Alternative Energy Graph


This blog shows three different cars made by toyota. As you can see the prius has more milage than the other two cars. That is becuase it is a hybrid. A hybrid is a type of car that is more energy efficient. It can go further on a gallon of gas compared to the other cars. I think for alternative energy, all cars should be hybrids. We would save gas and we would save money. I got my information from www.fueleconomy.gov

iPods and MP3 Players in School By: Evan Grey

I think another school issue in school is allowing kids to listen to MP3 Players in school. I understand that teachers are concerned about childs safety because they could be distracted, but some students can pay attention while listening to music. I know that I feel that I could pay attention while listening to music. The other problem is that some students who don't have MP3 players or cant afford them, might feel jelous that everybody else has them. They might hold a grudge against certain people, which can create issues as well. But some students (like me), need to listen to music regularly. I listen to music everyday. Today during study hall I had an urge to listen to music. For students it is relaxing and a stress reducer. I believe that the facilty needs to readjust this rule because it keeps students happier, and less stressed out.

School Issues at Williston Central School

I think an issues at Williston Central School (WCS), is that there are limited computers. Many times in my team, there are limited computers. Many students who need computers don't have accessibility because there aren't any available. Many students have homework that is due that they planned to do at that time and other students are using the computers. I think that we either need more computers available to students, or we should pass a rule (in our school), or a law (in our state) that every student has the accessibility of a laptop.
