What is a Public Service Announcement?  (If you don't know what it is, Google it.)
In your own words, now tell me what it is?  What are they used for?  Can you recall an example of a PSA (or PSA's) you've seen before?  Is there a specific PSA that made a huge impact on you?

It is when an announcement is made and it raises awareness about the topic's issue so we can stop people from doing whatever they are doing. It can be a video or an article. We use them so we can change attitudes and behavior towards an issue. I can recall three examples: Drunk driving, Texting and driving, and bullying. I think the one that made the biggest impact on me would have to be Texting and Driving.

Prezi Reflection

I think Prezi is easier to use, because at Prairie Star we started using it in 6th grade and I never really used Power Point. I think you can use either to make an effective presentation, they present in different fashions but they are both very effective. I can not think of a time when I had to create a presentation where one would have been better than the other.

Response to "Words for teenagers"



Read this small newspaper clipping and then write a blog post about it. What are your thoughts? How does it make you feel? Do you agree? Disagree? Explain yourself.

My thoughts are for what that person said. Teenagers need to stop being lazy cry babies and actually do something for the world, and their parents and start paying them back for all that they have done for you. Kids are taking advantage of their parents and the world around them. But their are some good teenagers that actually do stuff to help the world and do things for their parents.

This makes my feel like this newspaper clipping needs to be shared with the millions of teens across the nation. This doesn't make me feel very good, because so many teens mistreat the world and take advantage of their parents.
