what do you think? 12-10

3- 1.Cyberbullying is a problem that affects almost half of all American teens. 2.When teens were asked why they think others cyberbully, 81 percent said that cyberbullies think it’s funny. 3.Youth who are cyberbullied report feeling angry, hurt, embarrassed, or scared.

2- I have two questions requarding this article....1. Was there a survey that teens took for them to figure out the poll 81 percent said that cyberbullies think it’s funny? 2. Why is cyberbullying most popular in the age group of teens?

3-  The main idea of this article is to inform people about cyberbullying and to show how many people it effects also how to prevent it.

My Opinion On Cyberbullying By:Halle-Kate

Online bullying, called cyberbullying, happens when teens use the Internet, cell phones, or other devices to send or post text or images intended to hurt or embarrass another person. Cyberbullying is a problem that affects almost half of all American teens. To me this is upseting that teens would do this surely knowing it was bound to harm or embarrass someone. An example I have seen of cyberbullying is a comercial  on disney channel where there was of two best friends and one of them shared an embarassing secret with the other but she felt confident doing it because she trusted her. It turned out the friend who was trusted with the secret let her friend down by posting the secret on facebook where everyone could see it due to bullying from other school mates. However cyberbullying ,or any bullying for that matter, is never okay and and that is why it is my opinion that cyberbulling is BAD!

Books That I Recomend Part 2

Wolves of the Beyond Shadow Wolf by: Kathryn Lasky 12/1

1. The conflict in this mystery, fiction book was when the hardships were just begging.A wolf pup is murderred and Faolan is framed for the crime. Faolans survival is once again on the line.

2. My favorite character in this book was Faolan who was a protagonist and also static and major. Faolan was an amazing testament of a true friend when he would not leave Fengo behind during the fleet at the wolf pups murder. A quote that reminds me of this characteristic trait is...." I could never leave you, come on!"

3.An interesting authors secret in this book was how she, as I learned in language arts class, did not unveil the climax until less than a mear chapter away from the last page.

4. A new word I learned from this weeks reading was unconscionable which is an adjective and the meaning not guided or controlled by conscience.

5. This book most likely is not a book I would do for one of my book comercials because it is not a just right book although it was one I really enjoyed untill the last sentence she wrote.
