Daily Blogger 5-13-15 Taryn

 I walked into school with high spirits, and then I remembered that it was Tristan’s last day of school. I am not ready for him to graduate. In fact this whole thing is going to go down really badly. Anyway in my first period class, reading, we finished our Nothing but the Truth projects. After that I went to science class. In science Faith and I continued working on our tower building project.

In English today we continued working on our ibooks projects. Our projects that we are doing are writing books for younger children. My book is about Hitler’s life. I choose this topic because when I was younger it was hard for me to wrap my head around what he did.


After school I went to my stepsisters softball game. It was a bit cool, but I am glad I got to see her first game of the season. Sadly they lost 4-2, but they will only get better. Hope everyone’s Wednesday was as great as mine.

Daily Blogger- May 12, 2015: Hannah

Get up late; stay up late. Repeat. This is how my weeks usually go, but this school year is finally winding down. Everyone is trying to get all those grades up to please our parents and us. Trying to get all of our final dues paid, so we can leave at 1:00 Thursday May 21st. The rushing and bustling of everyone trying to get all of our homework assignments turned in, studying for all of our tests we are having, and getting all of our projects turned in. I’m just hoping these last few days fly by, so we can finally get out of school and start our summer vacation. 
This week in English we get to skip DGP, which is totally fine with me. Today though we worked on our iBook Project that we have to finish by Friday. Everyone is adding finishing touches mostly now to their writing, so we can get to the fun part of adding all of our photos. I think it will be fun to look at all of the projects after they are finished and in the store.

            The junior high kids had a track meet in Ainsworth that got postponed from Monday to Tuesday. That was our last track meet until next year where us 8th graders will be heading to 9th grade and competing in the high school division. It is bittersweet knowing that was our last event before we will be in the High School. Well goodbye daily blogger it has been real.

Today I woke up excited for my last track meet, only to find out that it was moved to tomorrow because it’s to cold outside. As I walked into the school, I could hear people talking, and music playing. As first period came I realized with the rest of my class that we are supposed to have a guest speaker today from Nebraska Life Magazine. The guy from Nebraska Life Magazine told us a lot of interesting things about his job and what he does.

While sitting in English class impatiently, the class got time to work on our ibook projects. The project is over making a kid's book from a historical event. This project is also due Friday. My topic is over Anne Frank, I hope that this project goes well.

It’s the end of the school day now, and I’m packing up my stuff. The school year is almost over, and I can’t wait for summer. Today is my last post for the year on daily blogger. This is good-bye for now daily blogger see you next year.

Daily Blogger 5/7/15 By Decemberlyn


           
            There I lay waiting for my alarm to go off. Ring ring, there went my alarm. I got up got dressed half way decent because I was supposed to record today in science. 

            I walk into the school, I drop my gym bag off at my locker, and headed to the lunchroom to eat breakfast. On my way there I dropped my book bag, and computer off outside my first period class. When I got done eating, I headed to my first period. As I walk in, my substitute Mr. Price greeted me. I got my binder, did my warm up and sat down. For the rest of the class we finished our work sheets on the Outsiders. Ring, the bell rings; I head to second period.
            My second period is science with Mr. Morrow. I sat down logged into Edmodo and did our trivia.  For the rest of the class period we worked on our weather report projects. I was supposed to record, but I couldn’t so, I dressed half way decent for nothing, but it is not bad to dress decent sometimes. Ring, the bell rings; I head for third period.
            My third period is English with Mrs. Troester and Mrs. Babl. I grabbed my folder and started writing the sentence for Daily Grammar Practice. We did Wednesday and Thursdays because we didn’t do Monday’s so, we had to do two. For the rest of they period we worked on our project we have been working on. We have to make an ibook for kids. Ring, the bell rings; I head for fourth period
            The rest of the day went by fast. I like science class today; I didn’t really like Social Studies today though, but today was not that bad of a day. I am kind of glad that this is my last daily blogger of the year.

Daily Blogger 5/6/14 By Chandra


            I rushed out of bed to the sight of the dreary grey clouds outside my window. Not in the mood to hustle to get ready, I went super slow until my dad asked if I was ready to go. We all know what the answer was! After that, I hustled and bustled to shove stuff in my bag. When I got to school, the grey clouds had began to spill rain all over.
            Today in English, we worked on our iBooks. We started the period off by doing our daily grammar practice, and then we got work time. We can write our iBook about an person, place, or event in history. My iBook is about the history of Fourth of July. There is a lot more to it than we think.  I worked on my script for part of the period, and then got it okayed by Mrs. Babl. The rest of the time, I started drawing my narrator character.
            In science today, we were working on our weather report project. We have to make a weather report like you would see on the news about a certain city. Julia and I are working together, and we chose Orlando, Florida. We got our script done, so we got to start filming in front of the green screen. I think our project will be pretty good. Today was a pretty great day considering we’re pretty close to the end of the school year!

            Today is Tuesday, May 5. When I got to school, I ate my peanut butter crackers. In reading we read our book Nothing But The Truth. In science Collin and I worked on our weather forecast for Pago Pago, which is the capital for American Samoa. Then I walked into our English Class.
            In English we are working on our draft for our IBook projects. My IBook is about 9/11. I really am unsure about how to write this because this is a sticky topic. It is very morbid, but I don’t want my book to morbid. Hopefully I can figure this out. Also I am working on my narrator, which is going to be a firefighter.

           After all my classes I had to go to track practice. In track practice we finished the laugh Olympics. I was a little angry because we got second and lost by one point. After that I had to run conditioning. It was ok because we only ran about one and a half mile. After track Dawson and I worked out for a while. After working out I went home.

Daily Blogger 5/4/15 By: Claire Morrow

             Summer. It’s the best part of the year. No more school, teachers, and best of all, no more Daily Bloggers! Although we only have 2 ½ weeks left, teachers feel it’s the best time to pile on the homework. The last two weeks are the more stressful and longest lasting weeks because of the homework, testing, trying to get your grades up, and everyone just wants to get out of here. Every 8th grader here at OHS is filled with fear and excitement as 9th grade approaches us fast as lightning.  As I say goodbye to 8th grade Daily Blogger I say hello to freshman year.
            Today in English we skipped DGP, which is totally fine with me. After we all quieted down, Mrs. Troester instructed us to continue working on our notes for our iBooks projects. I am doing my project on Nashville, Tennessee, and I am pretty excited about it. This project seems like it will be a lot of fun! I can’t wait to see how everybody’s turns out.
           After English, math, civics, and Ag were tiresome and fairly boring. I think I can speak for pretty much everyone in the school when I say that I just want this school year to be over. Teachers talk about “running through the finish line,” but I wish the finish line would run to us.
