My Halo Story

This is my story about one of the things that goes on in Halo 3. The pictures show my friend, my brother, and myself and one of our days playing on Halo 3.

Homework

Homework, it is really long and boring, but in a way it's important and a good thing. Over the weekend I worked for three days straight on homework. I never want to see another homework assignment again or I'll go crazy. I have had very little sleep and my neck is killing me. I understand that homework is good and it helps but this, this was just too much homework to do. Yes I was absent for three days and I should have finished by now but I simply cannot work that quickly. I was even so tired that I accidently broke my glasses. It's not that bad of course I only have three more assignments to finish.

"There is research supporting the idea that homework is of little educational value, and that for young children (i.e., under 13) it may have a negative effect on learning."

Blogging in Education

Blogging is beneficial to education. It benefits education by expanding instructional time by providing teachers with a user-friendly online format. It is helpful to schools because it allows teachers to communicate with students, parents, or other teachers. Using blogging in schools can help teachers and students as well. Blogging in schools helps them by allowing teachers to review important class points and to review for tests.
