West City Park

Yesterday the whole seventh grade went to the park, and had a competition on how could make a boat that could hold the most weight in water. I didn't win of course the first boat I had wouldn't work because it was too big. The second one wasn't that durable and sunk as soon as we put weights on it. The whole reason was so we could have fun and  hang out with our friends. We had to leave early because it was getting hot. When we got back we all had an ice cream and watched a movie.

What bothers me is Homework



Homework bothers me because you shouldn't have to do work when you go home. It's even worse when teachers give home work on the weekend. Your weekend is so posted to be off from school, but you can't do that if you have homework. The only reason I don't like it is that you learn it in class, and if you do that I don'/t see the point in homework. I know it is so you don't get it wrong.

The City Museum

Tuesday I went to the City Museum and it was kind of fun. I stepped in water after being there about an hour and the water went all the way up to my knee. The rest of it was fun that was the only bad part about it. I had Dawson, Reese, Gabe, Dylan, and Anthony in my group. We mostly stayed in the caves. That was the coldest place in there.

Kid Nation 6

      In Kid Nation I see Authority in that I see the counsel members use their authority to help the town get all the trash cleaned up and keep it clean. Another example of that is they punished Taylor for not helping and then she didn't do what she was told to do. DK had an idea that the hole town help fill the water bucket. And every in the grabbed a bucket and helped and he didn't abuse his authority. And DK didn't abuse that.

      There is also rationalization in the town. DK used reason to calm every body down at the town hall meeting. He also used planning to have the hole town fill up the water bucket. Galan used reason to keep DK from leaving. And the town counsel used planning to get all the 5trash cleaned up.

      I also see social exchange. Some of the people had done some work and thought they should get the gold star. There is also the people had to clean things and then they want peoples pity. They also do that in there groups. They do it in there age groups as well.

Kid Nation 7

       In Kid Nation 7 I also see deviance. Taylor never does the work she is assigned, and then they give her punishments and then she doesn't do them either. Taylor thought she was better then every body. Jared tipped Deva's stand over, and her food went every where. Deva didn't have any thing to say to Jared.
I also see deviants in kid nation.Jared flipping deva's stand over would be an example because he did it for a stupid reason. A second example of that is Taylor doesn't do work and that most people don't do and they do there work. A their example of that is when Greg kind of messed with Nathan about how he worked. And that is how I see deviants.

      I also see primary deviance. Greg gets mad sometimes and takes it out on every one else. So does some of the other people. All the people do it if you think about it. Taylor does it all the time.

Kid Nation 5

       In Kid Nation 5 I see a lot of groups. One of the groups is all the younger kids in the yellow team, the older kids in the blue team, and he middle aged  kids in the red and green teams. Another group is the kids that do there work and the ones that don't. Then there is the girls and the boys. And there was  the group of the people how complied about getting up and those that didn't.

       There are also conflicts. An example of that is between Olive and the leader of the blue. Another example of that is between the leader of the red  and the person that was running angst him. A third conflict is when they chose the dental health over barbecue, and the hole town was mad. There was the conflict between Taylor and Zach.

        A third thing I see is social network. The blue group is a social network along with all the other groups. There is also the network of the younger kids. And the older kids have a network as well. The hole town is a social net work if you look at it right.

Kid Nation 4

           In the fourth Kid Nation I see obligation have, but some of the kids didn't want to do their jobs witch they where told to do. One example of that is when yellow didn't want to do their jobs like cook and clean. The yellow team was the upper class and had the opposition to help to help but only one person helped every one else.

           I also see rights everyone there has the right to work, but that doesn't mean they will. The yellow team has the right to work, but the yellow team doesn't help even when they have duets to complete. They don't take any thing the right way and just slack off.

         The last thing I see is role. All the yellow people think there all that, and don't don ant of there work. And the rest of the people just do there work, they get mad at the yellow team.
