Christmas is all about celebrating and being together with your family. The Norway Elementary has great Christmas cheer! They decorated every hallway from the floor to the ceiling. When ever i walk threw there it brings me happiness seeing all the work they have done just for the spirit of the holiday! I think that the whole school should be as festive as the elementary it will get people more excited for the holidays! Have a Merry Christmas!!
Coding is something that is going to become more and more in high demand. A lot of what we use today is created with coding, for example Facebook and video games! I completed the code.org challenge, and surprisingly I became very interested in it! I was skeptical at first thinking it was a bunch of boring letters and numbers you'd have to use to create programs, but it is much more then that! You can create what you want, and can tell a program exactly what you want it to do and when to do it! Its amazing the technology these days, and I think coding is very important in that it makes everything run correctly. There is a a push for coding in high school because this generation is growing up with technology and the more people in this field the better. I signed the pledge page because i am interested in coding and I think if more schools offered coding classes more people would be interested too!
Nelson Mandela passed away December 5th 2013 the age of 95. Nelson was known for many things that make him well known today and makes his death tragic. Nelson was the first black president in South Africa, he was president from 1994 to 1999. While president Nelsons government focused on getting rid of Apartheid, which is racial segregation, by tackling racism, poverty, and inequality. Because of his ambition to get rid of Apartheid he was sent to prison for 27 years. Eventually after 27 years because the world protested this got Nelson Mandela released from prison! Nelson Mandela is a legacy and wont be forgotten!
