Experience writing to my teachers

Writing to my teachers was pretty easy. I don't really like writing, especially to my teachers. I would have rather not done that project but I had to. It was a really boring assignment. I hope I don't have to do that assignment again. I don't have that fun of classes so it was hard trying to figure out what I was going to say to my teachers.

Dear Teachers

Dear Teachers,
         I like most of my classes. My favorite class in Algebra with Mrs. Dobash. It is a really fun class. My other favorite class would have to be American History with Mr. Ashcroft. I like it because there is not a lot of homework. My least favorite thing about school is homework. I hate having to go home after a whole day of school and have to do more school work. I would love for homework to just disappear. A lot of times if I have a lot of homework I will on purposely not do it. I really like graphic design because there is absolutely no homework. Spanish is not a very hard class either. Sometimes I would like to get out of it but it is not because of the teacher, it is because of some of the kids in the class. Mrs. Stover is a great teacher. The bad part about Spanish is that I'm stuck with all sophomores which can get really annoying some times. I would have rather of taken it my freshman year and I would have been done with it by now and I would have had friends in my Spanish classes. Forensic science is okay. It would be better if we didn't do all the summaries and have so much writing. When I signed up for it last year I wasn't expecting there to be so much writing. Other than that it is a really great class. I really like all my classes this year. I hope I have this great of classes next year since it will be my last year. All of my teacher are really nice and don't tend to get too mad.
Sincerely,
Zack McAtee

What I like about my self

I likea few things about my self. First of all I like that I get good grades. Second that I'm a really good bowler. I don't really like talking about my self though. I don't want to be a showw off. I'd rather hear about other peoples accomplishment rather that my own. Those are some of the few things that I like about my self. There is not much eolse about me.

Engaging in class

I could engage in class by participating in conversations. I could give answers to the teacher when they ask questions. I could help the teacher when they ask for help with stuff. By engaging in class it would make class more interesting. Without engaging in class it is boring. Someideas would be to make class fun. Have more details than just topics. Details help a lot. Have conversations about things that are actually interesting. A lot of the conversations teachers give are really boring. Those are some things that would help engage in class activities.

I think it is a bad way to organize people because just someone fails a test doesn't mean they are not smart. If you fail a test it can mean your a bad test taker not dumb. I don't think that is how people should be judged for graduaation.

What was one of the major points of Ken Robinsom's talk?

In his talk he talked about adhd. He said that because of tv kids are having a hard time paying attention in school because some teachers bore us to death with book work. He said that teachers need to be more interactive with their students. I agree with him a lot of teachers just throw a book at you and tell you to read it. I like more interactive projects.

More Aliens

Here's another promotional image I did for the latest game I worked on.  This one was a blast to do.  I've always loved those cheesy b movie posters and this was my chance to do one.  I want to print it up really big and hang it in my house.
