The West City Park Feildtrip

Yesterday everybody walked down to West City Park and got to build boats that we had to test in a tub of water. We had to try and make the boat that could old the most weight. Then we got to go play in the feilds. I played football, extream frisby, and got to jump off of the swings a lot. One time when I jumped off the swings at weat city I face planted into the mulch. It hurt a lot but I got back up and tried again.

Things That Really Bug Me

Something that really bugs me is when my brother does something bad and I get in trouble because I " Let" him do it, but when I try to stop him from doing something bad, I get in trouble for not miding my own bissnuss. Then I ask what am I supposed to do when he tries to do something wrong and my mom says the oppisite of what I did. So if I tried to stop him, She tells me "Mind your own bissnuss." but if I don't try and stop him she says "Why didn't you stop him." Thats what bugs me.

I Don't Know What to Write About.

I have no idea what to say...  I like chicken. When I get bored I say random things. Whats your favorite food? I am running out of things to ask and say. What do you do when you get bored? I run around or play on my phone, which usally gives me something to do. What kind of phone do you have? I have an IPhone 4S. It's pretty cool I guess. So... did you se that game where Matt Holiday kicked that swish.

Eli is mean

Eli Vroman was sitting in the multipurpose room today and I walked over and tosed my bookbag to him, well being Eli, he decided to slam my bookbag on the ground. I didn't thin anything too bad happened to my bookbag. a couple of minutes later the whole multipurpose room smelled of awesome cologne. I immediatly jumped up and looked in my bookbag. My cologne bottle was shattered inside of it. I started yelling at Eli beause that was brandnew cologne I had just gotten a few days earlier. I was so mad. Then I realized that not only was my cologne was broken, all my stuff was ruiened.

Kid Nation 5

The first word I saw was GROUP. A group is two or more people in regular contact. The groups were divided by colors. Another kind of group they have was the counsil member. They are the leaders that run the town. They help everyone stay in order so that the town


I also saw the term CONFLICT. I saw this when the two kids were yelling at eachother because of the relection. They were fighting because they wanted to be apart of the council. And the boys were ripping up the pisters and the girls got into a fight with them.


I also saw PRIMARY GROUP.  The primary group i saw was the Counsil Members. They emotionaly support eachother when one f them gets sad or upset. The others groups of primary groups i saw were the different districts. Like they support eachother if something happens

Kid Nation 7

The firs thing I saw in his episode was DEVIANT. I see this when Taylor doen't do what she needs to do. She wouldn't work or listen. She doen't like doing work because she is supposed to. She doesn't want to be the laborer.

the next thing I saw was STIGMA. I saw this because Taylor is labled as lazy and not a hard worker. She never thinks she needs to work. But the town tells her every day to because they need to build the town. But she never helps.


I also saw was SOCIAL CONTROL. When they are telling Taylor to work. They try to punish her but they never can get her to do anything. She thinks tat since she is a pagent queen she is to good for work. But everyone needs to work.

The first thing I saw was AUTHORITY when the people punished Taylor for not working when she needed to. The town needed to get all the garbage out of the town. She didn't help carry trash so they told her to take water from the the water spout to the water tower. But she didn't, she just tipped the water on the ground. They were the boss of her but she didnt listen.

The next thing I saw was CONFORMITY when Taylor's friend started acting good so she didn't get punished. But then she turned right around and started acting like Taylor. She didn't meet the groups expectations. Also when DK decided to stay because he didn't want to dissapoint everybody. They all ajusted to meet the groups expectaions.

The last thing I saw was SOCIAL EXCHANGE when the kids start volenterein for evry thing because they want the gold star. The kids were working harder just to get the star. They were just being selfish and only thinking about themselves. Like when Greg started working hard just to get the golden star. Then after he got it he stoped working. That was all he wanted. Thats all everybody wanted.

Kid Nation 4

The first vocab word I saw was SOCIAL INTERACTION when two of the kids were brought together because they were Jewish and the two others because they were Christian. They were fighting about they're religion. The kids also were fighting about being put together in one church.

I also saw SOCIAL SOLIDARITY when everyone was fighting about their religion. They were all mad because some are very sencitive about their reiligion. They don't like learning about the other religions. They are scared of it.


I saw ACHEIVED STATUS when the teams were destroying each other for the ranks of the town. They wanted to be upper class. They just didn't want to do chores. They also wanted the money
