How Far am I?

One of our major accomplishes with my project is planning our fundraiser. We have been doing this for a really long time and have been changing it a lot. I am nervous and also excited. I am excited because I really want this work good because I want to help the homeless. Also I am nervous because this could go wrong in many different ways. I don’t want this to fail, because this could help many people that need help and food.

My December goals are to see if we can do a fundraiser. We want to do a fundraiser at our high school and sell some candy to get enough money for our cooking classes. After that we are going to McDonald to get $5 gift cards and get bunches of water at local store. Then, we will go downtown to give out the gift cards and water to homeless people. Those are my December goals.

I like all of the season’s but one of them is the best! My favorite season is Winter! I liked Winter because I get to spent more time with my family, watch Christmas and Winter movies, and My favorite holiday is in this season, my favorite holiday is Christmas. I also like like the cold and drink hot chocolate.

I get to spent more time with my family because in the Summer my family is outside, and in the winter we are inside because it is cold outside. we Like to watch Christmas movies like Elf, The Polar Express, and much more! You can click here if you want to see more movies. We also like to go to my grandparents house and play games. Mostly Uno.

Those are some reasons why I like Winter. I like it because I can spend time with time with my family, watch Christmas movies and Winter movies, Christmas is my favorite holiday and it is in Winter, and I like hot chocolate. If you get board some day Click Here for some Winter activities! Winter is really fun! What is your favorite season? Why?

My Favorite Holidays Are…

Did you know that the first printed reference to a Christmas tree was in 1531 in Germany. Also the Germans made the first artificial Christmas trees out of dyed goose feathers. What to know more click here. Anyway I will tell you about one or more of my favorite holidays! First I will tell you about Christmas. What my traditions are we put up a tree and decaratie it. When it get’s closer to Christmas me and my mom make a lot of cookies to give out. Also we have a Christmas party. We invite a lot of our of our family and friends! On Christmas eve my family gathers together. We would also get together on Christmas later in the day.

Another one of my favorite holiday is Easter. I like Easter because I get to see my family. I also like Easter because I do a Easter Egg hunt with my cousin’s and my brother. One of our traditions is mom makes cookies with an hard-boiled egg in side. Here are two fun facts about Easter. The tallest chocolate Easter egg ever was made in Italy in 2011. 10.39 meters in height and 7,200 in weight, it was taller than an elephant! Also the UK’s first chocolate egg was produced in 1873 by Fry’s Bristol. Click here for more.Creative Commons License Marco Verch via Compfight

Now I will be talking about one more holiday. That holiday is New Years. I like New Years because I get a new start and I can get more organized. I also like it because I can hang out with my friends and family and have a party. Here are two facts about New Years, New Year celebrations are not new. The concept actually dates back to 2000 BC. The Mesopotamian used to celebrate New Year! Also  1st January as New Year was never a standard practice. Romans for instance celebrated March 1 as New Year. Some other cultures went for winter solstice or summer equinox. Click here if you want to see more.

What’s The M&W Delivery All About?

My 20% project is a fundraiser to raise money. Then we will do a cooking class with the money we get then with the money that I get form the cooking classes I will go to McDonald’s and my $5 give cards then I will go to Sam’s or Costco to by water bottles then give them to the homeless in Cincinnati. The name for my project is M&W Delivery.

I am feeling nervous, happy and sad. I am nervous because I don’t want this to fail cause we worked on this for a really long time. I am happy because this is a really fun project and I can’t wait to get the supplies for the homeless. Last, I’m sad because I feel bad for all of the homeless people because it is going to get really cold and they don’t have shelter to stay warm.

My major goals for November are to call a store to sell my fundraisers and to make money. I’m going to call Krogers to see if I can do a fundraiser and if I can then I make some sort of fundraiser to do there and  I will make money so I can rent a kitchen. hopefully I can make this happen!

Activities to do at School

Do You Need To Give Credit

Activity 1- If you copy and paste a picture and you forget the credit that is called copyright, so when you take a picture you need to give the people who took it credit. When you give them credit it is called attribution. Attribution means when you remake a particular author, artist or person image, music videos. When you take something you need to give credit, say you took a picture the you would press on the picture and copy the search bar then go back to where  you were then paste it. That is how you would get credit for a picture for a image or anything. When it is on there if you click on it then you will be able to go to that sight. And that’s how you give credit/attribution to someone. Here is an example      https://www.pinterest.com/pin/499688521132034202/

Our New House?

Hi my name is Molly I used to live in California in a nice neighborhood then we moved to Alabama in a not great neighborhood. There was not many houses to choose from but my parents really wanted to move to Alabama, so we pick the one on 556, Pine Tree DR. when I walked in I saw stains everywhere. I saw a red stain, “I think it is blood” I said to my mom. she said, “They had kids who liked to color…” My dad kept quite. I said to my mom, “Dad knows something” mom nodded her head.

What do you think will happen, comment below.

What Do I Look Like?

I made my avatar the way it is because I wanted it to represent me! It represents me because I have really dark brown hair, I have hazel eyes and I like different color shirts. The link that I made my avatar is from Face My Manga.                 The reason I put black hair is since I have really dark brown hair and they don’t have that color. I put more of a brown eye color because they didn’t have the a close enough color. I really like this website because I think it was a little more realest than the others ones.That is how and why I made my avatar.
