from the ethernet and from the router. earned that most of my technology is connected to the router. I would tell people that they need to know how wireless and wire connected devices that connect to the internet work so that you would know how to fix it if something got disconnected. 

Theater ILP Post #2

This month my for my Ilp we are going to go see a play called disgraced. Before we get there, my Ilp instructor had us read a scene from the play which was very interesting . It makes me excited to actually see the play. We also have been  focusing on the skill of making our own bodies into props. We are getting the feel for  the space on stage . ILp has been very interesting and fun.  I am looking foward to see our skills that we learn in full effect.

ILP

For my ILP thus far, I have spent the time at the organization I work for (ARC) and just really taking the time to organize paperwork out. Things can get confusing with so many parents in this program and information can get mixed around. It is my job for a while to make sure that everything is organized and put in the proper places. I also have been shredding paperwork that is not needed anymore so that no ones information is laying around anywhere and not needed. Overall, I enjoy what I am doing this far with helping out the organization and looking forward for more opportunities I will have for being the extra hand.
