PLN 6

While searching for an article worth reading I found one titled Iraq violent death rates 'plunge' . I personally thought this was a huge improvement from what has happened in Iraq. Sadly 884 civilians were killed last month but that was half a drop from close almost 1,600 civilians. Maybe the extra 30,000 troops were somewhat successful on the war on terror. Also more good news that there were 62 U.S. fatalities which is good because that is the lowest since July 2006.

Although these successes of lower death rates in Iraq the political issues are still in very bad condition, There are many fears that with the extra troops there will soon be escalating violence again. But for now let’s enjoy our 33% death rate drop and keep fighting the war on terror.

Good presentation, every thing you did was well, except you could have made more eye contact with the crowd and not just Mrs.Smith. Besides that good job.

Sean you did a really good job! you got everyones attention and you sounded so confident. You did a really good job at relating to the subject and keeping great eye contact! Great job!

Sean! You did a relly good job but I think you need to talk a little louder and slower. Other than that you did super! I like how you related a lot of your entries to things around you and what they affected. You also used big and good words. Good job!

You did a good job on making eye contact but refering to your notes. Wow that's pretty powerful that you had family members that died in the Holocaust. Maybe talk a little slower and not just keep going on about a thought. You made your presentation very interesting and not just listening to you read an article. Great Job!

Sean! Good job talking about the articles. Good job looking at the class and not just your paper. And I agree with how people get really offended really easily. Good job.

Sean I think you did an excellent job with your presentation! I really liked how each of your entries all related to each other! Very well done!

DennisRocks said...

Good job Sean, I agree with all your points. The holocost did happen and we should remember the people who suffered in those camps. Also, the cartoonist ordeal was very amusing. The world is so unforgiving!

Josh TS said...

You knew what you were saying however you werent 100% prepaired. I think you could have made more eye contact instead of reading off your paper. Other than that excelent job.

seand said...

Sean, I like how all of your entries were related. You did a good job relating them to yourself. You did a good job talking to the audience and explaining your articles.

Sean, you did such a good job on summarizing your blogs, you had good contact with your audience. I liked how you related your points to yourself and how you didn't make it boring, but interesting. You know alot of information about your articles.

laurenp said...

I like how you put you own personallity in your presentation and how you gave eye contact with your audiance. How you knew exactly what to say and didn't need to read off your paper.
Great Job!

Sean, you did a great job on connecting yourself to the article and keeping eye contact with the audiance. You had your presentation ready and organized for the class to hear and you had the class involved. I hope that you keep up the good work.

I agree that he shouldnt be a leader and you spoke clearly and loud and you knew a lot about what you were saying

Sean, it is very interesting that the ambassador or some other leader had said that the holocaust was not real. How could he say something like that in an American school. It is really weird how that a swedish cartoonist is in hiding for a cartoon about Muhamid, and Pakistan is looking for him.Your blogs are really good and well thought out. GREAT JOB! Answer to your queation: I think we should lay low before jumping into war. I don't think we should try to give them a reason to get those countries with nuclear weapons, any reason to use them againt us.

Good job on incorporating all of your PLNs into your presentation. The war in Iraq is a huge deal to all of us, and I thought it was cool that most of your PLNs related to the war.
Your presentation was great, so I don't really see anything you need to work on, but good job on askig us the question about Iran, I know it made me think, at least.

alenav said...

Sean, I like how you connected our articles to your personal views and opinions. Really good eye contact, I learned a lot from your presentation. I think it would have been a little better if you spoke a little louder but otherwise good job!
