What Happen In Class ..

Today in class was pretty good. At first, it was boring, but then it got kind of interesting. The beginning of class we had a reading test. Which I didn't get to read about. I was doing all my work over the 3 days we was out. So, I didn't have no time of reading this book, but that's no excuse I still got to do this test. I failed...Of course, but that still didn't let me stop doing my work. Me and my classmates had to do a "Socratic Seminar" and the crazy thing about it I just did a Socratic Seminar last period in Government. So this is very ironic. The topic of the seminar was about teens & social media. We was going to watch a video that went viral all throughout social media, but we didn't get watch it. It hasn't been 2 seconds into the video and everyone just started to scream and yell "OH I SEEN THAT VIDEO!" or "I SEEN IT! I SEEN IT!" After that they had to cut it off. It was pretty funny at first, but most people didn't get to see the video, so that sucks. Then, we have to make up questions base on the video that we never seen, but we all had an idea about what the video was about. During the Socratic Seminar there were very interesting questions about the video. One question I heard was "why do teens think social media is so important to them?" I can answered this myself. Teens think this way is because maybe they are stuck in between two worlds. What I mean is that they are stuck between the "virtual" world and "reality." Some people can go without a day or a week on their phone, because most teens are on Facebook, Kik, and specially Instagram. All of these popular social media websites are very addicting and also it will get in the way of people lives and also, it can change people perspective. Today was a good day in class, expect the annoying teacher that was always down my back by getting of task just for one second, but in all today in class was interesting and positive...for the first time.

  1. Because we didn't see the film, you were supposed to ask questions about the article we read!
