Hello. Once again we had issues with the site for some time. But it's all better now(mostly)! On the note of education, let me give you some things to ponder...
ABOUT MIXTURESSSSSS!!!!! READER'S MIND: OH, REALLY. SO SHE'S GOTTEN CRAZIER OVER THE MONTHS. NOW SHE'S TALKING ABOUT THE STUFF IN THE GROSS COOKIES MY AUNT MADE LAST SUNDAY. Yes, yes, reader. But there's a method to my madness. Now you probably think that I sound like a teacher who's trying to console their students about writing a ten-page book report unexpectedly over the weekend when I say that. But mixtures are actually really cool! A MIXTURE IS SOMETHING MADE UP OF TWO OR MORE DIFFERENT SUBSTANCES THAT ARE PHYSICALLY COMBINED TOGETHER. (NO COMPOUNDS WELCOME TO THIS PARTY!!) For example, a bag of trail mix is a mixture, but water is not. (Trail mix is considered a heterogeneous mixture because an observer can see all the parts of the trail mix without aided, unnatural eye site. There are two types of mixtures: homogeneous and heterogeneous. Homogeneous mixtures are just the opposite of heterogeneous mixtures) Concrete is a mixture, but carbon dioxide is not.

Hello, fellow and perhaps slightly frustrated readers! I apologize for Braelynn and I not getting on for a while. :/ Braelynn doesn't need to apologize because I was the one who changed the password to something cuckoo and forgot it. O_O
-Meg Hello, readers! It's Meg, and I have an argumentative essay that I made for school that I wanted to share with you. Tell me what you think!
Are you or someone you know a student? If yes, are there cell phones allowed in the classroom? All over the nation, schools, students, and parents debate on whether or not cell phones should be used in the classroom. Cell phones can be a distraction and can be used inappropriately in class. For these reasons, cell phones should be banned from the classroom. One reason that cell phones should be banned from the classroom is that cell phones can be used to access inappropriate content. In the article called Should Schools Allow Cell Phone Use During the School Day?, the author writes, “Many parents… are concerned about mobile access to inappropriate content”. A large number of parents are worried that their children may be on inappropriate material during school hours. The author of the same article also says, “... inappropriate use of the photography feature… can affect students’ class participation grades as well”. Other adults agree that cell phones should be banned from the classroom because they have consequences for when students use their cell phones inappropriately. As you can see, cell phones can be used inappropriately during class, but did you know that they can also be distracting during class? Another reason that cell phones should be banned from the classroom is that they can be a distraction in class. In the article Should Schools Allow Cell Phone Use During the School Day?, the author says, “A recent university study found that 90% of college students surveyed admitted texting during class”. Students’ cell phones can be distracting because with cell phones at their hands, they can be doing things that do not have to do with school. In the same article, the author also says, “One professor informed the students that if he even saw a cell phone during a test, the owner would receive an automatic zero, whether the phone was in use or not”. Cell phones can be a distraction during tests, even if they are not being used. As you can see, cell phones should be banned from the classroom, but others disagree. Other people believe that cell phones should be allowed in the classroom because they can be used in emergency situations. This is because if something changes or occurs, parents would want their children to be safe. In the article Should Schools Allow Cell Phone Use During the School Day?, the author states, “Scheduling and safety are the main reasons parents want their children to have cell phones during school hours”. Although others may believe this, they are wrong because there are other ways that students can communicate with their parent or guardian in emergency situations. Students can access a phone in the school or email their parent or guardian with a school computer. While others believe that phones should be used in school, they should not. Cell phones can be used inappropriately and can be a distraction, thus they should be banned from the classroom. Do you really want to be disturbed or have someone cheat on the big test? https://issuu.com/harpercollinschildrensbooks/docs/pages_from_warriorshawkwing_txt
