It was early Sunday morning and I was on my way out to take my dog chase for a walk. We normally go on walks everyday but today I wanted to go somewhere new with him. So since the Audubon Society was I decided to take him there. We took a short route through Brett … Continue reading A walk in the woods
Before Corona got really big, I flew to Utah. I was actually very nervous about the flight because I obviously do not want corona. I told my parents that I was nervous about it. The decision had come down to whether or not the plane ride was worth it. I read many articles about … Continue reading The Plane Ride
On march 30th it was Ava’s birthday. And her mom set up that me and some of our other friends and all of our families would all go over to their house and have ice cream from an ice cream truck and we would all stay 6 feet apart. And me and my friends all … Continue reading Ava´s party
After I found out that we weren’t going to go to school till April 20th, I wanted to do something with my hair since literally no one is going to see me because of quarantine. I asked my mom if I could cut my hair up to my shoulders and she did not want me … Continue reading Quarantine has get to me
Today is Friday April 3, 2020. It has been a very scary few weeks. Our school got shut down until April 31st… But that will probably be longer. I hope that we can go back to school sometime soon. The number today is 1,033,478. Connecticut can only test about 20 tests in a day. Which … Continue reading A Bundle of Thoughts
To continue off of what I was saying yesterday, I have missed school. You got me I said it. I miss all my classes not only because it has been so long but it is becoming more and more possible that I might never return to the school for classes again. I heard that things … Continue reading Think-aloud
I remember the day we got out of school being excited to not have to go to school for the next week. How we would have a week break out of school and then everything would pass over. Well, I was obviously so very wrong. I didn’t realize how scary, and stressful COVID-19 was at … Continue reading COVID-19 Thoughts
In my first post about COVID-19 and the economy, I went into why we shouldn’t panic and be fearful in the midst of this situation, and how the stress of the crisis was causing mass Capitalization off of people’s overreactions. In this second post, however, I do want to dig more deeper into the actual … Continue reading The Economy, And COVID-19: An Overview
It seems like everyday that goes by being stuck at home gets a little longer everyday. Yesterday I went out for a ride on my bike and saw a lot of people doing the same. It was nice getting out of the house for a change and hopefully I will get out again today. While … Continue reading Distance Learning Day 6
My sleep schedule is going all over the place. Yesterday I woke up at 12 and now I’m waking up at 7. I guess it’ll even out eventually. I decided to change books because the whole script format of the Miracle Worker was giving me a headache. I’m trying to work on new skills since … Continue reading Distance Learning Day 4
During this break I’ve been waking up between 12 to 2 and it’s been pretty nice. Just like a never ending snow day. I’ve been enjoying a lot of sleep. The only problem with sleeping is that it’s hard to sleep at night. I can never fall back asleep after I wake up at … Continue reading Never Ending Snow Day
If I could pick anywhere in the world to go to and if it was the only place I could travel with the exception of the fact that it can be a cruise. I would pick St. John in the US Virgin Islands and then go to Hawaii and then to Alaska. Then it would … Continue reading Distance Learning Day 4
It’s weird not being at school, it’s a really strange feeling. I’ve never had great routines, I’m just not that kind of person. But, with school, there was always a reason for me to get up some time between the 7’oclock hour. Early mornings. But since there is no school, nothing to get up for, … Continue reading Distance Learning; Day 1
It has been awhile since we have been to school, but I have to admit I have been having fun while being home and not in school. My family has been doing well and rarely leaving the house. I have been going outside a lot. Going on walks with my family and my french bulldog. … Continue reading Distance Learning Day 1
Note: I know this is a controversial topic, with most people (as far as I know) supporting the other side of this topic. Please only post constructive feedback or logical arguments against my reasoning. And yes, I do, for the most part, support the side I’m presenting. Ok, yesterday feels like a complete failure. So instead, … Continue reading Distance Learning Journal Post 1 (Day 3)
Everything that is going on right now feels so surreal. It’s crazy to think that we were all laughing it off and joking around about this before, but now it is declared a national emergency and there are thousands and thousands of cases everyday. It tears me apart knowing that people are dying from this … Continue reading Distance Learning Day 1
I have two cats (Sugar and Pepper… both are girls) . They are basically my children. A few years ago my family and I set up a pen in my backyard. Not like a 2 by 2 foot square, but a full on playscape. It was initially made for my older cat Bruce, but once … Continue reading Distance Writing Day #2 — Julia Vassallo
So, it is now day 2 of Distanced Learning. If someone told me I’d be taking online classes right now, this time, last year, I’d think either they were lying, or the world was ending. But right now, I actually am in online school, and the world surely isn’t ending, but everything feels weird. Life … Continue reading Distanced Learning Day 2
Hi Mr.Jockers, I have not been enjoying my time off. I have just been bored out of my mind. I just wake up, brush my teeth, then on most days I go on a run in the morning with my dog Abby. I have tried new things like building my own hockey play area outside. … Continue reading Distance learning
Of course, with the current situation, I can understand why they would close schools, but in my opinion, everyone is simply overreacting. Yes, while we should take precautions and should quarantine and treat people, I do believe that many people are panicking way too much, especially with the panic buying and stores getting cleared out. … Continue reading Distance Learning Day 1: COVID-19 And The Economy
