One student in Mrs. Buhrman's homeroom yelled out, "I hope you're happy I'll be grounded for the next 9 weeks because I have a C in your class!" Mrs. Pace, another seventh and eighth grade ELA teacher, reported that one of her students told their parents that Mrs. Pace "won't help me." Mrs. Pace has pulled this student every day during homeroom for extra help for the last three weeks. 

There is more to be learned here. What can be done to help students realize they are responsible for their own grades? Do they need to learn study skills? Why do students think teachers need to give them answers? And most importantly, is this setting them up for success in the real world?

Now as of this morning after listening to the teachers thoughts about the game, it doesn't seem as if they're taking this lightly. 

“Ava Dickson, Emily White i'm spiking the ball right at your face” Mr. Goble said

Dr. Clark even gave a “threatening”  speech telling the volleyball players to watch out and be ready for the teachers' skills. All this tension has caused a “rivalry” between the teams and tonight both teams will definitely put their all

into getting 50 points first. 

In the end, no matter how hard each team plays there can only be one winner. The question is who will claim victory and who will have to hold the embarrassment of losing.

Friday afternoon at around 6 pm the volleyball game came to an end. After a long 3 set game with great plays from both sides, the students took the win. 
Because the staff team was enraged after their loss they started accusing the students of cheating. Saying that they would have won but the "absurd amounts" of bad calls took their victory. But is this really true or is the staff team just mad at reality?

In Mrs. Belcher’s AR, I decided to interview 3 people’s take on hygiene in the school and boy did I get some interesting takes! 
My first interview was with Kenely who said this, “It’s nasty! It smells like a booty buthole in the hallways! Especially Mr.Reed’s room!” Then I went and asked Blaike what he thinks the school smells like and he says, “It smells horrible! It smells like dirty socks! Take a *cuss word* shower, like if you wanna have friends take a shower!” When I asked Ava how she feels about the cause of this scent she tells me, “They smell bad, it smells like sweat, nobody wears deodorant.”  After getting these results I couldn't help but think, is the hygiene of Beulah Park seriously a problem that should be taken seriously? Should students be required to have some sort of hygiene product? Let’s talk to Ava again!

Ava claims that the main source might be coming from the sweat drenched room. ⎯Gym. 
“Students should be required to wear deodorant right after gym class. That might lower the bad scent from the school.”  Ava’s idea suggests that deodorant should be a requirement for children who come from gym, but what if that isn’t the only source of this poor scent? What if it's too late to figure out the problem? There are many opinions on students scent but I guess we’ll never know the real problem.

Hygiene is important for everyone and should definitely be enforced but how will we get everyone to do it? It must be an impossible task, but in the meantime,  make sure to keep stinky scents down, and keep deodorants up!

 “ I live in Ohio” after saying this the neighbor talked about how it wasn't funny and said he was going to call the police. After this was said the boys grabbed all their stuff quickly and ran faster than they ever have. After the boys scattered across the neighborhood, several of them got lost, not being from the neighborhood.

I'm now going to interview the victim to see his thoughts.

“(Me)Is this a normal occurrence?” “(Nathun) No not really, I guess it depends”

“Do you think she should be charged for this?” “No, she is a great mother”

“Do you think you deserved this?” “Yes, I made a racial joke”

“Do you think this was a rational punishment” “Yes, she only hit me once, at least she didn't smack my girlfriend”

Burnout can take different forms for different people affecting a person physically, emotionally, or behaviorally. Burnout can cause frequent illness; disengagement and detachment; blunted effect; feelings of frustration, helplessness, hopelessness; and loss of motivation.

Around 52% of all workers in the U.S have said they have experienced burnout at some time in their life or are dealing with the problem now. People can deal with burnout in many ways but some of the most helpful are writing in a journal mindlessly not checking for spelling mistakes and writing whatever you feel most comfortable with. Finding your way to manage your time without cramming all your work at once. Or just finding someone you are comfortable talking to about your stress.
