Welcome to my first post. My name is Saarah Juman-Welch, and I am a junior at South Broward High School. Today was my second day in this class, and I cannot wait to learn more.
What We Did
On Monday, August 12, my teacher, Ms. Pistocchi, introduced herself and went over the class rules and expectations. She then had the entire class stand up and get their first-day packets. After sitting back down, she reviewed the AICE exams and informed us of what would be happening throughout the school year.
Later on, Ms. Pistocchi broke us up into groups of 2–4 people for a first-day activity. Said activity involved each group creating a persuasive, informative, or entertaining essay detailing what they did over the summer. My group was assigned persuasion and wrote about a trip to Busch Gardens Tampa, Volcano Bay in Orlando, bowling, learning to drive. During the last 30 minutes of class, each group had to present and see if the audience could guess what category their essay fell into. That was all we did on Monday.
Next, on Wednesday, August 14, our entire class had to make their Blogger accounts and work on our first post. Sadly, our school computers are very slow and have many issues. We spent the entire class period attempting to create our accounts and blogs.
Firstly, our computers have horrible service and work incredibly slowly. So, starting up the computers took ages. Then we had to log into our Gmail accounts. Next, we made Blogger accounts. That part took the longest and caused the most trouble because most of the students, myself included, kept getting error messages. Eventually, after having to log out of all my accounts, closing all applications, and restarting the computer, I was able to log back in. I then made my first blog post. Which brings us to this point.
What I Learned
Monday and Wednesday were not much of learning days. However, I did learn how to make a blog and post it. That was all for my first two days in AICE Media Studies.
